Experienced and Reliable Babysitter with Extensive Family and Professional Background
| As the eldest of four children in a single-parent household, I have consistently supported my mother in managing our family. My extensive experience includes feeding, bathing, and helping with homework for my younger siblings, ranging from infants to teenagers. I have been deeply involved in every aspect of their care, effectively taking on responsibilities akin to family babysitting. Through these experiences, I have developed a profound understanding of children's needs at various developmental stages. My skills include nurturing infants, managing the energetic needs of toddlers, and providing guidance and support for teenagers. My background has also equipped me with practical problem-solving abilities, patience, and the capacity to create a safe and engaging environment for children. Additionally, I have formal babysitting experience outside my family, where I have applied my skills and proven my ability to connect with and care for children. I am confident in my ability to handle any situation that arises and am dedicated to ensuring the well-being and happiness of the children I care for.

A considerate student to look after your children with the flexibility, love and care they deserve
| Hi there, I'm Laura and I have just graduated from my undergraduate degree and i am now applying to study my PhD. I don't have any babysitting experience but i have looked after friends younger siblings whilst they or parents are out of the room. I have also grown up with a mum that works as a teacher and i have always loved going in to help out in classes as a one off. I am a competent individual that learns quickly. I love working with younger children, it is time well spent! At the moment i am not driving but i am willing to walk long distances and i am looking to get myself a bike. I do not have a DBS check as i am not sure the Basic check would be enough for everyone looking for a babysitter so if you would like an enhanced DBS with barred list then i can do with your request. I am also hoping to start a first aid training course when the world calms down slightly! Please don't let lack of experience dissuade you from choosing me as your babysitter. I may not have direct experience in babysitting but i have spent a long time with young children growing up and developed experience that way. I am happy to provide you with a reference if you would like so please don't hesitate to ask. I look forward to hearing from you
