Welcome message:

Hello! I’m George :) I love to look after children and pets in my spare time. I’m happy to help with homework and chores and cooking along with creative tasks like drawing and playing musical instruments. I’m also happy to look after pets, although I’m most comfortable with cats over any other pets. I’m proficient in maths and science up to GCSE and A Level, and I enjoy doing art and cooking. I’ve had pets of my own and I’ve regularly looked after younger family members, so I’m confident in my ability. Throughout school I’ve completed first aid and CPR training and have worked with children with special needs.

I’m happy to work at my home or yours, and I’d love to meet new people :)

Hello

I understand how difficult it is to take care of children and how overwhelming it could be sometimes no matter how much you love them. therefore, I would love to help you by taking care of your children for a while so you can focus on yourself or do things you might not be able to do whilst taking care of the children.
