Lauren has been working for me for 16 months and has been such a great presence in our lives. She has been caring for my children since one was 5 months and the other was 2yrs 10 months old. I have found her very competent and I never have a moment's worry about the safety of my children with her. Lauren is absolutely reliable, always precisely on time, full of energy and fun. She has a lovely manner, calm, gentle, friendly and polite. She loves taking the children for days out and helps them make friends to play with. Lauren is very robust and undaunted by bad weather - she is always suitably dressed and makes sure the children are as well, and then heads out for fresh air and exercise. She likes to plan fun activities and is very organised. I would absolutely recommend her as someone your kids will have fun with and learn great manners and social skills from."

I have 17 years experience as a nanny/housekeeper and in nurseries.
| My name is Danielle and I am 33 years old. I am a level 4 qualified and experienced Early Years Educator. I have worked in childcare for 17 years. 11 years in nurseries and 6 years as a nanny. After 2 wonderful years i have just finished working with a little boy who has cerebral palsy. I have gained so much knowledge and experience working with him. I took him to OT meetings, Speech and language meetings, TAC meetings and many more. Every morning i had to massage his joints and follow a strict routine from physiotherapist. I also fed him meals and did some personal care. I ensured that all activities were adaptable for him to enjoy. We went on some great adventurers as he loved being outdoors. This came to end as he has gone to school. I have previously worked for a lovely family of 3. 2 year old twins and a 5 year old. My duties included some housekeeping duties such as a weekly shop, cleaning, changing beds, making healthy nutritious meals and some personal assistant jobs. I also prepared breakfast for the 3 children, took the eldest to school and then went to groups in the morning. After lunch we did some art and craft activities, baking, go for a walk, have fun at the park, play with puzzles, toys etc.

Bubbly and trustworthy 20 year old University Student looking for babysitting opportunities
| I’m a 20 year old university student, I’ve got a younger sister who I have done a lot of childcare for in the past, I’m able to help out with any homework, put the kids to bed, clean/tidy and cook any meals that may need cooking. I go to University in Cardiff but I’m looking for jobs based in Paignton (where I’m from) and I am always available when I’m home from University. I’m just starting so I do not have any professional references/qualifications relating to babysitting/childcare but I’ve worked in retail for five years and have 11 GCSES and four A Levels. As aforementioned I have done a lot of childcare for my sister/my sister and her friends since a pretty young age. I’m extremely trustworthy and responsible, and I can guarantee that your children are safe with me. I even have some old books and dvds that I’m willing to donate!
