Hi, I’m Izzy. I work holistically with your child at the very centre of all that I do.
| I am an experienced primary school teacher. I have recently returned home after 10 years living in New Zealand. I am passionate about working with children in a fun & educational way. I truly believe children are extraordinary and deserve the very best in order to become their very best selves too. With 8 years working with children & their families, building relationships is the foundation to my work. My greatest strength is in the care I take to build and foster positive and meaningful relationships by learning about and valuing each individuals’ diverse personalities. I relish in coming up with engaging ways to spend time, in a way that is meaningful for each child. I can hold the space with clear boundaries that help children feel heard, safe and valued. My communication & organisational skills are utmost. I can be relied upon to be prompt, share back celebrations/concerns so that we have an open partnership. This includes keeping the space clean & tidy. I do chores and am happy to work on individualised needs. I’m first aid trained and confident in keeping your child safe in all environments. I can do personal care and training where needed.

A Reliable and trustworthy professional.
| Coming from health care industry, I understand the importance of having a trusted person to look after your children. In my previous role as a Human Resource Officer at Cedarcrest, I worked closely with children from different educational institutions, ensuring that their internships was done in a conducive environment. I have had the privilege of looking after three children who are currently in the University. One of them was a year old when I started babysitting her and I also babysit her younger ones from birth. Seeing these children grow into responsible young adult inspired my decision of choosing this profession. My experience working as a Human Resources Officer in a fast paced environment has honed my interpersonal, communication, organizational, and empathetic skills. I have a track record of maintaining confidentiality and I am detailed oriented.

I can help with tutoring, cooking, house chores. Ideally looking to start asap but I am flexible
| Being the eldest sister, to my four siblings, I could say my experience in childcare has started very early. I have always had a special connection with children and, in 2017, I decided to act upon it. In fact, in 2017 and 2018 I have completed an internship in one of the local kindergartens in Italy in Albisola. There, I have learned a lot of different skill. In addition, I have received extremely positive feedback that proved that my passion and experience to that point were not futile. Throughout the years I've also been quite successful at helping children and teenagers with homework. I have an advanced knowledge of three languages: English, Italian and French (level C1-C2) and I also know German (B1-B2), while I've just started studying Spanish (A1-A2) I can cook a good variety of dishes from different cuisines, in particular, I love preparing delicious vegan dishes, yet I can adapt quite easily. Please leave your contact/email address as there are sometimes troubles answering messages on care.

Coming in from the US we were a little nervous about hiring a sitter for a few evenings. After many emails back and forth and upon meeting Jessica we knew our children would be in good hands. She was fabulous. It was hard because we were visiting the city and our children weren't in their own home, but Jessica was great at keeping them entertained and on track."

Areti is a very reliable nanny. She was always on time and communicated in advance her availability. She had not worked with infants before and she wanted to meet us first before she decided if she would be able to care for our daughter. I appreciated that a lot, it demonstrated her maturity. She was responsible for our daughter a couple of afternoons a week for a few months - she played with her, fed her, took her out for walks etc. We have now secured a place at a nursery but we will be using her again on an ad-hoc basis."

Let us sacrifice our today so that our children can have a better tomorrow.
| When I was 8 years old my sister was born and since then I was the one who took care of her because my parents were so busy all the time. I cooked for her, washed her, have fun and all that kind of stuff. I really derived great pleasure sitting and taking care of children. Because I enjoy their company, I volunteer to my local church to organise summer camps for children. I organised many activities like painting, drawing, football, badminton and more. The kids were so excited all the time and that made me so happy. It is truly the best feeling in the world!

My kids love Gloria, they always ask about her when she is not around! She is very reliable and on time, and also creates a safe, fun and healthy environment for the kids. She is always happy to take the kids to play outside when the weather is nice and creates tasty healthy meals for them. Hector was asking for her vegetables in his dinner which was surprise! They both sleep very well after a day with Gloria which is amazing because my daughter Vivien sometimes has trouble with sleep before. Also the house is always very very clean when I come home in the afternoon. If you are looking for reliable and fun baby sitter for your kids message Gloria she is amazing!"

I have experience working with kids from my time as a youth rowing coach. For 4 years, I worked with children and teens age 12-17, teaching them to row crew, cooperate as a team, and build confidence. As an undergraduate, I worked as a Resident Assistant in a first-year dorm. I received training in leadership, safety, and inclusion; I went on to manage a floor of 40 Freshman, maintain Covid-19 safety during the pandemic, and facilitate community-building activities. I decided to join Care.com to find a flexible job that helps pay tuition while I complete my studies. I have CPR certification and crisis management qualifications. Through my social work program, I have received PVG clearance to work with both adults and children. I am passionate about cooking and am comfortable with meal-prep and household cleaning/organization. I love the outdoors, arts & crafts, books (I majored in English as an undergrad!) and Pixar movies! Please reach out with any questions and if you are in need of a babysitter!

Caring and committed
| I am reliable, committed and responsible and enjoy looking after children. I have babysat for family, friends and neighbours from a young age and have always wanted to work in the care sector. Just after finishing school I went abroad to do au pairing in ####.#### involved looking after three children ages 3,5 and 7. The role involved assisting them in their daily activities and teaching them English which Expanded my knowledge and communication skills. I have also completed an HNC in social services and an SVQ 3 in children and young people. Through this I was able to carry out a placement at Braidburn special needs school. This involved supporting children with various additional needs. This allowed me to apply the knowledge taught from lectures and tutorials when working with these children to support them to the best of my ability. In addition to this, I have also worked at leaps and bounds after school club supporting primary school children. I have had a lot of experience working with various different children and feel I am well suited to the role of child care.

Lori worked for our family taking care of three children aged 3,6 and 7, from July until November 2016. Her role was live-in. We found Lori to be very helpful, caring, reliable and sweet with the children - always with a smile on her face. She was able to hold the attention of each child, creating interesting games for them, even though there was a language barrier it didnt get in the way. We would gladly have kept Lori working with us, but she had to leave to complete her studies. We recommend her for a position working with children. I am happy to be contacted for any further information. Lucrezia Lucifero"
