My Summary
About Me
Hi, I'm Courtney.
I am currently studying Level 2 Childhood Studies & Psychology with the Open University and have a strong interest in child development, behaviour and supporting children's emotional wellbeing.
I'm a calm, patient and intuitive person, and I naturally connect well with children. I aim to create a safe, consistent and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable, supported and understood.
I have a particular interest in supporting children with additional needs, including ADHD and autism, and I take a gentle, child-centred approach. I also hold a Level 2 Certificate in Awareness of Mental Health Problems, which strengthened my understanding of emotional wellbeing and how to support children in a sensitive and informed way.
I'm friendly, reliable and easy to get along with, and I'm looking for part-time babysitting or mother's help roles where I can provide attentive and caring support.
My Experience
I have previous babysitting experience, including caring for children of different ages and managing routines independently. I have completed overnight stays, caring for two 11-year-old twins and a younger child, supporting with evening routines, supervision and creating a calm, safe environment.
I also completed a babysitting course with Cambridgeshire County Council when I was younger, which gave me a good foundation in basic childcare and safety.
Alongside this, I am currently studying Level 2 Childhood and Youth Studies & Psychology with the Open University, where I am developing a strong understanding of child development, behaviour, and emotional wellbeing. I have also completed training in SEN (including ADHD, autism and dyslexia) and hold a Level 2 Certificate in Awareness of Mental Health Problems.
I also have personal experience supporting a child with additional needs, which has given me a deeper understanding of patience, routine, emotional regulation and adapting to individual needs.
I bring a calm, patient and reliable approach, and I am confident in supporting children with play, routines, and creating a safe and positive environment. I am always happy to adapt to each child's individual needs.
