Jemma, home childcare in Upper cwmbran NP44

Hi there, my name is Jemma , I am female and 25 years old. I'm friendly, bubbly, have a good sense of humour and am easy to get along with ! I have worked with children/young adults in a special needs school for 5 years, ranging from ages 4-18. My duties involved a number of things ranging from personal care, organizing activities, helping with classwork/organizing classwork, preparing meals etc.

I also have extensive experience babysitting family members, which were my 4 younger cousins from the ages of when the were 2 years old to 10. I built a good relationship with the students I worked with, a 'fun but fair' attitude where I'd make sure they enjoyed themselves that they felt they could talk to me/ask about things, and that the activities/lessons that we had were fun, but also made sure I was firm with them when I needed to be and they knew despite me being a friend that they had to listen to instructions given by me and what I was telling them if they misbehaved.

I would be able to help with homework if needed. I have lots of experience with video games and computers ! I also have a big mental catalogue of fun activities to do from my experience of working in a school for as long as I did. :) Also having worked with special needs, although some were very able and only suffered mild disabilities, some displayed very challenging behavior, so I am used to dealing with all kinds of behaviors and situations in a calm, level headed manner.

I have my own vehicle, so if you would be happy with it I would be happy to take your child out to do fun activities such as go to the park or go swimming should you wish.

Thanks for reading, please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or are interested in hiring me to look after your children, and I hope to hear from you soon ! :)
