Warm and friendly children’s counsellor looking for some extra income!
| Hi there! I am a 27 year old professional who already works with children on a day to day basis. Situated in a primary school I am part of the pastoral team and a counsellor for the children there. I have been working in primary schools for over four years now working within mainly SEN and SEMH roles. I am fully DBS checked, have the proof for this as well as numerous other emotional qualifications where I've learnt to connect and help children. I am fun, friendly and most of all approachable. I'm mainly available for weekend and evening babysitting however when it is summer and half term I am free for all sorts of care and happy for long-term placements. Rather than just babysitting your child I am happy to plan activities around mindfulness and nurture if that is of interest! I am also happy doing light housework, cooking and putting children to bed. Feel free to message me on here and get to know me more :)
