Childcare in Temple Bar

| Hi, I am Anna, I am 19 years old and I minded my little brother (10 years younger than me) since he was born. I offered student tuition for primary schoolers when I was older, so I have experience in teaching and creative learning. I also spent one year as an AuPair near Paris, where I cared for two children (3 and 6). I walked them to school abd picked them up, helped with homework, cooked (sometimes with them), did night housework, and did loads of indoor and outdoor activities with them. I also took care of up to 4 children when they had friends over. We spent a one week holiday without the parents, which taught me so much responsiblity, self-reliance and confidence in all possible situations. What I love most about childcare is that every day is different and that we have fun together, it's not a one-way road! I love being creative, telling and hearing stories, inventing games and being invited to new ideas and imaginary worlds. ^^

| One of my proudest accomplishments is graduating from Snowball the snow monster to Olaf, as decreed by a rather precocious 4year old. Every family member was a designated Frozen character, and to be Olaf was a high honor; weeks of chalk drawings, snacks, and playing make-believe had culminated in this momentous moment. In all seriousness, I have spent years baby sitting and nannying all ages, from 4-month-old twins to pre-teens (though my favorite age is 0-1!). I can cook a full dinner with an infant strapped to my chest and a two-year-old sprinting circles around my legs (which I really think should be an Olympic sport), name at least 2/3 of the most common dinosaurs, and even draw a half-decent cartoon princess. I am additionally certified in CPR (adult and infant) through the American Red Cross. Outside of childcare: I am originally from California, but currently a Master’s student studying at Trinity College. I also do wedding and family photography, play a handful of sports, love pets, speak Italian, and bake some excellent cinnamon rolls. Would love to chat with you about how I may be able to help your family!

| My name is Xin , and I'm a first year medical student at the Royal College of Surgeons Ireland. Pediatrics and working with children has always been a great passion of mine, hence this job and the many other part-time positions I have had in regards to childcare. I also volunteer a lot with children, both within the hospital and beyond. I grew up babysitting my two brothers, and I held several part time babysitting jobs back in my country (Malaysia) up until the past year, when I moved to Dublin. I have cared for children under 5 months old and those older as well. I'm pretty easy-going, and I am willing to do anything I can to help. I'm okay with pets (in fact, I am a HUGE animal lover). I look forward to meeting with you! :)
