My Summary

My Experience

The families I have cared for have ranged from 3 months old - 13 years old. I have cared for up to four children at one time.

Throughout my Health and Social Care training I carried out placements which involved children of various ages. I spent a lot of time working in Reception, Year One and Year Two classes assisting the teachers, working with the children during both class time and play time and also carried out one to one sessions with children who needed more support and attention.

During my nursing degree I trained in a centre which cared for children from new born up until pre-school age. Here I took part in feeding, meal times, play times, story times, sensory play, nap time and also dealt with upset, distressed children leaving their parents.
Throughout nursing I spent time at a school which was specialised to children diagnosed with autism. Here I spent time in the classroom with several children an also accompanied trips outside of the classroom such as swimming.

All families I have dealt with over the past five years while babysitting have become a big part of my life and vice versa. I was able to develop a trusting relationship with both the children and parents by caring for them on a regular basis. These hours have now become available since family childcare needs have changed and my two regular families eldest children have grown up.
