My name is Chloe, I joined Building  Blocks in December 2024, and I have a passion for childcare, my previous experience was working as a private Nanny for children aged Birth to 16 years old. I love working with all age ranges as it requires different skill sets to support their individual needs. Being a nanny, my job roles were to change nappies, meal times, bedtime, naps during the day, playtime, which included going to the park, with a scooter or a bike, and swimming. One of my favourite activities is baking or cooking with the children, it’s fun, helps develop their cooking skills and encourages healthy eating from a young age. Seeing their little minds work with the activities is always my biggest joy! What is important to me, is to create activities through play, creating happy memories for the children, which allows their minds to expand and learn through play. Having fun through play is such a big thing, as it brings out different emotions and thoughts through the activity for the children. In my spare time I enjoy going for walks, I love woodlands and cabins, anything near lakes or water, spending time with my family and being out and about in nature with animals. Sunsets are something I enjoy the most! The views and taking in the beauty around you!
