I am originally from the Scottish Borders, and after living in Italy for the past 5 years I’ve decided to move back to the UK but in a new location. I love the outdoors, exploring and learning in and about nature. I strive to encourage children to spend as much time as possible outdoors, playing and learning through art and music. For the past 5 years I’ve been in Italy 4 years as a nanny, to children ranging from newborn to 10 years, and 1 working as an English teacher in a Montessori/Home School nursery. Previously to that I was a nanny in Val D’Isere, France and for 2 summers in Croatia for the company Neilson Active Holidays. I have worked for many families with multiple children, with mixed age ranges

I am not only equipped with professional experience but also my personal experience of looking after my own siblings who have special needs.

In addition to my High School graduation, my educational background in law has allowed me to develop a strong sense of responsibility, adaptability and problem-solving skills, which I believe are vital when attending to the needs of children.

My name is Mia, I am 17 years old (turning 18 in 2 weeks) and I have some availability for babysitting. Working with children is a true passion of mine and I have some experience: - DBS check - Over 3 years of occasional babysitting experience - Level 2 in childcare (working towards my level 3) - Currently working in a nursery as an apprentice for about a year - Experience with children aged 6 months to 10 years - Food hygiene and safeguarding certificates - Driving license and own car. I started occasional babysitting a couple of years ago and enjoyed it. After finishing school following my GCSEs, I started working at a nursery to complete my level 3 in childcare, which I have been pursuing for about a year now. I find this job very rewarding as I get to witness children grow and develop. I make babysitting fun by engaging in activities such as messy play, crafts, painting, baking, outdoor play, dancing, or singing. I believe physical activity is crucial for children, so I enjoy taking them for walks to parks and shops or to places like the farm, beach, soft play, or library. If needed, I can provide references. Feel free to message me with any questions or to book a babysitting session. I have been babysitting on and off for about 3 years and loved it when I was younger. Two years ago, I finished my GCSEs and went on to work at a nursery to obtain my level 3 in childcare. Currently, I am at a level 2 standard and have been working at my new nursery for about a year. I have completed safeguarding training, have basic knowledge of first aid, hold a level 2 food and hygiene certificate, and more. Safeguarding certificates Food and hygiene Certificate

Hi, I'm Bella and am 23 years old. I live in Bere Regis with my boyfriend and working cocker spaniel who is rather crazy! Having worked in nurseries for several years (under 2’s) and being a nanny for 5 months for a 1 year old, I have adventured back into nursery life working with 2-3 year olds! I am available for babysitting Monday to Sundays in the evenings and during the day on weekends as well. Having grown up being inspired to work with children; I gained a level 3 Diploma in Children’s Play, Learning and Development in May 2017 at Brockenhurst College, achieving a D*DD. Since then, I have gained over 4 ½ years’ experience working in 2 different nurseries within the baby rooms under 2. This leaded to gaining a promotion along the way and becoming the team leader of the baby room that I have absolutely loved. Since then, I have recently done nannying for 5 months for a 1 year old and am now back working full time at a nursery looking after 2-3 year olds. Watching children’s holistic development blossom, is so magical and I thrive in providing the most stimulating environments to enhance this.
