About me
I have experience working with children and young people of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I am extremely adept at learning likes and dislikes, and at building relationships. I meet children where they're at, and build safe and joyful spaces wherever I may be working (school, hospital, home etc.). In my current role, I may be soothing a newborn to sleep, and then transfer into another room to play Fifa with a 15 year old. I am energetic, creative, and flexible in all of my roles. I ensure that the child or young person has a safe environment to experience the world through, and provide what they need to explore and discover more. I often encourage mess, but I always clean it up!

I've known Aisling for about a year and a half. We work together - she is a play worker at Great Ormond Street Hospital. She's very bubbly and charismatic. She is really good with the children, parents and gets on well with the staff. She is very sensible and good at her role. She works with newborns up to 18 years old. She is definitely reliable. I would certainly recommend her - if I had children, I would be happy her babysitting for me.
Aisling is really outgoing, confident and really lovely to work with. You can definitely trust and confide in her. She is a play worker on the oncology ward and the learning disability play worker. I would absolutely recommend her because she is wonderful with the kids, of all ages. She is just very trustworthy - you can count on her.
