Author:  Shahan Naik | May 1st, 2022

I am a Creche Teacher, and it is my personal interest and passion to help young children learn and achieve – which is one of the most heartwarming benefits of being a creche teacher at Sethu!

So, what does it take to really work with children? What attributes do you need to be a great teacher?

1) Teaching –
Helping children learn in new ways or more simply in ways to suit them.
As a teacher, I use different methods with different students, depending on their learning style, age and ability. Using the various approaches will also help the other children to develop patience, understanding and interpersonal skills for communication with of all age groups.

2) Patience –
Working as a creche teacher gives me daily practice with being patient! Dealing with a room full of young sometimes noisy or cranky children may seem overwhelming at first, but it won’t be long before everyone is having fun and learning – if you can keep your cool.

3) Creativity –
Children are not afraid to think outside the box, so being around kids all day teaches me to conform less and nurture my own imagination and creativity.

4) Feeling love and appreciated –
Children love having company, and that includes me. Interactions with children are fun and comforting – it is wonderful how a mutual affection grows when you are with young children whose main agenda is fun not stress!

5) Dealing with Parents –
This is the most challenging aspect of running the creche. Of course, every parent wants the best for their child… sometimes they forget that so do all the other parents who entrust their child to my care. Children are all treated equally – there is no special individual treatment – for me all children are special. 

6) Fit as a fiddle!
You need to be physically fit to keep up with youngsters who are full of questions and seemingly never-ending energy! Physical exhaustion can kick in if you don’t look after yourself and keep your fitness levels high.
