Babysitter in London
My Summary
About Me
I grew up in Istanbul, Turkey in a big family with my brothers and sisters. I studied at an English-Medium high school and later studied Biology at Istanbul University. I taught English and Biology for three years before starting my corporate career in hospitals and insurance sector where I worked for 12 nears as a Laboratory Assistant and Risk Assessment Specialist.
I had always dream of living in Cape Town so I moved there and lived for a short term. After meeting my husband who is from Herefordshire, we moved to England, had our own home retail business and ran it successfully for ten years. After selling the business we moved to Barcelona where we lived nearly two years. We now live in Maida Vale, London very happily where we have our family and friends.
We also have a Cocker Spaniel who I absolutely adore.
My Experience
Having been born and raised in a large, close-knit family, I was always surrounded by my nieces, nephews, and cousins. As my mother was a single parent, I also lived with my brother, sister-in-law, and my nieces for a period of time, and I often helped them care for the children.
While living in Barcelona, I babysat for a family friend's son, Diego. My responsibilities included preparing simple meals and snacks, picking him up from and dropping him off at school, taking him to the park, and spending quality time with him.
I also occasionally babysat for the daughter of one of my Turkish friends. As her parents were not very fluent in English, they wanted her to spend time with someone who could speak English with her while providing a safe, caring, and fun environment.
