Dear Family
Hi! My name is Hannah and I’m a 23 year-old Irish musician. I love working with children. I have lots of experience working with babies and kids of all ages, but am looking to mind children aged 2 - 3 and older at the moment :) I have done lots of childminding and have been chosen to work on several children’s camps, both in Ireland and abroad in Italy for three summers. I speak conversational French, I love learning French and have just spent time in France to practice French. I am fluent in English. I am learning Italian and Spanish. I am currently studying for my internationally recognised 120 hour TEFL (Teaching English As A Foreign Language) certificate so I am almost TEFL qualified. I have 120 hours of in person TEFL experience teaching Polish adults English in Poland. I love being creative and doing arts and crafts with children, getting outside in nature when the weather’s nice, and going for walks or playing in the garden. I enjoy helping children learn new things, either through doing their homework with them, reading together, or playing fun, educational games. I am more than happy to provide several excellent references and a copy of my CV. Send me a message if you’re interested in having me mind your children, I’d love to chat more! :)
My Favourite Memory
My favourite memory from working with children is from when I was on a nature walk with a little boy I was minding, and we happened to find a fairy house (see picture!). The little boy noticed that there was writing on the fairy house - it was a message from the tooth fairy! We were so excited. I also love any sort of Christmas fun with children. I have worked as an elf at Santa’s grottos for many years now, and have always really enjoyed it, as I am very energetic, and I love the imagination that children have
My Experience
I worked with a children’s art company called Me & The Moon from 2018 - 2020. We ran children’s art camps and parties. I was chosen to work on a children’s summer camp in Italy as a tutor, teaching Italian children English and Music in 2022, 2023, and 2024. I worked as one of Santa’s elves at Killruddery House and Gardens, Bray’s Christmas experience 2018 and 2019, and as one of Santa’s elves at Santa’s Grotto in Coffee Delights Bray in 2021. I really loved the Santa’s Grotto elf jobs! I have also done lots of private childcare jobs at parents’ homes. I am very happy to provide references for childminding I have done, as well as petsitting and housesitting. I am an experienced house sitter and pet sitter both in Ireland and abroad, so I’m more than happy to help with any pets you might have too, or housework. I love animals, especially cats.
My Education
I did well in my Leaving Cert exams when I graduated school in 2018, obtaining 517 points. In 2021 graduated BIFE (The Bray Institute of Further Education) with a Merit in the Level 6 Music Performance college course that I studied. I really enjoyed the course. I have since been working- performing music, teaching guitar and vocals to both adults and children, and childminding. I would love to go to university for a full degree one day. The courses that interest me are English, French, History, Journalism, music-related courses, and Psychology. I am really interested in neuroscience and psychology, especially child psychology!
My Family
My sister is 20 and loves reading and going to the gym. My sister and I have always been very close. My brother is only seven, and loves husky dogs! I’m 23, so I’m the eldest. My sister and I love spending time with our little brother. I love teaching him things, painting with him, and playing dress-up. I recently helped turn him into a vampire!
My Motivation
I would love to do more childminding as I find it very rewarding. I love having a positive influence on the lives of children. I think I have a really good way with children. I love how mindful childminding can be, children always put me in a good mood!
My Interests
I love music - I play guitar and I sing. I’m always learning new songs to play busking or at bar gigs. I love writing, whether it’s poems, songs or diary entries. I love travelling. I love walks and being in nature, as well as reading, yoga, meditation, and positive psychology. I love being at the beach. I have done both line dance and jive dance classes in my spare time in Dublin. I love to dance. I love languages - as well as English I can speak French and a bit of Spanish, and am also learning Italian. I used to study Chinese after school.
