My Summary
About Me
Hello :) I am returning to work for 2 days a week as a Play Therapist, following maternity leave after having my first baby.
I am wondering if anyone is looking for wrap around childcare for their school aged children that I could help with, and bring my 9 month old baby with me.
I have worked with children since I was 16 in all different roles such as nanny, au pair, nursery practitioner, family support worker, teaching assistant at an SEN school and now Play Therapist.
I am so keen to return to this role but it would be fab to find work where I can bring my baby too. He is a very happy and chill baby though he is now on the move! He tends to nap in the morning and early afternoon.
My Experience
I have been a nanny and au pair when I was younger. I had a gap year and was an au pair for two boys aged 4months and 2 years in Sydney, Australia. I then returned to Sydney and worked with this lovely family two summers in a row when I was studying my degree in Birmingham. I also worked with a family with two boys aged 1 and 4 years over the summer and as an ad hoc nanny while I worked as a Teaching Assistant. I feel comfortable and confident in the day to day care of young children, I have experience with some special additional needs and school aged children. I use creatively and play in all that I do.
In the past I have worked with children and young people in a mental health information and advice capacity. Before this, I was a Teaching Assistant in a special needs school. And I started my career working in nurseries. My undergraduate degree was in Early Childhood Studies in Birmingham City.
I have learnt a great deal from all the children, families and colleagues about what compassionate care looks like and I take these lessons with me in the way I work and making plans for the future.
