1 Share of the babysitter role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the legal guardian profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.

Why

Why this move works

A babysitter role treats 4 of its required skills as things a legal guardian already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • assist children with homework
  • attend to children's basic physical needs
  • maintain relations with children's parents
  • play with children

What stands in the way is 6 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 10 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A babysitter role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a legal guardian background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held assist children with homework assisting and caring
  • already held play with children assisting and caring
  • already held attend to children's basic physical needs assisting and caring
  • already held assist children in developing personal skills assisting and caring
  • already held handle children's problems assisting and caring
  • already held disability care health and welfare

All 10 carried skills, including the 4 the babysitter role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

5 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

Knowledge gaps usually close through study. Practical skill gaps usually need something you can point at.

Note

How this record was compiled

Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
