My Summary

My Experience

I have experience regularly babysitting for family and friends whenever needed, caring for children from around 1 year old and upwards.

Coming from a large family, I have 12 nieces and nephews and have spent lots of time looking after them as they’ve grown up. This has given me experience with different ages, personalities and routines.

I have also worked as a tutor and have experience teaching and coaching sports in schools. I’ve taught netball and helped with tennis and badminton, which has given me confidence working with children, keeping them engaged and creating fun activities.

I have some experience around newborn babies through family, although I feel most confident caring for children aged 1 and above.

My Qualifications

I don’t currently hold any formal childcare qualifications, but I have plenty of hands-on experience babysitting for family and friends, caring for children of different ages.

I also regularly dog sit and babysit in other people’s homes, so I’m comfortable taking responsibility, following household routines and making sure everything is looked after while owners or parents are away.

I have a university degree in Photography, which has helped develop my creativity, patience and attention to detail. I enjoy arts, crafts and creative activities and would love to bring these into childcare where appropriate.

I am keen to build on my experience and would be interested in completing a paediatric first aid course in the future.

My Availability

I’m looking for babysitting opportunities and occasional childcare to fit around my other work commitments.

I currently work in hospitality, so my working days can vary, but I do have days off during the week and am more than happy to work around families’ needs with advance notice.

I’m generally available for early morning childcare before school, up until around 8:15am, as well as evenings from approximately 4:30–5pm onwards during the week.

I can often offer weekend availability too, depending on my work rota.

I’m happy to consider regular bookings as well as occasional evenings, mornings, weekends and last-minute arrangements where possible.

I’m based around the Sidmouth area and would love to help local families wherever I can.

My Fees

• Babysitting from £12.00 per hour

My rates start from £12 per hour, but I’m always happy to have a chat and find something that works well for everyone. Rates may vary depending on the number of children and the type of care needed. I’m very happy to discuss things beforehand, especially for regular bookings, and look forward to helping families wherever I can!
