About Me

Hi, my name is Emma and I am an experienced and qualified childcarer having worked in various settings as a nanny, nursery nurse and playgroup facilitator. I am also a qualified dance teacher with 14 years of teaching experience.

I have recently been undertaking childcare for a lovely family in Gloucetershire who have a 2 year old and a 4 year old.

I have now relocated from Gloucestershire to Dorset and whilst I currently hold a non-childcare role during daytime hours, I am looking for roles in the dorset area that are full or part time childcare now that we have settled in this beautiful part of the country.

Previous roles include:
5 years as a practitioner at a pre-school in Gloucester.

Nanny to a family who have 5 children (3 of which are under my care). I have the pleasure of looking after the 1 year old twins and their 2 year old sister.

Baby room practitioner at The Old Station Nursery in Churchdown and during my time there I completed my level 3 qualification in childcare.

Nanny to a family in Cheltenham looking after their little boy who was 18 months through to 2 and a half years old. In addition to working with them at their home, i went abroad with them to look after their son while they were in their holiday villa.

14 years of teaching in a private dance school and delivering additional workshops with the everyman theatre, gloscollege, government funded programmes for after school dance classes for under-privilaged children.
I am a fully qualified dance teacher with the BBO (British Ballet Organisation) although not currently teaching due to an injury.

I am a very loving, family orientated person that puts high priority on children's mental health and happiness in addition to ensuring they experience a variety if activities and learning opportunities. (Ie. Tv is limited and day trips or being out in the great outdoors are the norm).

I love working with children and am happy to take the role of housekeeper whilst children are at school/nursery/in bed etc.

I hold an enhanced DBS check which can be checked on the online platform, and have a full clean driving license. I hold past safeguarding certificates and paediatric first aid certificates although these are due for renewal.
