About Me

Hi ??

I'm a fully qualified beauty therapist, Nail Technician and Hairdresser.

I spend my free time babysitting friends and family's children a few days / nights a week. I am looking for part of full - time babysitting work.

Upon request I can help with homework, household chores, making meals, organise activities and trips out to local playgrounds, soft play areas and shops.

If you would like to know more please send me a message on here.

Thanks for reading my profile.

All the best,
Beck

My Experience

I've been doing all of the above since I was 14 years old. So a little over 23 years now.
I know how to run a happy and structured house full of children, keeping them occupied and happy.
I've always helped parents and friends with tasks that need doing around their homes or play date locations in a time sensitive manor as I have excellent communication and organisation skills.
I've worked full time at a SENS Special needs school last year as An Educational Support Assistant (teachers assistant) which I really enjoyed doing.
I am able to meet the needs of children of all ages as I'm hyper aware of how they are feeling and what they are seeking just going off their body language and non verbal communications as well as their emotional state.
Children tend to gravitate towards me after just one meeting because they enjoy my company, how I can meet them on their level, and, I presume, my party bag of tricks ? all things arts & craft ?????? and play ??? related, which I always try to make Educational.
I teach children about balanced healthy meals, getting them to try different foods and to explore the world around them.
If needed I can work with parents to try and encourage and support with meal times as I've found a lot of children struggle with the sensory aspects of food; the taste, smell, look, texture and sound when eating. Trying new foods should be a game of exploration and fun as well as engaging and simple to enjoy. I like to lead by example and join the children on their food adventure.
I appreciate that we all need support in our lives. It takes a village of good and caring people around to have a happy and well rounded child. When I leave the children happy and smiling (and often missing me before I've left their home ??) that gives me such a good boost that I am doing something right and good for them.
