Babysitter, Nanny, Au Pair in Canal - Glasgow G22
| Hello! I'm Chloe, a very outgoing, reliable and trustworthy 24 year old. Although I do not have a qualification in childcare, I have had a lot of experience with kids of all ages. From a young age I have always been passionate about this career and when I was 13 I worked in a Creche based in a 5* Resort in Portugal. Since then I have had various babysitting posts, one looking after 3 children aged 6, 2 and 6 months. I regularly have sole charge of my nieces and nephews also who are aged 5, 3 and 14 months. Since moving to Glasgow a year and a half ago, I worked for an agency caring for individuals with brain injuries and long term illness, I left this to pursue a childcare role and most recently I was looking after a little boy with special needs in his own home for 12 hours a week but it just wasnt enough hours eventually. I hold a current PVG which covers children and adults and I also hold various certificates such as epilepsy. I have done a First Aid course with the agency I worked for but unfortunately they do not give certificates so I would be willing to obtain this again. I also hold a clean driving license and can provide you with excellent references too. If you have any questions please dont hesitate to contact me.

Lover of the Arts and Activities Nanny/Babysitter
| I have five years of experience working with young children as a volunteer teacher and nanny. Whilst nannying I really enjoy being able to make a personal connection with each child I look after and plan fun activities around their interests. I often like to plan themed weeks around different topics — it might be outer space, butterflies, or a specific country. To me, the sky is the limit and it's all about what engages your child. I have also loved to spend time cooking or baking with those I looked after and plan exciting days outside (museums, petting zoo, etc.) I am also a visual artist and have degrees in music performance and education. Each of these skill sets is something I bring to my childcare work and I am also happy to provide tutoring in any of these areas. Previously, I have nannied children aged 2-7 and worked as a volunteer teacher with students up to age 16. I am excited to meet you! Please let me know if you have questions - Cameron

Affectionate, reliable, fun and energetic nanny/babysitter!
| I'm an Archaeology MPhil student at UoG. In my spare time I love to cook, bake, paint, read and travel. Most importantly, I adore spending time with children, and have a natural talent for coaxing even the shyest ones out of their shells. I have a lot of experience in childcare: For three and a half years I was a Teaching Assistant in a secondary school. I found that I had a real connection with the students, and helped to increase GCSE results by 13.5% within a year. After this, I got promoted to a Level 2 TA, working in the school's autism unit. I have a lot of experience with special needs on top of this: My younger brother has Asperger's Syndrome, and I have also worked with a young girl with Down's Syndrome. I have taught Spanish, started an English as a Foreign Language club for, and run a lunch-time art club for the students. After this, I became an au pair to twin five year old boys in Rome, providing every level of care to them. On top of this, I teach English in Florence annually. I have also been the regular babysitter (including overnight) for a family with three young children, two of whom I have babysat since they were newborns. I have a DBS certificate.

Caring and reliable
| I am a mum of 1. I have a little girl who is 3. I trained in early education and childcare at college 12 years ago and then went onto work with children in nurseries. However, after qualifying there were no jobs available so I went to work in pharmacy where I am now a pharmacy technician. But I am looking to build back up to being a child minder so I can spend more time with my little girl as well as her being able to spend time with other children. I have been driving for over 10 years. I work within my local church in the Sunday school and holiday club and have a full disclosure Scotland as well as a DBS which was done when I was a girl guide helper. I have experience of working with children with additional needs such as dyslexia, dyspraxia and aspergers. I am currently in the process of registering as a childminder as well.
