Dedicated educator with expertise in early childhood development.
My name is Shaista Jainarain, and I am a passionate educator specializing in early childhood development. With a diploma in Early Childhood Development and a TEFL Level 5 certification, I have dedicated my career to nurturing young minds and fostering a love for learning. My experience spans various roles, including teaching toddlers and preschoolers, where I have successfully created engaging learning environments that cater to the developmental needs of children.
Throughout my career, I have worked in diverse educational settings, including Parkside Primary School, where I taught Afrikaans to Grade 4 and 5 students, and served as a Grade R teacher for seven years. My commitment to education is reflected in my ongoing studies towards an Education Diploma, which further enhances my teaching skills and knowledge. I believe in the importance of creating a supportive and stimulating atmosphere for children, and I strive to make a positive impact in their lives.
