Child carer/Babysitter
| I have worked within the early years sector for the past 3 years in a nursery setting. I have completed my level 2 in childcare. My previous job role was working second in charge alongside the room leader, this included taking on the same responsibilities to help one another. I then left my job to work part time as a babysitter as I went on maternity leave to have my little boy. I have been working as a babysitter while at the nursery for evenings and weekends. I have been doing this for the past 2 years. I normally work with babies/toddlers. My son would be attending a nursery in Leytonstone so would be convenient to get to jobs and picking up my son.

Friendly female available for babysitting! :)
| I am a friendly, caring and outgoing 30 year old female. I come from a large family, where the children are the heart and soul of our unit. I have no children myself but I am the glorified aunt/babysitter for everyone. I’m great with kids of all ages and understand that each child is different in their own way. I have my own car, so am able to help with drop off/pick ups and any other odd jobs. I’m extremely flexible for dates & time & understand that leaving your child with a stranger is one of the most nerve wracking things you could do. But if I can put your mind at rest in any please let me know. Although I’m not a qualified childminder, l have years of experience babysitting etc. I also have a great group of friends who ARE qualified nannies/au pairs and childminders. A few run their own nurseries etc and so I am surrounded by professionals in a personal capacity. I also have worked with children in the past from age range of 7-16 and was fully dbs checked at the time. I don’t smoke etc and am a huge animal lover for anyone that has pets. I would love to speak to you more if you feel I may be able to assist you and your family!
