Energetic, reliable, caring childcarer in Bury.
| Hi there! My name is Dominique and I live in Bury (BL8) area. I have 2 years experience of working with children and young people. I have been a teaching assistant in both primary and secondary schools so I am experienced in working with all ages. I have completed a three month internship with a Barnardo's at a project for homeless young people, organising suitable and enjoyable activities to increase their motivation and self esteem. I have volunteered as an email counselor with the NCPCC's Childline providing support and advice to children and young people in extremely difficult situations. I currently work part time as a tutor and so can be extremely flexible with hours. I am willing to help children with homework for no extra charge. I can provide references and letters of recommendation on request, have a clear and up to date DBS check and a recent pediatric first aid certificate. I have certificates in Safeguarding, Expectations of Behavior, Introductory Work with Autistic Children and Child Psychology. I also have completed course on Health and Safety, Data Protection and Confidentiality. I am currently in the process of completing a Level 3 Home Based Childcare course. Now for the fun stuff: I enjoy sports of just about any kind- my previous military experience means I can keep up with even the most energetic children! I hold a Level 2 Gym Instructor Qualification and have completed a course in Young People's Sport. I encourage an active lifestyle in all children that I work with through providing fun and age appropriate activities and outings. I love doing crafts with children; I have made everything from Easter cards to chocolate sleighs to DIY picture frames so you can expect a present to stick n the fridge when you get home! I believe that cooking with children is a wonderful experience that helps teach children about healthy eating and hygiene. I hold a Level 2 Food Hygiene certificate and am happy to cook the children healthy meals ans snacks. Please note that I do not have a driving license.
