I have volunteered with children with additional support needs since I was 12 years old. I can speak Makaton (sign language) and can deal with children with complex needs. I have taught sign language in primary schools and nursery’s, as well as helping at a local play group. I had a background check half way through this year and therefore have an in date disclosure. I have also tutored from primary school (all subjects) to high school students (higher English, art, history, business and fashion). I have a genuine passion for caring and helping children. I am a bubbly and creative person and have helped many children grow and flourish. I can assist in terms of advancing in education, as well as being a fun and loving caregiver. If you selected me to care for your children, I would prepare fun and interactive activities to fill our time with depending on their age. I would do all I could to ensure they felt comfortable with me, and create a safe space for them to communicate with me.
