About LauraBack to Top

My name is Laura and I am a montessori trained teacher come nanny. I have over 8 years experience teaching and minding children and babies from new borns to children 8 years old. In addition to my Montessori and Early Childhood Education college certificates in [removed] I completed a course on child psychology while working full time. Throughout my years educating and minding children I have become a secure and comforting role in their lives bring laughter and happeness to every day. *Avaliable from July/start of September. Full time work only 40hrs+ ____________________________________________________________________________________ Most recently I had the pleasure to work with with a wonderful family in Dublin looking after their two children and helping to run the household from 8am-6pm Monday to Friday. When I commenced working with the family their first child was only 6 months old and he was 2 1/2 years old when I finished working for the family however I still visit regularly for "play dates" and often have video chats when this is not possible to which he asks "yaya, you coming to play?" Over the two years I became a secure and comforting role in his life bringing laughter and cuddles to every day. In the initial months I helped to teach him to sit, feed himself, crawl, walk and develop his language skills to name a few. During my time minding him I was in charge of preparing breakfast, dressing him for the day, bringing him each morning to various playgroups and baby classes which I found on my own initiative and signed him up to. These included a sensory class, music class, messy play class and a few toddler play groups as well as weekly play dates with a large group of toddlers with whom he became friends with. I also found various once off events which he loved attending such as childrens classical events at the National Concert Hall, drama events at the children's museum in temple bar, music/art/drama classes at the EPIC centre at Custom House Quay. We also often visited Airfield farm, Imaginosity, the Natural History Museum, and the zoo multiple times. After morning activities I would bring him home for lunch and nap time, venturing out to a variety of parks in the afternoon (i.e. Herbert Park, Ranelagh playground, windy Harbour playground, Stephens Green etc.) I cooked all his meals providing health options such as oven baked salmon and roasted veggies, chicken & veg curry from scratch, cottage pie, spinach & ham quiche, chicken a la king, roasted halabut in an Italian sauce etc. Prior to which I prepared purees of a similar nature and assisted with Introducing food for the first time, adjusting consistency as he grew and developed. I was also there to commence and reinforce toilet training from the time he was 20 months old, only starting upon his own initiative when he requested to use the toilet for the first time. During my second year the family welcomed a baby girl to the world. I was there to give extra assistance as much as possible cooking all the meals for kids and parents, collecting items required for the new born, starting early as dad had to get to work early and mom was with the new born, staying late to help with toddler bed times. After a few months I was given the responsibility to also look after their second child. This required juggling two different nap and feeding schedules while keeping both toddler and baby entertained with age appropriate activities. On occasion I stayed on nights or full weekends while the parents were away. In addition I helped to run the house by placing the weekly online supermarket shop, picking up other items from specialty food shops such as butchers and health food shops, collecting and sending post, buying items for the children like baby bottles, messy play clothes, toilet training items. Being home when handymen would arrive, instructing the gardeners or passing on messages to the cleaning lady etc. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Previous to this I worked for a lovely family looking after their three sweet boys whom were 9 months old, 4 years and 7 years old upon commencing my work with them. It was my responsibility to mind the baby in the mornings bringing him to play groups, keeping to a strict nap and feeding schedule while providing stimulating activities in and out of the house. Every afternoon I collected the older boys from school and brought them home for a healthy and freshly cooked warm meal including a meal for the baby. I assisted with homework and bringing the boys to various weekly afternoon activities such as swimming and football. To keep the boys stimulated and to assist in their development I regularly provided fun arts and science activities, brought the boys to various playgrounds every afternoon, organised play dates, weekly trips to the local library and during midterm I brought the boys into town to visit children's museums. Throughout the year I further helped with teething, illnesses and maintaining good behaviour. On occasion I stayed overnight with the boys including one time where I spent 3 nights and days providing sole care over the weekend getting them ready and bringing them to school on the Monday while the parents were away. Overall I was there to keep the boys happy and safe. I still keep in good contact with the family and meet the boys from time to time. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Previous to this I minded two boys aged 1 year and 3 years old upon commencing. My role in the family was quite similar to my last job in which I was there to provide a loving and caring environment in which the boys where able to prosper and develop as young children should. My aim every day was to give the boys my best and through that ensure that they stayed happy and safe whilst in my care. I spent over one year minding the boys but sadly it was when the youngest boy started attending a Montessori school that I had to leave the family. ____________________________________________________________________________________ I have also worked at a Montessori school where I was in charge of the 2.5 year old to 4 year old classroom as well as helping at times with the younger children in the school. My biggest goal in the classroom was to make sure that every child received the equal amount of attention and care to make them feel special each and every day. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Other then that I worked for one year in Uganda as a personal assistant to a young boy at the International School of Kampala. The young boy had some behaviour issues that required extra attention and It was during this time that I became very close with the boy learning to become his friend and mentor. This allowed him to build a level of trust with me, so that together, we could overcome any obstacles that may have arisen throughout our time together.
