Additional work history

I have been a private babysitter for a young couple. The child was 8 months old. I was doing that alongside working at St Junior's Day Nursery. My skills that I entailed upon working at St Junior's, helped me to ensure the child that I was caring for was to the best of my abilities. I was required to do bottle feeding, nappy changing, meal and snack preparation, educational activities, and ensure routine was followed that the child had, give feedback to the parents and listen to instructions given.

Other Information About Me

I have been out of work since 2021 because I have been raising my 2 children as a solo  parent. But I am eager to return back to work when my children are in nursery/school.
