Very trustworthy hard working,person very honest and first at all I enjoy enjoy what I do
| I am an experienced Cache qualified nanny who is fully CRB certified. I have now been working with children for over 25 years. I have worked in play groups and crèches and with various families and young children. I have been the carer of young children for some years now, and have worked in a group and a one on one basis. Having gained a ‘Teaching Spanish to Young Learners’ certificate from the Cervantes centre in London I am also qualified in this area. I have worked as a volunteer for special needs children. My responsibilities involved supporting and encouraging children with disabilities in order for them to evolve to their fullest potential. I have completed a number of relevant courses and I successfully completed an NVQ level 1 and 2 in childcare, and have also completed level 1 and 2 in maths. I am also the mother of three children who are now grown up and in higher education or employment. This of course has also provided me with a wealth of experience in looking after children of all ages and at all stages of their lives.

Babysitter, Nanny, Au Pair - Speaks English, French - SS9
| I have babysat for 10+ years. I am a very fun, energetic babysitter. I am very honest and trustworthy, very reliable, even on short notice. I used Care.com while I was living in the States and I met a wonderful family, who till this day is still a big part of my life. I babysat their son from the age of 9 months until he was 5 years old. I also babysat other children as well, but the child I babysat from 9 months old was my longest job. I got to help him walk, talk, learn new things, etc. I love to be a part of that experience and it's a growing step in my life, as well as the child. I have many years of babysitting, paid and unpaid. I helped my parents while they were working, so I babysat my younger brothers. In high school, I took child development classes and took the State exam [Florida] and passed. I love to babysit and gain the experience of looking after children. I love to do all sorts of activities with the child (ren), I follow all instructions left by the parents and update them through out the day/night and when I see them.

Zahin - the brilliant child carer
| I have a lot experience looking after my brother whenever my parents leave the house. I currently tutor children so I will be able to help the kids with their homework. As someone who also does chores when instructed by parents (including hoovering, folding clothes etc.) I believe I have some experience with house keeping. When my brother was younger I made sure he was fed and spent time playing with him and made fun time more interactive and enjoyable. I also read him stories before he went to bed.

A kind and caring woman, loves to make children happy and feel comfortable, great with all ages!
| I’m great with children of all ages, I’ve been partially looking after my 4 year old sister since she was a baby whilst my mum had work or other commitments so I’ve got good experience with dealing with babies and toddlers. I really enjoy spending time with children and helping them with learning and behaviours. All children that I come across tend to gravitate towards me because of my kind nature, so I feel like this is a perfect role for me.
