| Are you able to care for children whose main language is neither English nor Welsh? I am always happy to adapt my communication for children who are new to English or Welsh. Being bilingual myself, I know firsthand how to connect with language learners and help them develop their English skills. I always try to learn some basic words in the child's first language and look forward to working closely with parents to support their transition. |
