Heya guys,

My name is Rachael and I am 17 years old. I have left high school and now study at NZMA studying level 4 Early childhood. I currently work 3 days a week but I am looking either causal night babysitting jobs after 6:30pm or a regular job on Mondays and Wednesday’s. I have a current … View more
Heya guys,

My name is Rachael and I am 17 years old. I have left high school and now study at NZMA studying level 4 Early childhood. I currently work 3 days a week but I am looking either causal night babysitting jobs after 6:30pm or a regular job on Mondays and Wednesday’s. I have a current first aid certificate for children and babies however I don’t have a licence. I only have learners. I would describe myself as very reliable, outgoing, not afraid to get messy and honest. My current employers pay me $22.68 but I’m happy to negotiate within reason. I finish course at 1 so I will be available from around about 2pm - 2.30 depending on location till maybe like 9pm unless it’s Friday or Saturday night which can be midnight latest. I have heaps of experience with kids ranging from the ages of 18 months to about 11 years old. I can also provide references if needed 😊

Some things about me…

I am great at following routines. I have also done respite care for 2 years and have worked with kids with severe asthma and epilepsy. I love arts and crafts, long/short walks, reading, playing at playgrounds and music. I have completed NCEA level 1, NCEA level 2 and have started Level 4 ECE certificate so I can also help with homework and I am almost fluent in Te Reo Māori.

P.s I can sew and make patchwork quilts for charity so I could even teach someone of appropriate age.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Thanks Rachael

Same question as last time - were are we?
This spot in the capital city has changed a wee bit since the photo was taken.
