About Me

I am a very easy going and honest person that genuinely loves my work! I love to sing and belong to the well-known RockChoir, I have also been a member of a theatre Group and love dancing and singing (work commitments have led me to take a break from this at the moment). I also play the Flute and have been learning to play the guitar over a year. I intend to incorporate music sessions each day in my Childminding and have a wide range of instruments for the children to choose from. I love socialising with friends especially listening to open mic bands play in pubs! I love walking and swimming!

In January 2016 I gave birth to my Son Zachary - I absolutely love being a Mother finally!

My Experience

I have 18 years of experience working as a sole charge nanny with children age 2 months old - 16 years old. I have worked for a family of triplet girls from age 19 months-31/2 years old and also my last job I was a sole charge nanny to twin boy and girl aged 51/2 months old until they were 21/4 (They unfortunately went to nursery so this job sadly came to an end).

I have had experience with children with health problems including asthma, diabetes, severe gastro-reflux, Cystic Fibrosis (I was responsible for chest physiotherapy, administering medication and at times Intra-Venous Antibiotics), and one child whom suffered Febrile Convulsions.

I always keep my Paediatric First Aid up to date and am very calm in emergency situations.

I also have some experience with children with special needs including Autism, nasogastric and gastrostomy feeding.

I have passed my Childminder (Feb 2012) in Practice course and 12 hour Paediatric first aid course (March 2012). I have been successfully registered with Ofsted on the compulsory register.

I also work bank shifts at the local hospital as a Maternity Support Worker from Antenatal through to delivery suite - I perform Maternal and Neonatal Observations, support breast feeding, and assist Midwives in theatre for Caesarian Sections, vantouse and forceps deliveries. I also work bank shifts asba Paediatric Healthcare Assistant on the Children's Ward.

My Qualifications

I am Maternity and Nanny Trained (MNT), Paediatric First Aid Qualified Feb 2012
Childminder In Practice course and Safeguarding children passed March 2012

I studied for a Diploma in Paediatric Nursing at Surrey University and achieved 9/12 modules before unfortunately having to leave my training due to health problems at the time. However, I gained so much valuable experience on the children's wards, teenage unit, SpecialCare Baby Unit, Shadowing healthvisitors and community nurses that I now put this knowledge and experience into my practise as a nanny.

My Availability

I have places available Monday Tuesday Thursday

I live in a new development which has a play park opposite our house. I'm walking distance to Milford train station. I have a garden with a playhouse, toy kitchen, ride on toys, scooters, ball games, trampoline, slide and a sandpit. I also have two rabbits called Rosie and Poppy which children love! I also have a wide range of toys, games, puzzles and art and crafts inside.

I am also available to work as a Nanny if families don't mind Zachary in tow. I was a nanny for 19 years prior to switching to Childminding 3 years ago.
