Alina, babysitting - EH7 Edinburgh

Hello,

My name is Alina, I'm 19 years old and I'm half Dutch and half Ukrainian. I come from an international background, as due to my father's job our family has moved around quite a bit. I graduated from a private school in Singapore and am now studying biomedical sciences at the University of Edinburgh.

Although I have no professional qualifications, I did grow up with a sibling 6 years younger than me and often had to babysit her and her friends. I also spent a few of my high school years babysitting. I think that the most important thing I have taken away from my past experiences is the ability to get creative when encouraging children to do something they may not wish to do, like eating their veggies or going to bed.

I definitely enjoy being playful with kids and I'm confident in my ability to cook for them and help them with their homework as well. I comfortable with pets and going outdoors, too. Among my favourite things are painting and playing the piano, so I would love to engage your children in creative activities.

Sincerely thankful for you consideration,
Alina .
