My Summary
About Me
My name is Grace and I grew up in Salisbury with my mum, little sister, dog Molly and cat Max. I am currently earning my degree in Culture, Media and Creative Industries at King's College London to specialise in creative live events. Since moving to London for my degree, I have spent most of my free time exploring and engaging with local art galleries, exhibitions, fashion pop-ups and music events. I am passionate about all things creative, particularly fashion and music. I love meeting new people and learning new skills while broadening my understanding of different cultural and creative practices. I've worked with children in various backgrounds and would love the opportunity to support a family with their childcare needs.
My Experience
I have 3 years of childcare experience where I have taken care of 2 young children, helping with pick-ups and drop-offs, preparing meals, supervising schoolwork and engaging in play. I have also worked as a classroom assistant and chaperone at a local performing arts school. I have previously worked as a part-time nanny for two little boys aged 3 and 5 (now 5 and 7). I took care of these boys on a part-time basis for 2 years, and still look after them when I am back home from University. My responsibilities included picking them up from school, preparing meals, engaging in play, supervising schoolwork, taking them on outings and supporting their developmental disability needs. I typically worked for 4 hours every weekday after school and for full days outside of term time. I also occasionally babysat in the evenings where I was responsible for putting the children to bed. This role required a high level of responsibility, ensuring that these children were safe and cared for at all times and also enhanced my ability to connect and communicate effectively. Being able to experience these children grow up has been incredibly rewarding and I hold a lot of love for them and their family.
I have also worked as a part-time teaching assistant and chaperone at Stagecoach Performing Arts Ringwood, where I was formally a student. This role required assisting in weekend performing arts classes for children aged 4 to 7, ensuring that they were participating in activities, supervising lunchtimes and toilet trips, and making sure everyone was having fun! This role also led to chaperoning opportunities, where I took on temporary work during theatre performances. This role meant supervising large groups of children aged 6 to 14 throughout the day in a professional theatre environment, supervising lunchtimes and toilet trips, keeping the children entertained during waiting periods and assisting with costume changes and rehearsals. Most importantly, I was responsible for ensuring that all health and safety as well as safeguarding guidelines were upheld (as well as calming any nerves before the performances of course).
Having a younger sibling and family members, I have also taken on babysitting roles inside my family as well as for family friends. These roles included supervising children aged 7 to 14, ensuring everyone was safe and happy while overseeing the preparation of meals and bedtimes.
