Sara Prerad
Nursery Practitioner
Zürich
Summary
I’m a caring and motivated individual with hands-on experience looking after children, both in my family and through short-term placements. Currently completing an apprenticeship in the Canton of Zurich. I’m now looking to take the next step and start a meaningful career in childcare in the UK. I’m excited to keep learning and growing in a supportive, team-focused setting like Busy Bees, where I can bring my love for working with children, flexibility, and strong people skills.
