My Summary
About Me
Hello,
My name is Lara. I'm of Portuguese nationality and I've been living and working in the UK as a childminder for more than 10 years now, with children aged from 1 to 12 years old.
I'm now looking for a 'live-out' full-time/part-time job (from Monday to Friday) and occasional babysittings (weekdays and weekends). I can do housework as well as I have long experience with it. I have very good references to provide, which I’ll disclose only under request after a brief first interview.
I can tell about me that I'm loving and caring, communicative, self-disciplined, fun and reliable. I love pets. I speak fluent English, but also Spanish, French and Portuguese, my native language. I see myself as being highly organised and responsible.
I am an OFSTED registered childminder/nanny which means you’ll be able to apply for tax-free childcare under the Government Help Scheme for families, if you’re eligible.
I only work under fully legal conditions with responsible employers who are committed to fulfil their legal duties regarding written work contracts (be them permanent, renewable, temporary or occasional) and PAYE/Payroll system, with the usual tax contributions to HMRC (Income Tax and National Insurance). Working out of these conditions is illegal in the UK, hence I don’t do illegal out-of-contract work. I don’t do free trials either, not as childcarer, not as a housekeeper, unless I offer them myself.
In case you're interested, I'm available for a short interview. References and background check can be provided under request after the initial interview.
My Experience
Experience of over 10 years with children of all ages, the youngest being 12 months old at the start and the eldest 12 years old, mainly from British, European (German and French) and American families. Chores usually involved morning and after school care with collection from school but also babysitting when necessary, preparation of meals and school guidance (or tutoring). Playing, entertaining and general childcare.
My Qualifications
College graduate in Business and Management. OFSTED communication core skills, fully prepared to deal with children.

Available. First interviews can be done using FaceTime or Zoom

Lara has been working for me , 12 hours per week, as a housekeeper. She is really good at her job & I feel so relieved that my house is getting back to what it was prior to my having a baby.
Lara is a thorough & committed worker & I highly recommend her.
