STAFF PROFILE - WELFARE ASSISTANT


ANA TAVARES


I BELIEVE CHILD EDUCATION AND PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH GO HAND IN HAND. A CHILD NEEDS TO BE HEALTHY TO BE WELL EDUCATED AND WHEN YOU ARE EDUCATED YOU UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING HEALTHY.

After qualifying as a nurse in general, psychiatric, community and midwifery,  I worked in hospitals in the medical, surgical, and paediatric wards as well as at an infertility/obstetric  clinic.  More recently, I worked at an International Medical, Travel and Security Risk Assessment company, where I specialised in Occupational Health nursing within the medical fitness field. I have always loved working with children and am extremely excited about and looking forward to working at BSL.

 ABOUT MS TAVARES

I was born in Portugal and emmigrated to South Africa when I was only 3 years old.  I decided to return to Portugal together with my son to spend some valuable and precious time with my elderly parents and my family. I am looking forward to travelling and exploring the country, meeting new people and learning new things about Portugal, the people and the culture.
