Katie, babysitter in Gateshead

I am a mother myself as well as a level 2 childcare professional.

I am looking to babysit children ages 0-11 years.I am willing to help with homework if needed and to do light housework if needed as I know how stressful it can be when you have housework piling up on you and children to look after.

Cache level 2 qualified in childcare and education
I hold a cleared DBS
pediatric basic first aid certificate
I have my own children aged 4 and one aged 6 months
I have done placement for my childcare course in a reception and year one class working with 4-6 year old children
Worked at a children's center with 0-5 year old children.

I was a lone parent until recently so I know the difficulties of looking after children as well as having qualifications.

I have worked with babies and helping them achieve their first milestones as well as doing this with my own children.

I have worked with toddlers doing messy play and songs but I can plan activities from whatever your child enjoys.

I have worked with primary school children aged 4-6 years helping them to learn how to write their own name, numbers, letters and words as well as helping them read and doing sports activities.

I am happy to work with 7-11 year old children also I have looked after family members of this age mainly playing computer games, helping with homework and doing sports activities.
