My Summary
About Me
Hi, I am an experienced nanny, nursery nurse and qualified children's nurse.
I have lots of experience caring for babies and toddlers and absolutely love doing so! I am still amazed at just how quickly little ones learn and really enjoy showing them new things. I really believe in the value of learning through play and day to day activities, and like to celebrate all achievements, however small!!
I consider myself to be kind and caring, honest and reliable. I have often been praised for my ability to remain calm, which definitely helps when caring for small children!
I love cooking and baking, and much prefer to cook from scratch where time allows. I have supported families in weaning their baby, including preparing meals using fresh ingredients, batch cooking, and baby led weaning. I also have experience caring for babies and children with a milk protein intolerance, and making necessary changes when preparing food is now second nature.
I also love spending time outdoors, and really enjoy spending time by the sea or in the countryside.
My Experience
I have cared for children aged between 6 months and 10 years as a nanny and nursery nurse.
As a nurse I have experience caring for newborn babies, including those born prematurely or in need of a little extra support. I have also cared for children and young people with complex needs.
My Qualifications
Child Nursing DipHE
NNEB nursery nurse
Paediatric first aid
My Availability
I have lots of availability and flexibility. However, I am not looking at wrap around type roles, preferring a minimum of 6 hours on any working day.

Messaged 4 days before we were due to meet to say she could no longer fulfil my requirement. I wish I had read the previous review but I gave Claire the benefit of doubt.

The reason why I cancelled is that Kiran changed her requirements from needing a nanny, to needing a nursery, I was really upset by this as being a nanny I can't provide this service and therefore unable to meet the requirements.
Kiran has since changed her requirements to needing a nanny once again.
Really sad as we interviewed many nannies and then decided on 2 to meet as Claire knew, but she pulled out last minute saying she wanted to reduce her days despite not updating her profile for other families re her reduced days and just put her rates up the next day.

Yes, I decided to pull out, although this was 6 days before the proposed interview date, where no time or place had been set.
I decided to reduce my working hours, to nearer to 20 than 30, whilst still being available across 3 days if shorter days, therefore no change needed to availability.
My fee is based on experience and qualifications.
I also felt that the tone in messages had changed and was far less friendly, making me feel like the last choice.
