My Summary

My Experience

- I have been a part time nanny/after school nanny/mother’s help to many families over the past 9 years, with children aged from 9 months to 12 years.
- Typical activities I do include trips out to soft play, stay and play groups, singing and dancing sessions, the library, swimming, parks, farms, museums. Also fun activities in the house such as drawing, painting, arts and crafts, imaginary play, building dens, reading stories.
- Experience with the other bits that need doing too - dressing children, changing nappies, putting them down for naps, meal times, bath and bedtime routines, etc.
- Educating children. Depending on age I’ve had experience beginning to teach words, colours, numbers, shapes, etc (1 year old), helping with homework (school age), and even trying to learn French together (3 year old)!

- I have once been a ‘travel nanny’, accompanying a family with a 3 year old on their skiing holiday.

- I have been an ‘overnight nanny’ on a few occasions - having sole responsibility for two children for a long weekend while parents are away on holiday.

Other childcare experience:
- For 3 years I worked at a tutoring centre/after school club providing tuition and childcare to groups of primary school children.
- One-to-one maths tuition for secondary school age students.
- Have experience teaching children with learning difficulties and Autism.
- Voluntary Year 1 classroom assistant (one afternoon a week for 2 years).
- I took part in a ‘Number Partners’ scheme - playing maths games with small groups of primary school children (Years 2-5) one lunchtime a week to build up their confidence and encourage them to enjoy learning maths.
