Babysitters in Stafford

| My name is Maisie and I am looking for a babysitting job to earn extra money to support myself during my time at university. However, I can only work in Stoke-on-Trent due to university requirements. I was with a childminder after school from age 2 to age 10 so I know the expected care. I have a BTEC Diploma Level 3 Childcare and Education qualification from my time at college which gave me the wonderful opportunity to have placements in a day nursery (1 year) and in a reception class within a primary school (7 months), so my experience is generally around ages 6 months to 5 years old. My time in placement at the primary school was cut short due to the current Covid-19 pandemic. The university course that I am enrolled on is a Primary Teaching BA (Hons) course. The extra experience I gain from babysitting and helping with homework would be extremely beneficial for myself and your child/children.

| Hi, my name is samantha most people call me sammie. I am a mum of 3 boys 2yo 8yo and an 11yo, they certainly keep me in my toes. Iv come on here to help other parents, give them a couple of hours child free for a bit of me time or date nights. I can do most evenings and weekend.

| I have a strong desire to care for vulnerable young people. Being neurodiverse, I am able to provide heartfelt care, focus and deep empathy to many areas of work. Being autistic, I spent a large amount of my time in later education in a Learning Support environment. During this time, I formed friendships with people aged 11-18 with a variety of disabilities, e.g. Down’s Syndrome, Cerebal palsy and autism. I spent time daily over these 3 years mentoring a student who has Down’s syndrome, taking part in tasks such as role play, reading, spelling tests, art work, crafts and emotional support. I absolutely loved it and immediately knew that working with disabled children was something I wished to continue into a career. As I have been through the education system undiagnosed and diagnosed autistic (diagnosed at 15), I have comprehensive understanding of the struggles and methods in which can help prevent anxieties in disabled children. Whilst using my experience, I would always ensure each person is treated as an individual, taking into account their opinions, desires and needs. I previously volunteered at a Rainbow guide group, working closely with a group of 4-5 year olds assisting with tasks and providing emotional support.
