I’m a 25 years old who lives in Dumfries. I am looking for weekend work/nights/during the holidays.
| I am a qualified primary teacher currently working in Dumfries. I have worked with children from aged 4 to 11. I enjoy teaching art, health and wellbeing and P.E. I currently teach in a learning centre supporting pupils with a range of additional support needs. I am happy to help with tutoring/homework if required. I have previously been an Aupair in Milan looking after 2 young girls for 1 year. During my time with the girls we enjoyed playing games, going out exploring and baking. I will plan activities based on child(rens) interests. Building a relationship with the child(ren) and family is an important part of the role to build trust and respect. I have experience communicating with parents through my current role.

First Year Primary Education Student looking for some work
| I am a First year student of MA Primary Education and the University of Glasgow (Dumfries Campus). Before school ended I did a couple hours of babysitting for a few family members and friends. However, my passion for working with children expanded when I went in HNC Early Education and Childcare. This course allowed me to understand many important aspects of a child’s early life and I as a babysitter, think I can provide as many of these as possible. I have a PVG that allows me to work with children under the ages of 16. Along with my course work I work at a local restaurant, at night at the weekends. I am primarily looking for someone who is looking for a babysitting a couple times a week, fitting with my timetable. I am a friendly, approachable girl and feel I could provide an outstanding service for yourself and children. At the minute, I am not available Thursday - Saturday night due to the restaurant but this will change as of February/March. Any other information you would like to know or questions you would like you to ask, I would be more than willing to answer.
