Hi Moms and Dads. I am a fun, responsible, organized, and reliable 34 year old female who loves working with children. I'm a qualified pre-school teacher who has been teaching and Au Pairing for 14 years. I have lots of experience working with children of all ages and look forward to hearing from you. I am currently looking for a Part-time position of around only 2-3 hours a day. Please contact me for my full CV and references.
