About Me

I'm usually a third year medical student at Lancaster University who adores children. I really care about other people's wellbeing and will go a long way to help them with anything.

Children absolutely love me for some reason. I love helping them grow as a person and to have fun with them. I am very creative, love arts, painting, crocheting, drawing... I love helping children develop their skills while having a great time together. I used to do artistic gymnastics for 10 years before coming to the university, as well as have done ballet and contemporary dance for my whole life. All of that helps me to be able to recognise and prevent any potential dangerous situations, but also make sure that the children get to develop their passions. I used to play violin for 9 years, so I have no problem helping out with any instrument practice or homework either.
 
Through my medical education I have been developing very valuable skills such as staying calm under pressure, communication with people, being organized, dealing with uncomfortable situations, making sure people are listened to and heard. All of these apply to looking after children as well.

My Experience

I have two younger sisters and a brother (the youngest sister is now 9) and I've been taking care of them since I can remember, as my parents were never at home due to their very busy jobs. So, I am no foreigner to changing nappies or calming down crying babies. But also, on the other hand, I'm very happy to help with any homework or school problems that a child might have.
 
During the summers, I also work at summer camps in Croatia with children ages 4-17. Each child is very individual in my eyes and children need different types of attention and help at different points in their life, which I think is very important to recognize and understand as it influences how they behave and feel.

My Qualifications

International Baccalaureate- HL Biology, HL Chemistry, SL psychology, HL Maths, HL Slovene language, SL English language

I finished two years of my medical degree and am on a gap year at the moment.

My Availability

I am very flexible and available as I am currently taking a year out of my medical studies. I will work around the family schedule.
