My Summary
About Me
Ciao! I'm Margherita (yes, just like the pizza!)
With years of experience caring for children, I am a dedicated, reliable, and empathetic caregiver who truly loves what I do.
I pride myself on being warm, understanding, and highly organized, with a flexible and adaptable approach. My excellent communication skills and great sense of humour help me instantly connect with little ones, making each day both fun and enriching. Beyond ensuring their safety and supporting their milestones, I genuinely love being part of their world—nurturing their confidence, kindness, and curiosity as they grow.
I care for every child as if they were my own, ensuring they feel loved, valued, and excited to learn. Whether it’s cooking healthy meals (must be the Italian in me!), getting creative with arts and crafts, exploring the outdoors, singing, dancing, or organizing fun, age-appropriate activities, I always bring enthusiasm and joy into my work.
Before becoming a nanny, I was an Italian teacher, sharing my love of language and culture—something I still do privately from time to time. In my free time, I enjoy theater, cinema, and museums, as well as reading, hiking, traveling, meditation, yoga, and swimming. I also love sewing when I get the chance to unwind at home.
I can provide excellent references upon request and would love the opportunity to chat with you about how I can support your family. Looking forward to hearing from you soon!
My Experience
I’ve had the pleasure of caring for children of all ages—from babies and toddlers to teenagers—and even looking after pets, including dogs, hamsters, and rabbits! I tend to form strong bonds with the families I work with, which is why I’ve chosen to commit long-term rather than moving between many different households.
My Nanny Experience
Oct 2013 – Dec 2013
After-School Nanny
Cared for a 4-year-old boy. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with him, but I was seeking a more consistent role, which led me to move on.
Nov 2013 – July 2014
Sole Charge Full-Time Nanny
Cared for a 12-month-old girl and her 8-year-old brother. I adored this family, and though I haven’t seen them in a while, we’ve remained in touch over the years.
Sept 2014 – July 2021
Part-Time Sole Charge Nanny (Afternoons) – Through Kensington Nannies Agency
Cared for three girls, aged 5, 7, and 9 when I started. Watching them grow into incredible young women has been a joy, and I truly cherish the years I spent with this family.
Nov 2020 – Apr 2021
Part-Time Sole Charge Nanny (Mornings)
Cared for a 2-year-old boy and his 10-month-old sister. We had a wonderful time together, but my role came to an end when the family relocated to Oxford.
Apr 2016 – July 2021
Part-Time Sole Charge Nanny (Mornings)
Started with a 4-month-old girl in 2016, and later cared for her younger sister, born in 2017. This family has been a huge part of my life, and I still consider them family. I’ve been privileged to watch their two energetic, lovely girls grow from infancy into young childhood and I still babysit them regularly. They call me their 'Fairy Godmother'.
Sept 2021 – Present
Currently caring for two brothers, now 5 and 3 years old, Monday to Friday.
I am available for occasional evening and weekend babysitting/nannying.
