About me

My professional background is in childcare, with eight years of experience working in nurseries and privately for families. I hold a Level 3 Early Years Educator qualification and a Level 1 Childcare Diploma. I absolutely love working with children and creating a warm, engaging environment where they can learn, grow, and express themselves. I enjoy reading stories, encouraging role play, and helping children develop their creativity through fun, hands-on activities. I speak Romanian, Spanish, and English and always strive to make learning both enjoyable and meaningful.

Elia Ciucurita Elia is a nursery assistant and has a key group of children. Elia is kind, considerate and professional in her approach. She is reliable and works well with children, understanding their needs. Elia plans learning and play experiences for individual children in her key group and also experiences as a group. If a particular child in her group shows an interest in something, Elia will use this as a learning experience and plan an activity, continuing to expand on that activity. She is great at her job.

— Sofie

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.
