There's a very interesting balance between keeping the children calm and happy but also creating plenty of challenge and moments where they have to deal with the stuff of life. Such a fascinating developmental stage. #EarlyYears

It really is great fun to work as bank staff with the children at preschool! They're so lovely with their little personalities already in full force. Hard work for sure but it's an honour to be part of supporting them to develop. ♥️ #EarlyYears
