| I love being outdoors walking and exploring new places! I have looked after twin boys for four years and I loved every minute of it. The boys have now gone to primary school. I enjoyed spending my time with the children helping them to achieve their gross motor skills in their early years such as: crawling, walking, talking, counting, reading and many more! My last nanny role i enjoyed taking the children out for walks and I also took them on lots of days out to wild place, puxton park, wild place, parks and many more places. We also had days in where we would do lots of creative things and imaginative play like role play! I am a mummy to my 5 year old son who is my whole world! I take him and pick him up from school (in Bradley stoke) which I would still carry on doing whilst helping a family:) I have recently done my paediatric first aid course so that is all up to date and I have also done my core skills and knowledge course. I will be able to get references from my previous nanny job and the babysitting I do for you if you would like to see them! If you have any questions please feel free to send a message or email me I check them every day.

| Hi there, my name is Sophie and I am 21 years old. I study marketing at Plymouth University, however currently live in Bristol on my placement year, working in a marketing agency based in Bath. I will be returning to University mid September and I am looking for part time work. I have always had a passion for working with children, and discussing completing my PGCE year once graduated to become a primary school teacher. I am a fun, entertaining and energetic person who enjoys various activities with a variety of ages. I am loving and caring, and love making bonds with the children. I always want the children to enjoy their time with me and look forward to working with me. I have been interested in working with children from a young age and embrace every job in which I've had so far. I have worked with a variety of families ranging from 6 months old - mid teen. Please feel free to email me for any more information and I am able to provide references. I have worked with children for 7 years. I started volunteering at Mencap Juniors, in Keynsham, Bristol. This is where I worked with children with special needs from a toddler age up until they turned 12. I have stayed with this charity until I started university. The work involved both group activities and one to one work. I ran my own activities and absolutely adored the time I spent with the children. I have since worked at Playlink, a form of day care for children during the school holidays. I work here with similar children with a variety of special needs, I did this fulltime during school holidays in Bristol. My recent jobs include being a nanny for two young boys 3-4 days a week, in which I picked up from school, assisted homework and provided tea. This led to adhoc babysitting for their neighbours ages 10 and 11. I also provided babysitting services for a 9 month old baby between 2-3 times a week. On top of my work experience, I have babysat for both family and friends. I have young family members who I've looked after since they were babies. I am experienced and always want to build relationships with the children I work with. I love what I do and would love to offer my experience to loving families. When I return to university in September, I am looking for part time work. I am available majority of evenings and weekends. Once I have my timetable I will be clearer on availability, however have confidence I will be quite free due to being final year.

| Hello, My name is Florence, most people call me Flo. I am a cheery and energetic 23 year old. I am currently working as a nanny/ housekeeper for an 9 year old girl as well as previous experience looking after an 8 year old boy who had autism. In addition to this I have worked as a babysitter for several families. I am about to start an art foundation course so I am looking to work Thursdays and Fridays. I love children and enjoy their company immensely and find nothing is more rewarding than taking care of them. I believe in creating a positive, happy environment for children, one in which they feel protected and can thrive. I have good organisational and communication skills, which I believe are among the most important skills for a nanny. I have been DBS checked as well as achieving a certificate in Paediatric First Aid.

| Having obtained a first class honours degree in Early Childhood and Education, I've been situated in both a primary school volunteering, and also a nursery. I have also had babysitting experience in my year out of education, along with working in an orphanage and schools out in India. I am passionate about the holistic growth and development of children and ensuring they have the best and most positive start in life. My job enables me to work closely with children to improve their academic achievements and reach their full potential both within academia and more holistically.

| Hello,my name is somto, I am from Nigeria. I am a masters students in international management. I love cooking,reading,dancing,shopping,singing and writing short write ups. I am patient, good communicator, have self reliance, good at multitasking and am confident. Started babysitting at quite a young age because I have two junior ones and had to baby sit then when my parents went to work. With time, I started taking care of my neighbours children, both new babies and older ones. Used my parents house as a day care for them. I can be a babysitter or nanny depends on what the parent want and also, it doesn’t just end at taking care of a child, teaching them and educating them is also a priority because children start to learn things when they are young so why not use that as an advantage to teach them little things like poems, children rhyme, alphabets and numbers just like I do when I babysit. To be a nanny isn’t just looking after a child, it involves taking into consideration that that child will see you as a second family, teacher, friend when the parents are not around, so to be a nanny you have to be good at what you do and know that any wrong decision will affect the child.

| I am currently completing a post graduate certificate in Therapeutic Play Skills and I have graduated with a first class honours degree in Early Childhood at the University of the West of England. I have experience of working with children in both school and nursery settings. I have also had some experience of babysitting on the side of my job roles. I have always loved working with children and have known that I wanted to work with them from a very young age. I am a fun, caring, friendly and helpful individual who would love to help take care of your child/children. My aim in life is to eventually become a Play Therapist to help children with social, emotional and behavioural issues.

| I have been studying and working in childcare for almost 6 years. Over that time I have completed my Level 3 Childcare and Education Diploma and GCSE in Childcare. During my studies I did voluntary work in various nurseries and primary schools. Since becoming a fully qualified childcare practitioner I have worked as a nursery nurse, working with children aged 9 months to 2 years. For the past two years I have been working as a full time nanny for children between the ages of 6 weeks - 4 years. My duties include caring for the children, cooking them healthy balanced meals, making the beds, cleaning up after the children and around the house during nap times, bathing them, doing the bed time routines, taking the children to classes, school drop offs and pick ups and occasionally laundry. Two of the families I nanny for have had 3 children 3 and under, so I’m used to working with many young children at one given time. I’m happy to - and often do - work all different hours of the week, including evening babysitting, overnights and full weekends when the parents are away. My job role has also meant I’ve been lucky enough to travel with a family to the south of France on a summer holiday.

I was in top set classes at school and am also happy to help with any homework or schooling required, I am a good cook, anything you need just ask and I’m sure we can sort something out : )

| Being the oldest cousin in my family has helped me realise how important it is for kids to be in a healthy and suitable environment and to have someone of trust when their parents are not home. I have had previous experiences of babysitting where I had to take care of kids in every aspect such as bathing, helping with homework, feeding, entertaning, pick up, droping off, putting to bed... I am very energetic and I love to play with the children but also very patient and responsible to handle any kind of situation. As a babysitter a I have taken care of children from 0 to 13 years old and depending on the situation I have taken care of 1 to 6 kids at the same time. I believe that one of the best things that I have is that no mater how my day as a babysittter went I am always looking forward to come back the next day a do my best.

| I started babysitting when I was in high school at 14 years old for a family with triplets aged 7 years old. I would babysit usually once a week for them, sometimes more if they needed. I worked with that family for about a year and a half until they moved away. After that I was never fully working with just one family, just little jobs here and there until I was hired part-time as a hostess at a restaurant. Now that I am living abroad, I have more time to get back into babysitting.

| I am a recent Photography graduate from the University of The West of England. Within my creative work, I have a passion for capturing and exploring topical subjects that affect real people, society and our environment. My interests in what I photographically capture come from my nature of caring and interest in other peoples journeys. I am a confident, optimist and kind individual who enjoys human interaction and helping others. I have been babysitting from the age of 14, from new born babies up to secondary school children. I often stay with a family a long time and form good relationships with both the children and the parents. I have over 10 parents/families that would be happy to offer reference. I am currently learning to drive so will soon be offer to more mobile actives if wanted and school pick up/drop off. I enjoy meeting new people and forming new relationships!
