Experienced Nanny/Babysitter looking for job. I can provide references.
| Hello everyone, I'm Julie, 26 years old, I have more than 6 years of experience with kids. I was a live in au pair for two kids for two years and half, ages 6 months - 3.5y.o. Before that I looked after 3 kids as a live in nanny for 8 months. In the last two years I also had experience as a mother, I have a two years old son who attends nursery now and that's why I am looking for a job as nanny or babysitter. I have experience on BLW (baby led weaning) and also traditional weaning. I’m happy to do some light housework as well. I understand how important is to find a trustworthy nanny and I can provide references if needed. I follow the gentle approach in childcare, I believe is very important to respect the "big emotions" of our little ones.
