Babysitter in Salford
My Summary
About Me
I am a warm, reliable, and compassionate childcare and housekeeping professional with experience supporting children, young people, and vulnerable individuals in both professional and family settings. At 36 years old, I bring patience, maturity, and a calm approach to caring for children of all ages.
As a proud aunt to 11 nieces and nephews, I have gained years of hands-on experience helping with babies, toddlers, school-aged children, and teenagers. From preparing meals and helping with homework to organising activities and maintaining a safe, happy environment, caring for children has always been a natural part of my life.
My Experience
Professionally, I have worked as a Mental Health Support Worker, supporting children at school and at home, which has strengthened my ability to build trusting relationships, manage challenging situations calmly, and provide compassionate, person-centred care. I understand the importance of safeguarding, emotional wellbeing, routine, and creating a nurturing environment where children feel secure and valued.
Alongside childcare, I take pride in maintaining clean, organised homes. I am hardworking, trustworthy, and attentive to detail, ensuring high standards of cleanliness while helping busy families with household tasks such as laundry, meal preparation, tidying, and general housekeeping.
I hold an Enhanced DBS check and have completed a range of professional training relevant to childcare, health, and safety. I am committed to providing safe, dependable, and high-quality care while supporting children's development and giving parents complete peace of mind.
