My Summary
About Me
I am an ex childminder of 4/5years and 1:1 TA working with SEND children.
I am looking for a nanny role from September 2025
I encourage hands on learning and recently have hatched our own chicks, caterpillars, looked at all about me baskets learning where items of clothing go. Enjoyed sea life week, insects etc
I understand that every child learns differently and at their own pace and can accommodate this both within the EYFS.
I love the outdoors, going for walks, drawing in the mud with sticks. I very much believe in learning through play and being child led is certainly the way, however also have an understand on the EYFS framework.
You’ll find me singing nursery rhymes all the time and making up random songs to make everything fun, stories and story sacs are a favourite.
I enjoy going out to groups, libraries, meeting Nannie’s and childminder to ensure social interaction for the children.
My Experience
I have been in childcare for 15 years and have worked with a wide range of children ranging from birth to 17.
I have worked in nurseries around Swindon and I have worked at PGL too where I specialised in Special Education groups.
I have alot of SEND experience and am always keen to learn more and frequently undertake personal development courses and reading material. I have experience with autism, adhd, attachment disorders, Aspergers etc. I am currently using BSL within the setting. I understand the needs and how to meet these needs emotionally and physically through sensory play.
I have worked in the maternity units at our local hospital and helped families initiate breastfeeding within this role. I work alongside and encourage the baby friendly initiative.
I am currently undertaking a Hygge in the early years accreditation.
