Hi! My name is Jess, and I’m a friendly, caring babysitter who truly enjoys spending time with children. I have a degree in Biomedical Science, which has given me a strong awareness of health and safety, and I bring that same attentiveness into childcare. At home, I look after two dogs and a cat, so I’m very comfortable in busy households (and happy to help with pets, too!).
Families often describe me as patient, reliable, and easygoing. My goal is always to make kids feel safe, cared for, and entertained - whether that means playing games, reading stories, or keeping to their routines. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide a safe, happy environment for your little ones.
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of Surbiton for work.

I hold a degree in Biomedical Science, which has given me a strong foundation in health, safety, and attention to detail. I have prior babysitting experience caring for two children over the age of five, where I was responsible for keeping them safe, engaged, and supported in daily routines.
At home, I care for my own two dogs and a cat, which has strengthened my sense of responsibility, patience, and ability to manage different needs at once. I currently live at home, giving me flexibility and a supportive environment for taking on childcare responsibilities.
I bring a caring, reliable, and attentive approach to babysitting, with a focus on ensuring children feel secure and happy while in my care.

Since I was 13, I have been able to gain experience of working with children and families. Through working at a ballet school as a teaching assistant, weekly, as well as volunteering at a Primary school on a regular basis. This has made me confident in caring for a wide age range of children.
I have 10 GCSE qualifications, including Maths and English and am currently working towards my A-levels (Psychology, Sociology and Politics).
Music, dance and art are all areas I have a lot of interest in and work towards including all of these in my day to day life.
I am 17 years old, and I am currently studying 3 A levels in year 12 at sixth form.
I have 3+ years experience working with children, I have helped every other week in my church’s Sunday school working with ages ranging from pre-school to year 6. I have shown leadership skills and taught the children, whilst developing friendships with them too!
I also help every year at a summer camp for primary school children where I help lead a group, conduct activities and care for the children.
Recently, I completed a week of work experience at my primary school with a class of reception children who saw me as an authority figure but we also had fun together!
I am also part of a mentoring scheme at school, which involves meeting with a year 7 girl every week to help and mentor her; giving her advice and supporting her.
Overall, I love working with children and caring for them, so I would be a perfect role model and carer for your child! :)
