Full-Time/Part-Time Babysitter, Nanny, Au Pair with 5 years of experience - Edinburgh EH13
| I am currently looking for some part time or full time work to help me gain new skills and experience in different sectors to help my confidence grow. I have 2 years experience in retail from working as a shop assistant and over 5 years childcare experience as well as two childcare qualifications, a first aid certificate and a full recent disclosure. I have worked in a variety of childcare environments from nurseries, early years crèches to after school clubs. Even though most of my experience is childcare based I have gained many skills that are transferable including excellent communication skills, dealing with customers and providing the best service possible for everyone, being able to work positively in a team or alone and excellent ict skills. I have also been volunteering for girlguiding scotland on and off since 2010 and in October last year began to work towards my adult leader qualification (hopefully, I will complete it by September) and working towards my archery qualification to become a fully qualified archery instructor for girlguiding. Through volunteering with girlguiding, I have gained and improved on various valuable skills such as teamwork and leadership, organisational and budgeting skills.

A child can do anything with the right help!
| I am very passionate about working with children and young people. At present, I work in a school for children with additional support needs from playgroup all the way until they leave school. I run the visual and hearing support team alongside a teacher and relish in the fact that every day is different! Working in the school has allowed me to access a lot of training such as British Sign Language as well as courses on child development. I also have an HNC in Early Education and Childcare. I want the children that I work with to know that they can do anything they set their mind to.

Nanny/babysitter
| I worked in (origin country) France for many years, with 5+ different families that had multiple children. I worked for one family full time, with a wee boy from 10 months until he turned four. Then the rest of the families were simply babysitting nights/day and I also took a group of 5 girls to their after-school activities every week via public transport with no issues. In the UK I au paired in 2018 and then from 2019 till 2022 worked for a family of three in Glasgow with childcare and various household responsibilities. I am also starting a volunteering group with a local organisation that takes care of a small group of kids.
