| As part of my teacher training, I have worked in both infant and junior schools. As well as teaching whole classes, I have done small group and individual work and have a good relationship with students of all ages. I also have experience working in a pre-school setting from before my course. This means that I can be particularly useful with any homework help as well as looking after your child! Because I am working in a school during term-time, I am available after school, weekends and over school holidays. I am more than happy to provide references if needed and discuss anything else with you. Thanks!

| I am a 24 year old with extensive experience working with children in a variety of settings. I would describe myself as caring, responsible and confident. With my work experience and study being centred around education, I have an in depth understanding of young peoples needs and behaviours. Having worked in 2 after school clubs as a senior play-worker and also as a pastoral coordinator in secondary and further education, I am accustomed to the different needs of children and young people. I would describe my practice as empathetic whilst understanding the role that boundaries play in a child's development. I am flexible with parental needs also. I have a play-centred philosophy whilst also understanding the importance of continual provision.

| From very young I have always known I wanted to work with children. I started with doing sports leaders at school which is teaching sports and planning indoor and outdoor activities to children aged 4 to 10. After school I did a 2 year Childcare and Education course at level 3 where I learnt how to support the learning and development of babies and early years and how to care for their every need. I then did a paediatric first aid course and got my certificate. When I finished my education I went to London and was employed as a nanny for the Royals of Emirates, where I looked after their 2 year old 24hours as I shared a room with the child and occasionally for their 1 year old. It was the best experience but unfortunately the family wanted to move to Dubai which they asked me to go with them but living abroad wasn't for me at the time. I then worked as a nursery practitioner and now believe I have all the knowledge of how to look after children, keeping them safe, helping with their learning and development, how to provide healthy and nutritious meals and snacks and how to care for their every need.

| Whilst at school, I done a lot of work helping younger children in after school clubs and volenteering in lessons during my free periods. Around this time I also became a scout leader, during which I had to do a lot of training on working with children and keeping them entertained. I've spent a lot of time leading activities, and helping the children lead activities to help improve their confidence.

| Hi ! I am a Graziella, 30 year old, studying English in Sheffield part time. I'm from Brazil. In my home country, I hold a degree in finance and have graduated in law.. I am looking for some babysitting work in the Sheffield to raise some extra founds. I am available in the morning and afternoon on weekdays. I follow the parents' instructions, but I also enjoy creating educational and recreational activities that promote the children's development. Most importantly, I possess the patience needed to understand and address the needs and behaviors of children.

| I am a patient, enthusiastic, hard-working individual. Looking after children comes naturally to me and I have always babysat for neighbors and friends. Having worked as a play worker at a breakfast club and after school club for primary school age children, I have developed my skills working with young people. Within this role I prepared meals, accompanied children to and from school, and would play with and organize activities for them. Whilst in this job, I discovered my love for working with children, and feel I learnt a lot about childcare during my time there. I also spent 2 months au-paring for a family in Spain, where I looked after 2 boys aged 8 and 10.

| Whilst at home I lived with three younger siblings, two brothers (15 and 5) and a sister (9). I was the go to babysitter in my area as I was always babysitting /cooking and caring for them on a regular basis and thoroughly enjoy spending time with them. I take them out all the time after school and was then introduced to a few other families from my sibling's school who approached my mum to ask if I would be able to work for them. I worked for one family in particular very regularly who lived in our village. This included looking after three boys (ages 4, 7 and 14) and a girl (aged 10). This always felt like more of a second family to me rather than a job. Working with children comes naturally to me and I find it really easy to get on with children and entertain them. I am punctual and trustworthy and am the type of person who will use initiative in difficult situations or challenges I am faced with. An example of this, would be whilst babysitting the children on a particularly lively day, we played our own version of 'Britain's Got Talent' taking turns to perform. This was a fun way of keeping the children occupied. I was often required to look after their cousins (1 and 3 years old). This meant being responsible for six children at a time, which was not an issue for me. I then moved to Sheffield Hallam University in 2015, and although I am studying, I have continued to expand my experience with children by taking on volunteer roles. I volunteer as an Appropriate Adult with SOVA where I ensure that young people's rights are protected throughout their process of the criminal justice system and I support them in a challenging time of their life. I have also been introduced to the National Youth Advocacy Service where I volunteer as an Independent Visitor to children in care by taking them out for the day and doing activities of their choice, providing them with support and stability.
