My Summary
About Me
Hello my name is Chrissy and I’m 28 years old. I am currently working part time as a Volunteer Coordinator with a community development charity although I have handed in my notice in to pursue a creative path and will be looking for regular childcare work from February onwards. Please get in touch if you have any questions, I haven’t got the paid membership at present so can only like profiles and respond to messages. Thanks for taking the time to read my profile.
My Experience
I have a depth of experience working as a babysitter over the last ten years with different families. Most recently I have experience babysitting flexibly for two girls aged 7 and 10 years old and have done so for the past 2 years. I also have experience working as an outdoor play youth worker with children ages 2+ supporting and encouraging through outdoor free play such as bushcraft, woodwork, cookery and arts and crafts. We promote imagination, conflict resolution, messy and child led play. I was a Nanny for 6 months when living in Lyon, France in 2018 for a 5 year old and 11 year old. I’m also an auntie to my 2 year old nephew so I have been gaining more experience with babies looking after him since he was born and I feel very confident to look after them. I babysat semi regularly for 3 young boys aged 2,4 & 5 during my final year of high school.
I am intuitive and compassionate and believe in the importance of play and creativity in the learning and development of children. I love working with children and I’m looking to taking the steps to pursuing a career in play/art therapy in the future.
If you would like a copy of my CV and PVG these are available on request. I’m also more than happy to have a phone/video call to chat more about my experience.
More about me:
I’m a fun, kind, responsible, empathetic, reliable and creative person. I really enjoy being outdoors, making art and going on adventures.
I am a keen Scottish trad musician and play whistle and flute.
I am a visual artist and work in a variety of mediums and love to get crafty and creative with kids.
I love to cook and I’m really confident in a kitchen with all sorts of meal prep.
I am clean, tidy and organised.
I have experience teaching English to pre school/primary school children for 1 year when living in France.
I also have experience teaching children traditional whistle lessons and also would be over the moon to teach music with an additional charge.
