I am a 20 year old woman studying Child, Youth & Family studies in NUIG. I have 5+ years of childminding experience ranging from young babies up to early teenagers. I love working with children, especially babies, and the family! I have done volunteer work with young people with special needs which I really enjoyed. I have experience cooking, cleaning, helping with homework, organising crafts and outdoor activities for children. I have a special interest in baking, cooking, reading and art which I love to incorporate into my work with children. My mother is also a childminder and has worked in this field since I was young so I grew up helping with children which I think has helped me develop great skills and appreciation for this work!
