My Summary
About Me
Fully registered Childminder offering Childminder or Nannying services in the local area of W12.
I currently have availability for a part time role/places in either Nannying or Childminding.
I am also open to Nannying sharing, which is what I am currently providing for 2 local families part time.
As every family has different needs, we can talk through exactly what kind of childcare support you are looking for and need then make a plan around what suits your family best.
I’m fun, energetic, active and friendly.
I am a mum to one child, my 12 year old son (who is a loving gentle soul!).
I access local services with in the community which I incorporate in to my daily activities to support children’s development and meet your families needs.
I offer a warm, friendly, reassuring, gentle service to ensure that your child has the quality care that they need and deserve.
This also includes supporting parents through these transitions too, from first hand experience I know how challenging it can be to find and trust a new childcare provider to offer the level of care you want for your little one (or older ones too!)
I have a wealth of knowledge in working with Early Years, first time parents and supporting parents with routines and children’s development as well as working with older children & young people from my Family Support & Extended Day Services experience.
I’m happy to help around the home too (if Nannying is required) - I’m not shy of a washing machine load and cooking is one of my favourite things to do!
My Experience
I have been supporting Families locally for 25 years in various Early Years, Extended School Services and Support Worker roles in the borough so I have a vast knowledge of children’s development, how to help them thrive and support parents too.
I started Nannying and Childminding during the pandemic as I was made redundant from local authority post, I wanted to still give to families and offer support but in a way that suited my own family needs too.
I am also a trained Baby Massage and Positive Parenting Program (Triple P) Facilitator.
I am a big advocate of the outdoors and accessing local groups - nature and movement is an essential part of our day!
My Qualifications
Level 3 NVQ in Caring for Children and Young People, Triple P Trained, Baby Massage and Development, Level 3 Management and Leadership and OFSTED recognised Childminder Training, First Aid.

We're thrilled to recommend Claire as an amazing nanny! She’s been with us for over six months now, and we truly couldn’t imagine our lives without her. She’s full of energy, always positive, and is so wonderful with our one-year-old.
Claire keeps up with our little one’s boundless curiosity and energy, and she’s always coming up with fun, age-appropriate activities that help with development. From games to sensory activities, she just seems to know exactly what our child needs at each stage. She’s also been a huge support to me as a parent, sharing great advice and helpful tips that have made a real difference.
On top of that, Claire is a huge help around the house, always willing to pitch in without even being asked. She’s friendly, thoughtful, and has genuinely become a part of our family. We just adore her, and would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and all-around wonderful nanny! CLAIRE IS THE BEST!

We feel so lucky to have Claire looking after our son in the last couple of months! We are moving from oversea to London recently and Claire has helped us better connect with the children’s play group and all the facilities in the area! We amazed how nicely my son settled with the new environment and start making new friends, with Claire’s great help and support to him! As parents, we appreciate Claire’s clear and transparent communication as well as many many lovely videos that we feel part of our little’s daily development! Thanks you Claire!

Thank you for your shining review Suki!
It’s an absolute pleasure Nannying for your family, my days with H are always full of fun and joy. Me & H have built a lovely relationship, seeing him grow & develop has been so rewarding - I look forward to the next stages of his development and being part of it.
Thank you for your trust and welcoming me in to your family :-)
Claire is an absolutely fantastic babysitter! Claire babysat my six-month old son for the afternoon and I couldn't be more impressed. My son has struggled to accept care from strangers in the past so I was nervous about babysitting, but Claire was so professional and knowledgeable right from the start. As I expected, it took my son a little while to settle and Claire was so warm and patient with him the entire time. By the end of the afternoon, my son was smiling and having fun -- I couldn't believe the improvement! It really made me feel better about having my son in care.

Claire has been nothing short of amazing! As first time parents, we felt incredibly nervous starting the search for childcare for our daughter, she made us feel at ease straight away with her knowledge and approach. Claire is so warm and welcoming, her setting is perfect for our daughter who was very comfortable straight away. Claire provided flexible settling in sessions, she sets out plans for the day, which also include the menus for the home-cooked meals she provides. The day's our daughter spends with Claire are varied, from parks, playgroups and playgrounds, they spend lots of time outdoors and our daughter always comes home content. Claire is honest, and always keeps in touch throughout the days activities with pictures and videos.
We couldn't recommend Claire more!

We have had our daughter at Claire's for 1.5 years (from 1 to 2.5 years old). Settling in was easy; Claire is professional, and the children feel the trust and warmth straight away. We considered nursery earlier but decided to keep her at Claire’s for longer as it was apparent how confident and rounded she became at being with Claire.
