History student looking for experience working with children
| I am a student studying History and Philosophy at the University of Glasgow. During school holidays i am around the s25 area of sheffield. I have done casual babysitting before for family friends with young children, and have always loved it! I currently look after a 1 year old and a 4 year old and absolutely adore my job. I also helped out at a kids club at my old school. My hope is to become a primary teacher, and babysitting would be a great way for me to start working with children. I can prepare meals, and help with most homework.

| I have a vast amount of experience and knowledge with working with children. I'm fun, creative and believe that every child should be given the the opportunity to reach their full potential. I plan and organise activities everyday, encouraging the children to learn through play and have fun. Having a good relationship with both children and parents is very important to me. I also do part time babysitting On a regular basis, babysitting for me is more than just sitting on the tv! It’s a time to bond, play games, help with homework and have fun together. I have certificates in first aid, food hygiene, child protection and I am registered with SSSC. I've got two nieces and one nephew who who I also take care of regularly and spend a lot of time with. Due to my job I am fully disclosed. Ideally I’m looking for a family who needs help from 5pm onwards during the week, weekend anytime and school holiday help as I work Term Time. Thank you.

Reliable and Caring University Student Offering Experienced Childcare, Cooking and Homework Support.
| I’m currently a university student looking to make some extra money through part-time nannying. As the eldest of three siblings, I’ve naturally taken on a childcare role from a young age, which has given me a lot of hands-on experience in caring for and entertaining children of different ages. In addition to helping out within my own family, I’ve also provided childcare and nannying services for close family friends, where I was trusted to look after young children and keep them engaged in fun and educational activities. I have a qualification in chalet cooking, so I’m confident preparing healthy meals and snacks for children, and I’m more than happy to assist with homework or school projects. I’m reliable, responsible. Services I Offer: * General childcare (babysitting or nannying) * Meal preparation (including nutritious meals and snacks) * Homework help and educational support * Creative play and activities * Light housekeeping related to the children (tidying play areas, cleaning up after meals, etc.) I’d love to bring a positive and helpful presence to a family in need of extra support!

I recently graduated from the University of Glasgow and am looking forward to a career in childcare
| Towards the end of high school I child-minded on a weekly basis for a family with a 10 month old baby and a 5 year old girl who were 2 and 6 years old by the time I left for university. I have also coached badminton to children from the ages of 4-17 in classes with up to 24 pupils. Through this, I developed my personal skills with children by ensuring that my teaching method is both interesting and beneficial. Not only did this role require communication and patience, but also an ability to organise and prepare. The classes followed a program that aimed to demonstrate improvement and build on the skills the children had learned and developed in the previous weeks. Finally, I have experience babysitting for multiple different families ranging from 2-10 children at one time.
