Meet the Team @Bryn
Meet Bridie
I have been part of the Clwb Y Ddraig team for 4 years.
I love spending time with my family and making memories, I also like listening to music and playing football.
I have a big family, I have 6 brothers and 4 sisters so there is always lots of fun. I have a daughter and I love having fun with her while she is playing and learning new things.
I love playing outside and exploring the mud kitchens, children's play is very exciting and I love exploring their imaginations with them.
Meet Christina
I have had lots of different roles within the childcare sector. Teaching assistant, volunteer in mother and baby groups, worked in a wrap around and in a day nursery but this job role suits me perfectly.
I have three beautiful children. I love watching them grow and going on adventures with them. We love walks on the beach and watching the sea as the tide comes in. We love exploring the woods and sitting in the trees and having a picnics.
My favourite play Memory as a child was role play. I loved playing house. I also loved playing playing a game of yatzee along with other board games with my mum on the weekends.
Play is the perfect way to explore and express your self........ it's where dreams come true.
I enjoy watching the children grow and develop new skills. I love watching their little eyes light up when they have a new idea and it's my job to help bring play opportunities for them. I love bringing their magical imaginations to life and getting stuck into the play. I love talking to all the children and listening to their incredible ideas.
Meet Bethanie
I’ve worked in numerous childcare and play settings including nurseries, schools and play clubs since the age of 16.
I love dancing, singing and spending time with my family and friends.
I have a little boy called Reuben who loves farm animals, cars and the park! I also have a dog called Doots who loves the beach.
My favourite play Memory from childhood is making potions in my bampis allotments with my brothers using plant pots, soil and anything else we could find suitable.
Play allows children to express themselves in a fun environment, it’s the freedom to do what they want whilst also learning and developing new skills.
I love watching the children learn and grow through play, watching them achieve new goals and develop new skills.
