About Me

I'm a 26-year-old still finding my feet in this big, ever-changing world. I currently work as an Enrolment Officer in adult education, and in my spare time, I love cooking, reading, and spending quality time with friends and loved ones.

I've always been a naturally empathetic person—something that’s only grown from being one of six siblings (five girls and one boy). My family means everything to me, and I’m incredibly close to my nine nieces and nephews, who I love as if they were my own. They’ve played a big part in helping me discover how much I enjoy supporting and encouraging children as they grow and explore the world around them.

I’m always happy to step in and help my siblings with childcare, and I’d love to offer that same support to other parents—especially those who may not have the everyday help of a “young, child-free little sister.”

My Experience

I have over 12 years of experience caring for children, starting with looking after my own nieces and nephews. It was through this that I discovered my genuine passion for working with children and supporting their development.

The first child I cared for professionally was just 2 months old, and since then I’ve gained experience with children of various ages. I’ve completed over 100 hours of work experience at two different early years settings: Le Nid Childcare in Dulwich and Surrey Square Primary School.

I’ve also worked with the childcare agency Bretsa, through which I had the opportunity to work within several LEYF (London Early Years Foundation) nurseries, gaining valuable hands-on experience in a variety of early years environments.

In my work with parents, I prioritize building a strong relationship based on trust and open communication. By entrusting me with the care of your child or children, you’re giving me a significant responsibility—one that I believe cannot be fulfilled without both trust and clear communication.

I’m reliable, nurturing, and always focused on creating a safe and engaging space for children to learn and grow.
