Emma
Babysitter in York
My Summary
About Me
Hello, my name is Emma! I've been caring for children for over 10 years as a teaching assistant and a babysitter. In my free time, you can find me creating art, travelling, and rock climbing. I love working with SEN children. I know American Sign Language, some British Sign Language, and Makaton. I am enthusiastic and motivated to provide not just high-quality care, but teach, encourage, and empower your children!
My Experience
I began working with children as a summer camp counselor. I have taught inside and outside of the classroom including as a rock climbing instructor. I got my BA in Linguistics and Child Development and my MSc in Psycholinguistics which both gave me the academic experience to provide the best care! As a babysitter, I like to use child-directed learning such as exploring outside, developing fine-motor skills, and art! Unlike a typical babysitter, I draw from my experience and academic knowledge to create fun activities and hands-on lessons rather than sit and watch telly. I look forward to meeting you and your children and providing them specialised care!
My Qualifications
I have been working with children for 10 years. I have an enhanced DBS check. I have also completed both my Bachelor's and Master's in Linguistics with a focus on child development. I am trained in Montessori teaching and was raised in a Montessori background. I am comfortable cooking, cleaning, and bathing children. I have experience with special needs including mobility and sensory support.
My Availability
I am available anytime for in-house care!
