Hello families!
I’ve been babysitting & nannying for the last 7-8 years.
This includes before/after school pick ups & drop offs, date nights, overnights & weekends. I also arrange age appropriate activities if I take the children out for the day such as going to the park, the zoo, bounce, Timezone, play centres, swimming, bike rides etc.
Bit of experience:
Before covid I worked part time hours mon-fri after school for one family children 4 & 7. Duties included picking up from school, preparing snacks and then dinner, helping with homework, baths, packing lunches for the following day and taking to tutoring.
During covid I had to leave this family and so moved onto a job at Nido Early School, I worked there for 14 months and had another family (children 3 and 7) that I worked after school hours for. Duties included walking to their school and home. Help with any homework, prepare snacks, baths and bed time. Some days we'd go to the park or walk their dog, go for a bike ride or I'd supervise them in the pool.
I then worked with a lovely family of 3 as a full time nanny working Mon-Fri 8AM-4PM with additional evenings and weekend work if needed. The child was 8 months at the time and so I organised a routine for her, prepared food and milk, changed her nappies, sterilised bottles, engaged in age appropriate activities and planned out experiences to expand on her fine motor and gross motor skills eg bubbles, water play, lego, books, playdough, kinetic sand, tummy time. I did extra cleaning, shopping and laundry for the family.
I now currently work full time so I’m looking for extra work in my free time in the evenings or weekends!
