A bubbly, energetic and mature 18 year old who loves children!
| Hiya, my name is Leah. I am 18 years old and I absolutely love children! I have grown up helping my parents with my little brother who is mentally disabled, autistic and has epilepsy, hearing loss and sight loss. He’s just about to turn 13 and I have been helping ever since he was a baby. He started with epilepsy 5 years ago so I have been giving him his medication in a yogurt ever since so I am comfortable giving children any medication they may need. As my little brother isn’t like a normal little brother I have matured a lot fast than people my own age and have learned to look after difficult children from a young age. I hope you take me into consideration when you are next looking for a babysitter. I can’t wait to hear from you. Thank you!

A Graduate looking for work in the Summer before starting a career in Educational Psychology!
| As a student, I have helped out with babysitting a number of times during holidays since I was 17 for children ages 2-9. I have been recommended numerous times to friends and families for my calm, yet entertaining, approach to child care, however unfortunately a number of these families have either moved, or their children have grown too old to need babysitting! From April until September I am looking for an opportunity to carry this on in-between graduating from Durham University, and starting a degree in educational psychology at York University in late September!
