been away

ok so I haven't posted for a while but I am really sorry, probably not best to post a down moods post then not return for a while but i'm fine.


it will be so much easier when I finally get my computer up and running at home, at the moment I have to write my posts here in the library on the computer or on my phone (and its a bit of a pain on my phone).


its not going to be a massive update just thought while i'm here in the library I will do a little post.


school holidays are nearly over thank the lord, although I have enjoyed spending time with my beautiful girls im more than ready for them to go back to school and me to start my new job!
MY NEW JOB!!!!
I really cant wait, I will be working in the special educational needs sector with children and young adults from 3-19yrs, I used to be a SENCO (special educational needs co-ordinator)   in my last job and did a lot of one-to-one work with children who had a special need, and now im going to a school specifically for children who need extra help. I love to make a difference and help children reach their full potential. I have worked within childcare for around 12 years and it has been amazing, going from a modern apprentice, to nursery practitioner,to, nursery nurse with children 18m-5yrs, to senior team leader with babies, to SENCO, to deputy manager as well as behaviour co-ordinator and safe-guarding lead.
working with children from 3 months up to school leaving age has been amazing now I am ready to work with children from 3 years right up to young adult of 19!.
one of the most rewarding parts of the job is helping a child reach their goal, weather it be helping a baby to smile and laugh, say their first word, walk, crawl, eat - right up to writing their own names, counting or even learning actions to a song.
another part I loved was the parents!!! it felt amazing to have a parent who really liked you and was comfortable enough to leave their 3 month old child with you as they popped off to work for the day. Assuring them that their child would be fine and its perfectly normal for them to cry when you leave but that they are in safe hands and they don't cry for long. i've had parents wonder how I got their child to eat a certain thing and how I got them to sleep so fast without their comforter and even ask me for advice on things. I have had children with loads of allergies and their parents be apprehensive about leaving them but then to be told a month later that they cant believe how far they have come along and how well they have done with their allergies.
looking after children is just a rewarding experience, you learn from them every day, and you have to prepare yourself for new challenges, I have faced ,many challenges over the years but I am still here to tell the tale.
if u need help you know where to find me
