My Summary
About Me
-I am currently moving from full time nannying roles to part-time and I am also available for babysitting -
I am a very active person and I enjoy playing with my little one (five years old) and walking our lovely dog.
I love to cook! I've had experience cooking for children/families with various diets, including coeliac, vegan and allergies. I understand how fussy children can be at meal times, so I like to come up with creative and fun ways to get children interested in their food. I think it's particularly good for them to be a part of the preparation/cooking process, where possible, as it gets them more involved and excited to try things.
I'm currently doing a part-time degree with Open University in Science.
I come from a large family and am one of five myself, so being in fast-paced environments or surrounded by children is very normal for me!
Keeping things tidy, organised and clean is one of my great skills. I'm happy to do some cleaning and help with laundry if needed.
I am extremely responsible, reliable, patient, caring, calm, with great communication skills, a good listener, well mannered, creative and imaginative, and very energetic. I am very fortunate that my characteristics and experience make me very well suited for the work I love to do, which is caring for and encouraging the growth of children and babies.
My Experience
I have over twelve years professional experience, started with regular babysitting, both during the day and evenings, and then went on to work in a children's nursery and as a nanny.
My recent roles include caring for a one year old for a lovely family in Poole, and I am able to provide excellent references.
Pre-pandemic I was caring for three children aged 6-9 in Cowes. Another lovely family on the island, sadly Covid meant one of the parents lost their job and so I was no longer needed. In this role, I collected the children from school, helped with homework, arranged playdates, cooked dinner and did light housework and laundry. During the school holidays I worked full days, which meant lots of fun trips out!
I am usually an Ofsted registered nanny, but I am in need of renewing my first aid certificate and my nanny insurance, in order to re-register with Ofsted. I will be doing this as soon as possible. I do have an up to date DBS (police) check, a full clean drivers license and two qualifications in childcare. I also have a happy and playful almost six year old myself. I am looking for a role where she can come with me, I’ve been fortunate enough to always find roles with families where this can happen, and it has been wonderful and benefitted both families.
My Qualifications
Child Development GCSE grade A
Full UK clean driving license
Paediatric First Aid Certified November 2016
Basic Disclosure check completed January 2017 and is updated yearly on the automatic computer system that I am registered with
Will again be OFSTED registered soon
My Availability
I am looking for part-time nannying hours now, although I am always open to doing ad hoc extra days when needed by the family. I am unable to start any earlier than 9am.
I don't do as much babysitting as I used to due to having my own little one, but it is something I can offer if I know in advance, and always for the families I work with, as I'm often the go-to person to ask and I love to help when I can.
