My strengths lie particularly in caring for babies and toddlers up to three. I take great care in forming a strong relationship with the children I work with so that I can provide them with the best individual care it’s possible for me to give.

I am professional, efficient and organised. *I am currently waiting to be issued a new DBS after spending a few months in Australia*

Having spent the last year taking care of a newborn and his 3 year old brother, I learnt a great deal about the importance of child care. I loved every minute of it and hope to continue looking after children in the future. My days included taking the eldest brother to nursery, cleaning, cooking, trips into town and lots of playtime! I worked nights as well as daytime hours. When it comes to leisure I enjoy walking, cycling, games, swimming as well as most outdoor activities. I am very patient and time giving! Despite having a full-time job working for Cambridge University Press, I miss working with children and hope that I can use my available time to help parents with any extra childcare they may require.

FAQs for finding childcare in Cambridge

How much does it cost in 2024 to hire a childcare provider in Cambridge?

Hiring someone on Care.com to provide childcare services will cost an average of £12.28 per hour as of September 2024. This rate may vary depending on the experience each childcare provider has, how many kids you will need them to watch, the age of your children, and whether you need part-time or full-time childcare.

How can I find childcare help near me?

Care.com currently has 1,797 childcare providers Cambridge. You can search for childcarers by their distance from Cambridge and by hourly pay rate. Then you can compare their experience, specific services they offer and what age groups of kids they specialise in caring for. You can also read reviews from other families in Cambridge that have worked with the childcarers you're interested in.

What interview questions should I ask a childcare provider?

You want to find a childcare provider that will get along with your kids, but also follows many of the same parenting ideas you have. Structure your questions around how your kids behave in certain situations and what the provider thinks is the best action to take. And because there are plenty of activities to do in Cambridge, you should ask questions about the fun things each childcare provider would do to keep your kids happy and entertained. Finally, ask each provider about their past childcare experience, references from other families in Cambridge and if they are certified in first aid.
