My Summary
About Me
Hi Mums and Dads :)
I’m a nurturing and creative Nanny with 6 years experience caring for new borns through to teenage years.
I am relocating to London from Bristol so sadly leaving my amazing family and two lovely kids (16 months & 3 years). Ideally I am looking for 30 hours a week but can be flexible.
I love cooking healthy meals and have a holistic approach to child care, (in line with Steiner principles). I am nurturing, warm, energetic and love inspiring kids creatively by doing lots of fun activities in nature and and at home. I have experience leading holiday arts and crafts workshops and can also teach your little ones piano and guitar as part of the package. I am ideally looking for 2 full days a week but I can be flexible for the right family. I have great references and can put you in touch with all the families I have worked for! Would love to meet you for a coffee and a chat/face timeif this stands out to you. Thanks x

Jess is the best!
Jess is an incredibly caring and nurturing nanny and has a very close relationship with both my daughter (3.5) and son (1.5) (who both absolutely love her). She is very creative (she is a talented artist and musician) and does lots of painting and crafts and music. She is also brilliant at cooking healthy delicious food for us and - and does lots of baking with the children. She keeps our house very clean and tidy. She is also lots of fun! And always calm.
She is a joy to be with - she is a very kind, honest and hardworking person and has been very flexible over the years - swapping days and times and doing extra or less work to accommodate our needs. During the pandemic lock downs 1 abs 2 she was living with us and she certainly saved our sanity!
Jess has become a very important member of our family and I have no idea what we do without her! I feel very lucky to have found Jess (friends with young children always ask me how I found her) and can’t recommend her more.
