Childcare in Worcester

| I'm a retired music agent, a mother of 2 and grandmother of 5. I brought up both of my children alone. My youngest grandchild is 11 yrs and she is home educated. I have plenty of time on my hands now and would love to spend some of it using my lifetime experiences, and passing some of this on to young people. My daughter is physically disabled and my son is mixed race, which gives me personal insight into some of the problems and discrimination facing many young people today. I'm a compassionate, intelligent, kind, reliable and trustworthy person who wants to be useful in society. I've spent much time with my home-educated granddaughter and have taught her how to sew and knit, gone cycling with her regularly and taught her basic grammar and spelling. I also have a 15 year old grandson who has autism and have spent a lot of time with him through the years. Having brought up both of my children single-handedly and helped out with childcare with all 5 grandchildren, whose ages range from 11 to 27, I feel I have enough experience to be an excellent babysitter.

| I am a third year trainee primary school teacher specialising in early years. I have completed placements in a primary school and am therefore happy to help with homework/tutoring. I studied childcare in college and afterwards took some time out of education where I worked in a nursery full time and I continue to work there over the summer. I have worked across the nursery but have mostly worked in baby and toddler rooms. I often babysit for neighbours and family friends. I enjoy cooking and have recently started to learn to crochet! I am also planning to take a first aid course after christmas.

| As well as having three children of my own aged 11, 13 and 19, I have worked in Preschool for 5+ years and as an Ofsted registered childminder. I have a Level 3 Early Years Qualification, First aid Certificate, DBS, Food Hygiene, Autism Awareness and many other CPD certificates. I can provide weekday childcare in your own home and ad hoc evening or overnight babysitting services. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.

| I have been working with children since 2014. I have 6 Years preschool experience and have recently completed a PGCE in Primary teaching. I am a qualified children’s yoga teacher and hold a level 3 childcare certificate. I also have a 6 year old boy of my own.

| Hi I'm Zoe. I'm 33 years old and live in Upton upon Severn. After leaving school I completed an NVQ Level 2 in Childcare which qualifies me as a nanny. I worked in a day nursery for 5 years and then worked as a nanny for three families. I have spent the last 2 years working in Elderly Care but would like to return to childcare. I'm passionate about giving children the best start in life. I have cared for children with Additional Needs (ADHD, autism and Down Syndrome)

| I am a kind and nurturing individual who has always had an interest in caring for children. I am experienced in caring for children up to 11 years and have a qualification in children’s play, learning and development. Part of this qualification was to attend 800 hours of placement experience which has provided me with skills and knowledge of children aged 0 - 11 years. I have also got experience in working with children who have additional needs. I feel that I would be a great childcare provider to any family and would consider the needs of the children to provide them with the care that they deserve.

| I have not had much experience baby/child sitting except family friends, but I have volunteered with children for up to 8 years. Most recently I volunteer at rainbows and a Sunday school, in which I am DBS checked. Given the responsibility of childcare I will follow the instructions and most importantly keep the child safe from harm. I understand all children are different for needs and personality and can adapt to suit. I can clean and cook meals, I also am one for sport and can swim. Having helped a couple of people to me I have a concept of their education. The only constraints are the times of my exams and lectures and i do not have a car with me at uni so I can walk or get some buses. I also know first aid if required.

| I have worked for 8 years in childcare, starting off in a private day nursery where I worked my way up to Deputy Manager, I’ve worked abroad as a children's club nanny and Deputy Manager, now I am a Manager at a private day nursery. I've also done private nannying. I am qualified and have references and DBS up to date.

| I have always had a good relationship with kids, I have an active lifestyle and love spending time outside. I don’t smoke. As an international student it would also be good oportunity for me to practice my English. While being with me, your child(ren) would never feel bad. I look forward taking new challenges and I think it would be fun to work with kids.
