My Summary

My Experience

I’m an experienced Children’s Support Worker currently working for Mencap, with over seven years of experience supporting children, young people and adults across care, education and support settings.

Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals with a wide range of needs, including autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, physical disabilities and social, emotional and mental health needs. I also have experience supporting children who have experienced trauma and understand the importance of providing calm, patient and consistent care.

I’m First Aid trained and have professional experience managing challenging situations, supporting emotional regulation and adapting my approach to each individual child. I’m confident caring for multiple children and children with additional or complex needs.

As a mum of three myself, I understand just how much trust it takes to leave your child in someone else’s care. Safety and wellbeing will always be my priority, while making sure children feel comfortable, relaxed and have fun while their parents are away.

I’m reliable, caring, down-to-earth and very difficult to faze! I also have tattoos, piercings and sometimes colourful hair — they’re simply part of my personality and self-expression. I take my responsibilities seriously and always remain professional, respectful and dependable.

Alongside babysitting, I’m also happy to discuss pet sitting and cleaning support. Please feel free to message me if you have any questions or would like to chat about your childcare needs.
