Celeste
Babysitter in London: Hounslow
My Summary
About Me
I am a 29-year-old multilingual woman (English, Italian, Swedish, Mandarin) based in Chiswick, West London, who works as an Actress, Influencer, Academic Writer and Interpreter.
I have 15+ years' experience as a babysitter.
I am very intellectual and a loud advocate for feminism, women and children. I devote passionate research and speaking time - through my influencing - to the topics of women's career-sphere, motherhood and the intersectionality between women's freedom and providing for children as a natural part of womanhood.
On children, specifically, one of my most treasured topics - that I am writing some talks on - is children's health, in particular their relationship to food, movement and their body.
I absolutely ADORE children and I wish to protect every one of them through my feminism and work. I grew up in Italy and Sweden, where family is at the forefront of culture and with two siblings, one of which is 11 years younger than me and that I often looked after since I was 10. I have also lived in China for one year, an experience that consecrated my value for family even further.
I have recently also published an Italian translation of a book for children of 4-10 years of age: 'Sandy Shores - Rive Sabbiose: A Bilingual Beach Adventure!' - available online in stores such as Waterstones, Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Akademikbohandeln.
I am looking for EVENING / NIGHT (REGULAR/EMERGENCY) work as a babysitter, to support my eclectic and bustling creative career that I focus on during the day: auditions, writing, content creation, promotional or networking events I am invited to as an Influencer.
