Introduction

To whom it may concern,
My name is Courtney . I am a fun and active 30 years old who is passionate about children. For the last 11 years I have been involved in various sole-charge roles in education, sport, education and home-based assistance. I am well trained and educated, currently finishing my bachelor’s degree with my major in youthwork and having completed certifications in Childhood Psychology and Development, Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), Teaching English as a Foreign Language Level 5 (Celta Equivalent), Teaching English to Young Learners and Pediatric First Aid.
I have many strengths in childcare, home administration and a wealth of knowledge in education and psychology of children. I bake and cook very well; tidy, organize, clean, can do first aid and grocery shopping, pet care, run errands and love children wholeheartedly. I have both a European and International Driver’s license, being a very experienced driver in both systems. I am an incredibly fast learner with great potential, reliability, attention to detail and a rare capacity to serve. In my free time I enjoy playing sport, baking, building puzzles, playing instruments, exploring nature, travel and extensive adventures.
I believe childhood education development is brought through both formal and informal activity. It is something which is best brought in doing activities which engage the child individually and should be oriented towards their interests and passions. For this reason, I take an interest in each child as an individual and encourage their learning and language skills by enhancing, extending and enriching their education from that reference point. I am dedicated towards assisting children in reaching their developmental mile stones and become the best that they can be; to find their strengths, build on their weaknesses and witness and value their uniqueness.
I believe in hard work and fun learning and have introduced numerous children to the English language abroad and greatly developed those who already had knowledge. Pre-Covid 19 I fulfilled 3 sole-charge positions Internationally as a live-in Nanny, EFL Tutor / Governess and Family Assistant. I began in Brescia, Italy where I was helping in a high-profile, professional sportsman’s home with a 3-year-old boy and 6-year-old girl. I introduced the 3-year-old to English and within 3 months we were conversing and both children had learned to swim and increased their strength and coordination through my skillset. I went on to a live-in ESL tutor role in Hangzhou, China caring for and teaching two girls aged 5 and 11. Here I introduced the 5-year-old to the English language before she moved across to an International School; I tutored and assisted the 11-year-old as her school work was in English and also providing swimming and tennis training. The year of 2020 was an interesting one for us all. I spent the year in the Netherlands looking after a high-class family, teaching and nannying their 6-year-old boy and 9-year-old girl. I enjoy experiencing different cultures and brining my passion for what I do into families across different nationalities and cultures.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Courtney
