About me
I'm a recent Cambridge graduate with several years' experience working closely with private families, both during and before my degree. I've built genuine, trusting relationships with the children I've cared for, and I aim to strike the right balance between being a responsible presence and a fun, familiar face they look forward to seeing. Families have trusted me with tutoring too, including 11+ preparation and general schoolwork support. I've worked with children ranging from 4 to 16 years old. I'm currently taking a gap year before starting a Masters, and outside of childcare I love reading, writing, watching far too much reality TV, and playing the violin.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Frankie. Frankie started babysitting for us approximately 4 or 5 years ago. She worked as a casual babysitter, sometimes putting the kids to bed (the girls would have been 4 and 6 when she started I think), sometimes hanging out for the afternoon or going for a local trip to the park or local activity, and preparing simple food. She has done this intermittently for several years. Frankie is highly responsible and a brilliant role model for my children. They LOVE her, and couldn't be happier for us to go out if she's babysitting. I feel complete trust in her ability to care for them and make sensible, flexible decisions, while following their timetable. Most importantly, the children just have a great time with her. She is wonderful combination of responsible, caring, laid-back and fun. She is also a deeply bright and interesting person with the sorts of interests (reading, music) that any parent would hope rub off on their kid! Consider this my full and whole hearted recommendation.
I have known Franki for about two years. She worked with us over two summers, doing drop off and some pick ups from clubs for our two children. Our youngest was five and the eldest was nine. She was always on time, responsible and thoughtful with the kids. Calm and respectful. Interested in the kids.
