My Summary

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

• Handling medical appointments and daily household tasks

• 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.
