My Summary
About Me
I can pick drop off and pick up from school or activities, cook, clean, help with homework, read bed time stories, play, motivate to complete chores, administer medication, and all usual babysitting requirements.
I can cater to a range of dietary requirements: myself being lacto-vegetarian, my brother coeliac, mother-in-law on the KETO diet, husband is omnivore, parents on low fat.
I am fun and friendly with an affinity for children. I am confident with all ages, from babies to teens and have extensive experience with individuals with SEND.
My manner and routine will be tailored to the needs of the children and the wishes of the parents/guardians.
I also love animals so pets are not an issue.
I am studying Environmental Management with the Open University, as such science and the natural world are my passions. I love being outdoors in nature and would happily take children on fun, educational days out.
