From Temporary to Permanent
“I started doing temporary cover work through Manaba while studying for my Level 3. The variety of nurseries I worked in gave me amazing experience. When I qualified, one of the nurseries offered me a permanent room leader position! Manaba supported me throughout my journey and I couldn't be happier.”
