After School Care Stroud

| Im a 24y/o student about to finish my BA at Bristol University and am looking for full time work from May 15th onward. I have been caring for children since I was 13 in multiple settings including Barnardos after school club for children with extra learning needs. I have been an au pair in Italy, looking after two children under 10 during the weekdays, picking them up from school, taking them to activities, cooking their dinner, and putting them to bed. I have looked after children of all ages up to 12, and have a special fondness for babies and toddlers which others can find challenging. I am confident with children of all ages and have a very open, understanding, and creative engagement with children which I believe helps them to flourish with self-assurance and feel confident with important boundary setting for a strong personal development. Please do get in touch if you’d like to have any further conversation :)

| Hello, my name is Lydia and I am 21 years old. I am currently in my 2nd Year of University studying to be a Children’s Nurse. I have previously worked in a Nursery and After-School club, working with children at a range of ages. I am first-aid trained, DBS checked and can care for children with additional and complex needs. I am looking for flexible hours to fit around studying and placement, however have my availability far in advance.

| Experience: I looking after children in 2016 and have enjoyed spending time with and looking after children ever since. These children were aged 2 - 7, and I’ve also cared for my own sibling after school through the ages of 8 - 15. My usual duties while caring for children include: Cooking balanced meals (that are also fun and inviting for children), bedtime routines, helping with schoolwork, playtime, and cleaning. (I've put 2 years exp. as I my eight years experience was more 'as and when', so would be more equal to 2 years of full time experience). I also have experience with: Dogs, cats, Hamsters, Rodents, Fish and Birds. Duties usually include: Feeding, Walking, Cleaning and lots of cuddles and playtime! So am happy to care for the pets in your home also. More about me: I enjoy reading, writing, and am an aspiring actor. I currently work as an event medic and have First Aid and BSL qualifications. I love the outside and am happy to take children in my care on walks to the park or just to get some fresh air. I enjoy Disney and family animated films so spending an evening rewatching your child's favourite film four times in a row actually sounds like my ideal evening! I don't drink, smoke, or vape.

| Hi, I’m Rosa. I currently work part time as a play worker in breakfast, after school and holiday clubs through ‘All my friends Childcare’. Here I look after 5 to 11 year olds in brockworth and Barnwood. So far I have training in child protection, food and hygiene and protect duty. I will be expanding my learning over the coming months. I regularly look after two primary school aged children, one of which has special educational needs (SEN). I have learnt how to support both children’s unique needs and created a predictable routine they are both familiar with. A key part of this has been working with and learning from their parent’s who of course know them best. I have also developed a range of activities that help if they’re overstimulated, frustrated or uncooperative. The adaptability and patience I have learnt through this experience means that I feel confident in helping multiple children simultaneously, I am able to appropriate my actions to their needs and figure out how they best communicate. Moreover, I really enjoy caring for them. We read stories, play games and get creative. I find it such a rewarding thing to do and the fun far outweighs the challenges.

| Hi, I’m Michaela, I’m 24 and I’m looking for a little work on the side of my current job. I am a qualified primary and early years teacher, but I currently do supply to gain more experience and continue professional development. I often take up nursery work during school holidays, but would like to take up baby sitting too. During term time I am available to babysit Wednesday afternoons and Monday-Friday weeknights (after school) and some weekends if asked. However, during the holidays I am available to babysit during week days.

| I worked in a nursery for two years, I traveled between the baby room, toddler room and ore-school room, I also used to pick up the after school children and do activities with them until collection time. In the nursery I would plan fun learning activities for the children and ensure that they were engaging. I had 6 key children so I had to ensure they were meeting their next steps and if they weren’t I would plan activities to help them along. I recently just finished covering for another nanny who was off sick. I was there for just over a month. I did the school runs in the morning and afternoon for the eldest boy and during the day I planned fun activities and days out for the youngest.

I worked doing pastoral work in doing three or four sessions a week with children of different ages in the school. I would do barrier games with the children, and it helped me to start forming relationships.I was offered a part time job at the school as a SEN teaching assistant which I have gained a lot of experience from.I run after school club in the week, I am able to spend extra time with the children, and play games with them outside, and make them snacks and help form a good relationship with them. I worked in a school setting with children for seven months, I am also the eldest child in my family so have looked after my two younger sisters on many many occasions. In this time I have worked closely with children who find learning challenging, or have complex needs and learning needs to be looked at in a different way for them. I have also worked closely with the class teaching assistant in year 4, and have started to help run intervention groups, and done a handful myself which has helped me with activities for children and making them up myself.
