My Summary
Loving, Caring & Organised Nanny
About Me
About Me – Akhila Gill
I am a dedicated childcare professional with over 12 years of experience nurturing and supporting children’s growth and development. At 30 years old, I have been passionate about creating positive, engaging, and supportive environments for children since the age of 18.
Throughout my career, I have gained a wealth of hands-on experience and knowledge in childcare, and I remain committed to professional growth by regularly attending training courses to stay current in the field.
What I Bring:
• Enthusiastic, confident, and approachable personality
• Strong interpersonal and communication skils
• Highly organized and adaptable, ensuring smooth transitions into new family environments
• Natural ability to build warm, trusting relationships with both children and parents
Beyond Childcare:
In my personal time, I enjoy reading and singing, which bring balance and joy to my life.
Looking Ahead:
As my current contract concludes due to the children I care for becoming more independent and spending longer hours at school, I am now excited to join a new family. I look forward to bringing my enthusiasm, skills, and experience to create a safe, supportive, and fun environment where children can thrive.
My Experience
I began my career in childcare through a successful apprenticeship at a nursery, where I worked for four years with children from birth to age 5. During this time, I served as a key worker for 11 children, gaining extensive knowledge of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and supporting families with ad hoc babysitting. This experience inspired me to pursue nannying as a long-term career.
After qualifying as an Early Years Educator, I combined part-time nannying with studying Childcare Management at university, ultimately earning my degree. For the past 11 years, I have worked as a full-time nanny, caring for children from birth to 12 years old. My background has equipped me with the ability to create safe, stimulating, and nurturing environments, while supporting children’s developmental milestones and family routines.
Philosophy & Approach:
I believe strongly in learning through play and in the value of structured yet flexible daily routines. My approach blends engaging educational activities with opportunities for free play, supporting children’s social, emotional, and cognitive growth. I enjoy planning busy, well-balanced days that include classes, groups, and outdoor experiences to foster curiosity and confidence.
Key Skills & Experience
• In-depth knowledge of the EYFS and child development
• Creating safe, nurturing, and stimulating environments
• Planning activities that support developmental milestones
• Managing school runs, after-school clubs, and extracurricular activities
• Assisting with baths, bedtime, potty training, and sleep routines
• Preparing nutritious meals, meal planning, and grocery shopping
• Providing homework support and educational play
• Organising playgroups, outings, and holiday schedules
• Handling medical appointments and daily household tasks
• Strong organizational and time-management skills
• Experience with overnight nannying
With over 12 years of childcare experience, a degree in Childcare Management, and a genuine passion for supporting children’s growth, I am now looking forward to joining a new family and bringing my skills, warmth, and dedication to their home.

Akhila looked after my sons for a few weeks this summer (2022) and was amazing!!
My sons (aged 2.5 & 5) warmed to her so quickly. She would take them out to our local parks and playgrounds, did trips to the theatre, soft play cafes, Kew Gardens and Bushy park. She would have them feed, bathed and dressed for bed by the time my husband and I had finished work!
I can not recommend Akhila enough! She really was such an incredible help and just a warm and calm person to have in our home looking after our sons.

Akhila looked after my son aged 2 for a short period of time during November 2020- jan 2021.
I am a single father and freelancer and Akhila was amazing and flexible! She worked for us for two months temporarily whilst I was in the process of switching jobs and moving house . We discussed that she would want to eventually return back to full time work and she was willing to help me out until I found a more permanent job. She even helped with the process of selecting our new part time nanny. My son absolutely loved her and he kept to his routine despite the move thanks to Akhila
I can not express how great she is and how much myself and my son could rely on her during such a crazy time !
I recommend her to your family with no doubt.

Akhila looked after my 2 kids for a period of 1.5 years then aged 4 and 6 years.
She was punctual, reliable and most importantly was a natural with kids. She genuinely enjoys being around children and is able to connect with them effortlessly.
She was meticulous about her duties and got children to keep to their routine. She knew how to establish boundaries and could manage the children well.
My children fondly remember her and we are lucky to have her over for babysitting once in a while. I would highly recommend her!

Akhila looked after my two boys aged 1 and 5 at the time. This was a full time position with my younger son and after school with my eldest.
She was great at prepping meals and ensuring the kids stuff was ready for the next day. She is very organised and would have a planner on the fridge for me to see what the children ate and what activities the younger baby had or was going to have for the next day.
She is very friendly and easy to get along with and I never worried with my children being in her care especially given her amount of experience and qualifications.
I would highly recommend her as a nanny .
