Hello families,
My name is Raissa, and I am 31 years old. I have been working with children since 2018 when I was living in Australia. I have extensive experience with kids of all ages, especially from 5 months to 3 years old. I also worked as an Au Pair for a busy family for 2 years, helping them before and after school by getting the kids ready, preparing healthy meals, handling drop-offs and pick-ups, and managing bath and dinner time. I love spending time playing with and taking care of children.
I am also very good at cooking. In my last three nanny positions, I worked with families for several months, caring for little ones between 6 months and 1.5 years old.
Currently, I'm looking for casual nannying jobs and evening babysitting opportunities in my free time. I am an observant, careful, and caring person with good references and a DBS check. If you like my profile, please send me a message. I look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you,
Raissa Goncalves

I have 10 GCSES and have just finished doing my A Levels. I have volunteered at a residential care home for the elderly for nearly 3 years and have babysat for neighbours and family friends on a regular basis. I have done some dog sitting for an elderly dog and usually do this as a last minute fill in. I have trained as a dental nurse during my work experience at a dental practice and have a part time job at Tesco.
Hi, I am Katy! I am 25 years old and a happy and social person. I have wanted to work with children for many years and was previously part of a Brownie troupe that helped me learn more about children. As a child I went to a child minder and spent lots of time around other children, this is when I realised I enjoyed interacting with younger children. As a teen I babysat local children while I was doing my GCSEs, one of which was in child development.
My passions are cooking/baking and outdoor sports, both of which I would be able to teach and encourage within your children. I am a very organised person who loves halloween and christmas, I would be able to plan themed activities for your children.
I have 2 cats, which I have had for 2 years, they are a brother and sister who are just over 2, called Tinkerbell and Toothless.
I'm looking for Casual/temporary, Part-time, Full-time employment.
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of Sheffield for work.

I have completed a masters of science in food consumer marketing and product development and a bsc in Food Marketing Management. I am looking to expand my career possibilities as I love working with kids, but was encouraged to follow my passion for food. I volunteered with children at a brownies troupe for over a year and massively enjoyed this, I would have continued if it was not due to a house move, due to this I have had a DBS check, however it will be specific to the brownie organisation. Like many people, as a teenager I was a baby sitter for local children, this was supported by my GCSE in Child development. I have an interest in food so would always be available to cook with your children and teach them whatever they would like to know. I am a very organised person so your home would be kept neat and tidy.
