About Me

I am always inspired by children's' enthusiasm, positivity, and spirit; anytime with a child is never boring. I always try to engage children in educationally infused games and activities. Creativity is something that most adults lack, and I am always in awe of the infinite amount of games and activities that children are able to establish. I am a psychology student at the moment, and developmental psychology is something I was always inclined towards, and I love learning about how children develop cognitively, as well as emotionally.

My Experience

I have worked with children of all ages; ranging from infants of 6 months, to 9 year olds. In addition, I have worked in classroom settings with children in EYFS, year 1, and year 2. In my experience working in classrooms, I have had the wonderful opportunity to work with special needs children, and seeing their growth and progress throughout the school year was one of the most rewarding experiences I have witnessed. In addition, I have experience babysitting, and it was always fun to not only allow but also encourage children to be creative and come up with their own games.

My Qualifications

Current: Educational Psychology Assistant
MA in Psychology
4 A-levels in: Greek, History, Literature, and Psychology.
7 IGCSEs in: Greek, History, Literature, Language, Geography, Maths, and Art.

Mary has looked after my 18 month son quite regularly for nearly 2 months now, and she is brilliant with him! She's very good at keeping to my schedule and uses her initiative as well. He's happy to spend the day with her whilst I'm working, and she gives him all his meals and snacks, puts him down for naps and takes him out for a walk as well. I will definitely continue to use her and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone!

Mary has looked after my 18 month old son a number of times now and is brilliant with him. He absolutely adores her, and knows her as Friendly Mary! She is very kind and caring and obviously loves children and spending time with them. I have no worries or concerns when leaving my son with her as she is honest and proactive. Mary has cared for my son at home, but has also taken him out on days when I needed time alone at home. Mary is also very flexible and adaptable to different childcare settings and has been understanding and helpful when I have needed urgent or last minute babysitting. I am so glad that I met Mary and would not hesitate to recommend her.
