Laura, niñera a domicilio en Barcelona

Hola!

Laura here, English Language Teacher from Yorkshire, UK.

I'm a young professional living in central Barcelona since 2017. Throughout my time here I've gained experience living and working with 2 native Spanish families as well as working for 2 established companies.

Throughout this year I've had the pleasure of Nanny'in for various families around Barcelona and keep to keep this going.

I'm confident that my experience in these fields have allowed me to develop my inter personal skills as an individual and have enabled me to be open to any foreseeable challenge, big or small.

Here's a little about me..

Before moving to Barcelona in 2017 I signed up to one of the Au Pair websites here in Spain to create a profile for myself and get in contact with some suitable families. My first family was 2 young girls full of life and a passion for English, my time with them was great as I felt a real connection to the girls and it was amazing to see how far their English, and confidence in general, had improved towards the end of my stay.

My second experience as an Au Pair was with a busy working family with a girl of 8yrs old & a toddler of 2 years old. This was a change to the previous family as both children had very different interests so it was a challenge to keep them both occupied, engaged & happy. This was great to improve my personal skills to work around them both and to incorporate different teaching / learning techniques.

For both families, my duties included preparing breakfast for the children and dropping them off to school in a timely manner. In the evenings, I would collect the children from school, create and organise various games both educational and enjoyable outdoors. Prepare for bath time & dinner as well as completing homework / educational tasks for the evening.

Throughout my time with both families my highlight was to engage with the children on a personal & professional level to see drastic improvement in both their confidence and language skills. I love the challenge of mixing both my native language and the culture / language of the children to create a comfortable and safe space.

I believe I'm a strong, creative individual who has the mindset to adapt to any challenge that is put in front of me. I understand the importance of parents having trust in their nanny / childcare. Being adaptable and creative, I strive to excel in every task in hand.

I'm looking for a kind, friendly family to work alongside to make sure their child / children are happy, safe, educated and having a good time.

I'm open minded, patient and hard-working. I enjoy cycling, yoga, sushi, reading in my spare time.

I look forward to hearing from you and I hope we'll be working together soon.

Thanks for reading!
