In a clip shared to TikTok (@kitkat200030), the 23-year-old uni graduate discussed the things she's "learnt to hate" as a childcare practitioner.

And there's one type of clothing she can't stand parents dressing their toddlers in because it makes her job so much harder.

Revealing all, she says: "Children coming in wearing dungarees so it's hard to change nappies."

Next up, she reveals the type of shoes she dreads seeing on the little ones.

Sharing a snap of a pair of Converse, she notes: "High top shoes are so hard to get on their feet."

According to the nursery worker, there's another bugbear that really gets on her nerves: "Tonnes of unnamed hats, scarves and gloves which always get lost."

And, if you're a parent who sends your kids into nursery with a toy from home, then you may just want to think again.

Discussing another annoyance of hers, she said: "Toys from home which causes arguments between children."

Last but not least, she also told how she can't stand: "Children who come to nursery with all in one coat which takes 10 years to put on to go to the garden."

The nursery worker captioned the post: "Most annoying things about the job."

The post quickly went viral, racking up over 202k views and several comments - with very mixed responses.

"Agree with most except the all in ones. There’s a reason they’re worn and it saves changing every child's clothes after garden time," wrote one.

A second penned: "The shoes tho - what’s wrong with simple Velcro shoes for 2-year-olds?"

A third commented: "And once you’ve put that coat on, they always need a wee."

Meanwhile, a fourth noted: "Just started working in a preschool & my son starts next month. I’m labelling EVERYTHING! And even I hate putting his puddle suit on!"

Another chimed in: "Agree to them all bar the all in one, I would rather put them on then change all the children’s clothes once they come in from the garden messy."

A further agreed: "The worst is dungarees when they’ve got layers of trousers on and pull ups."

And one more added: "I’m guilty about the toy from home but the fight to get him out of the house with no toy is a challenge I’ve not won yet. Luckily nursery handles it."
