Notes
I'm Layla, 25 years old and live in Appleby. A few years ago after having my first baby girl I started cleaning in a nursery. Here is where I fell in love with the idea of being able to help children develop, thrive and be a big part in their lives. By cleaning in the nursery I was quickly able to build relationships with the children and loved interacting with them. I was then offered an apprenticeship in that particular nursery in 2019 working towards a level 3 qualification. I loved working in this nursery as I was able to spend plenty of time with my little girl Lottie, whilst studying and learning my dream job role.

In January 2020 I moved to Smisby in the Preschool room to further my education within the job role. I love being able to expand my knowledge and develop my teaching skills further. In July 2020 I was then transferred into the Toddler room. It has been a great experience to be able to interact with the different age groups and its been a great help in preparing myself for my little boy Eliott who was born in March this year.

I’m currently on maternity leave and I’m enjoying every minute of it being able to spend quality time with my two babies but I can’t wait to come back and get back into the swing of things and to see them spending time with their friends at Smisby :)

Hopefully before I return I will have finished my level 3 qualification and will be looking to go on to higher levels of study(fingers crossed).
