Fun Loving nanny/babysitter with knowledge of children and first aid.
| Hello, Ive moved from the states and attend Uni online here. I’m not the average Uni student, I started Uni later in life so I am a bit older. I have lots of experience with children of all age, most currently with little ones from 3 months- 18 months. I was also a medical professional in the US so I have extensive knowledge in first aid. Since being here I have worked for a few families who teach at the university in my current city, so I have current references as well. I’ve worked with little ones on and off for 10+ years. I love the outdoors and any sort of activities that keep me busy ! I’m open to nannying and babysitting.

A kind but firm babysitter with a desire for perfection
| I am an 18 year old university student living in student halls, personally I would describe myself as a kind but firm babysitter. I am comfortable with all ages from my experience babysitting my brothers from ages 2-13 as well as other families children, I did this for two years before going into retail. I have found though that retail was not enjoyable, it was helping the children grow that made me happy.

| Hello! My name is Katerina. In 2018 I graduated from the University of Derby and am looking for a job as a nanny.

| My name is Andreea and I love children. Ever since I was little I always tried to make new friends at the park or at schools. Because I am a people person I always enjoyed being around children. My first experience babysitting was with my niece who is now almost 2 year old. She was only 4 months old when I met her. I was scared because she was so liitle but I got over my fear and gave her warm baths, fed her and played with her. I babysat her for 6 months in which I got to see her grow stronger everyday and play more and more, I witnessed her first crawl which was amazing. Since then I discovered my passion for children and how I want to be around them, playing with them and teach them through games or singing. I have babysat my neighbours children as well ages ranging from 3 to 7.

I have 3 young siblings, a 5, 4 and 2 year old. They mean the absolute world to me and i’ve been a big part of their daily life since the day they were all born! I enjoy spending time with them, i love taking them out and i’ll play fun and educational games with them at home. I’ve been a babysitter for around 8 years and i have plenty of experience with newborns up to around 5 years. The last family i babysat for had 3 children. A newborn, a 3 and 6 year old. Whilst babysitting for this family, i would be on my own caring for them all. I had to prepare milk for the baby, sterilise bottles and change plenty of nappies! I would prepare meals for the two young children and bath them all and get them ready for bed! All whilst bonding with them as much as possible and showering them with cuddles! So i have plenty of experience with very young children! I’m looking at becoming a nanny, however I’m not yet qualified but i can provide plenty of references. Being a nanny is such a huge passion of mine and I can’t wait to start this journey. Please message me! X
