Hello, I'm 23 years old and I am reliable, patient, kind, imaginative and caring.
| With a passion for nurturing and a background in childcare, I’m here to create a fun and safe environment for your little ones. Whether it’s playing imaginative games, getting messy with arts and crafts, or reading bedtime stories, I love making every moment special. I believe in fostering creativity and independence while ensuring that children feel heard and valued. With four years of experience and a love for working with children, you can trust that your kids are in safe hands. When I was 15 and 16, I did some babysitting. After secondary school, I worked at a nursery for three and a half years. I completed first aid and childcare courses, but as that was a few years ago, they will have lapsed. For my education, I went to an international school in Spain, where I did MYP, which is the equivalent of GCSEs. I took a Pediatric First Aid course on November 1st, 2024. I have taken this before, but you need to retake it every three years. This training equips me with essential skills for handling emergencies involving infants and children, including first aid techniques and how to respond in critical situations.
