About Me

Hello! I’m Dona, a doctoral student at the University of Huddersfield and a proud mum of a 9-year-old daughter. As a parent and an academic, I understand the importance of providing high-quality, reliable, and caring support for children. I’m passionate about offering trustworthy babysitting and childcare services that ensure both children and parents feel safe, happy, and supported.

My experience as a mum gives me a unique perspective on the needs of children, and I draw on both personal and academic knowledge to offer engaging and thoughtful care. Whether you're looking for regular childcare, occasional babysitting, or help with homework and activities, I am committed to providing a warm, caring environment tailored to your child’s needs.

My Experience

1. Motherhood and Personal Experience (9+ years)
As a mum of a 9-year-old daughter, I have first-hand experience in caring for and supporting children through various stages of their development. I’ve managed everything from daily routines and school runs to creating fun and educational activities that encourage learning and growth. This hands-on experience has made me well-equipped to understand the needs of children and provide the best care possible.

2. Childcare Provider and Babysitting
Over the years, I’ve provided babysitting and childcare services for family friends, neighbors, and other local families. This has included looking after children of different ages, helping with schoolwork, and planning fun, engaging activities. I focus on creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can feel comfortable, have fun, and learn.

3. Family Support & Mentoring
Through my personal and academic experience, I have often provided informal mentoring to younger family members and friends, helping them with everything from homework to managing their emotions. This experience has given me a great understanding of how children respond to different types of support and how to foster a positive, encouraging environment.

4. Full UK Driving License & Reliable Transport
In addition to my childcare experience, I hold a full UK driving license and have my own car, which has allowed me to assist families with school pick-ups and drop-offs, as well as transportation to extracurricular activities. This added flexibility makes it easier for parents to trust me with their children's mobility needs.

My Qualifications

I am a masters degree holder in the University of Ulster in Birmingham and currently pursuing the PhD about corporate sustainability in the University of Huddersfield.
