My Summary
About Me
Hi Families, I'm Charlotte, a dedicated and experienced nanny with over 10 years in the childcare industry. My background includes working in nurseries and voluntary roles, which has given me a deep understanding of child development. I've also had the privilege of caring for children with Special Educational Needs (SEN) both in key childcare settings and within family homes.
As a live-out nanny, I offer flexible and reliable childcare for children aged 0-13. My approach is centered around creating a warm, nurturing environment where children feel loved, happy, and safe. I believe every day is a new adventure, and I love exploring the outdoors with the children, engaging in arts and crafts, reading, and so much more.
With my experience, I've developed a wide range of skills that enable me to provide fun, creative, and engaging activities tailored to each child's needs. My goal is to provide a stable and loving environment that allows children to thrive. Let's create some amazing memories together!

Charlotte joined our family in April 2021, and I use that wording purposefully. In the three years we’ve known Charlotte, she has truly become a part of our family. She began watching our baby when she was just a year old as well as our 5 year old son on holidays and evenings. She has been a key part of our household ever since. She has been working with us since then every Monday to Friday consistently and sometimes long hours and weekends — and she never missed a day!
Of Charlotte’s strengths—and there are many—her greatest is her expertise and knowledge as a nanny. She is an energizing and positive presence as she worked with us through the best ways to teach, nourish and care for our daughter. She would enter into our home as a very welcome presence and bring a happiness and energy that we cherished.
We also want to highlight again how reliable Charlotte is. As an expat family, she has been the secondary caregiver to our daughter which says a lot. She has jumped in to take care of her when she’s been ill. She has watched her while we were away travelling for several days at a time. And we have invited her to travel with us. For example, Charlotte went with us to Scotland so she could watch our children while we hosted a family event.
Charlotte is irreplaceable! We will always stay close to Charlotte and we would happily invite her into our home in the future. This time as a babysitter and as a friend.
I sincerely hope that you are quick to give her a position, as her warmth, attentive care, and inviting personality will be sure to endear her to you and your family.

Charlotte has been an excellent nanny to our two and four year old. Despite the challenges of COVID-19 since she has worked for us, she has never failed to find ways to entertain the children despite the limited options. She has been a great help with the housework and cooking, always cooking excellent and nutritional meals for the children and us. During her time with us she has done the school run for my eldest child and was always on time and kept us updated. She has is extremely reliable and often comes to the rescue with overtime or helping wherever she can. We are really sad to see Charlotte go, but are expecting our third child in 2021, so we won’t need her once I am on maternity leave. An excellent nanny that any family would be very lucky to have.
