My Summary

My Experience

I have had the privilege of working as a babysitter for 5 years, during which I have had the opportunity to care for children of various ages and backgrounds. My experience includes looking after infants, toddlers, and young children, each with their unique needs and personalities. Through these experiences, I have honed my ability to adapt to different situations and provide individualised attention to each child under my care. Which deepened with my own child almost 2 years old boy.
As a childminder and babysitter, I prioritise creating a warm and nurturing environment that allows children to thrive. I am patient, attentive, and compassionate, always striving to understand and meet the unique needs of each child. I believe in fostering open communication with both children and parents, maintaining a respectful and trustworthy relationship built on transparency and reliability. I am dedicated to providing engaging activities mostly Montessori or natural resources that stimulate imagination, creativity, and learning while also ensuring a safe and secure environment.

My Qualifications

Beyond my practical experience, I have also acquired a set of qualifications that make me well-equipped for this role. I hold a certification in pediatric first aid and CPR, ensuring that I can respond swiftly and effectively in case of any emergencies. Additionally, I have completed courses in child development, which have given me valuable insights into promoting physical, cognitive, and emotional growth in children. My commitment to staying updated on the best practices in childcare ensures that I can provide the highest level of care and attention to your children.

My Availability

I am flexible most of the afternoons and for the school pick ups, babysitting during the day is based on my schedule and shared upon request.

My Fees

• Babysitting from £11.00 per hour
• Childminding from £7.00 per hour

When it comes to my childcare services, I believe in transparency and fair pricing. Here is a breakdown of my fee structure:

Hourly Rate:
My standard hourly rate is £11. This rate covers the time I spend actively engaged with your child, ensuring their safety, providing supervision, and engaging them in age-appropriate activities. The hourly rate starts from the time I arrive at your home until the agreed-upon end time.

Additional Charges:
There may be additional charges under certain circumstances, such as:

Late Nights: For babysitting sessions that extend beyond 22:00, an additional fee of £1 per hour will apply. This fee accounts for the extended care and inconvenience caused by late-night hours.
Weekends and Holidays: Babysitting services required on weekends or during recognized public holidays may incur a slightly higher rate. This adjustment acknowledges the increased demand for babysitting services during these times.
Additional Children: If you have more than one child requiring care, there will be an additional fee per hour for each additional child. This fee ensures that I can provide adequate attention and care to each child, considering their individual needs.
