My Summary
About Me
Hi, thank you for taking the time to read through my profile :) Here’s a bit about me.
I am a caring, dependable, and hardworking Nanny with excellent childcare skills.
I simply love caring for children and I am passionate about helping children explore their own natural interests to allow them freedom to become the creative, inquisitive and confident child they’re destined to be.
I see nannying as a very rewarding job.
In recent years I’ve become very passionate about a more holistic approach to childcare in both Play and Health/lifestyle as I believe its very important to offer the tools to create the most authentic, pure and happy life for our little ones.
My husband and I live in Stevenage with our 4 year old daughter and our fur baby beagle.
I enjoy being present in the moment spending quality time with family, walks in nature, yoga, Pilates, reading and photography...not to mention a good holiday.
My Experience
I studied childcare straight after leaving school and I am qualified in level 1,2 and 3. I then went onto working full time in a daycare nursery with children aged 6weeks- 5 years, I worked in the nursery for 3 years before I started working for my first family in 2012 with two children aged 9 months and 3 years when I started with the family.
My second family I started working for in June 2018 three days a week until they moved to Kent in July 2019.
I then worked for another lovely family with two school age children in St Ippolyts from August 2019 until my maternity leave started in February 2020.
From January 2021 to August 2022 I cared for two children 3 days a week in Stevenage until the youngest started school.
I’m currently working for a family in Walkern caring for 3 children ages 5, 3 and 6 months at present alongside my own 4 year old daughter.
I have also had experience in after school clubs, school lunch time supervisor and pre school.
