About Me

I grew up in a little town in Northamptonshire (lots of farms) where everybody knows everybody. I have 3 older siblings (28, 31 and 34) and three beautiful nieces and nephews. I am currently an undergraduate, studying English Literature. I want to be a teacher someday, whether it be primary or secondary I’m not too sure. I adore children and love helping to shape them into the best people they can be.

My Experience

Babysitter - within the family:
I worked whenever they needed me to, mostly it was helping my mum out with the grandkids because she was unable to look after them herself. When my niece was a baby, I would always be the one getting up with her at 3/4 am doing the morning feed and putting her back to sleep.

Babysitter - outside of family:
I used to look after two kids ages 2 and 6 after school for my friend's mum. I would have to entertain the little one for a few hours tire him out for bed and help the older one finish his homework and reading tasks. I would always have to make them dinner as well, which varied from chicken nuggets to lasagna.

Volunteer:
I travelled to India with the support of a charity called Salt of The Earth. They help small NGOs in South-Western India to provide shelter, meals and education to children aged between 4-12. These children are referred to as ‘nobodies’ in the eyes of the Indian Government - they don’t even have birth certificates. So I went out there with a group of us to spend time with these kids and see firsthand their living conditions. The children, despite having nothing to their name, are so happy and joyous and love the smallest of things like colouring books. We were there for a week but despite the short amount of time, they became part of me.
