Patient, nurturing childcare provider who loves creativity & fun.
| I have a multitude of both paid & volunteer experiences. I started babysitting when I was 13 & have worked with kids on & off ever since, from newborn to teenagers. I love playing, being creative with kids & watching them learn/grow. I love being able to have a positive influence on a child's life & love to nurture their creative, curious spirits. I have a gentle, caring & happy personality & a positive attitude. I am extremely patient & very adaptable to new situations. I hold qualities such as honesty, loyalty, understanding, patience & compassion for life with high regard. I thrive off of learning, making new relationships, living new experiences & maintaining a healthy/active lifestyle. Everyone has a different way of raising their children. When I first start working with a new family, I like to spend a bit of time getting to know the family dynamic, how it works & how I can best fit into that. I want to provide tailored care for children, through building an honest rapport & providing both fun leisure & educational activities in line with their interests. I think communication is the key to any successful relationship, so it is very important to always keep those lines of communication open whenever I work with a family.

I have experience in babysitting children ranging in age from 1 month to 12 years. I have a group of families that I babysit for on a regular basis. I also babysit at least once a month for my friend's 4 children who are 6, 3 and 2 year old twins. I volunteered as a befriender with a company that supports families in need of some extra help and have children under 5 years old. My most recent family had 2 year old twins. I helped take the children on outings, swimming, to the park and also playing with them in the house or garden. Although I have stopped volunteering I now babysit regularly for the twins. I volunteered at a children's drama club for 2 years. There could be up to 25 kids each week ranging in age from 6-12 years. I helped produce plays, arrange talent shows and sing Christmas songs at nursing homes. I am friendly, fun and responsible. I am also very reliable and I never let people down. I have my own car so travel and times are not a problem. I am available evenings after 6pm and any time at weekend. I also have a PVG that was done in February 2013. I am more than happy to meet up and have a chat beforehand where times and prices can be discussed. Hope to hear from you soon!
