My Summary
About Me
Hi, my name is Holly Mimi and I am an actor, musician and drama facilitator. I have two rabbits and two cats and I look after them like they are my babies. I am a carer for my Mum, and I have been since I was 8 years old. I am now 32 and although I still provide care for my Mum, I now have help from care services whose work gives me more time to work on my craft within the creative industries.
I have worked with quite a few theatre companies, performing Christmas and internet safety shows for children of all ages, in primary schools and I have provided workshops for those between the ages of 5 and 11. I am mindful of the varying development of children even of the same ages and have worked with children from different ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds. I have also worked extensively with 12-16 year olds carrying out performances and drama workshops up and down the country and in Guernsey.
Children are an absolute blessing and it would be an honour to work alongside you, getting to understand your family's specific needs and hence provide a holistic approach for our work together.
I am highly intuitive, playful yet calm, firm yet flexible and loving yet astute. I am able to hold space for age appropriate emotional regulation, enabling a firm foundation for children to be themselves during the inevitable highs and lows of being a small(er) person (or any person for that matter).
Lastly, I am, of course, more than happy to join children in sensory play, help with homework and take them out on adventures whilst you are away from the home or working from home. I love baking and cooking, providing nutritious snacks and meals for children and my friendly, light energy, (ideal for children of all ages), finds me an adaptable, joyful and open-hearted nanny for your family.
My Experience
I am DBS checked and I am a drama practitioner who works with children from 5 - 11 years old. I have been into Primary Schools, performing plays for children, carrying out workshops to prepare them for performing for their parents and carers at the end of the day.
I am new to babysitting in a home setting, but I know my experiences working along so many different young children has provided me with transferable skills that I can bring to your home.
I also volunteer at Ivy Boarding Kennels and Cattery each week, where I walk and clean up after dogs. I am more than comfortable looking after your dog too, as I have experience with large and small dogs.
My Qualifications
I have a degree in English from Coventry University and a degree in Songwriting and Performance from the Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts.
Both of my degrees have taught me about the importance of communication and the latter especially about how vital drama and music can be for children. Creative expression and creative games are things I am able to facilitate and encourage in children.
