My Summary

My Experience

My professional experience with children has been gained through working in both primary and secondary school settings.

I have worked as a Trainee PE Teacher in secondary schools, where I have planned and delivered PE lessons for students aged 11–18, led whole-class and small-group activities, supported behaviour management, and adapted activities to accommodate different abilities and needs.

I have also completed school placements in primary and SEND settings, supporting teachers with classroom activities, learning, behaviour management, and individual pupil needs. Most recently, I have worked as a Teaching Assistant in a primary school through an agency.

Through these roles, I have developed experience in supervising children, communicating effectively, building positive relationships, supporting individual needs, and creating inclusive environments. I have also developed strong proactivity, patience, adaptability, and behaviour-management skills.

While I have not worked specifically as a babysitter before, my experience in education has provided me with a strong foundation for childcare. I am now looking to build on this experience by working directly with families and gaining further experience in babysitting and childcare.

My Qualifications

I graduated last year from the University of Lincoln and hold a First-Class BSc (Hons) degree in PE and Sport. I am completing a PGCE in Secondary Education (11–18) with Physical Education.
Through both courses I have developed knowledge and practical experience in working with children and young people, including supporting pupils with SEND. I have experience with behaviour management, safeguarding procedures, inclusive practice, communication, and adapting activities to suit different ages and abilities.

My background in PE also means I am confident planning and supporting fun, active, and age-appropriate activities. I am committed to continuing to develop my knowledge and experience within childcare.

My Fees

My standard childcare rate is £13 - £15 per hour.
I am happy to discuss individual childcare requirements with parents, including the number and ages of children, length of booking, and any additional responsibilities. I will always agree the rate and arrangements with parents in advance so that everything is clear before a booking is confirmed.
