My Summary
About Me
I am very reliable positive person; bilingual, I have teacher's qualifications back overseas. Worked as a teacher for many years (among 4-15 years age group). Languages/art/handwriting/maths/craft/cooking /teaching– are my strong points.
My Experience
My main approach: learn new skills by play, game, by example, not pressurise the child but make him interested in what he is doing, prise every his little effort and motivate him to do a next step to learn this wonderful World.. I do believe kids are all genius, you just need to find that talent and develop it. Together with parents I use all my skills and experience to find that talent given him by nature.
BABBYSITTER: I have a big experience with babies and toddlers. I sing the songs, lullabies, feed them, read them (I have a huge collection of children's books with wonderful illustrations), teach them new words, play with them and gradually use a Montessori approach. Your child will be safe and very well looked after. I will help mommy with cooking and always adapt my approach with parents' personal approach. I am flexible and always listen to the parents. Kids adore me.
NANNY: I am an experienced teacher and worked as a teacher for many years (7-15 years age group). With the help of parents your child will hit the milestones, will be happy, loved and safe.

We used Katie for a few days whilst we were visiting. Our son had a great time with a mix of being out and about and playing with the numerous toys that Katie brought to our house each day. Communication was easy and all went smoothly.

Yekaterina looked after our son Alex since he was 8 months old until he started daycare (for 5 months). Her dedication and love to children shone through in every interaction. She has lots of experience and she's truly passionate about kids.

We had Kati as an ad-hoc babysitter during a short visit to Cambridge, and she was a real help to our family. Over three days, she assisted my wife in looking after our two young children (aged 4 and 6), and made things run much more smoothly.
Kati was kind, easy to be around, and quickly built a nice rapport with the kids – they really enjoyed spending time with her. She was thoughtful and hands-on, which gave us some welcome breathing room during our stay.
We’re grateful for her help and would happily recommend her to others looking for a caring and reliable babysitter.
