My Summary
About Me
Enthusiastic, pro-active and reliable early years nanny with over 10 years experience and a genuine passion for nurturing children and ensuring they are cared for in a happy and safe environment. Seeking a part time position to fit in with my current role as my hours are reducing.
A warm friendly individual with the skills to provide constructive play and age appropriate activities to engage children and promote their learning and development, whilst also being mindful of the individual child’s needs. Dedicated to developing strong, trusting relationships with children and their families and ensuring excellent communication.
Ten years ago, I made the decision to turn my love of childcare into a career. I then went to Australia to
be an Au pair which also combined my love of travelling. I am a family orientated person from a large family and it has always been a passion of mine to care for babies and children. From a young age I regularly babysat for my younger sisters and cousins and in the school holidays I would often assist a childminder. I have also been regularly taking care of my niece and nephew since they were born. My other interests include yoga, movies and collecting plants.

Carrie has been working for us as a full-time nanny in Watchfield, Swindon. We are unfortunately re-locating to London and therefore she is leaving us. She has been left in a sole-charge position of our two young kids when both of us are at work. She is a most excellent nanny/child carer: we have had nannies before and she has surpassed all our expectations and beyond. She has potty trained our 2year old and helped him relinquish his bottle during the day to which he was extremely attached! (With extreme resourcefulness!) She has provided great support while our 1year old had constipation issues and helped her eat/ drink more to solve it! She is 100% reliable and trustworthy. She is always punctual and her flexibility is one of her greatest assets. She will happily change her hours and days of work at short notice. She has a very warm and loving personality and our children have flourished under her care. She is gentle and very caring yet can apply discipline when needed. Her passion for her profession is evident. She certainly has 'can-do attitude' and no job is beyond her. The most important thing for us was that our children were very content and secure in her care and they are very fond of her. She will be an invaluable asset to any family, we thoroughly recommend her. Please contact me for any further details, will very happily supply!
