Amelia
Bournemouth UniversityBSc (Hons) Children's and Young People's NursingHi! My name is Amelia, I’m a second year Children’s and Young People’s Nursing Student. I’m really enjoying the course and my nursing journey so far. Please feel free to message with any questions or queries you may have! Anna
Bournemouth UniversityBSc (Hons) Children's and Young People's NursingHi! My name is Anna and I am a third year Children and Young People’s nursing student. I am loving my nursing journey so far! I look forward to answering any questions or queries you may have. Asiya
University of EssexChildhood StudiesGrowing up, I was privileged enough to only be surrounded by a lot of children within my family but also witness what children go through in the society, the mischief that they can get into and the social rejection that they might face. This made me develop an interest in children’s rights and their welfare. I have learnt more about social justice and child protection while studying at the university of Essex. My career goal is to work in the field of community development especially for the protection of children and creating safe environments for them as well as addressing the causes of criminal activities from a young age. I love reading and this has always been a way of keeping me informed as well as how I can be motivated to find new ways to solve different issues. I am interesting, I promise 😁. Caisey
University of ChesterBN Children's NursingI am a first year children's nursing student but have interests and some knowledge of all fields. I am a previous A-Level Chemistry, Biology and Maths student. I have a passion for helping others in any way that I can and I plan to work my way up in the healthcare sector and I believe nursing is a great place to start! Emily
University of ChesterBN Children's NursingIn the future I want to qualify and start working for CAMHS. I am currently studying paediatric nursing and love the course so far. I have a passion for dancing and going to the gym to keep myself fit. Makenzie
University of ChesterBN Children's NursingHi!! I am Makenzie and I am studying nursing at UoC, I am currently doing an integrated master's in children's and mental health nursing; I love my degree, I think it is super unique and provides a very needed outlook into health care. I love movies and music and travelling. Having a social life outside of nursing is something that I prioritise because it is such a challenging degree. I am originally from Birmingham so I completely understand the stress of moving to a new city; it was difficult but completely worth it and I feel that being in Chester has really helped me become who I am today!
