In 2013 I looked after 16 teenagers over the summer and spring holidays from France. They were in my total care from the moment they got off the coach with their teachers to 7 or 10 days later back when they got back on their coach to return home to France. I looked after the children's every need and make sure they were well fed watered and taken to school where they could continue with their English language learning. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would have done it again last year but I had a major shoulder operation which took 9 months to recover from so until now I wasn't well enough to do any more hosting. In addition to that I am 12, 7 and 8 years older than my siblings who I would babysit for when my parents were not around as they worked such long hours in the 80's so this type of work is easy to me. Children warm to me as I am understanding and patient but above all I am kind and considerate. If you would like my services I am available days or evenings as per your requirement.

Energetic and fun former teaching assistant who would love to be a part of your family’s life
| I am a lively and experienced carer with a huge passion for children. I have worked as a Teaching Assistant in a primary school specialising in one to one tutoring and special educational needs. I adore spending time with kids and making them happy. I can hold a great balance between fun and discipline which helps me make the kids smile but not have them run amok. I like to bring a sense of entertainment whether it be indoors or outdoors and I am used to working with children of all ages. I am happy to undertake housework and I love cooking for my family so I would be honoured to share that with yours. After working in a school I have a grasp of the national curriculum so homework help comes naturally to me. I am looking to return to university in 2021 to do my PGCE and become a full time primary teacher. As the eldest of the children in my family I have been babysitting for family and their friends for well over 10 years. I have a fully clean driving license and am fully DBS checked (last check was October 2019 and still valid for 3 years).

A highly experienced Educationalist with the experience of taking care of children
| I feel that my nurturing and caring personality as well as my patience and high tolerance level will not only help me effectively in supporting children but will also help me when managing and working with a group of individuals. I am a friendly/bubbly character who is capable of lowering down to the child’s level to build a positive relationship that is filled with care and compassion. In order to be a successful babysitter or nanny, you have to be able to understand the child from within and that is only possible if you put yourself in the child’s shoes. I am currently working as a Year 2 teacher and am very enthusiastic about developing their curiosities and providing children with the opportunities to enhance their knowledge and understanding of this world. I have experience of working in Key stage 1 and 2, SEN secondary schools (4 years) and an autism provision attached to a mainstream secondary school. I also have experience looking after a 5 year old. I am also capable of doing light house work such as hoovering, cleaning and laundry. I am more than happy to multi-task and am very flexible and also have access to my own vehicle.

A fun, engaging and responsible 20 year old who loves children.
| Although I do not have a whole lot of experience professionally, I am 7 years older than my younger brother and have a lot of experience in babysitting for him. This included picking him up from school (however I do not drive), cooking for him, playing with him, helping with homework and putting him to bed. I have also helped babysit children of my parent's friends including cooking for them and playing with them and keeping them engaged with various activities. I have volunteered for 3 months in Moldova working at a disability centre for children, The Tony Hawks Center, and I spent much of my day helping the children learn English, helping with school homework, playing with them and teaching them how to swim.
