About Me

I am a highly reliable and friendly individual who loves children. With a positive attitude and an approachable nature, I dedicate my time to nurturing children's character and skills, not just supervising them during play. My experiences with children have been fantastic, and I easily bond close, loving relationships through talking, playing, and engaging in creative activities.

As a kind, active, sporty, yet calm and organized babysitter, art teacher, and professional artist from Hungary, I bring a wealth of experience and passion to my work. I am currently studying art therapy online, which provides me with additional tools to engage with children. I love outdoor activities, sports, walks in parks, arts and crafts, various games, and reading. I prioritize good health, including nutritious meals, ensuring we always have a great time and lots of fun while exploring the world playfully.

I have over five years of experience caring for children aged 6 months to 7 years, including boys and girls of ages 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. I am seeking a live-in nanny position for a long-term commitment of ideally one year. I would be delighted to start asap.

From 2013 to 2023, I lived in Surrey, working as a nanny and art tutor in Kingston and Richmond. The past year, I worked as an art teacher and after-school art club instructor at international elementary schools in Hungary. Now, I am eager to return to the UK to explore new places, as I love to travel.

Additionally, I am flexible with my availability and can accommodate your schedule.

I have two children, a boy and a girl. Susan had been with us for over a year. After a very short period of time Susan had been treated as a family member by my children. She was taking care of them when they were ill and on certain days she collected them from nursery and from school and took them to sporting activities. When my children were at home Susan enriched their lives by playing with them. My children’s drawing and creative abilities have developed significantly as well. One of my favourite memories is when they created a forest in the children’s bedrooms with coloured paper. Our children were very disappointed when Susan moved from Budapest to London, they have mentioned her name a lot after she left. They missed very much their “long-haired Susan”.
