Manuela, childcare provider in Dalkeith EH22

Hi! My name is Manuela, but all my friends call me Ema, it's short and easy. I'm a romanian girl and i'm here to study, I do distance learning ( management ), so I have a lot of free time. I lived 2 years in London, and in July I decide to come in Edinburgh. In the past three years, I mainly worked for 2 different families, one in London and one in York and I worked for both families more than one and a half years. Both times I was looking after a small boy, in London from 3 years to 5 years old and in York from 2 years to 4 years old. My tasks included, school and nursery runs, cooking, morning routines, including waking the child up, getting him dressed, breakfast and getting him ready for school or nursery, bedtime routine including, bathtime, dinner and bedtime stories, planning activities for the day, including going to the park, swimming pool or indoor playground, helping with homework and cleaning. Next, to this, I worked as a babysitter for a variety of families. These babysitting jobs included looking after up to four children of different ages during the day or night time and on weekends. Activities here included: cooking, bedtime routines, picking children up from school, planning activities for the day and sometimes overnight stay.
