About Me

I'm an American Nanny with 12+ years of childcare experience. I've just finished my Creative Writing M.A. + work in the theatre & the arts as well. I knit, crochet, and bake my own bread, as well as having a studied love of reading and literacy. Most of my extra money goes to seeing live theatre!

My Experience

I've taken care of children 4 mos-17 yrs old, 1-3 children at a time. As a professional nanny in the States, I worked full time for my families, where I was responsible for feeding, entertaining and cleaning the children I took care of. I have cooked for my kids, given then formula, reheated (safely) frozen breastmilk, and helped with the transition to solid food. I have also put kids down for a nap, and am adaptable to all preferred sleep styles- contact naps to setting baby in the crib and letting them sleep away from me. I hoover, mop, do laundry, and keep play spaces tidy, and am happy to do additional housekeeping as long as it does not interfere with my care of the kids! I have also worked with older kids, and love to do imaginative play, outings and other activities (age-appropriate cooking or crafts, etc). I also love to read for and with the kids I take care of. As a babysitter, I am happy to offer respite to parents and the excitement of a new person to kids. I am a passionate and attentive caregiver, and am happy to provide references.

My Fees

  • Babysitting from £12.00 per hour

I typically have a base rate (£12ph) with added £0.50ph for each additional child. I have been working as a nanny and babysitter for 12+ years & want to work with as many parents as possible, while also knowing that when parents pay me, they are paying for my experience.
