I am a 31 year old female who has experience in teaching, babysitting and nannying children aged from 2 to 13 years of age. I worked as a before and after-school nanny for 4 years for two families (aged between 7 and 10) where my duties included breakfast/dinner/snacks, packing lunches, playing games/fun activities, homework, transporting them to extra-curricular activities (choir/archery/chess club/drama club), day trips (beach/cinema/zoo), bath-time, bedtime, occasional overnights and everyday school drop-off & pickup. I have taught private Gaelic unsupervised lessons to students aged 8-10 and spent 3 years teaching singing & music lessons in a Stage School to children aged 3-18 with groups of 10+ students. I have two years previous experience in overnight babysitting 3 children (aged 3, 6 and 7) in Ireland and I have diaper changing and potty training experience along with experience with special needs. I adore working with kids and I am a Read more very patient and caring person. I am a multi-tasker and a problem-solver. I care about the well-being of others and this is evident in my experience as the head coach of a Special Olympics Basketball team for 9 years.
