Since 2024: I regularly look after two young children after school. I collect them at the end of the school day and walk them home. I make sure they are safe, comfortable and that their own pace is respected. I also enjoy offering them activities suited to their age: drawing, educational games, creative activities, conversation and quiet time. I prepare and supervise their afternoon snack and their dinner.
Since 2022: I give private lessons to children and students in a range of subjects, particularly languages, mathematics and physics. I take the time to understand each student’s difficulties so that I can offer them a learning method that suits them. This experience has taught me patience, teaching skills and attentiveness, as well as how to encourage children and value their progress. Alongside this, I have built up my own private tutoring activity and now support more than fifteen students, which has allowed me to build an excellent relationship with children and families alike, and to be organised, independent and reliable in following each child’s progress.
I have learned that with children, no two days are the same. You have to listen, adapt, encourage and sometimes simply be there. I like to create an environment in which a child feels confident enough to learn, play, express themselves and be themselves.
I am a very cheerful, patient, gentle and attentive person. A child’s wellbeing matters a great deal to me and I know how to adapt to their character, their habits and their needs. Creative and energetic, I enjoy finding new ideas to keep children entertained in a fun and enriching way.
Serious and responsible, I always make sure they are safe while giving them the space they need to develop their independence. My experience in childcare and tutoring means I can offer creative and educational activities as well as help with homework.
My aim is simple: parents should be able to leave with complete peace of mind, knowing their child is in good hands, and the child should have a good time in my company.
