Case study

Name: Michele Wright Company: Tapestry Holidays

Company: Tapestry Holidays

Age: 37

Location visited: Fethiye, Turkey

Job title: Nanny

Typical day: In 2000 I was employed by Tapestry Holidays to set up three creches in various holiday resorts around Turkey and continued to work for the company for three years, running the creche at Ocakkoy in the Fethiye region. The creche opened at 9.30am for the children and the nannies arrived at least 15 minutes earlier to make sure everything was set up. Activities ranged from simple painting, drawing and gluing to making masks and face painting. We took the children swimming and on nature walks around the area. Parents collected their children at 5.30pm. There was an evening session on Friday, when a pizza and video party was sometimes held for the older children.
