My Summary
About Me
Hi, I’m Ellie—an attentive, friendly 18-year-old based in Galashiels. I'm naturally nurturing, highly organized, and full of energy, making me a great fit for babysitting alongside my current job. I bring warmth, responsibility, and a genuine care for children’s well-being. Whether it’s playtime, bedtime, or helping with homework, I create a safe and fun environment tailored to each child’s needs. I’m also great with routines, reliable with timekeeping, and always ready with a smile. Happy to help with occasional evenings or weekends—feel free to reach out!
My Experience
Throughout school, I was actively involved in youth safeguarding initiatives, including the MVP (Mentors in Violence Prevention) programme, which deepened my understanding of how to create safer environments for children and teens. I volunteered at the TD1 Youth Hub in Galashiels, where I worked with children across a range of ages and supported those with learning difficulties and neurodivergent profiles. As someone who is neurodivergent myself, I bring a personal understanding and empathy that helps me connect with and advocate for these children more effectively.
I’ve also earned a Level 6 qualification in Youth Work, which has given me the practical tools and professional insight to support children’s wellbeing with confidence. Whether it’s engaging kids through creative play, supporting emotional regulation, or just being a calm and caring presence, I always aim to make children feel safe, respected, and heard.
My Qualifications
I hold a Level 6 qualification in Youth Work, providing a strong foundation in child development, safeguarding, and inclusive care—particularly for neurodivergent children or those with additional needs. I’ve also achieved a Level 6 Leadership qualification, equipping me to guide, motivate, and support others in both professional and community settings.
Academically, I’ve completed Highers in English, Maths, Psychology, and other core subjects, strengthening my communication skills, analytical thinking, and emotional literacy.
My Availability
My schedule is fairly flexible, and I’m happy to adapt to suit the needs of your family. Whether you’re looking for occasional evening support, weekend help, or need someone reliable at short notice, I’ll always do my best to make myself available. I'm quick to respond, easy to communicate with, and understand how important dependable childcare is to parents juggling busy lives. Let’s chat and find what works best for you!
