My Summary
About Me
*NOT LOOKING*
Available for babysitting.
I have a little boy who’s 1 years old I am looking for a family who would be comfortable me bringing him with me.
I love caring for children and being a part of their growth and development. Reading to them and helping them learn to read is one of my favorite activities. I also enjoy doing arts and crafts with them, organizing after-dinner discos, and involving them in baking and cooking. Outdoor activities like walks in the woods and playdates are also important to me. I take pride in providing a well-rounded experience for the children I care for. Additionally, I enjoy assisting families with household tasks so that they can fully focus on their children when they come home from work. The variety in my work keeps me motivated and allows me to continuously find new ways to support children and families efficiently.
My Experience
I am a highly experienced and dedicated nanny who has had the pleasure of working with several wonderful families throughout my career. I have a proven track record of long-term commitments with the families I've worked for, providing consistent and reliable care.
My journey as a nanny began with a lovely family of three children, ranging from newborn to 3 years old. Initially, I started as a mother's helper, but when the mother returned to work after 9 months, I took on sole charge of all three children. I cherished this role and had the privilege of nurturing and guiding them, teaching them to read and potty training. Even to this day, I maintain a strong connection with this family.
Following that, I took on a temporary position caring for a baby who was 10 months old and his 3-year-old sister. It was a role I truly loved, but unfortunately, it came to an end when the previous nanny returned from maternity leave. I would cook and do washing for the whole family to make it easier for mum and dad who had very busy work schedules.
During a break from nannying, I assisted my family's catering business creating events and my favourite part was organising the children’s parties, I covered this while my older sister pursued an opportunity at Disney in Florida. However, I soon realized how much I missed working as a nanny and yearned to return to it.
I then took on a part-time position with a family of three school-aged children, which gave me valuable experience in helping with reading and homework. I worked for them until I needed to find full-time employment after no longer assisting my family's business.
My next job was with an amazing family whom I had the privilege of working with for 7 years. I cared for three boys, starting from when the youngest was just 9 months old. Throughout my time with them, I not only provided potty training and educational support but also took on the responsibility of homeschooling all three boys during the COVID-19 pandemic. It was an incredibly rewarding job, and if it weren't for the arrival of my little boy, I would still be with them. However, the demands of their schedule, including late evenings sometimes finishing at 8pm and various sports activities, its making it difficult for me to balance my own family commitments, so I am having to find a new family that will let me and my little boy come along.
When the children I last cared for started school, I filled my mornings by looking after twin girls who were 4 months old. Although it was a part-time role, I wholeheartedly took care of their needs, including cooking, cleaning, preparing bottles, playing, and ensuring their clothes were washed. It was a truly delightful job.
I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have worked with such amazing families throughout my career. Each experience has enriched my skills as a nanny, and I am excited to bring my knowledge and dedication to a new family.
