My Summary
About Me
The only available slots I have left are Monday Tuesday Thursday Friday 8am - 1pm. Please bare this in mind before getting in touch! If what you need is outside of these hours, unfortunately I will not be able to help.
I am an experienced, passionate and highly qualified Early Years Teacher, with an extensive knowledge of early child development. I have over 10 years experience working with children in a variety of settings, aged between 3 months and 10 years. I have worked in nurseries, school settings and was once a teacher!
I spent most of my time in a setting with just babies and toddlers, and so have expertise in caring for infants aged 6-30 months. Babies and young children are my passion!
I have a full clean drivers license of 11 years and my car is fully insured for work business use. I have many years of experience with collecting children from nurseries, schools, and after school clubs.
The last 3 years of my career have been spent nannying for large families with children of all different ages (often simultaneously). I love my current role and thrive in supporting children, learning and having fun with them in their home environment!
I pride myself in taking great care of all my responsibilities and duties related to looking after the children in my care and the family home. This is always adapted to the individual needs, routine, and wishes of the families I have the pleasure of working with.

Tasha has been looking after all 3 of my kids at various times over the past 5 years, from the age of 1 till 7! She's brilliant, so bubbly and caring and fun. The kids and I always get on so well with her and she's totally trustworthy. She looked after one of mine in a professional nursery setting and also as a private babysitter many times since then and I'd definitely recommend her, infact I do already to friends.
