As part of our learning about the world of work,Carolyne Cerexhe joined us to give us an insight into her career as a health visitor.
She gave a very informative talk telling us all about her role and responsibilities. She explained that health visitors visit new families in their homes to check on baby development. She used very willing volunteers to demonstrate how to weigh a baby and young children as well as measuring growth. She shared how this is tracked in a child’s personal red book that all the boys and girls will have at home.
The children were eager to learn more and asked lots of questions such as necessary qualifications and training and the best parts of being a health visitor.
Thank you to Carolyne for taking the time to share her experience with us to help us learn about the world of and possible career choices for our future.
