Warm and friendly children’s counsellor looking for some extra income!
| Hi there! I am a 27 year old professional who already works with children on a day to day basis. Situated in a primary school I am part of the pastoral team and a counsellor for the children there. I have been working in primary schools for over four years now working within mainly SEN and SEMH roles. I am fully DBS checked, have the proof for this as well as numerous other emotional qualifications where I've learnt to connect and help children. I am fun, friendly and most of all approachable. I'm mainly available for weekend and evening babysitting however when it is summer and half term I am free for all sorts of care and happy for long-term placements. Rather than just babysitting your child I am happy to plan activities around mindfulness and nurture if that is of interest! I am also happy doing light housework, cooking and putting children to bed. Feel free to message me on here and get to know me more :)

Young, experienced babysitter catering to the OX1 area.
| Hello I'm Yolanda, I am a young, independent baby sitter from the local area looking to provide babysitting, care and basic childminding to children aged 4-11. I have previously worked in a childcare setting at my local primary school, and have picked up a wealth of knowledge in caring for early years children as well as obtaining all the relevant training and qualifications. I have also dabbled in casual babysitting, for family and friends. So I have hands on experience with working outside of a school routine i.e. putting kids to bed, homework help and play. I come from an art and design background and love to encourage children to express themselves through all forms of art as well as nurture any interests they may have. I am currently a student at Oxford Brookes doing an undergrad in graphic design, but I would love the opportunity to build upon my current babysitting experience alongside my studies. My ethos is to create a warm, welcoming environment for your children so that they can feel safe and supported but also be free to articulate themselves and be independent. I hope to hear from you!
