My Summary
About Me
I am 24-years-old and a Law Graduate from the University of Edinburgh. I have spent the last 6 months au pairing in Italy, and then 3 months au pairing in France looking after an 18-month old.
I would say I am an open-minded, charismatic and full of life person. I would describe myself as mature for my age, with a maternal instinct. I am someone who can adapt in any situation and get along with everyone.
My Experience
I have worked in a variety of childcare settings both paid and voluntary, so I have experience with many age ranges.
I volunteer at my local swim club (as aforementioned) teaching the kids how to swim. I also work for a swim teaching company and teach kids between the ages of 2-12 to swim (I have my level 1 swim teaching qualification).
In 2018 I volunteered in Fiji. While in Fiji, I lived with a host family who had two small children, aged 2 and 5. During the days in Fiji, we would volunteer in the local school (children aged 4-13) teaching them English, doing maths and also playing games and doing sport with them.
I work at a summer camp in the United States, upstate New York. At camp I was a lifeguard (thus I have basic training in CPR and first aid) and was also a swim teacher. I lived in a bunk with other counsellors and children, acting as a general counsellor to a specific group of kids when I was not lifeguarding. I have worked at this summer camp over the past 5 years (starting in 2018 and worked there this summer - 2023). I started off with the kids when they were 9-years-old and have been with them up until 15-years-old. This experience has taught me invaluable skills to deal with children on a day-to-day basis.
My most recent experience of childcare is au pairing for an Italian Family. They had a 6-year-old boy and 9-year-old girl. This gave me extensive childcare experience.

Shawney took care of my 6y.o daughter for the day. My daughter is usually quite shy but she really liked Shawney who put her at ease and had some fun activities planned for her. I was impressed with Shawney who really seemed to know what she was doing in terms of childcare, would recommend!
