Based in Hitchin- 4 years experience with children from the ages 1 to 9, I am looking for full time.
| I am 20 years old and have been a babysitter since the age of 16- I have experience with children from the age of 1 to the age of 9. I have always been surrounded by children having such a big family of over 30 cousins( I probably would have to take a moment and write each one down if you asked me to!) I enjoy art and creative things even though I’m not the best at drawing and I also like singing- I love going for walks and personally feel I am very good with children, I feel I have the right balance between an adult heart and child heart(and at family events I am ALWAYS the one with the children:) the amount of times I’ve heard my uncles and aunties telling their children” go and play with Eden” is unreal!) I am very easy going and believe I am very positive and always try to have a good uplifting energy! I am also happy with animals if you have any pets (LOVE cats)or if your children like going to the farm.

Loving, happy and understanding
| I am 23 and work full time as an ATM Administrator. I have a cat called pickle and I live on my own in the centre of Hitchin. I work from home full time from the hours of 6:30am-15:00pm. I have baby sat for friends and family since I was 14-15 and really enjoy chatting and getting to know their little minds and seeing their creative sides. I do a lot of crafts myself and would love to participate in these kinds of activities with children :) I regularly look after my two young cousins. (3 and 4) this includes bathing, getting into PJs, reading books and getting to bed. I have always had a very natural instinct with little ones and I love spending time with them whether we are learning something together, watching tv or playing with toys. I love to cook and bake too which can be a fun activity and also means I can help prep meals etc.
