Private Nanny 01/2020 to 03/2024
Private Family
I started working for a family which I have met while working at the nursery. At the beginning of my employment I was taking care of 2 year old girl in a nanny share. For two days a week I also had another 2 year old girl who were family friends of my main family.
My duties were;
Scheduling day activities for both girls, mainly outdoors
Preparing nutritious meals with special dietary requirements in mind
Keeping environment clean in toy areas and kitchen
Managing expectations of working parents in both houses. I was working in both households on certain days.
Transporting kids safely by car to some activities. I used my own car and I am skilled driver.
I helped both families to manage kids expectations of having dummy. First they completely stopped using it during the day activities with me.
I cooperated with parents on potty training plan.
In the evening I stayed longer or added some babysitting to accommodate parent’s evening plans.
In November 2020 I started my maternity leave with my daughter who is now 3 years old. The main family I was working for had a second child at the same time.

Upon my return to work in September 2021 I was working only for one family, taking care of 10 months old baby boy, 3 year old girl and my 9 months old daughter. 3 years old girl attended nursery in school term time for 3 hours a day. My duties were similar as above and on top of that I was responsible for:
Nursery Pick up and drop off
Baby swimming classes with both babies
Educational activities with 3 years old girl to prepare her for school
I have agreed with the family I was working for that I will attend work every day, even if my child or their child were unwell. I am able to provide contact to a family and also please find reference letter attached.
