About Lori

26 years old Speaks English
I am reliable, committed and responsible and enjoy looking after children. I have babysat for family, friends and neighbours from a young age and have always wanted to work in the care sector. Just after finishing school I went abroad to do au pairing in Rome.This involved looking after three children ages 3,5 and 7. The role involved assisting them in their daily activities and teaching them English which Expanded my knowledge and communication skills. I have also completed an HNC in social services and an SVQ 3 in children and young people. Through this I was able to carry out a placement at Braidburn special needs school. This involved supporting children with various additional needs. This allowed me to apply the knowledge taught from lectures and tutorials when working with these children to support them to the best of my ability. In addition to this, I have also worked at leaps and bounds after school club supporting primary school children. I have had a lot of experience working with various different children and feel I am well suited to the role of child care.

Lori worked for our family taking care of three children aged 3,6 and 7, from July until November 2016. Her role was live-in. We found Lori to be very helpful, caring, reliable and sweet with the children - always with a smile on her face. She was able to hold the attention of each child, creating interesting games for them, even though there was a language barrier it didnt get in the way. We would gladly have kept Lori working with us, but she had to leave to complete her studies. We recommend her for a position working with children. I am happy to be contacted for any further information. Lucrezia Lucifero
