Debra
Babysitter in Gunnislake
My Summary
About Me
Hi my name is Debra. I live in Gunnislake and have two grown up children and two grandchildren.
I have worked with children throughout my career spanning over 30 years and currently share my working week between a preschool and school agency. I have experience with special needs and babies and am available for regular/local evening/weekend babysitting. I am also considering a part time nanny position depending on which days and hours required.
I hold an NVQ3 qualification in Early Years & Childhood Development, with over 30 years experience across different practices, First Aid, Health & Safety, Behavioural Management and Child Protection certificates.
Alongside this, I have both a degree and Masters qualification in Fine Art and sometimes give private tuition to GCSE and A Level students. Painting is one of my passions and attend a portrait painting class each week. I also run a small craft group each month in Gunnislake .
I can provide an excellent CV and references on request.
Thank you for your time
