Hello! I am reliable, kind, trustworthy and friendly, with 30 years experience in babysitting, childcare & schools, including Steiner school.
I enjoy nurturing children, and attending to their needs with warmth, creativity, and time exploring nature, discovering all its wonders, in the garden, and on walks.
I bring a wholesome and healthy family atmosphere, encouraging a positive and nourishing learning environment, patiently supporting the children in the magic of their imaginative and creative play. I love to engage them in activities such as reading story books, music, songs, arts and crafts, painting and drawing.
Additionally, I have been a parent for 18 years, with a stable home, proudly raising my son to be a healthy and happy young man. I enjoy the contrast between his maturity now, and the beauty of childhood, and working with babies, children, and young teenagers.
I also work in the field of holistic health and healing, and genuinely care about people, babies and children.
I am responsible and respect other peoples homes, and would be happy to follow the child's natural routine, day, evening or night.
I understand that there are many circumstances where it would help you to have a babysitter, such as an evening out, a special event, or need some space from your children if you work from home, or while you have a rest, and take a break from the energetic job of parenting!
I offer a fairly flexible schedule, and can offer care in the daytime as well as evening/night babysitting, on a one-off or regular basis.
Written and contactable reference available.
Child Care First Aid Certificate (renewed recently as a full course refresher 01/03/2024) also available. Both documents can be attached to a message at your request.
It would to my pleasure to make it a game, and tidy the toys together with the children, help them with whatever they need, prepare and serve the children light meals, and a natural kitchen wipe over afterwards, etc, but not general household cleaning, as my focus and energy is really for the children : )
I look forward to meeting you and caring for your children.
