Being an Early childhood educator 👩‍🏫

Hello Zesties!

Time flies and I’m already in the early childhood sector for 5 years 😮. Long story short, I failed my O levels and had to go to ITE. Even so, with my grades, they only offered me 3 different courses. One of which is of course, early childhood as well as beauty and I think digital marketing or something like that.

The reason why I didn’t enrol myself into beauty course because I had a 2nd degree burnt on my hand while working part time and I didn’t feel confident enough to go out and work in this line with those scars. ☹️

the HUGE reason why I took up early childhood educator was mainly because of my younger brother. He was diagnosed with slow brain development and we didn’t know how to communicate with him on all areas back then so often he was beaten by my parents ..

thankfully, after venturing into this course for 5️⃣ years, I learnt more about how children learn through play, communicating with them as well as understanding children with special needs and that’s when I realise that my younger brother has characteristics of mild autism as well.

So I guess you can say that my younger brother is my guiding light 😉✨
