My Summary
About Me
About Me
Hi, I’m Sophia, a 25-year-old currently working as an Administrator at a private fashion university in central London. While I’m training to become a Casting Director, I’m excited to transition into nannying, a role that aligns with my lifelong passion for working with children.
As the eldest sibling and cousin in my family, I naturally became the go-to person for looking after younger family members, a responsibility I embraced with enthusiasm. During my teenage years, I extended this experience by babysitting for family friends and joining a babysitting agency while still in school. My love for nurturing and engaging with children has only grown over time.
Education and Professional Background
I hold a degree in English Literature from the University of Birmingham, so I’m well-equipped to assist with English homework or encourage a love of reading and storytelling. My professional journey has included diverse administrative roles at organizations like the England and Wales Cricket Board, MetFilm School in London, and a language school in Lisbon called EasyTalk. These roles honed my organizational skills, adaptability, and ability to manage varied responsibilities—all qualities I bring to my work as a nanny.
Why I Love Working with Kids
Children bring immense joy and energy to my life. Their honesty, creativity, and curiosity inspire me daily. I take pride in fostering an environment where they feel safe, valued, and free to express themselves. As a nanny, I’m not just a caregiver but also a mentor and friend, dedicated to instilling values like kindness, empathy, and responsibility.
Every moment spent with a child is an opportunity to support their growth, encourage their imagination, and share in their triumphs, big and small. For me, being a nanny is more than a job—it’s a deeply fulfilling way to make a positive difference in a child’s life.
My Experience
Experience with Children
Throughout my life, I’ve been privileged to care for children in many capacities. Beyond babysitting for family and friends, I spent two months as an au pair in Spain, where I supported a young boy in learning English through creative and engaging activities. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how to create a nurturing, stimulating, and fun environment that fosters a child’s growth and development.
Whether it’s playing board games, crafting, baking, or embarking on outdoor adventures, I thrive on creating meaningful moments with children. I love organizing activities like museum visits, nature walks, and creative projects that encourage curiosity and exploration.
