I took sport, childcare and sociology at a-level. I love working with kids and playing sports with them, having fun is what’s important! I mentored some girls this year at my church and have loved to watch them grow as young women, learning more about them as individuals and where they’re headed to next in life. I’m a proud auntie to two nieces, and I have experience in sports coaching youth! I have done a year internship working for Redeemer church in Worthing as a kids and youth leader, leading games and looking after kids during church etc. I have done work experience at a nursery and I’ve grown up with 3 siblings. I’ve done babysitting for multiple mums here at my church so I’m sure they can send references if you’re interested :)I’m a Christian and would love to help you out at home and get to know your kids!!

I am an experienced Early Years Educator with nearly eight years in childcare, working with children from as young as three months old. I am passionate about supporting children’s development through nurturing, engaging, and age-appropriate care. I have previously held a Room Lead position, which strengthened my leadership and organisational skills, before returning to a practitioner role to focus on hands-on work with children. Alongside my nursery experience, I also provide ad hoc nannying and babysitting, caring for children in a variety of settings including family homes and events. This has made me highly adaptable, reliable, and confident in creating a safe, calm, and fun environment wherever I work. I live with my partner, Jack, and our two dogs, Remy and Alfie. In my spare time, I enjoy music and reading, and I have a particular love for Disney. I have visited Walt Disney World in Orlando six times and Disneyland Paris twice, and I enjoy travelling with my partner and exploring new places whenever I can. I am friendly, approachable, and dependable, with a patient and caring nature. I take pride in building strong relationships with both children and families, and I strive to create a warm, supportive environment where children feel safe, happy, and confident to grow.

I later chose to return to a practitioner role, allowing me to focus more directly on working with children and supporting their individual development. Alongside my nursery experience, I also undertake ad hoc nannying and babysitting. This includes providing care in a variety of settings, such as an upcoming wedding in May where I will be responsible for children for an extended period of 23.5 hours. These roles have strengthened my adaptability, reliability, and ability to create a safe, nurturing environment in different situations. Overall, my experience has given me a strong understanding of child development across all early years stages, along with the flexibility and confidence to support children’s needs in both structured and informal settings.

My names Layla-Lareen, and im an enthusiastic and caring young person from a Libyan family of six. As the eldest daughter, responsibility has pretty much been part of my job description for years. Since I was 8, I've helped care for my younger siblings since they were in nappies. Which honestly? Has given me a lot of patience, empathy, and experience supporting children in everyday life. I genuinely love roles where I can help, support, and encourage others. I'm naturally nurturing, highly empathetic, and always try to make people feel comfortable and included. To see children flourish and express themselves under my support, is seriously the most rewarding thing I thankfully got to witness for myself. My faith and personal values are very important to me and have shaped the way I approach caring for others-with kindness, respect, and true compassion. In my spare time, you'll probably find me drawing, listening to music, playing chess, gaming, or working on some sort of creative project that makes me lose track of time. I've recently completed my GCSEs and am expecting strong grades (A's and A stars inshallah!), reflecting how dedicated and hardworking I am in everything I take on. I'm known for being warm, reliable, and determined, although friends and family would probably also tell you that I have a tendency to overthink and triple-check everything (You can never be too sure!). I take pride in doing my best, and I love opportunities where I can make a positive difference while continuing to learn and grow. Also please do note I am 16!! Outside of school, I completed a work experience placement at Little Petals Day Nursery, where I supported staff and helped care for young children ranging from ages 4 months to 5 years. I have younger siblings of my own, and so i truly enjoyed the experience, as it taught me patience, adaptability, and how to manage in a real world setting. It also served as a prevalent reminder on how it is to approach every role with care, especially when others are relying on you. It was rewarding to see how each action shaped a child in a positive light, an experience that really shaped my viewpoint on what meaningful work really is. I also have taken care of two younger siblings growing up, and have background skills when it comes to keeping environments clean, tidy and safe!

