Chelsea, canguro en San fernando de henares

Hi! My name is Chelsea and I am from New Zealand but have just moved to Madrid with my husband who is from here. I have a Netherlands passport so do not need a visa to work in Spain.
I am looking to find part time babysitting work or helping children with English. I don't speak Spanish yet but I am starting to learn.

In 2013 I completed the New Zealand Certificate in Nanny Education L5 which has given me training for working with children from new born to school age. Throughout this course I have completed 400 hours of practical experience including an infant placement (6 month old twins), toddler placement, special support needs and a rural live in placement. I have also spent a lot of time caring for young family members and working as a babysitter for the local community.

Beginning in May 2011, I spent a year working as an au pair in England caring for 4 wonderful children where I would often have sole charge of the house and kids for a week at a time. I have since been back to work for this family for various emergencies. My favourite things that we did together were baking, going to local parks, playing in the garden and having 'Jedi training' every Friday afternoon (they loved Star Wars).

I'm looking forward to meeting some families to create positive relationships and to learn more about Spanish culture.
