| My name is Alex I currently run a small childrens swim school from my parents home which is mainly after school hours, I teach children form the age of 1-upwards I have also worked in a nursery and lifeguard at my local pool, as I love working with children I’d like to do something that is more flexible around my little school I run, I hold my own dbs and I’m first aid trained.

| I have worked with children for over 1 year at after school clubs, childminders and nurseries. I have also volunteered at schools and Brownies. I have experience will all ages and love working with all ages, I also have paediatric first aid. I am bubbly, enthusiastic and love to read, dance and sing with the children! I will be starting my Level 3 Childcare this year and currently work at a nursery full time.

| I have volunteered to supervise children in multiple primary schools, to be a general support and also to help teach art, English and maths in less advantaged schools. I have cooking experience within my school, choosing to complete a cooking class every Thursday afternoon in my last year of school and enjoying it generally at home. I have also done some babysitting for children aged 6-8 and have been around younger children due to friends siblings, helping them and older children through taking on leadership roles within my school in committees, CCF and sport. I have completed first aid courses multiple times both in and outside school. Being on a gap year I have a lot of times and means to be around and support children, taking them to clubs, cooking and school runs. I also feels being a younger applicant allows me to bring a different energy and be creative and imaginative around the children.

| I am a 20 year old student from Cambridge, currently studying at Swansea University. I love to work with children, having a current part- time job running an after school club local to me. I have completed my first aid, a child protection course, food hygiene course and a babysitting course as well as having had experience with babysitting. I also have a DBS on top of this. I have previously been a nanny for a 9 month old, 2 and 4 year old as well as volunteered in local primary schools.

I am a well-mannered and a responsible nanny, with a great deal of experience and interest in children and their development. Emotionally mature with an ability to develop close relationships with both children and families. Undertaking related childcare qualifications throughout my career has strengthened my knowledge and assisted me in acquiring a good perception of child development and educational requirements. Over my 14 years of experience in childcare I have been a full time nanny, run an after school club and worked in a nursery environment with a wide range of families and children of ages ranging from 6 weeks to 12 years.

| I grew up with 2 older siblings who both had kids when I was very young. I started helping them out when I visited by changing their nappies, reading them stories, putting them to bed etc. I am now 19 years old and my nephews are 6 and 10, now that I am older I look after them a lot more thoroughly. I’ll spend weeks at a time at my sisters house while she’s away for work taking the kids to and from school, to their after school activities, packing their lunches, cooking them food, bathing them and helping them with their homework. I love my nephews to pieces and they are my absolute world, looking after them brings me so much joy even if they are super cheeky! Because I was so young when they were born I wanted to look after children just like how my sisters looked after their own. Knowing that I could look after children as a job is something I have dreamt of since I was tiny. I have grown up so quickly and I am extremely mature for my age mainly due to the fact I grew up in a family where I was the youngest out of everyone.

| My name is Lauryn, I am a primary school teacher (KS1). I have 6 years of nanny experience. I love working with children of all ages. I am also DBS and PVG registered. I am available for weekend and evening babysitting, as well as school holiday cover. Throughout my undergraduate degree I worked as a part-time nanny whilst studying at university providing before and after school care for several lovely families around the area. I believe my years as a nanny has provided a lot of experience and helped me realise that working with children is the career I wish to pursue. I spent the summer of 2016 as an Au Pair in Perth, Australia caring for two girls aged 2 and 4. I feel like this gave me a lot of hands on experience with children. I was also one of two Adult Leaders at St Ninian's Rainbow Unit. I found this very rewarding and thoroughly enjoy my involvement, and always have through my 5 years of assisting Girl Guiding units. Finally, despite being young I have a lot of experience with looking after children and I think that I can bring a fun and youthful approach, which in the past I think has made it easy to connect well with children.

| I have worked in childcare for 5 years, I started of looking after children after school between the ages of 4-11 and did so for 2 years. For the past 3 years, coming up to 4 I have been working in a nursery I specifically care for children agreed 3-4 but also have lots of experience working with children from the ages of 1 and up. I am qualified in level 2 early years practitioner and currently studying towards level 3. Also hold a paediatric first aid certificate.

| I have very extensive experience of working with children and youth of all ages, from different countries and cultural backgrounds. I have run after-school clubs for many years, been a school governor for 13 years, a trustee for a children's charity. I am educated at university level. I have had formal pastoral responsibility for children and youth at a professional level for many years. I love storytelling & imaginative play with younger children and teaching crafts to children under 16. I have had two children of my own (now grown up!) and fostered two children. I am first aid trained, have Level 3 Food Hygiene Certificate.
