My Summary
About Me
ONLY AVAILABLE FOR BABY SITTING.
I am a young 55+ women married to a wonderful man. We have a 30 year old lovely son.
We all moved to London 28 years ago. I am originally from Bolton a small town in the Northwest of England.
I love travelling, swimming, sewing, drawing / painting and keeping busy. I also love walking especially country and coastal areas. I can drive but prefer to cycle.
I am a genuine fun and friendly individual. I like to keep a honest open communication with the people in my life. I'm not ' perfect ', I don't think anyone is, but I try to be the best I can be in whatever I'm doing and whatever situation I'm in.
My Experience
For the past 18 months, I have been caring for my beautiful mum. My mum is suffering with dementia. She is now living in a nursing home and is being very well cared for!
Previously to mum needing my care. I was working with a lovely family and was the nanny to their adorable, twin boys. I was with them for three years.
TEACHING ASSISTANT
For 14 years I have worked at Edmund Waller Primary School as a Teaching Assistant. I have worked in both key stages 1&2 with children of various age groups, mixed abilities, cultures and children with special educational needs.
My role as a TA requires the utmost care and attention to the needs of children. I'm experienced in working alongside of teachers / parents and I'm confident in using my own initiative. Being a TA is about helping the development of children socially, emotionally, physically, educationally and most of all lovingly.
I volunteered for redundancy from this job along with eleven other TA's. I truly loved working there but thought it would be a perfect opportunity to take up childcare again which I equally love doing.

I have cared for children from the age of 3 months to 10 years.

I have good management skills and demonstrate this by being in a daily routine. It also gives children stability and security.
