Nanny in Isleworth (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
About Me
I am 33 years old and have over 10 years of experience working with children in a variety of settings. My childcare journey has included working in nurseries, babysitting, nannying, and providing childcare onboard Disney Cruise Line ships.
I have cared for children ranging from newborn babies to 14-year-olds, and I genuinely enjoy supporting children as they learn, grow, and develop their own personalities. Building positive relationships with both children and their families is something I value greatly.
I hold a Level 2 qualification in Childcare and graduated from St Mary's University with a degree in Drama and Theatre Arts (2015–2018). My background in drama has helped me bring creativity, confidence, and a fun, engaging approach to working with children, while always ensuring their safety and well-being remain my top priority.
At the moment, I am looking for work until mid-July. After that, I will be teaching drama in Kingston and Clapham for six weeks during the summer, from Monday to Thursday.
I will still have Fridays free during that time, so if that would be convenient for you, I would be happy to help. Until mid-July, I am fully available and flexible with my schedule.
Alongside my childcare career, I also have a degree in Acting, which remains a passion and ongoing interest of mine. As a result, I occasionally attend workshops and auditions and would love to work with a family who is supportive of this.
Of course, I would always provide plenty of notice if I needed time off for an audition or workshop and would never leave you with a last-minute request. I understand the importance of reliability and clear communication, and I would always do my best to ensure any arrangements are made well in advance.
Please do not hesitate to get in touch, as I am happy to answer any questions you may have.
