About Me
Hello parents! My name is Sophie, I'm 34 and I live Guildford. I'm a kind, caring, personable and confident person with 19 years' experience in working with young children, from ages 3 months to 8 years in both nursery settings and 10 years as a nanny.
As for my interests, I love Disney films, specifically the earlier animations, having grown up watching them! I'm a Harry Potter fan, I love theatre, a good binge-series. I'm involved in a couple of amatuer drama groups as I have a passion for acting. I also enjoy visiting different countries on holiday and countryside walking.
My Experience
In the past 19 years, I have worked with a variety of children in nurseries, before starting a career as a nanny 10 years ago, working part-time for two different families. I have been working for a family as a nanny Monday to Friday, working in the afternoons since October 2022.
My Qualifications
NVQ Level 2 in Children's Care, Learning and Development.
Paediatric First Aid
My Availability
I'm getting married at the beginning of May, then away on honeymoon all of all May for the honeymoon, and will be looking for a new and local family to work with around mid-June.
My approach in the care I provide is relaxed, mostly spontaneous where possible inbetween specified times parts of the day (considering any nap times and meals times) and planning as and when it's better to. When managing children's behaviour, the approach I naturally use is firm and fair. Instilling manners, confidence, fun and respect of boundaries is important to me, and I believe this is how children thrive the most. Being part of providing an emotionally and physically safe environment for children is my priority.
Happy to do a little batch cooking for your children, giving them freshly frozen meals, as well as on the go, and lunches/dinners during adventures out, so that my time working with you is most spent on playing with/supporting your little ones with learning and any school work, and giving them all the love, care and focus they deserve, as much as possible!
Also happy to put children's washing on, and tidy up after your children, while encouraging them to help to tidy up too.
If you have the same values and approach as me in the care you'd like for your child/children, and would like to get in touch, please feel free to message me. If this is what you're looking for, I'd love to hear from you!
