My Summary

My Experience

I provide overnight childcare (7pm–7am) and flexible out-of-hours care from my home in Leeds City Centre, just a short walk from Leeds General Infirmary (LGI). This makes my service especially suitable for NHS staff and medical professionals working night shifts or long hours.

I have extensive experience working with children in a variety of settings, including:

* Live-in and live-out nanny roles
* Foster care and supporting children in need
* Newborns, toddlers, and school-aged children

What I Offer

During care, I provide a safe, nurturing home-from-home environment where children are fully supported overnight. My responsibilities include:

* Personal care routines (bedtime, hygiene, comfort)
* Healthy, nutritious meals and snacks
* Safe overnight supervision
* School drop-offs and morning routines (if required)
* Emergency and flexible bookings where possible

For school-aged children, I can also support:

* Homework help
* Structured routines
* School preparation in the morning

Child Development & Activities

I follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework for younger children, ensuring age-appropriate activities that support all areas of development.

I strongly believe children learn best through play, exploration, and real-life experiences, so I provide:

* Fun, stimulating indoor activities
* Creative play and learning tasks
* Regular outdoor experiences
* Nature walks, park visits, and library trips when appropriate

As someone who enjoys hiking and the outdoors, I actively encourage children to enjoy safe, healthy outdoor play whenever possible.
My Home Environment
Children are cared for in a clean, comfortable, and well-decorated home setting, designed to feel safe and calming during overnight stays. A dedicated sleeping space is provided to ensure restful nights.

* Full enhanced DBS on the update service (available for viewing)
* Full UK driving licence and insured vehicle for childcare transport
* Non-smoker
* Flexible hours (overnight care may extend beyond 7am when needed, such as 8–9am for NHS shift handovers)
* School drop-offs and pick-ups can be arranged
