Aside from the odd babysitting job I had whilst I was at school, I was an aupair in London for 10 months for an 18 month old boy and a 5 year old girl. I had to learn all the basics: cooking for them, cleaning up after them, changing nappies, bathing them, putting them to bed, helping with homework, on top of taking them to and from school. I can therefore apply these skills to any new job I find. If needed, I would be happy to get a reference from the family!
