My Experience

Full time, live-in SEN nanny
JANUARY 2023 - PRESENT, PUTNEY & SAUDI ARABIA
I have been working for the lovely Smith family since January of 2023, when I joined them they had an 18 month old boy and were due their second. They now have three children aged three, two and a newborn. Due to the children’s father working abroad for large portions of my employment, I have been heavily involved in helping to raise the children alongside their mother. The eldest son was diagnosed with a rare genetic condition and autism in October 2023, and I have been present in much of his diagnostic assessments and therapies since. Working with the eldest child has been an incredible journey for me. I have found being so involved in his therapies and then working so closely with him to reach delayed milestones such as walking and talking to be very special and rewarding. Equally I have been heavily relied upon to care for his younger brother from a newborn, which has involved implementing feeding, sleeping and play routines into his day to ensure he is happy and well stimulated. In January of 2024, I relocated with the family to a remote construction camp in Saudi Arabia. I have also travelled extensively with the role including Jordan, Dubai, Australia and France.


Full time, live-out nanny
MAY 2022 - August 2022, BRIGHTON
I worked as a nanny for two children, aged 3 years and 15 months, where I was the sole carer for the children whilst the parents were working. Our days typically involved an organised activity in the morning such as a music class, swimming or a play group, followed by an engaging and educational activity for the older child after lunch whilst the younger sibling naps. The afternoons were then filled by an active outdoor activity or sport. Within this role, I was responsible for ensuring the children are cooked nutritious meals and have a well-balanced diet whilst also encouraging their physical and mental development in line with projected milestones. Caring for two young children simultaneously takes high levels of organisation, time-management and Initiative.

During this time I worked with two separate families and 5 children in total, regularly being the sole carer for 3 children at any one time. My responsibilities when working with the families included school pick ups and drop offs, homework help and bedtimes. Two of the children I worked with were newborns when I first met them and aged to toddlers over my time with them, allowing me to gain valuable experience in the newborn months, baby milestones, weaning and potty training.
