My Summary
About Me
Hi, I’m Bella!
I have 4 years of experience working with children as a swimming teacher, a role I absolutely loved. During my time teaching, I built great relationships with both children and parents and became a trusted and valued part of the team. Working with children has always been the most rewarding part of my job.
I also adore spending time/going out with my friends children, I love helping out whenever I can.
I would describe myself as patient, fun, caring, and attentive. Outside of work, I love cooking and baking.
After recently returning from 3½ months of travelling around Thailand, I’m looking for a role that I genuinely enjoy while I decide what’s next. Since I loved working with children so much, babysitting felt like the perfect fit.
I look forward to meeting new families and providing a safe, reliable, and positive environment for your children.
My Experience
I worked as a swimming teacher for 4 years, which is where I found out how much I love working with children. I taught children of all ages and abilities, helping them build confidence in the water while making lessons fun and enjoyable.
The job taught me a lot about keeping children safe, being patient, building trust, and adapting to different personalities. I was lucky enough to build great relationships with both the children and their parents, and became a really valued part of the team.
I’ve also spent plenty of time looking after friends’ children and genuinely enjoy being around kids. I’m caring, reliable, fun, and attentive, and I always aim to make children feel comfortable, happy, and supported.
