“I was very sceptical about leaving my old job but I’m so I glad I took the leap and applied for my position at Apollo. Best thing I ever did, I get to spend more time with my children and watch them grow. Everyone is so friendly and easy to approach if you have a problem.”

About This Role

Our client is a happy and engaging little girl who enjoys books, stories, music, sensory play, and watching her favourite shows, including Bluey, Disney, and Peppa Pig. She also loves singing and listening to her Toniebox.
