About Me

I'm a friendly, reliable university graduate. I can babysit flexible weekday hours for up to 2 kids aged 4+. I'm happy to nanny regularly up to 9 hours per week, however I'm not registered or able to drive.

Activities I can do with kids:
• I studied fine art and textiles at school and fashion at university so I can give art advice and inspiration to budding artists.
• I love sport and over the years I have regularly taken part in tennis, netball, football, rugby, hockey and dance. I'd be able to challenge kids to mini sporting competitions and tire them out for bed!
• I took many exams in violin and singing. I have performed on stage in a quartet, orchestra and choir. I have a very basic ability at the piano too. I would enourage children to practice any musical instrument.
• I enjoy reading to kids and can help them improve their reading and figure out new words. I was a straight A student and am happy to help with homework. I am able to be patient too.

My Experience

I have experience nannying and entertaining younger family members, as well as tutoring and volunteer afterschool care.

2024: After school nanny - I have spent 2 years taking care of a 10/11 year old girl, including picking her up from school, heating up her dinners, and keeping her entertained.
2017: Tutoring - I was hired for a few months through my school to tutor maths once a week. I gave 1-1 help to a 13 yr old boy with his class work or homework. It was a subject he struggled with so it taught me patience.
2014: Afterschool Club - I volunteered at Boxgrove afterschool club once a week for a few months. The children were aged 4-7. They mostly asked me to read to them or draw with them. One sweet little boy would come up to me every week and another girl gave me a picture she drew. I really enjoyed looking after the kids as they bring such liveliness.
Ongoing: Cousins - My cousins are 10 and 12 yr old girls but I have spent time with them since they were born. I keep them entertained so their parents can get some rest. The older one has reached a sassy age and likes drawing, which I encourage. The younger one likes to perform dances and cartwheels and waits for applause.
Ongoing: Younger brother - my brother developed anxiety and panic attacks while he was still at school so I have experience in staying calm and being responsible.
