About Me

**About Me** Hello lovely families! My name is Carina, and I have the privilege of being a dedicated childminder for a family in Rathmines (references available) where I mind a 21months baby girl. My journey in childminding began when I started babysitting for my younger cousins and soon realized the joy I found in supporting a child's growth and development. **My Philosophy:** Childhood is a brief, magical time, and I believe in making every moment count. My role as a childminder/nanny is not just about supervision but about fostering a loving, enriching, and educational environment. I am deeply committed to helping children discover their passions, bolster their strengths, and approach challenges with confidence. **Qualifications:** - Pediatric First Aid and CPR **What A Day with Me Looks Like:** My approach is child-centered, meaning our days are shaped by the unique interests and energy of the child I'm caring for. We might spend mornings at the park, afternoons crafting, or even have impromptu dance sessions before bedtime. Plus, I place a strong emphasis on educational activities, ensuring that learning and play go hand-in-hand. **Safety First:** Your child's well-being is my number one priority. I am vigilant about safety precautions, and I pride myself on my ability to anticipate and navigate challenges calmly and effectively. **Building Strong Bonds:** Becoming a trusted figure in a child's life is a profound honor. I work diligently to foster a strong bond not just with the children I care for, but also with their families. I believe in open communication, and you can count on me for regular updates, photos, and anecdotes about our adventures together. **Why Choose Me?** - A track record of reliability and dedication. - Genuine love and passion for what I do. - Ability to adapt and cater to a child's evolving needs. - Nutritious meal preparations and adherence to dietary requirements. - Flexible scheduling to fit family needs. Choosing the right childminder/nanny is a significant decision, and I deeply respect the trust families place in me. I invite you to reach out, ask questions, or even arrange a meet-and-greet. Let's explore how I can be a positive, loving influence in your child's life. Warmest wishes, Carina Rodrigues

My Experience

First Aid Experience

In my previous job as a Cabin Crew Supervisor, I was trained extensively in first aid, ensuring the safety and well-being of all passengers on board. This training was comprehensive, covering adults, infants, and children alike. With various scenarios that might arise at 30,000 feet, I was equipped to handle medical emergencies swiftly and effectively. This experience has provided me with a unique set of skills and a deep understanding of first aid procedures for individuals of all ages.

Experience with Children Under 2 Years

As a childminder, I've had the privilege of working closely with children up to the age of two. This critical phase of infancy and toddlerhood requires patience and dedication to foster a safe and nurturing environment. My approach emphasizes individualized care, recognizing that each child is unique and grows at their own pace. I'm well-versed in activities that stimulate cognitive and physical development, I prioritize emotional well-being, ensuring that the children under my care feel secure, loved, and understood. I am vigilant about health and safety, always ensuring that the environment is childproofed and risks are minimized. My experience has also taught me the importance of routine, providing a sense of predictability and comfort to the young ones. In short, my experience as a childminder for children up to two years old has been both deeply rewarding and informative, shaping my approach to attentive, and loving childcare.
