My Summary
About Me
Over 20 years experience, DBS, Paediatric First Aid and excellent references.
My name is Zoe, I am reliable, dedicated, compassionate, a good cook, and enjoy my job. I love to be busy at home or out and about doing lots of activities or groups with the children.
Always some crafty project on the go, or a 'big cook, little cook' session baking or preparing tea, reading, singing songs or getting our wellies on for a muddy walk, forest school or farm visit. I hope to provide opportunities for fun and friendship and social interaction meeting with other local parents/nannies with children of similar ages.
My aim is to provide care for your children with patience, fun and guidance to ensure happy, well balanced, contented children.
My Experience
I have cared for children from birth to teenagers. I have been lucky enough to work with some lovely families and great children.
I not only have nanny experience but I am a mum too so can now see things from the other side. I know just how tough being a parent can be at times but how your children are THE most important thing in your life. Therefore finding the right person to care for them is ESSENTIAL.
My Qualifications
I studied at Ware college after leaving school with all GCSEs. I received a distinction in BTEC childhood studies, (an equivalent to the NNEB but an advanced course). Also completed a year’s teaching degree.
I have been on vast amounts of courses in recent years including;
Children’s Behaviour, Feelings & Emotions
Children’s Anger Management Support & Strategies
Girl’s Development & Learning

I can’t recommend Zoe highly enough. She was with us for 1 year and always had a plan for the day to keep the kids entertained, they loved their time with her. Reliable and hardworking, you can’t go wrong hiring Zoe as your nanny.

Zoe has been looking after my son for the last 6 months, 1 day a week and I can't sing her praises enough.
She has a calm and nurturing manner and my son has built a lovely bond with her and her children.
We love her creativity and the indoor and outdoor activities she always has lined up. He has so much fun and never wants to come home when I pick him up! Highly recommend MsPoppins.

We had Zoe as our nanny for 2 years caring for our 4 children who ranged in age between 2- 9 years old. She very quickly built up a trusting, caring relationship with them all and slipped effortlessly into our family life, 2 days a week. She ensured our youngest had fun and active social experiences in local groups, trips around the local area and at home thought of original activities to engage him in while his siblings were at school. Zoe had her youngest child with her and this worked extremely well as a playmate through the day, for our youngest too. Once all children were home, they happily took part in craft or cooking activities with Zoe too.
Zoe is a fantastic cook and planned and prepared meals for the family on the days she worked for us. She is exceptionally reliable and tremendously thoughtful of the children she has in her care, ensuring their likes and interests are pursued. We couldn’t recommend Zoe highly enough and any family that employs her as a nanny is extremely lucky to have her!

We employed Zoe a few years ago to look after our 3 children 3 days a week. They were 9 months, 2 and 6 when she started with us. Zoe was an instant hit, with us all. She is creative, a good cook, firm when needed, fun, took them on adventures, did the nursery run, the school run and was always kind and loving. She respected our values and we trusted her in our home and with our kids. I guess it’s a testament to the relationship that Zoe built with us that we are still in contact now. I honestly can’t recommend Zoe highly enough - she’s an excellent nanny.

Overall
Zoe has looked after my two boys ages 4 & nearly 2, every Thursday since September. Unfortunately due to my childcare needs unexpectedly changing from Christmas, Zoe will no longer be working with us. Zoe put us at ease straight away; the boys warmed to her immediately and I was so relieved to find someone as lovely as Zoe- especially as it was the first time they had ever been left with someone other than family. Zoe’s very calm and positive with the children and engages with them as soon as she arrives. Zoe is very creative and the boys enjoy doing arty things every week. She takes my youngest son and her own daughter to a playgroup every week and it is lovely to be sent the smiley photos when I’m at work. Zoe is super organised, flexible with school runs, great at cooking different meals for my fussy eaters and just gets on with everything! I’d highly recommend her and we’re sad to have to say goodbye.
