My Summary
About Me
Hi families, I'm a compassionate, reliable person who is great with kids and loves to restore order to a home.
With a list of odd jobs to to I will happily support you in making your home a calm and functional place to be by dealing with washing, tidying and general cleaning.
I like to cook simple healthy meals and though I personally eat most vegan and gluten free I am happy to prepare food suitable for your family's diet.
I am a trained actor and drama teacher (ie. expert storyteller and imaginative play buddy), ocean swimmer (and ex swimming teacher!) and I love a park walk, cycle or library visit or crafternoon.
I'm a calm presence, I believe in creating safe and encouraging environments for exploration and curiosity. I value the balance of rest, fuel and play, of times for concentration and times to let loose, so I try to offer enough of the safe and familiar with some adventure and imagination thrown in.
My Experience
16 years on and off babysitting, housekeeping/cleaning, child minding, nannying work and community care.
I grew up caring for my little brother who is 12 years younger than me, this gave me an excellent grounding in caring for newborns and toddlers which has allowed me to help families in the first stages of parenthood as a babysitter and nanny throughout my teens and twenties.
I have worked as a babysitter/nanny (for kids aged 2 months - 12 years), and as a swimming teacher and drama teacher for kids as young as 2!
The last family I nannied for had two little girls ages 2 and 4 when I began and I was with them 1 day a week 10-4.
I am a person with good practical sense, empathy and a lot of domestic know-how. Ihave my DBS and a full Australian driver's license which allows me to drive in the UK for at least a year in case that's useful for school pickups etc. (I am yet to see if it is worth me getting a UK license as I am not planning to own a car while living in the UK.)
My Qualifications
Bachelor of Dramatic Art (Acting)
4 years teaching drama to children at the NIDA Open (National Institute of Dramatic Art, Sydney, Australia)
Bronze Medallion Swimming teacher - lapsed in my teens! But I am more than capable of pool play and some skills if we go for a swim :)
I also speak French, (not completely fluent but competent).
My Availability
I have a coupled of gaps left in the week, just let me know what you're looking for and I'll see if I will be able to make it work. I'm based on the edge of Greenwich, but right where it meets Lewisham, Deptford and Blackheath.
