My Summary

My Experience

I have a range of experience working with children in different settings. I have worked in a children’s residential home, where I supported young people with their daily routines, emotional wellbeing and individual needs. This role strengthened my patience, resilience and ability to provide consistent, nurturing care.
I have also worked in a primary school, supporting children with their learning and development in a structured environment. In addition, I am a parent myself, which has given me valuable hands-on experience and a deep understanding of children’s needs. I regularly babysit for friends and family, further building my confidence and experience across different ages.

My Qualifications

I have achieved 10 GCSEs at grades A*–C and completed 3 A Levels. I hold a Foundation Degree in Art and Design from Coventry University, which supports my creativity and ability to plan engaging activities for children. I also have a Level 3 qualification as a Teaching Assistant, giving me strong knowledge of child development and educational support. In addition, I am qualified as an Advanced Practitioner in Residential Childcare, equipping me with specialist skills in supporting children with a range of emotional and behavioural needs.

My Availability

I am available on weekdays during both daytime and evening hours. I can also offer occasional weekend availability when arranged in advance. I aim to be flexible where possible to meet the needs of families.
