My Summary
Fun Mum Of 5
About Me
I am a mother of 4 boys, aged between 30 and 35 and more recently to a 5yr old girl, also an aunt to nieces & a nephew. I have worked in a primary & a comprehensive school in the past as a teaching assistant and currently part-time in primary schools as supply working 1-1 with children.
I'm fun, reliable, outgoing... enjoy watching football, going to the cinema and watching Disney movies.
My Experience
I have worked in a primary and comprehensive schools in the past. l have a current, enhanced DBS, first aid certificate and safeguarding qualification. I regularly babysit for families on holiday as well as for my own family. I help out at local hotels babysitting and in the Kids Clubs.
My details are kept on the records of 3 well established Holiday Letting Agencies in North Cornwall. They, in turn pass my name on to guests, who then contact me directly. Summers are exceptionally busy, with some regular babysitting/childminding in a well known hotel in Polzeath, and another at Watergate Bay, along with lunchtime & some morning babysitting, and work in Padstow & neighbouring areas too. Should you require any references, I would be pleased to pass any information on to you.
My Qualifications
15 years experience working with primary and secondary school students,
Enhanced DBS, Safeguarding and First Aid . I worked within mainstream at school but also worked alongside pupils with special needs - Aspergers, ADHD, visual impairment.
Currently, I work in primary schools as supply staff, both as a general Teaching Assistant and on a 1-1 basis. I can provide references for anybody that requires them
As a mum myself, I know, full well, how important it is to leave a child with a stranger you can trust.

We asked Sam to help look after our 1 year old for mornings whilst we were on holiday. She was warm and friendly and had tricks to help our little boy settle with a new person! Sam was also punctual and responsive to messages. Would highly recommend.

Sam looked after our little girl in Padstow so we could have a day off together (hands free!) and an evening so we could have a lovely date night. She is very warm and friendly and our little girl adored her. Thanks Sam!

We used Sam last September and she was fantastic. Our daughter, only 4 months at the time, loved her. Sam kept Billie entertained and happy whilst we were out. We plan on using Sam again on our next visit in June.
