An energetic babysitter with years of experience working with children with complex needs
| Thank you for looking at my profile, it really means a lot you to take the time to look. If you are looking for someone who can provide professional level high fives then you have reached the right place...I can play games ( not limited to Jenga, puzzles, or dolls) until it's bed time and also make sure your little ones brush their teeth before they nod off! I'm happy to be there to take your little ones to school or pick them up from school, whatever your needs are. I can cook, clean and i have a full clean driving license so I can drive your children to and from where they need to be. I have worked within a residential child care setting as well as working as a student mentor and worker during my time at university. I have a professional background of working with children which I'll explain now: I have gained training in safeguarding , self harm, CPR , epilepsy awareness and prevent training. I have a CRB check which was given to me for my role working with children, and I happy to get another one if you need me to.
