Olivia D.

I’m originally from the UK and my professional background is in Social Work. I have a degree in Social Work and have worked in both Child Protection and Youth Offending, so I have lots of experience working with children, young people and families. Before this, I worked in a children’s nursery, where I cared for little ones from babies through to preschool age.

I’ve always loved working with children and I really enjoy the different things that come with different ages. I love caring for little ones, getting involved in play and activities and seeing their personalities develop, but I also really enjoy working with teenagers. My experience in Youth Offending has given me lots of experience communicating with teenagers and supporting them to become more independent.

I’m very patient, caring and responsible, but I also like to have fun and get involved. I’m happy getting stuck into whatever the children enjoy, whether that’s playing, going to the park, doing activities, helping with homework or getting ready for bed. I’m also very organised and used to managing busy routines, so I’m happy to help make family life that little bit easier.

Ultimately, I want the children to feel comfortable and have a really nice time while they’re with me, and for parents to feel completely happy knowing their children are in safe.

I have a clear DBS check in the UK due to my line of work. I have previously completed children’s first aid courses.
