As 2022 came to a close, so did my meaningful journey with Seni Children’s Discovery House. This chapter began in May 2022, when I first joined as an intern. What started as a placement soon blossomed into something more, and I chose to extend my contract—a decision that spoke louder than words about the fulfilling experience I had there.


Throughout my time at CDH, I was surrounded by role-model leaders, supportive colleagues, empathetic parents, joyful children, and a nurturing environment that continuously shaped me, both personally and professionally. I had the opportunity to engage with people from diverse backgrounds, children with different needs, parents with different expectations, and colleagues who carried wisdom from varied experiences. Each interaction taught me valuable lessons in empathy, adaptability, and communication.


The journey was not without its challenges, but I cherish every moment—both the tough times and the sweet memories. Saying goodbye to the children, who showered me with pure love, and to their parents, who expressed heartfelt appreciation, was one of the hardest parts of leaving. I am equally grateful to my supervisors and colleagues, whose guidance and support made me feel truly valued and inspired every day.


Looking back, I am thankful to Seni Children’s Discovery House for giving me some of the fondest memories of my career journey so far. This experience will always remain close to my heart.
