Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

My name is Amy, and I am currnently undertaking my 3rd year of university at Moansh. I consider myself to be a responsible, engaging, patient and friendly 20 year old. Of course I am supper passionate about kids, and have had an enormous amount of work experience with children of all ages. I have been casually baby sitting since 2020, and have had plenty of experience cooking, cleaning and engaging children in fun activities.  My previous job was a swim instructor, whereby I taught babies in the pool with parents all the way up to 12 year olds.  My aim was to teach basic swimming skills, make children feel comfortable and safe in the water, as well as important water survival skills. Over this role I gained the ability  to control a class of up to 6 children at once. Whilst also maintaining safety in the pool and keeping children engaged. So if you would love some swimming lesson would be happy to do so! Moreover, I have been netball coaching for the past 5 years, which has once again provided great experience working with children from 10-17 years. As much as I am a coach and leader, I still insist on maintaining a strong friendship and bond with players to ensure they are comfortable and supported, considering teamwork is key! You can probably tell I love working with kids by now, and I have my working with children check. Also I  have my drivers license and car if needed, as well as I am fully vaccinated (including covid-19). I am happy to start ASAP, so get in contact if you have any question, or if you would like some further references :))
