Hi! My name is Eva and I am a 24 year old working full time and currently a mum to my beautiful girl Olivia who is just over 1. I have grown up my whole life in christchurch! I come from an Irish/Kiwi family! I have 5 years in teaching and 7 years in babysitting. Always looking for one off gigs that could turn into something regular!
2 Years with a family with 2 children on the autism spectrum (6 years and 12 years) 1 year supporting a Pica/Non-verbal autistic child (4 years) 21 years with my brother with ADHD, Dyspraxia and learning/behaviour difficulties
I have been looking after kids from as young as i can remember. To put into perspective i’ve wanted to be a preschool teacher since the age of 3! I’ve been babysitting since 13 (7 years) looking after children 3 month to 13 years. I am currently on my way to getting my teaching degree in ECE. I have got my National Certificate of Early Childhood Education and Care (passed with excellence endorsement) I have 5 years in early childhood centres, covering all ages from 3 months - 5 years.
I have been assisting families with schooling throughout the covid period, this included giving other strategies to help work things out and make work fun! I always struggled with school so finding ways to make it fun helped me, this got me all the way to university and still helps me to this day. I have NCEA 1, 2 and 3 along with University Entrance.
