Nina

About Me

I am an enthusiastic and active nanny. I am naturally calm, patient and sensitive to children's needs. I am also an early year’s teacher, Relax Kids coach and parent of two grown-up children.

Providing excellent care for children and supporting their development in all areas, is my vocation. I believe that children's emotional well-being and mental health is of primary importance. This is central to my work with them. I am known for having a kind, caring and gentle approach.

I have worked with young children (aged between 6 months and 11 years) since completing my early years teaching degree in 1994, in variety of roles. I have worked as a nanny since March 2020. I am passionate about enabling children to have the fun, stimulating, active, happy and secure childhood that they all deserve.

I enjoy engaging with children, and attending fully to their physical, emotional, and educational needs. I build warm relationships with them and am experienced at promoting positive behaviour, through praise and encouragement, encouraging respect for others and setting consistent boundaries.

As a parent, childcare professional and teacher, I have enjoyed planning and delivering, fun and creative activities for young children according to their interests and abilities. I like to give children opportunities to take part in outdoor activities, in order to encourage physical activity, connection with nature, enjoyment and respect for the natural world.

With my teaching background, I have knowledge of the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum. I am skilled at helping to prepare children for starting school, giving support with reading and promoting a love of books and stories.
