About Me

I am a mature, well spoken, and caring individual who has worked with children for the last 13 years and who takes a keen interest in their emotional, social and educational development.
Reliable, kind and positive, I am fully conversant with the full range of child-care responsibilities and enjoy engaging with children in imaginative play and arts & crafts; - inspired by the re-cycling box and current interests of the children! I'm very keen on lots of outdoor play and adventures which I feel inspire confidence and initiative in children.
Along side my nanny work, I also run art workshops for adults & children.
I seek a long-term role as an after-school and part-time holiday nanny, where I can work in partnership with the family. I'm seeking a long-term role with a local family, 20 hours a week at £20 ph gross,on a PAYE basis.
Current DBS and First Aid cert. Covid vaccinated.
I can provide excellent references.
