My Summary
About Me
Hello!
With over a decade of hands-on experience working with children from babies to teens, I bring a warm, energetic, and imaginative approach to every childcare role. My background in performance adds a playful, engaging edge to my work, while my professional experience ensures structure, reliability, and developmental support for every child in my care.
I’m an imaginative, energetic, and nurturing individual with a background in acting, which I bring into my childcare in creative and playful ways. I love inventing fun games and activities that engage children’s imaginations and encourage learning through play. From drama games like Park Bench and Birthday Party (where kids act as characters or animals) to outdoor adventures like Hungry Birds or nature-based Predator & Prey hide-and-seek, I tailor each activity to suit the child’s age and interests. I’m also passionate about arts and crafts as both a calming tool and a way to spark creativity. Whether it’s painting with leaves and fruit, designing tea towels, or making unicorn puppets and paper planes, I love turning craft time into something magical and memorable.
A big believer in staying active, I grew up dancing, swimming, playing netball for my county, and doing athletics. I incorporate this love for movement into my care—be it pool trips, mini tennis matches, or simply running around in the park. I also value emotional well-being and love introducing children to simple mindfulness practices. We might write “I wonder” lists, create a worry box, or start a gratitude jar—helping little ones build emotional awareness in a gentle, playful way.
I genuinely love working with children—being part of their world, for a long/short time, is incredibly rewarding. As a nanny, it's a privilege to watch them grow, discover who they are, and support their development through each new stage. I form close, trusting bonds with the families I work with, and build relationships with the children that are full of laughter, creativity, and care.
Best Wishes,
Alice
