About Me

. ’m Hazel Lesley Opoku, a compassionate and dedicated professional with over nine years of experience in health and social care, child support, and education. I’m passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of others, particularly those with additional needs. My journey has taken me across a variety of roles, including working as a healthcare coordinator, specialist teaching assistant, and live-in carer, allowing me to develop a broad skill set in care, support, and personal development.

I have a deep interest in working with children, especially those with special educational needs (SEN), and supporting their growth through personalized care and activities. I’m committed to creating environments where people feel safe, respected, and empowered to thrive. I believe in the importance of building trusting, positive relationships, whether with children, families, or colleagues, and take pride in being adaptable to the unique needs of each individual I work with.

As a mother to a six-year-old son with additional needs, I have first-hand experience of the challenges and joys that come with providing care and support, which further strengthens my empathy and understanding of the needs of others. I’m excited to continue growing both professionally and personally, learning from each experience, and making a meaningful difference wherever I can

My Experience

As a dedicated childcarer and babysitter with over nine years of experience in both health and educational settings, I bring a wealth of knowledge and hands-on expertise in supporting children of all ages. My background includes working with children in schools, supporting those with special educational needs (SEN), and providing high-quality care for children with additional needs. I am passionate about creating safe, engaging, and nurturing environments for children, ensuring they feel comfortable, valued, and supported in their development.

I have extensive experience working with children from nursery age to 16+, helping with both academic and personal growth. My skills include managing behavior, providing emotional support, and facilitating activities that promote social interaction, creativity, and physical activity. As a mother of a child with additional needs, I have firsthand experience in providing individualized care, understanding unique needs, and ensuring children feel supported and engaged.

I offer a reliable, compassionate, and adaptable approach to babysitting, providing children with the care and attention they deserve while also creating a fun and stimulating atmosphere. Whether it's offering homework support, engaging in arts and crafts, or simply providing companionship, I am committed to meeting the needs of each child and ensuring they are safe, happy, and secure while in my care
