Hello,
I'm a 28 yo female, childminder with experience.
I'm currently studying Social Services (first year) at Laurea UAS, Otaniemi. In addition to my school, I'd really need a part-time job (in the field!),starting with January, that would mainly engage me for afternoons/evenings and/or (starting Friday-) weekends. (...in Espoo, Vantaa, Helsinki, Kauniainen)
I'd prefer working with children from 6 months up to 2-3 years because that's the age group i've been spending the most time with. My last employer was a Finnish family that has a toddler boy (1,8 yo) and a baby-girl (5 months old). Unfortunately, our contract was a limited one, so again I'm out-there looking for work.
As a parenthesis: I'm, of course, more than willing to spend time with bigger children also, I'm sure it's very entertaining, as long as we can communicate by having a mutual language (English for example). I've been taking care of children around 5 yo that only spoke Finnish and I came to the conclusion that communication with them is really crucial for you need them intellectually and emotionally involved into your activities/conversation which cannot really happen without talking..
I noticed they're very interested in things and learning about life/world and I'd really would like to be able to answer their questions and explain them my views on what surrounds us.
Before my experience in the above mentioned family, I worked as an au-pair and had to, also, mind other two toddler girls.
About the language skills:
I'm fluent in English (although it's not my native language) and I also have a basic command of Finnish as I understand what children are trying to communicate/their needs, as well as I can have simple sentence-communication with them if I'm required to use Finnish.
Looking forward to hear from you, so I could get back to you with a full work application plus picture.
Thanks,
Oriana.
