About me

I graduated with a B.A. in English Writing and a TEFL certification. After graduating, I began teaching English to many levels, and I quickly learned that I enjoy working with children the most. I offer reliable, compassionate care and guidance, and I am able to easily adapt to the child's needs.

I started babysitting when I was 15 years old, and in university, I was a nanny for my professor's 10 month old daughter for 3 years. In addition, I have also worked for many years helping kids learn English face-to-face and online. I also was a preschool teacher for 2 years in the US where I worked in the 4 year classroom and the infant classroom. Regarding toddlers, I learned how to help them develop their creativity, how to write their ABCs, how to express their emotions, etc. Regarding infants, I learned how to adapt to their feeding schedules, change diapers in an effective way, create a space for them to develop fine motor skills, and much more. All of these require patience, and I am fully able to provide a great level of care for each child.

I believe that children should be treated with respect and should be valued more in our society. Children are very comfortable around me due to my kindness and warmth, and I look forward to hearing to meeting you and your child soon. Thank you for your consideration :)

Skills and activities
Singing/playing musical instrument
Dance/physical activity
I am not an expert, but I enjoy singing and dancing with kids to keep them engaged. I played the clarinet for 15+ years, but I do not have a physical instrument at the moment. I believe that music is a great way to help children unwind and develop language skills, motor skills, etc.

“Lenka is such a sunny person. She babysitted our two kids: a 5-month old and a 2 year old. She stayed with them in the evenings only, while they were sleeping so there wasn't much interaction but she is so lovely, we felt safe and secured the entire time. She babysitted 3 evenings in a row. If we come back to Prague, we will definitely contact her again. Thank you very much, Lenka! Wishing you all the best!”
