Nanny/babysitter with 5 years of experience - Edinburgh EH10
| Hello! My name is Jessica and I am 24 years old. I have been working with children on a regular basis for the past 5 years. I have recently graduated from the Open University and am also studying towards a HNC/ SQV in childhood practice. I have worked as a part time nanny for the last 2 years as well as a little volunteering at my church's kids club. I have done work experience with health visitors, nurseries and hospitals as well as volunteering at a youth group for children with disabilities. I have a full PVG allowing me to work with children and vulnerable adults in addition to basic first aid skills. I am very flexible regarding hours, please don't hesitate to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you!
Coming in from the US we were a little nervous about hiring a sitter for a few evenings. After many emails back and forth and upon meeting Jessica we knew our children would be in good hands. She was fabulous. It was hard because we were visiting the city and our children weren't in their own home, but Jessica was great at keeping them entertained and on track."

I am a English BA (HONS) graduate who is looking for full time positions.
| I am a punctual, trustworthy and reliable person. I have taken care of my 12 year old cousin along the years since she was a baby. I also have experience with newborn babies from 8 months old . I am interested in full time positions.
Areti is a very reliable nanny. She was always on time and communicated in advance her availability. She had not worked with infants before and she wanted to meet us first before she decided if she would be able to care for our daughter. I appreciated that a lot, it demonstrated her maturity. She was responsible for our daughter a couple of afternoons a week for a few months - she played with her, fed her, took her out for walks etc. We have now secured a place at a nursery but we will be using her again on an ad-hoc basis."

Fun, responsible and professional babysitter and nanny
| I am a sociologist, aged 27, currently living in Newington. I really enjoy the community, family feel in the neighborhood, and would be happy to offer my services as a dedicated Nanny/babysitter. Over the past four years, I have had experiences with children from 1 year to 12 years old. It has always been wonderful opportunities to learn, and it is important to me to maintain a connection with children. I would say I am a responsible and loving person. I have professional training in non-violent communication and education for gender equality, so I always work from these perspectives. I am playful, and am keen to get to know your children inner world, passions and interests. On a more practical level, I can say I am a very pragmatic and organised person. I have worked in several households, and feel confident in answering your family needs and general organisation, be it around cooking, cleaning routine, and so on. I am also very eager to help with homeworks, and we could envision some Spanish initiation or adapted classes :)

Outgoing,Friendly, Hungarian woman!
| For me, there is no nicer thing than listening to the laughter of the ########.#### is not a phrase, it is a sincere self-communication. What skills are mandatory when working with children? I would say: reliability, patient, empathy, preciseness, cooperativeness. I always liked working with children, and from my experience and from the feedbacks, it is proven that I have all the skills above to be an ideal candidate. Now I am searching for an opportunity with your agency, to work in Child Care again. I am comfortable performing in a wide range of job duties, I am able to quickly adapt to new places, people and tasks.

Warm and experienced carer
| Warm, friendly and joyful carer of young children with over 6 years’ experience: au pair, support worker. Certificate pediatric first aider. Montessori Practical Life course. Passionate about working with children. As a childcare worker, I believe childhood happens only one time in the life, so we should protect it and make it special. Currently work in nursery with different ages group and looking for additional work during my free hours.
Aggie has been looking after our 5 year old son with special needs every week for 1.5 years. She became his best friend and forged a very special relationship. She is flexible, does her own research on how to best support him, which toys might interest him and follows his lead even if it means bracing the cold weather or spending loooong afternoons in our house.. My son very much has his own agenda but with a lot of patience and creativity she found a way into his world. Aga takes her job very seriously and has been a lifeline on so many occasions."

Friendly and responsible child care
| While I don't have any formal experience working in child care, I am eager to learn and grow in this field. I have always enjoyed spending time with children and find it incredibly rewarding to engage with them and help them learn and grow. I am a patient, kind, and nurturing person with a strong work ethic and a willingness to take on new challenges. I understand the importance of providing a safe, fun, and stimulating environment for children to thrive in, and I am committed to doing everything I can to ensure that children in my care feel happy, comfortable, and supported. I am a quick learner and am eager to receive any training or guidance needed to excel in this role. I believe that my positive attitude, compassion, and enthusiasm make me a great fit for a child care role, and I am excited to contribute to the well-being of the children in my care.
The only Kat your Dog will Absolutely love is Kat! Kat has watched our mini Dachshund Olly for the last two days so we could tour around Edinburgh. Kat sent us photos of Olly enjoying his day, her messages and Ollys joy at seeing her each day made us feel we left our baby in the right caring and loving hands. She is a fantastic communicator and will love your pet likely just like you would. If I lived here she would be my go to pet sitter. If she is available to watch your pet I would grab her. Kat also did a beautiful drawing of Olly that had my wife in tears."

Let us sacrifice our today so that our children can have a better tomorrow.
| When I was 8 years old my sister was born and since then I was the one who took care of her because my parents were so busy all the time. I cooked for her, washed her, have fun and all that kind of stuff. I really derived great pleasure sitting and taking care of children. Because I enjoy their company, I volunteer to my local church to organise summer camps for children. I organised many activities like painting, drawing, football, badminton and more. The kids were so excited all the time and that made me so happy. It is truly the best feeling in the world!
Starts work soon for us and then will be in a position to rate. Seems competent and very nice which is why we are taking her on!"

Colombian University of Edinburgh student. Looking forward to taking on necessary responsibilities.
| My name is Juliana , and I am a Colombian student that is coming to the University of Edinburgh. I am studying Politics in France, and this year I have the opportunity to come to Scotland as an exchange student. I have a big family with loads of children, I was raised along with two younger sisters and an array of younger cousins. Since I am the eldest child, both in my inner and extended family, I have dealt with children my whole life. My two sisters were born when I was 5 and 7 years old, and I have always been the responsible and caring older sister. I cooked for them, played with them, and helped them with their homework. I love children and have been taking care of them my whole life, I know I would be a perfect fit and would actively enjoy spending time with them. I get along with children really well, and coming from a close and warm family environment, I also regard myself as a worker that would feel highly comfortable and at ease in a family home. I am responsible, caring, hardworking and honest. This job would be a wonderful opportunity for me, since I actively enjoy the tasks that I would be taking on, and it would be an amazing way to increase my experience.
Juliana is lovely, reliable and has been a life saver."

I have experience working with kids from my time as a youth rowing coach. For 4 years, I worked with children and teens age 12-17, teaching them to row crew, cooperate as a team, and build confidence. As an undergraduate, I worked as a Resident Assistant in a first-year dorm. I received training in leadership, safety, and inclusion; I went on to manage a floor of 40 Freshman, maintain Covid-19 safety during the pandemic, and facilitate community-building activities. I decided to join Care.com to find a flexible job that helps pay tuition while I complete my studies. I have CPR certification and crisis management qualifications. Through my social work program, I have received PVG clearance to work with both adults and children. I am passionate about cooking and am comfortable with meal-prep and household cleaning/organization.
