Right now I am looking for:

•Casual babysitting

•Ongoing regular babysitting

•Before school care

•Morning-midday care

{All of the above: to fit in with my current job schedule}

*NOTE: the family I work for; are aware of all of these actions I am taking, with looking for extra work.

Now about me - I have been providing childcare on & off over the past 22 years. The last 8 of those; I have been a Full-time Nanny.

I was an Au Pair in Paris in 2016, however I started child caring in 2002 when I was 14: for my, then, piano teacher’s son. I cared for him 3 days a week, (after school) from the age of 2-8, while his mother worked: I had to master the skill of noise level control!

Once I was 16 I began to babysit for other families during the evenings and weekends.

I babysat casually between my part-time job and my studies 2006-2009. Between 2010-2016 I would assist as a mother's helper when asked, whilst working 4 jobs and trying to find my path in this world, by families that knew me, or who were referred: until I left for Paris that is!

In 2017 I used this site to find causal & part-time carer positions. Eventual I found an amazing family to work for, as a full-time Nanny, I was with them from July 2017-July 2020. When it no longer made sense for me to be there whilst they worked from home, and the 3 girls couldn’t do their extra curricula’s because of lockdowns.

The next Family, was a family of 4; a boy- 9 years old & a girl - 7 years old, providing before and after school care 5 days a week from Jan 2021-Sept 2021.

From Sept 2021-present; I have been working F/T with another Family of 4: 2 boys; 5 & 8 years old.

I can prepare meals (with care for diet requirements: vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, lactose free etc), supervise homework, shower/bath time, oral hygiene and attend the bedtime routine. I always have an activity up my sleeve: centred around their age, and enjoy baking with children. I believe in tiding/cleaning as you go, this is ingrained, I have also assisted with transportation for: school drop-off/pick-up, extra curricular activities, play dates & excursions. I have do light house duties related to the children, and house manger tasks.

If you have read this far, I look forward to receiving a message from you. ☺️
