35+ YEARS EXPERIENCE CARING FOR CHILDREN FROM BIRTH TO TEENS

CARING RELIABLE PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCED

Hello, I’m Joanne

I’m an Ofsted Registered childcare professional with over 35 years’ experience caring for children from newborns through to teenagers and supporting families with their individual childcare needs.

I provide caring, reliable and flexible nanny childcare in your own home, supporting both student parents and working families.

Whether you need childcare around university, college, placements, study, work, changing timetables or your child’s individual needs, I can discuss a flexible arrangement to suit your family.

EXPERIENCE SUPPORTING CHILDREN WITH ADDITIONAL NEEDS

I have experience supporting children with additional needs and SEND, including ASD, ADHD, SEN, behavioural challenges, trauma, asthma and diabetes.

I understand that some children and families need a more individual, patient and flexible approach to childcare.

SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES – SUPPORT FOR STUDENT PARENTS

From August 2026, changes to student childcare funding mean that nanny care may only be considered in certain circumstances.

Where a nanny is required because of a child’s additional needs, disability, health condition or individual family circumstances, Special Circumstances may allow student parents to apply for nanny childcare support.

I can help you understand the process and support you with preparing your application, including the information and evidence you may need.

Please speak to your university or college about your individual circumstances and eligibility.
