Hi there, My name is Ellie and I am 25 years old. I am a native English speaker and I also speak a small amount of French due to my time as an au pair and nanny in Paris. I worked as an au pair for a year where I looked after 3 children aged from 2 years old to 9 years old. My duties included getting the children ready in the morning, making breakfast and taking them to school on the bus, collecting them from school and taking them to any activities they had or to the park and then completing homework with them before bathing them before dinner. I returned to Paris 2 years later to work as a nanny and to take a childcare course, I also worked in a creche 1 day a week. Unfortunately I had to return to the UK before finishing the course but I still learnt a lot whilst I was there. My nanny duties included looking after 2 brothers aged 3 and 5, collecting them from school and taking them to the park or setting up indoor activities for them if there was wet weather. I would also bathe them, cook their dinner and sit with them while they ate. I also have experience looking after a newborn as I looked after my 10 week old niece for 3 weeks when her mother had to return to work.
