About me

I'm Živa, I have a Bachelor's and a Master's degree in Psychology and I have over 7 years of experience of babysitting and working with children in various situations and enviornments. I have experience with babysitting children from the age of 1,5 to 9 years old, both children of friends and families and also non-related familes' children. From 2021 to 2023 I've aslo actively babysat for a child on the Autisum Spectrum Disorder and was as part of a multidisciplinary team focused on developing a therapeutic support plan for his development and monitoring progress. I like to babysit children because I genuenly enjoy spending time with them and get joy from observing and helping them discover the world. I aslo love how hilarious and uninhibited they often are, which can be a real wind of fresh air. From my journey through studying psychology and babysitting children of various ages, I've come to understand the importance of creating an environment where children can thrive. I firmly believe that clear boundaries are essential for a child's development, providing them with a sense of security and structure. However, equally important is the ability to empathize and truly listen to a child's needs. I strive to create a nurturing atmosphere where boundaries are established with empathy and understanding. Another thing that is deeply important to me is creativity. I'm currently studying animated film at the Tv and Film School of Prague and I find great joy in fostering creativity in children, whether it's through imaginative play, storytelling, or engaging in arts and crafts projects. I also really enjoy spending time in nature and love going on walks or playing outside with children I babysit.

If you think that I would be a good match for you family and child, don't hestitate to contact me and I'd be glad to tell you more about myself. :) As I'm still a student I mostly have time over the weekends, and Wednesdays/Fridays afternoon. Looking forward to hearing from you!
