My Experience

Dear family,

My name is Astrid and I'm so excited to know each other and be able to know more about you!

This is a quick resume about my childcare experience:

From September 2016 to June 2017 I was an au pair with a french family in San Sebastian (North of Spain, close to France), I was finishing my Grade in Tourism, I spent 9 months with them and I had a wonderful experience. After that I decided to study abroad to learn english and help my career. I spent 2 years in Seattle, WA, USA, and I worked as a babysitter to earn some extra money while I was studying. After I came back to Spain I decided to apply for a flight attendant position, I did a flight attendant training from September 2019 and finished it successfully at the end of February but the Covid19 changed my plans. Looking for better opportunities I decided to apply for a nanny position in the UK, get to know other countries and culture. I chose to be a nanny because I had a great experience and I love children. I’m currently working with a wonderful family as a full time nanny so I am only interested in do babysitting during the weekends.

I've been working with kids since 6 years ago, always SOLE CHARGE.
The age of the kids I took care of are around 2-11 years old.

My daily routine with them was: wake them up, cook breakfast and get them ready for school (pack lunch boxes if they need one or some snacks, drive them to school or bus stop, pick the kids from school, drive them to activities, supervise that they do their homework, I also took them to the park, to the beach, to the swimming pool, library, picnics etc. I have experience driving and I love to do it. I have Spanish driving license and I use to drive in my daily life, or even in other countries when I travel. Continuing with the tasks I did with the kids: do their baths or just supervise, depending on the age, cook dinner for them.

I can also help your kids with Spanish if you wish.

MY EXPECTATIONS:

Respect for each other is very important for me. I can adapt easily and be flexible. I expect good communication.


I'm a really clean person, I will keep the kids stuff tidy or I would supervise the kids organising or help me, I think is a right thing to do for them (depends on the age).

Trust is very important for both. We would be a team and we would talk openly about any problem.

My Qualifications

I have studied guide, information and tourist assistance and I have a cabin crew certificate (This includes first aid). I have been working with kids for 6 years. I have arrived to UK in September 2020.

My Availability

ONLY WEEKENDS OR BABYSITTING. I am currently working as a full time nanny in Central London with a lovely family.
