Hi, my name is Laura I am 19 years old and I am currently in my third year of studying Fine Art at the University of Dundee. I am looking to begin babysitting in my spare time after uni. I come from a family of five children and as the eldest of the five I often cared for my siblings and cousins before and after school. As a result of this I have a keen interest in teaching and would like to pursue this after my undergraduate degree. During high school I started an arts and crafts class at my local primary school and then set up an art club for the first years at my secondary school. I find working with children to be highly rewarding. I am prepared to help with chores and homework and also enjoy cooking and reading. I have previously worked as a cleaner in a chippy and as a crew member at McDonalds and can provide work related, personal and academic references.

I have never been paid to babysit before as I have only ever taken care of my siblings and cousins, so I have no idea what is an appropriate amount to charge. I chose £8 per hour as that seemed reasonable, however I am willing to negotiate this with the family. I have also organised after school clubs and classes in arts and crafts for both primary and secondary children.
