Janka D.

I graduated this year from the Hungarian University of Fine Arts with a degree in Set and Puppet Design.
During my studies, I worked as an art educator at the Kunsthalle (Műcsarnok) in Budapest, leading creative workshops for primary school children as well as groups of children from disadvantaged backgrounds.
I have been looking after younger children since high school. At the age of 18, I spent a month in France caring for three children (aged 4, 8, and 12). Last summer, I returned to the same family to help care for their fourth child, an 8-month-old baby.
Over the past two years, I have also occasionally worked with an Italian-Hungarian bilingual family, looking after children aged 9 and 13.
I love spending time with children in creative and engaging ways. We often go to the playground, draw, paint, make crafts, play football, badminton, and board games, read stories, invent our own tales, put on little performances, or make music together. I always try to come up with new creative activities that encourage imagination and curiosity.
I am also happy to help children with their schoolwork and can communicate with them in English, French or Italian if desired. I am comfortable preparing meals and handling bedtime routines as well.
