I’m Jess! I’m 20 and come from a big, busy family, so I’m used to the energy of little ones and regularly care for my two younger sisters who are both under 5. I’ve worked in two nurseries and have been babysitting for friends, family, and neighbours for years, so I’m confident with everything from bedtime stories and snack times to blanket forts and messy play. I’m also autistic, which means I understand what it’s like to see and experience the world differently, and I feel this really helps me when caring for children who may have additional needs or just need a bit more patience and understanding. I’m a calm, friendly, and positive person who loves photography, Lego, music and spontaneous adventures. I'm currently studying film production at university in Liverpool but I am at home in leeds for the summer. I have worked in two nurseries as a childcare worker, where I supported children’s daily routines, play, and early learning in a safe and caring environment. Alongside this, I regularly take care of my two younger sisters, both under 5, managing meals, activities, and bedtime independently. I have also been babysitting for friends, family, and neighbours for several years, looking after children of different ages and needs. These experiences have helped me develop strong skills in keeping children engaged, meeting their individual needs, and handling responsibilities calmly and confidently.

As a young woman who is full of energy, dependability, and zest, I carry with me a strong passion for imparting wisdom and knowledge to children using strategies that are engaging, enjoyable, and exhilarating. In my understanding, education isn't confined to textbooks, it should go beyond and blend with practical aspects of life. This belief of mine extends to sporting an infectious positivity that influences the little ones, making every learning moment fun-filled and memorable. Countless years of interacting with children of varying ages have instilled the confidence in me to deal with their diverse requirements, be it in the comfort of their homes or the vibrant environment outside. I cherish every moment spent with these bundles of joy and that's why conventional babysitting isn't something you'd expect with me. The promise I come with is that our day won't just be a humdrum affair of sitting in front of the television. Instead, you can set your expectations on experiencing a multitude of 'adventures'. Be it exploring the wonderful outdoors, visiting interactive exhibits at museums, or even navigating through the maze at the local park - I am all up for it! All these activities not only kindle their curiosity but also makes them more knowledgeable about the world. In my personal time, I am an ardent nature lover who immensely enjoys taking long, soul-soothing walks with my beloved dog, Lou. These walks give me a break from the regular hustle and bustle of life. They recharge me and keep me ready for the next day. Furthermore, I have an ever-growing fondness for exploring unfamiliar, novel places. This attribute of mine also adds a dash of thrill to exploring new locales with my soon-to-be life partner, my fiancé. All of these personal passions of mine marry beautifully with my love to teach, resulting in an engaging, enriching, and entertaining learning environment for your little ones. I started my career roughly ten years ago as an in-house babysitter for a young boy with autism. Since then, I have earned my Level 3 in early years education and spent 4.5 years working in Ofsted Outstanding nurseries with children aged 3 months to 5 years. Following that, I worked in a high school as a TA with young people with additional needs, and I am currently a head of year. I hold a full DBS, a first aid qualification, and various safeguarding qualifications. I also have experience working with young people who have allergies.

I was born and raised in London and am currently completing my Undergraduate degree in International History and Politics at the University of Leeds. I have a very big extended family with kids of all ages so I have always been used to helping out with children. I had music lessons in guitar, the saxophone and the clarinet when I was growing up so I can proficiently read music and assist with music practice. I am happy to facilitate fun activities like baking and crafts as well as encouraging homework which I attribute to my experience teaching English in a refugee school in Malaysia. I have a sister with a 9 year age gap so I grew up looking after her and helping out my parents regularly. Nannying and babysitting has been my most honed professional skill throughout my teens from looking after my primary school aged sister in order for our parents to go for dinner or weekends away as well as looking after the children of families in the local area. My sister is neurodivergent which means I also have experience supporting a child who is more sensitive to their surroundings and may require more emotional support. This has helped me in all facets of babysitting as it has made me more mindful to how a child may be responding to their surroundings and what uncomfortable emotions a setting may be triggering for the child. Due to completing compulsory education and now studying for my undergraduate degree, I have the experience and knowledge to assist and support in all levels of homework as well allow opportunities for ‘funner’ after school activities like baking, playing games and watching TV. I also completed a period of teaching English abroad in Malaysia in a refugee school to children ages 4-14.

My name is Ava, and I am currently studying at Leeds Beckett University, doing criminology and psychology. I have recently moved to the UK from previously living in Portugal and Dubai. My mum works as a primary teaching assistant, and my dad works abroad in Saudi Arabia as a construction manager. Some of my own personal qualities are that the people around me have always described me as being a very outgoing, lovable, and funny person. I'm able to get along with anyone around me, including children, as well as their parents, which makes it a more safe and comfortable atmosphere for everyone. Within my previous job, i worked as a photography assistant at a family photography studio and learning to care for children of all ages and making sure they were comfortable in the studio at all times to ensure the shoot went smoothly for the whole family. I have gained a great deal of life experience from living in different cultures and have become more open-minded. I did a lot of sports growing up as well as going to the gym during my A levels, so I understand how important meal prep and eating a healthy home-cooked meal can be. In my previous job, I worked as a photography assistant and had to learn how to care for the needs of children ages 6 months to 14 years old, and i learnt how to care and comfort them in many situations. I had to use skills of patience and kindness to ensure the children felt happy and comfortable during the photography shoots. I have done my GCSEs and did A-levels and am now at university studying criminology with psychology.

I embarked on a solo journey across the vast expanses of Australia, demonstrating a high level of independence, responsibility, and adaptability when responding to an array of circumstances and challenges. This journey gave me a rare sense of self-reliance and enhanced my adaptability when innovatively responding to various environments and situations. I take pride in being reliable and trustworthy, a person upon whom others can rely without reservation. Moreover, I am confident when faced with new situations and possess an innate ability to adapt and thrive amidst change. My ability to navigate unfamiliar territories has been significantly honed during my travels, proving that I am capable of taking on any challenge with a steady hand and a calm mind. I derive immense joy from engaging with children through various modes, whether it be through creative play, guiding them in outdoor activities, or immersing ourselves in the magic of reading. I recognize the potential of these activities to nurture a child's creativity, enhance their learning, and instill a love for exploration and knowledge. Fulfilling domestic responsibilities is within my comfort zone. I can confidently assist with tasks such as homework, guiding kids during mealtimes, and setting up effective and calming bedtime routines. I understand that these routine tasks form a vital part of a child's day, and I am committed to ensuring these routines are as smooth, comfortable, and enjoyable for the children as possible. I’ve gained childcare experience in a variety of settings, including completing work experience in a nursery, providing casual babysitting for families in the UK, and helping to look after a friend’s child. I also solo travelled around Australia, which taught me responsibility, independence, and adaptability. I really enjoy spending time with children and aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for them
