Things have been difficult ever since I had to leave my father's house. I had a newborn and had to ask my sister to help me. I am so grateful to get support from Beam to get into work and support my new family. I have a young baby and would love the opportunity to support my family, and also gain some independence in the long-term. We are currently staying at my sister's house but there is not enough room for us, and I've been unable to find work so far.
I would love to work with children and look after them as a job. I've been helping out my sister looking after my niece and nephew, and it's made me realise I'd love to work in childcare! I think people would describe me as caring which is why I think working a nursery would be a perfect fit for me.
I speak English, Urdu, Patwali and Punjab, and in college I used to mentor people who were struggling with English. My long-term career goal is to do the same sort of thing, and I'd love to really help people.
