About Me

I'm a dedicated and enthusiastic childcare provider with experience caring for children aged 3-15. I take pride in creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can thrive. My experience ranges from managing school runs and assisting with homework to engaging children in fun, educational activities. Volunteering at a Saturday school and facilitating storytelling classes have further honed my skills in child engagement. Additionally, I’ve had hands-on experience looking after my younger cousins, ensuring their routines were maintained while my aunt was in the hospital receiving treatment for months at time. I'm committed to providing reliable and compassionate care tailored to each child's unique needs.

My Experience

I have a diverse range of childcare experience that spans several years and various settings, ensuring I am well-equipped to provide exceptional care for children aged 3-15.

Volunteering at a Saturday School:
I currently volunteer my weekend mornings and afternoons at a Saturday school where I assisted children aged 6-13 with their studies and extracurricular activities. This role allows me to develop skills in educational support, engaging children in interactive learning, and managing groups of children effectively.

Storytelling Classes:
For six months, I conducted storytelling classes for children. This experience enhanced my ability to captivate young minds, foster creativity, and maintain their attention. I also designed slides and compressed information to ensure the sessions were educational and entertaining, adapting my approach to meet the needs of children from diverse backgrounds.

Family Care:
During a challenging time when my aunt was in the hospital receiving chemotherapy, I took on the responsibility of caring for my younger cousins when I moved in with them. This involved managing school runs, preparing meals, helping with homework, and ensuring their bedtime routines were followed. This hands-on experience reinforced my ability to provide nurturing, reliable, and structured care.
