About Me

My name is Bruna and I'm 22 years old. I’m someone who absolutely loves working with children. I’ve always been the kind of person that kids naturally feel comfortable around—I'm calm, patient, kind, and love creating a safe, fun environment where they can feel happy and supported.

I’ve had experience babysitting for different age groups and also worked as a tutor and mentor, which helped me learn how to connect with children, support their learning, and handle different situations with care and understanding. Whether it's reading stories, helping with homework, or just having a silly dance party in the living room, I really enjoy spending quality time with little ones and making sure they feel looked after.

My Experience

I’ve had experience caring for children of different ages, both through babysitting and through my time as a tutor and mentor during school. These roles taught me how to keep children engaged, support their learning, and handle challenges with patience and understanding. I’m comfortable helping with schoolwork, managing routines, and stepping in as a supportive presence when parents need some time away.

Outside of childcare, I’ve also worked in retail and in a scientific lab, which helped me develop strong communication, organisation, and problem-solving skills—all of which I bring into my babysitting. I genuinely enjoy being around children and helping them feel safe, heard, and happy.

My Qualifications

I hold a degree in Biomedical Science, which has given me a strong foundation in safety, organisation, and responsibility—all of which I carry into my work with children. I'm also fully first aid trained, so parents can feel reassured knowing I’m prepared to respond calmly and effectively in case of an emergency.

In addition to my academic background, I’ve worked as both a tutor and mentor, supporting children with schoolwork and helping them build confidence in a kind and encouraging way. These roles have really strengthened my ability to communicate with children of different ages and understand their individual needs.

I’ve also worked in customer service, which has helped me become calm under pressure, approachable, and quick to adapt to different situations. Altogether, my experience and training allow me to provide a safe, supportive, and positive environment for every child in my care.

My standard rate is £12-20 per hour, depending on the number of children, the time of day, and any additional responsibilities (like homework help, light cooking, or bedtime routines). I’m always happy to discuss what works best for your family and adjust based on your needs.
