Caring experienced nanny/babysitter looking to help a family on an evening or weekend
| I Have different experiences with childcare, I have been a babysitter since the age of 16, when I was 18 I moved to Austria to become an Au Pair for two young children. At university, I was a head coach for a company that go into schools and help disadvantaged children in their studies, I managed the coaches and children as well as tutor a child myself. Over summer 2017, I worked in an International Summer School in London, taking responsibility of groups of children, supervising them at breakfast, lunch, dinner and curfew as well as taking them out on excursions in the mornings or afternoons, I was the assistant activity manager so It was my role to create and run evening activities for the children. While studying at the University of Exeter, I have worked for a family and looked after two boys, aged 13 and 16. I have worked for the family for two years, my role included; picking them up from school, taking them to their activities, supervising homework, making them a home cooked dinner, light household activities such as, hoovering and ironing.

So far so good. We are one week in so it is difficult to assess fully. Samantha's refences were impeccable. She is very presentable, very diligent and caring to whom our boys have taken too quickly."

A Graduate looking for work in the Summer before starting a career in Educational Psychology!
| As a student, I have helped out with babysitting a number of times during holidays since I was 17 for children ages 2-9. I have been recommended numerous times to friends and families for my calm, yet entertaining, approach to child care, however unfortunately a number of these families have either moved, or their children have grown too old to need babysitting! From April until September I am looking for an opportunity to carry this on in-between graduating from Durham University, and starting a degree in educational psychology at York University in late September!

Qualified teacher looking for a more personal child caring experience
| Hello, I am a fully qualified teacher who has just completed a maternity post in a primary school. I qualified two years ago and have taught from Year R all the way up to Y6. During my evenings when I was teaching I decided to tutor and ultimately this was something I found far more rewarding as my strengths as a child care professional are in pastoral care, understanding specific needs of individual children and creating the best possible relationships with a child to help them achieve the best that they can. Because of this I have decided that I would like to work one to one and with smaller groups of children. Please don't hesitate to contact me for more information!
