About Me

Hi, my name's Allie! I'm currently a student at Bristol University studying Theatre and Film looking for some childcare work. I’m an enthusiastic and motivated student with a deep passion for working with kids. My upbeat attitude and strong work ethic drive me to create positive, engaging experiences for the children I work with. I thrive on building connections, making learning fun, and ensuring each child feels valued and supported. I’m an active individual who loves to stay involved, whether it’s leading outdoor activities, organizing games, or finding creative ways to keep kids engaged. Reading is another passion of mine, and I enjoy sharing that love with children, encouraging them to explore new worlds through books. I’m dedicated to making every interaction meaningful, continually striving to exceed expectations, and ensuring that the kids I work with have memorable and enjoyable experiences. Overall, I would say I take great pleasure in looking after children as I find it very rewarding and being able interact and engage with kids where you can eventually form a bond is such a lovely experience.

My Experience

I’ve been babysitting since I was around 14 and have had experience looking after children from ages 2-16. During my gap year I worked as a teaching assistant in a nursery in London for a year. I supported the staff by caring for and engaging with the children, building strong connections through games, songs, and reading. My role was versatile, involving tasks like changing nappies and preparing snacks and lunch. I adapted to the children’s needs, ensuring a nurturing and fun environment where they felt comfortable and happy. During this time I also looked after 2 children aged 8 and 10 where I would pick them up from school, bring them home, help them with their homework or any reading and just generally play with them. Furthermore, from 2019-2023 I coached netball and gymnastics with children ages 5-14, as well as having a Qualification in Level 1 gymnastics coaching. As a coach at Netit (Netball Organisation), I served as a group leader and tournament organiser, working closely with children of all ages. My responsibilities included managing different age groups, coaching tailored skills, umpiring matches, and organising scores into tables. I focused on creating a positive, inclusive environment where kids could develop their skills and have fun. In addition to my love for looking after children, I have also enjoyed tutoring and have previously been an ambassador at a non profit organisation called 'Beyond the Book' which has helped to tutor children during the pandemic. I tutored 3 students and it was a really great experience in lockdown to help those who were struggling.
