I speak Romanian, Spanish, and English and always strive to make learning both enjoyable and meaningful.

As we are based in a private day nursery, Elia works with her 'key group' children on a regular basis - usually about 4-6 children aged between 2-4 years old. Elia has a friendly personality and gets on well with both her team members and the children. She is responsible and dependable and has an excellent time-keeping record. Elia has a mature character. She is patient, caring and kind and has a real enthusiasm for working in the childcare industry. She does a variety of activities with the children - creative play - painting, collage work, colouring; outdoor play, role play/dressing up, singing, story-telling and dancing.
