Confident and reliable carer
| Having always cared for my younger relatives growing up, I realised I have a knack for childcare. I am not only interested in caring, but also in engaging in intellectual activities that stimulate the young mind. Having grown up with a mother who works in childcare, I have a deep understanding of the childcare system and the art of caring for children. I am confident in most areas of childcare such as; cooking, cleaning, activities, and bedtimes. Additionally, I have peer experience with tutoring, so am happy to help with any level of homework or revision. Furthermore, I am confident around pets and also offer to care for them.
