"The Green House has been the best organisation I could choose for my internship. The staff supported me throughout the experience and gave me constructive feedback about how I could improve my interactions with children. I have learnt a lot about children's emotions and needs at the Green House and I feel I've grown as a person after this internship." - Ilaria, former intern
