My Summary
About Me
I pride myself on my emotional intelligence and empathetic nature. I am patient, kind and fair. I have a one year-old niece and a three year-old nephew that keep me on my toes but bring me so much joy. Aside from that, I have a wealth of experience looking after kids of all ages, having volunteered for many different charitable organizations while living in the USA.
I love children and being a part of their growth and development, even if it is in the smallest of capacities.
I currently work as a department head for the reservations team of a large hospitality group which keeps me busy. I'm looking for extra evening and weekend shifts to help bolster my income and I love being around children, so this seems like the perfect opportunity!
My Experience
I have a lot of baby sitting experience looking after babies to 9 year olds. Most commonly, I’ve looked after kids that are 2 to 5 years old and I love it! I worked for families with 2-3 children out in the US over a number of years. I currently look after my 14 month-old niece and 3 year old nephew, who are both a handful.
I’ve also volunteered running “healthy hero” workshops at a local youth centre whilst at university in the US and mentored a 14 year old girl for two years whilst living there. I would take her kayaking and to get her nails done. She didn’t get a lot of special treatment at home, so it was great to give her some one to one time where the attention was on her.
My Qualifications
I am first aid certified and have a Level 3 hockey coaching qualification with USA Field Hockey.
