I'm an experienced kindergarten teacher looking to care for children during the school holidays/weekends/evenings. I am a very calm person and also hold firm but fair boundaries. I have experience working with children with additional needs.
Over the course of my teaching career and babysitting, I have supported children on the autism spectrum, children with ADHD, selective mutism, and children with complex medical needs. I believe in firm but fair boundaries, a structured routine that is informed by the child's needs, and creating a happy and safe environment.
I have 4 years of experience in the field, with two of those being a kindergarten teacher for three-year-old kindergarten. I have cared for children from six months up to twelve years old. I also have some babysitting experience, having looked after very young children, primary school aged children, and children with additional needs. My babysitting experience consists of weekend or evening work. I love reading and storytelling with children and I will always follow the child's interests and needs. Please note that I am much more flexible with my availability during the school holidays as this is when I am off work.