I truly believe that being a great babysitter is more than just watching over children, it’s about creating a safe, joyful, and engaging space where kids feel loved, understood, and free to be themselves. I don’t just “babysit”, I connect. Children are naturally drawn to my warm and playful personality. I have a genuine love for kids and an intuitive understanding of their needs, feelings, and energy levels. Whether we’re building pillow forts, diving into story time, doing arts and crafts, or just talking about their day, I meet them where they are and make them feel heard and valued.What sets me apart is my patience and ability to stay calm even in unpredictable situations. I know how to balance fun with boundaries, and I treat every child with the same care and respect I’d want for someone looking after my own family. I’m attentive to detail, creative with problem-solving, and always prepared to handle anything from minor scrapes to big emotions with kindness and care. Parents often tell me how much their children look forward to the time we spend together. I take that to heart, it means I’ve built a bond based on trust, comfort, and consistency. To me, that's the real reward of babysitting: becoming someone children feel safe with and excited to be around. I’m committed to continuing to grow in this role, whether it’s learning new child development techniques, taking safety courses, or adapting to different parenting styles. I know that with every new family I work with, I gain more experience, compassion, and confidence. My ultimate goal is not just to be a good babysitter, but a great one, one who makes a lasting, positive impact on every child I care for. When kids are excited to see me and parents feel completely at ease, I know I’m exactly where I’m meant to be. I had work experience at a nursery assistant and I gained so many skills on how to deal with kids and also children’s with special needs. I have also done baby sitting for family members and other families. I am really friendly and supportive with children and always make them feel safe. I understand when a child is in distress and help them with the best of my ability and every kid I have been with has loved me very much. I can deal with children in challenging situations by reassuring them and by giving them the love they deserve.

I am a responsible, caring, and dependable individual with strong experience supporting and caring for children through tutoring, volunteering, and childcare roles. I am passionate about creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment where children feel secure, supported, and encouraged to develop both academically and personally. I have gained valuable experience through volunteering at Scouts, where I regularly assist in supervising children, supporting activities, and encouraging teamwork, confidence, and independence. This role has strengthened my leadership skills, patience, and ability to work well with children in both structured and active group settings. I also volunteered at a nursery, where I supported younger children with daily routines, play-based activities, and general care in a nurturing environment. This experience gave me a strong understanding of early childhood needs, communication, and the importance of providing attentive and consistent support. In addition, I have tutoring experience, helping children with their learning in a way that is clear, patient, and adapted to their individual needs. I focus on building confidence as well as academic understanding, aiming to make learning enjoyable and encouraging. Alongside my formal experience, I have significant practical experience caring for children and am confident managing responsibilities such as keeping children engaged, maintaining routines, and responding calmly and responsibly to different situations. I am often described as patient, trustworthy, organised, and approachable. I come from a family-oriented background and understand how important trust, communication, and reliability are when caring for children. In my free time, I enjoy reading, creative activities, and outdoor pursuits, which I often use to encourage children’s curiosity, creativity, and enjoyment. I take pride in being someone families can rely on, and I always aim to provide attentive care while supporting each child’s individual needs and wellbeing. I currently volunteer as an adult leader for scouts( children from the ages 10-14). I have tutored gcse students and I have also volunteered at a nursery. I have done my GCSES and A-levels.

I am an A-Level student who has a natural interest in working with and supporting children. I approach every situation with patience and attentiveness, making sure children feel secure and understood. I believe that creating a safe environment is the foundation of good care, so I would always be mindful of safeguarding and wellbeing while also encouraging play, learning, and creativity. I enjoy bringing a positive and calm energy, which helps children feel comfortable and confident. Caring for children is important to me because it’s a chance to help shape happy experiences and contribute to their growth and development. When caring for children, my first priority would always be their safety and wellbeing. I would make sure the environment is secure, free from hazards, and that children are supervised at all times. I would follow clear routines to ensure consistency and provide gentle guidance so children feel both safe and supported. At the same time, I would nurture their growth by offering kindness, patience, and positive encouragement, helping them to explore and learn with confidence. For me, caring for children is about balancing warmth and fun with responsibility, so they are safe, happy, and free to be themselves.
