I started working with children at David Lloyd Leisure Club in Beckenham in 2009, I started as a creche assistant for children aged 3 months-5 years old, I would have eight children assigned to me a session and we formed really strong bonds. As well as the creche I worked on the kids team which involved me running and co-ordinating children's parties, summer holiday camp (which meant I looked after 25 children, with one other kids team member from the hours of 7am-6pm) and I also did some teaching in toddler classes such as arts and crafts and gymnastics. I absolutely adored my job and worked there for almost four years and also babysat for a lot of the members of the club as I spent a lot of time with their lovely children. Unfortunately I had to leave my position as I fell pregnant, I had two years off looking after my almost three year old son, which is the most rewarding job I have ever done! I have finally gone back to work now as a clinical researcher for Urology. As I only work part time I am in need a little bit of extra money and I thought what better way than doing a job I adored!
Whilst at DL I accquired training specific certificates for early years child care, face painting, party co-ordination, holiday camp running, circus workshop and basic first aid.
I am very bubbly and relaxed but would of course follow any instructions given and feel happy to be helping a family and keeping their children busy and happy too for a few hours!
I can do homework, play lots of games, arts and crafts, cooking, cleaning, laundry.
I can give any references from previous managers at DL and even previous families I have babysat for.
I look forward to hearing from you! :)
