My Summary

My Experience

I have experience caring for children ranging from 8 months to 16 years old and am confident adapting my approach to suit different ages, personalities, and individual needs.

For the past several years, I have provided regular babysitting alongside my studies, supporting children with daily routines, meal preparation, creative activities, homework, and play. I enjoy encouraging children's curiosity and confidence through activities tailored to their interests, whether that's arts and crafts, baking, spending time outdoors, or imaginative play.

I spent two months working as an au pair in Spain, caring for a seven-year-old boy. I taught him English through play-based activities such as Lego, drawing, and games while helping to build his confidence with language learning. Alongside childcare, I was responsible for household tasks, including cleaning and maintaining the family home while he attended summer camp.

I also have experience tutoring children from the age of 10 through to GCSE level, including GCSE Chemistry for 16-year-olds. I enjoy adapting my teaching style to suit each child's individual needs and believe learning should be engaging, encouraging, and confidence-building. Whether helping with schoolwork or introducing new ideas through play and creativity, I aim to make learning enjoyable and accessible.

Through my marine science studies and internships, I have had the opportunity to teach children in a range of educational settings. In Indonesia, I delivered art and conservation activities for children aged 5 to 10, using creativity to teach them about the natural world and the importance of protecting it. In Costa Rica, while working as a Marine Biology Assistant, I taught a large group of American 10-year-olds about sea turtle conservation, sharing hands-on and engaging lessons about marine life and environmental stewardship. These experiences have strengthened my ability to communicate with children of different ages and backgrounds and to make learning both fun and memorable.

In addition, my experience working in hospitality has given me excellent time management skills and a high standard of cleanliness and organisation. I am confident preparing meals, managing household tasks efficiently, and supporting busy family routines with a positive and reliable approach.
