Childcare in Epsom and Ewell

| I have been working in childcare for over 20 years in all settings Schools, nurseries, nanny, childminder, preschool, kids clubs, crèche I have 3 children of my own who are currently 12, 11, 3 I have spent all my life with children around me and I enjoy seeing each and every one grow and learn

| I have been working in childcare since I finished my level 2&3 childcare qualification at college. I love meeting new people and working with families. Looking for some extra work in my spare time. Feel free to email me if you are interested.

| I’m 23 years old and live in Epsom, I hold a CATCHE Level 3 childcare and education and CATCHE Level 3 Transition to playwork certificates, 8 years of childcare experience, full clean driving licence, I am currently working full time as a room leader in a local nursery. I am very experienced with all age ranges of children. I have worked, as a supervisor within a breakfast and after school club, a crèche and playscheme lead within a well known leisure centre, a support room leader for a baby room and toddler room in a local nursery in a position of lead nursery teaching assistant at a school nursery. I have recently got a promotion from a previous employer so I am now room leader for the nursery. I have experience from zero to leaving school age. Within all these positions I have gone on a variety courses from paediatric first aid (renewed oct 2017) and safeguarding ect which is widened my knowledge and given me a great 8 years experience.

| Since 2014 I have worked in childcare with many children of different abilities, during this time I have gained experience in working with children to help them develop and reach their individual needs while keeping activities fresh, challenging, and interesting. I am also fully qualified as an early years educator and hold current DBS and First Aid certificates. I have taken part in SEN training and worked with children with additional needs, through this I have gained the ability to adapt to the child's individual personalities and their own needs to help them develop and reach their next milestones. I tend to be quite creative and enjoy doing spontaneous activities to encourage the children to think and act creatively. I am also able to play Guitar, Bass, and Ukulele, and if the children are interested in it I enjoy including the instruments in the activities. I believe children should enjoy as much of the outdoors as they can and I enjoy planing activities that involve going on a trip, even if it's only to the local park

| I have qualifications in child care and food technology with 7 years experience. In my experience I have nannied for three different families. My first was for a little boy at three months until aged four years with occasionally his older sister who was four until she was eight years old. My main roles were to get the baby up in the morning and ready for the day, taking him out during the day to baby and toddler classes, the zoo or the farm, the aquarium etc, preparing his food and doing his bath and bed routine. My second family was for a little girl from four months old until ages three years old. Her mother was very ill so I was there from early morning, I would get the baby up and ready for her day, make her food or bottles, clean the house, sometimes help with the mother’s food, take the baby out to baby and toddler groups, give her dinner and do her bath and bed routine. My last family was for a little girl from two years old and who I currently still see and occasionally babysit at five years old. My main responsibilities were getting her up and ready for the day, preparing her meals, playing with her, taking her out to places, giving her medication and also doing her bath and bed routine.

| I’m a 26 year old, on furlough atm from working in my family business. I live with my partner. Whilst at uni I did regular babysitting for a family with 3 children, and since then have done babysitting here and there. I have 2 nieces under two that a babysit regularly (pre covid) so have a lot of experience with baby’s, as well as older kids having two younger siblings. I have a degree in economics and human bio so able to help with homework, granted it’s been a while but willing to brush up on my knowledge if needed. I can understand that with the current pandemic it can be hard to find childcare as grandparents are shielding. I’m willing to bubble with a family, but please take into consideration I live with my partner whom is still working. I drive also if that helps.

| I have done Brownies, Scouts and Explorers, so have done learnt basic first aid and child care. I have also babysat and looked after many kids since i was around 16 and I am now 19. I love to look after kids, play games with them and read them stories. So I would be happy to help out when needed.

My passion for Childcare stemmed from the fact I have two younger siblings, whom I believe I have had a great deal bringing up. I therefore have always had a motherly instinct, enjoying taking care and playing with children. In the past, I have done short periods of work experience in various schools, including nurseries and primary schools. I believe this has enabled me to understand children's needs, taking care of them in a professional manner as well as teaching them vital skills in life and education. I am therefore able to interact and experienced with toddlers as well as school age and teenagers. I have not had a lot of experience with newborns in a while, however I feel I may be more confident with a little training and guidance, as I feel each child's needs can differ, which is something I have learnt through looking after my siblings. I have also done some volunteering at the YMCA in Banstead, where I helped look after disabled children (mostly autistic). Although this was brief, again with a little training/guidance I feel I could look after special needs children.
