Babysitter after work and weekends
| I was an au-pair for 3 months in the UK, and I’m the eldest of 3 girls, so I’ve been babysitting my two sisters from when I was 9 and until I was 21. I love children, but I don’t have my own, so when I look after them my time and attention is fully focused on them. Available to work from 6pm Monday to Friday and whole day weekends (with previous notice)

Friendly and Intelligent Lady
| Hello Parent, My name is Sarah and I love children. All children are unique and I’ve learned that you need to be patient with them and not compare them with others. I recently moved to Reading to be closer to family, friends, and school. I'm an MRES in Film student and due to my experience caring for babies and a very sweet 6-year-old, I would love to be a part of your family - caring for your child when you're busy. I would love to find the perfect fit because this is very important in the long run. I grew up in Nigeria with 4 siblings - two of whom I practically raised. My younger siblings and I had quite an age gap, so it was easy to think of them as mine. I was a Sunday school teacher in my home church so I like being around children. I'm a Christian, I don't drink or smoke, and the most fun activity I enjoy having with children are storytelling, writing, reading, drawing, and playing outdoors. So, kindly respond if you would like to know more about me, and please do share more about your child's needs and frequency.

We reached out to Sarah, after searching for so long for a nanny for our daughters. As a busy couple we needed the certainty of somebody to come in and take care of things without the need of our interventions during the day. Sarah was amazing. From day time to overnight stays, our daughters formed a great relationship with her and the chemistry was great. From feeding, to personal care, to playing, and general care even within the home, I would fully recommend Sarah as a carer to your children. You won't be disappointed!"

My name is Susanna. I love to be around children and find joy in helping them.
| I am naturally a happy person with good communication and organizational skills that I believe are some of the most important skills to have when caring for children. I love reading and doing creative things like painting and sketching in my free time. I can help and organize fun activities to do with children, such as painting, drawing and other fun activities. I also enjoy outdoor activities and can take children to parks or swimming classes or group activities. Before this experience I had spent a lot of time abroad in Spain, US and Germany. I also used to volunteer in the summer to work with kids and help them with their homework, play with them and draw. The children I took care of made me grow up and mature even more, I will never thank them enough. It is the most wonderful and satisfying experience I have had.

It was lovely to meet this family orientated nanny. She is knowledgeable and friendly and intuitively understood our son. She was able to put my husband and I at ease by communicating creative ideas for our young son’s routine and development. She was willing to work hard to accommodate our work from home schedule. Would highly recommend her for any position."

Young, energetic, safe and trusting student
| Hello, my name is Kaia. I am 20 years old, and I am now a second year Law student at University of Reading. I have great relationships and experience with children, even though I have not been formally employed working with children, I have always been great with looking after and caring for children of various ages. I am very responsible, reliable, energetic, hard working, caring, trusting, and fulfil my commitments to the fullest extent. Outside of my academics and always being in the library, I love to stay active and have been doing athletics and playing hockey for over 10 years now, (as I continue both sports for my university teams). I also love to cook and bake! This is something I aim to do as much as possible when I have the time. Being a very orderly and scheduled person, organisation is key, and your child will be in reliable hands. I have recent experience over the last few months of babysitting, and privately tutoring children. I love children and have plenty of experience working with and caring for them, in my primary school, family friends, siblings, cousins etc, and have plenty of patience and mothering attributes, as well as my reliability and responsibility.

I am basically a pharmacist but i am not pursuing pharmacy currently because i want to be with my child at the moment. Child care is something that i enjoy the most since i have a kid of my own.

This is why i want to help those families by sharing love and kindness that i feel for my child so that the parents could be at ease. Currently i am nannying/babysitting a 1 year old child (reference can be provided). Previously, I have nannied for a family in luton (i can share the contacts on demand). Would love to work as a baby sitter or a nanny because i feel i while i am taking care of other children i can take care of my child with them. Please feel free to reach out to me . I'll be more than happy to help.

We've been so lucky to have found Iman! She's been an absolute treat in our lives and a second mom to our little boy. She's the type of person any parent would love to have taking care of their child. Kind, patient, easy going and friendly. James is always so excited to see her and runs into her arms with a massive smile on his face. They spend a lot of time outside both with long walks and trips to the park. It makes the world of difference knowing that your child is happy and well looked after while you're at work. We're only saying goodbye as we're moving out of the area but it's with a very very heavy heart. It's simply not possible for me to recommend Iman enough."
