Congratulations! Your group interview must of went extremely well!
It's so exciting to be starting a new job! I'm sure you will love working in child care once you get into the swing of things!
The following article may have some useful strategies you can consider:

Thankyou so much Lorina

I did well in the group interview i surprised myself but it sure did help seeing the link you sent me about group interviews because ive never been to one so thankyou again
It is a brand new centre and they said that on the first week we could be setting up the rooms + taking parents on tours. I am really nervous because i have not done anything like this before. I get really shy and stumble on what to do and my words. I really want to do well because its such an amazing company and i love children.

Wow, a brand new centre! That's fantastic! New rooms, new resources, all new staff! Love working at a new centre as you can be there at the start to steer it in the right direction and create a high standard... I understand it can be nerving to talk to parents but once you do a couple you get the hang of it... I added my response in the topic you created on parent inductions so yeah you can check those ideas out...
Enjoy!
