My Summary

My Experience

I’ve got quite a wide experience in childcare. I started looking after children at the age of 14 when my sister was born . At the time , I would do weekend/summer babysitting/nannying to numerous kids of different ages, and for the past 5 years I’ve been working with children full time. I’ve also been an Au pair 3 times(Ireland, Spain & UK) from 2019-2021. All unforgettable experiences!

Whilst gaining all of that valuable experience, I got the chance to learn how to actively and effectively care for infants, toddlers and young kids without necessarily studying it .

Due to dealing with different ages I have been able to learn what each one of the individuals I look after need . Generally engaging with each child and giving them attention and time is my primary responsibility. Other additional duties depending on age mainly include organising/supervising indoor and outdoor activities which can help in their physical and mental development (playing, reading books , walking , cycling, singing etc ) , assisting with homework, light meal preparation, bathing , getting them ready for naps/bedtime and generally maintain their daily routine.
