My Summary
About Me
Hello! Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. I have 10 years of experience and multiple qualifications related to childcare.
I am a happy, energetic, trustworthy and well-mannered person.
I started babysitting when I was 15 years old. I have lots of experience with children aged 2 months to 15 years old! I have both paid and volunteering experience. When I was 18, I started tutoring.
I am a driver with a full drivers license and a car.
I do have a small Pomeranian (1.6KG) who would be present if I look after your children in my home. She has been around children since I got her so she is very much used to children.
My Experience
I started volunteering as a young leader at my local brownie group when I was 15 years old. This is when I started babysitting.
From the ages of 15 - 19, I mostly did evening and weekend babysitting.
Between the ages of 20 - 22, I had a job with a family where I did the school run and evening routine. I also did a lot number of full weekend babysitting jobs and evening babysitting along side working.
At 23, I opened my own business which meant I could only babysit in the evenings & on the weekends.
Two years ago, I took another job which was to complete the afternoon school run 4 days a week and evening routine including bedtime. I occasionally did the morning school run. Due to changing work patterns, this family no longer need my help and I am looking for another similar role.
I absolutely love doing the school run & helping with homework, cooking dinner & playing games before bed. I am open for a part time or full time role. I am also happy to look at your children for overnight/for a full weekend.
I am a mature, caring, friendly person. I have always loved children and enjoy looking after them.

Jessica babysat for my 2 children aged 2 and 4 yesterday for the first time. She came and meet with the children a few days prior as an interview as I was worried about leaving my children as I have never used a babysitter before but she ended up playing with them for over an hour and I felt totally at ease.
She made myself and my husband feel very comfortable and she has a great attitude, she is always happy and optimistic. I say this because we returned home last night to find her with sick all down her clothes but she didn't moan once.

Me and my husband are thrilled to have welcomed Jessica into our home on multiple occasions for ad-hoc babysiting. She is fantastic with our children who love being looked after by her.
She is punctual, very friendly and has a heart of gold. I could not recommend her enough.

It is a pleasure to look after your little angels!
Jessica is very good with my children, I first hired her as emergency cover as my Nanny was sick. I stayed home with them this day but was working from my office. I was very impressed, the children were happy all day and sad when she went home! They love it when i go out in the evening now. She is very fun and relaxed with them but I have heard her telling them off a few times for hiting each other which Is great because often babysitters let them get away with bad behaviour!
Really nice girl and glad to have found her!

Unfortunately we were let down by this babysitter. Despite confirming that she would be coming to babysit in the evening, she failed to turn up. No phone call or message and did not answer my calls.

hello, we had agreed for me to babysit on the 28th which it is not yet the 28th so this is very unfair feedback.
I have not had any calls from your number as I have your number saved.
I feel you should re-consider this feedback as it is unfair,
you haven't given me a chance to turn up as we are only on the 25th!
