18yo uni student, experienced in babysitting children aged 0-5
|
Hi, my name is Kerri. I am 18 years old, and am about to start university in Sydney. I have babysitter one 4 year old girl every few months since she was born in 2015, and can provide a reference from the mother if needed. Therefore, I understand and know how to change nappies, play with babies, toilet-train and entertain toddlers without using the TV and electronics. I can also cook pretty well as I am living away from home and must do the cooking myself. Further, having just graduated from high school, I would be able to help older children (e.g. primary school) with homework and any other school-related dilemmas. In school, I often had to be responsible for people much younger than me, and there was one circumstance in which I had to 'teach' a class of grade 2s for an hour or so whilst their teacher was busy when I was in grade 11 (2018). I see myself as very responsible, strict but fun, and I would never to anything to place them in danger. I love kids very much and love being around them, so I feel babysitting would be a great experience for me. Am willing to have a lower hourly rate as I don't have much experience, but the website won't let me lower it beneath $18.
