Esther
Hi, I'm Esther, a year 13 student at Glendowie College. Throughout the past 2 years I've been working in hospitality, and have picked up a lot of skills. But now I'm looking for something a bit different. I have done quite a bit of babysitting in the past and I love to work with kids. It always puts a smile on my face when I get to play games with my little cousins, even if it means a bit of cleaning up. I'm an independent and confident person, and despite being 17 (nearly 18) I've picked up on a lot of knowledge about life. Through work and life in general, I have held significant responsibilities which have taught me that I am capable of being a great leader. I'm keen to explore the possibilities that the world has waiting for me, and babysitting is an amazing way to start.

Why I love working with kids
I find that kids have a joy and a spark that most grown ups don't. When I work with kids I can see the life that they have and the amazing potential for them in the future. I also think kids are often pretty hilarious, and being a silly person myself I really appreciate this. Whether it's playing a card game, colouring or just talking I enjoy learning about their small worlds, and having fun with them. Even when they leave a mess or aren't in the best mood, I can handle it. After all, I've got a bit of kid in me as well!
