Babysitters in Gateshead

| Hola! My name is Maria and I am a 25yo Spanish girl from Andalusia. I have been living in the UK for almost 4 years now. I work as a part-time Spanish teacher at University while pursing a PhD in Hispanic Studies as well. I love being active and busy that's why I love spending time with children, they have so much energy! I am the older of all my cousins so I have been babysitting even when I was a teenager and I have always taken care, played and helped them with their homework. While I was studying both my degree and my Masters I spent my summer breaks (3 months) working as an Au pair (First in Italy with 3 kids (5, 8, 11yo; and then in Switzerland with one kid - 9yo) I love playing all kinds of sports, I love board games and I absolutely love pets in case you have one too. I only work part-time from October to May for the academic period, and I am completely free from May to September I am happy to tutor them, also teach them languages ( I speak Spanish, Italian and French) and I love cooking. I am a very organized and tidy person so if you need help with some chores I am more than happy to give you a hand.

| I am very active and the children would not get bored with me. I have studied arts and would like children to learn to draw or paint with me. I am attentive, punctual and friendly.

| I am currently in sixth form studying for my Education and early years Level 3 qualification and having developed a real interest in working with children i would like to work as a babysitter. I already have experience working with children! Whilst working as part of the early years team within a primary school setting. Specifically I have worked closely in Year 1 and reception classes. I then moved on to work in a private day nursery, looking after children aged 0-2. These work placements have shown me how to work closely with children and set out fun and engaging activities to help spark their interests and creativity! I am comfortable working with pets and I'm available most afternoons/evenings and weekends! If you have any questions regarding my experience working with children or my availability please feel free to contact me!! :)

| I studied Child and Youth Care with Addictions Counselling and suicide intervention. I worked in social work but was given an opportunity to work in private childcare and tutoring and loved the opportunity to create my own lessons for children individually and watch them grow in a positive and encouraging environment provided as a team from both parent and myself. I continued private child care for the past 9 years. My philosophy is to provide an encouraging and positive environment to promote confidence and independence in children.

| Hey! My name is Charlotte and I am 22 years old.. in the past I have looked after kids for my friends and doing so I’ve learned how to bath them/feed them based of my pre planned list which will ensure everything I need to know is there.. I.e allergies, medication etc I had a job previously at a bakery but got laid of as I’m expecting a baby and I’m hoping by doing this will not also prepare me for my child but it will also give me the opportunity to learn new things

| I’m a mam myself and have a 2 year old daughter, I worked in a community project for my work experience, working in a Nursery, after school club, I’ve been baby sitting since I was 16 years old but I have only counted 2 years on my profile due to being a parent for 2 years
