Qualified, Experienced, Kind and Passionate Childminder
|
I am a kind and gentle caregiver, with an Honours Degree in Social Sciences and at the moment I am just finishing my QQI 5 in Childcare. I have 3 years of experience minding children and babysitting, as well as experience as a parent (I have a son, born on 7/02/2020); I am Garda Vetted and I have Infant First Aid training and I am familiar with different educational approaches: Unconditional Parenting, Gentle Parenting, Montessori and Steiner systems and I am ready to learn about anything you consider important for your child. I am flexible in terms of schedule and personalised requests and preferences and willing to accommodate each parent's and child's preferences and needs. I prefer to work in my own home, since it's been designed with this particular purpose. I love the outdoors and being in nature, making walks and running around with little ones; I enjoy reading ("grown up stuff" in the evening, picture books during the day), arts and crafts, music and cooking (wooden vegetables in particular). I am calm and patient, while also overflowing with enthusiasm and energy. I love playing and learning from the little ones, as well as sharing my knowledge, hence my choice to mind children.
