My Summary
About Me
About Me
Hi, I’m someone who has spent over 20 years caring for children, and it’s honestly something that means a lot to me. I love being around children—their energy, their curiosity, and watching them grow into their own little personalities is what makes this work so rewarding.
Over the years, I’ve worked closely with families in different settings, and I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your children. I’m calm, patient, and easy to get along with, and I always aim to create a safe, happy space where children feel comfortable, supported, and free to be themselves.
Before working in childcare, I trained as a professional chef, which is something I still really enjoy. I love cooking fresh, healthy meals and making sure children are well looked after in every way.
I’m reliable and down-to-earth, and I treat every child with genuine care and kindness. Whether it’s playing, helping with routines, or just being someone they can feel safe with, I always give my full attention and heart to what I do.
For me, this isn’t just a job—it’s something I truly care about.
My Experience
I have a wide range of hands-on childcare experience gained over 20+ years, working across nursery settings, childminding, babysitting, and caring for twins. This has given me strong adaptability and confidence in supporting children of different ages, personalities, and needs.
I have experience caring for children one-to-one and in group environments, allowing me to balance individual attention with managing routines and structure effectively. Working with twins strengthened my organisation, patience, and ability to meet multiple needs at the same time.
I have also worked with children with additional needs, including cerebral palsy and traits of autism, which has developed my patience, awareness, and ability to tailor care to each child.
Alongside this, I am a trained professional chef and can prepare healthy, home-cooked meals for children and families when required.
