Introduction
Experience
- I started babysitting for several families in Paris for 2 years where I took care of children between 4 to 10 years old after school for about 2 to 4 hours.
- I then moved to Scotland for about a year and a half as an Au Pair and was looking after an 8yo girl and 10yo twins boy and girl. I was preparing their lunch box for the day in the mornings and helping them getting ready and welcome them back home after school, help with homework, play and cook dinner.
- I then got a certificate in childcare as I was doing some babysitting after school back in Paris for 2 families at the same time, taking care of two 3yo girls and two 7yo boys.
- I moved to Australia, again as an Aupair, for 6 months while I took care of a 4yo boy and a 6yo boy. I was driving them to school every morning and pick them up in the afternoon. I stayed home with the youngest 3 days a week as he didn't have school. We used to play at home or go out to the park or to the beach with the scooter or bicycle.
- When I came back to Paris, I started working in a nursery for a year. I was taking care and looking after babies from 4 months old to 3 years old all day long from Monday to Friday. In this same nursery, I've done an apprenticeship to become an early childhood educator for 3 years. During this program, I did an internship in a Montessori school for 2 months in Paris for 3 to 6 yo, and another one in Toronto, Canada for 2 months in a preschool class (3-6 yo) of a kindergarten. I also graduated in Science of Education at the same time.
