My Summary

My Experience

I have worked for a variety of families in both temporary live-out and long-term live-in roles, caring for children ranging from 15 weeks to 12 years of age. This diverse experience has allowed me to develop a well-rounded skill set in caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children.

Duties included:

• Nappy changing, bathing, and general infant care
• Feeding, including bottle feeding and baby-led weaning
• Introducing solid foods and supporting early eating habits
• Potty training and encouraging good hygiene practices
• Engaging infants and toddlers in age-appropriate play to stimulate development
• Organising daily routines and activities to help children feel secure and nurtured

For school-aged children, my responsibilities included:

• School drop-offs, pickups, and after-school care
• Preparing nutritious meals and snacks
• Supporting homework and educational activities
• Arranging playdates, outings, and physical activities to promote social skills and fitness

I have always enjoyed building strong connections with the families I’ve worked with, and I’m still in touch with them to this day. Fluent in German, Turkish, and English, I can also help children develop their language skills if needed.

My Qualifications

I hold a BSc in Sport and Exercise Science and am a qualified physiotherapist with paediatric first aid certification. While I don’t have formal childcare qualifications, I’ve gained practical skills through extensive hands-on experience with various families in both live-out and live-in roles. I prioritise involving children in decision-making, helping them feel engaged and supported. My references reflect the strong, trusting relationships I’ve built and my ability to create a safe, nurturing environment for children.
