I am 22 years old and have graduated from the University of Reading where I studied Psychology. I am now saving up to go traveling. I recently moved to Pontypridd so I am looking for new families to babysit or nanny for. I will consider anything from one off babysitting roles to long term regular nanny roles and am currently available at all times.
I am the eldest of five in my family so I have lots of experience with children from birth to adolescence. As a result I am experienced in and comfortable with nappy changing, feeding, entertaining, helping with homework, bathing, bedtime stories, etc.
I also have experience outside of my family. I first babysat for a neighbour whilst I was at sixth form college, the child was a 5 year old girl. Whilst studying at university I worked as a nanny looking after a 7 month old child twice a week, and in school holidays also his brother aged 8 years, whilst their mum worked from her home office. My most recent babysitting was for a single parent family looking after a 6 year old girl and 9 year old boy.
I have an APA accredited bachelors degree in Psychology from the University of Reading in which I achieved 2:1. This includes modules on typical and atypical child development and Autism Spectrum Conditions giving me a good understanding of the stages of development different children are at and what needs an atypical child might have.
