My Summary
Experienced & Qualified Nanny Available For Part-Time Role Immediately
About Me
Warm, nurturing and highly qualified nanny with over six years’ professional childcare experience, seeking a part-time position with a caring family. As a mature professional (46) and mother of three grown children, I bring both extensive expertise and genuine passion for supporting children’s development and well-being.
What sets me apart:
Specialist experience in supporting children with SEN, including autism, PDA, selective mutism, speech delays, and learning difficulties
Advanced qualifications such as Paediatric First Aid Level 3, Early Child Development, and multiple relevant certificates
Flexible and reliable, fully insured for car journeys to and from school and activitiesCreative approach, offering crafts, music, outdoor play and engaging games tailored to each child
Holistic care philosophy, embracing natural remedies and alternative health support
I excel in creating structured, nurturing environments where children flourish. My natural ability to connect with children helps them feel confident expressing themselves within consistent routines. Families value my reliability, open communication and the positive influence I have on their children’s progress.
Families have appreciated my:
Calm, professional approach when managing challenging behaviour
Creative activity planning and learning through playClear communication regarding daily routines and achievements
Adaptability to meet unique family needs
Skilled management of allergies, dietary restrictions and special needs
Available Monday to Friday and the odd weekend.
I'm currently waiting for my updated DBS and renewal of my paediatric first aid. I can become OFSTED registered if required. I start a Maternity Nurse training in London in November so that I can care for newborns as I will be placed with a family to gain the qualification.
