Babysitting / Childminding:
I have been babysitting on a regular basis ever since I moved back to Hull in 2022.
During this time I have looked after children for 5 different families ranging from a 2 year old girl to a 13 year old boy.
Responsibilities have included collecting children from after school clubs, keeping them entertained with games and taking them to the park, helping with homework, feeding and putting to bed.

I have worked with all age groups from Playgroup through to Year 6 (2-11 Yrs) with the majority of my time spent in Early Years and KS1 (Reception, Year 1 and Year 2).

For the past 5 Years I have also been a part of the SEN department working with children who have autism and other mild learning difficulties and have undertaken several training courses regarding special educational needs, child welfare and safeguarding.
