My Summary
About Me
Hi, my name is Maryam. I work in a junior school during the week but have free time during the day or at weekends and would like to offer childcare for a family in their home or mine!
I have extensive experience with primary school-aged children, as that is my current role, but I also have four years’ experience working with younger children in a nursery setting.
I am happy to help with education and homework too, as I have lots of teaching experience with young children.
I enjoy organising a wide variety of activities such as baking, crafts, trips to the park, different games and many others to keep youngsters happy and active.
“I enjoy home cooking and baking, which has become a specialty of mine. It’s not only rewarding but also great fun for children to get involved! I’m always happy to prepare meals and share my love for homemade food.”
My Experience
I have my own child, so I have plenty of practical, hands-on experience in childcare.
I am currently employed running an after-school club during the week, which I really enjoy. This has given me a wealth of experience with primary school-aged children.
I also have four years of experience as a nursery nurse, working with babies from 6 months to 4 years old, as well as newborns.
For more information, feel free to message me on my WhatsApp number provided on my profile.

Thank you very much for your kind feedback — I truly appreciate it.
It’s been a pleasure spending time with your children; they are a delight to work with, and I’m so pleased to hear they’ve been enjoying our sessions.
I look forward to the opportunity of working with your family again in the near future.
I am extremely satisfied with her care for my baby twins. She is incredibly kind, patient, and nurturing, treating my children with the warmth and compassion of a kind-hearted mother.
She engages them with age-appropriate games that stimulate their creativity and development.
I truly appreciate her singing nursery songs in both English and Persian, which has been instrumental in expanding their vocabulary and enhancing their understanding of different languages.
She is always punctual, supportive, and highly reliable. I feel completely confident leaving my children in her care, knowing they are in the best hands.
