What is the role of a nursery nurse assistant?
Im a deputy manager of a nursery and the nursery assistants where i work do exactly the same job role as a nursery nurse, we are all treated as equals. although as an apprentice you wouldnt be required to do the role of a nursery assistant within my setting you would not be counted in ratios, you would learn through observation and hands on experience. Always insist on working with all age ranges because many people have preferences. i love working with the older children but i have colleagues that prefer babies the more experience with all the better best thing to do is enjoy your role and be keen to learn and develop the most the staff could ask for is for you to use your initiative join in and be enthusiastic, the staff will make you welcome and you’ll soon fit it.
