Claire Harvey was born in South Brent on the edge of Dartmoor, but moved to East Devon at an early age. Here, her family run a dairy farm at Musbury near Axminster and Claire looks back fondly at her childhood years, growing up in this friendly community.<\/p>\n
\u2018I especially remember my early years at Musbury Primary School in the early 1990s, and this has probably led to my choice of a career in childcare. After leaving Woodroffe School in Lyme Regis I spent some time travelling through France and Spain. I\u2019m now 22 and have just completed a two-year National Diploma course in childcare, at Exeter College, with work placement. I hope to find employment in a local nursery; I\u2019m quite creative and like to make things with the kids \u2013 we made a cardboard train this week.<\/p>\n
Living in the countryside has heightened my concern over conservation issues and I\u2019m keen to promote the safeguarding of natural resources, through recycling and the use of environmentally friendly materials. I tend to use alternative rather than conventional therapies, especially herbal remedies. I\u2019ve worked part-time in Ganesha, a local health shop, for about seven years.<\/p>\n
I love animals; I\u2019m passionate about cats. I enjoy reading and walking in the countryside, particularly in the area around Lyme Regis. I also have an interest in photography.\u2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
