My Summary

My Experience

I am a fully qualified Nanny & Teaching Assistant and lived in Spain for several years. Sept 2017, I worked as a private Tutor teaching children who were french & spanish - english and mathematics. I also worked as a Nanny around this role . The children's ages ranged from 4 to 15 years.

Prior to this, i would fly out to Barcelona on a regular basis, to nanny / tutor for a Russian family. I would teach English through play and other means. Their daughter was in reception class and attended a British School.

I hold numerous qualifications relating to childcare & teaching but also with the elderly and sheltered housing. I am a specialist carer with special care babies and children.

I have extensive experience with newborn and newborn twins. I fostered a severely brain damaged baby , sadly the result of shaken baby syndrome. She was diagnosed with cerebral palsy, epilepsy, visual impairment, with a limited life expectancy. Due to spasms and other such orthopaedic problems, she wore a hip spica for several months, which required special care and attention. I am committed to delivering a high level of quality care.

My experience spans many years, whereby I have worked with children with a range of complex needs.
Visual impairment , moderate to severe learning difficulties , Aspergers syndrome, autism , ADHD , dyspraxia , dyslexia etc etc.

I have had the pleasure of working for many high profile individuals, actors, musicians, a model and corporate business persons. A night nanny for a premier league footballer in the West Midlands, providing overnight, sole charge care, of his 11 week premature baby - 3 nights a week - the contract 3 months.

As a Magistrate of 12 years, I supported the local community. I resided in The Birmingham Victoria Law courts and also the Priory Courts as a family Magistrate. I was a Foster Carer for over 14 years. This fitted in around my nannying work, much of which was through a Nanny Agency in the West Midlands.

I have raised 3 siblings from the age of 2.5 years, 3.5 years and 4.5 years. My husband and I fostered the children initially but then became their legal guardians. Two of the children were diagnosed with Neurofibromatosis NF1.

I hold a clear UK enhanced DBS, and hold a full clean UK driving licence.

I flew over to the UK on 11th Feb 2021, motivated to help, during the coronavirus pandemic.
I liaised with a Doctor who lived in Bahrain. She was flying to the UK to take up a new position at a local Birmingham hospital. I worked with her 2.5 year old twins, a boy & girl. They were 3 years old in May 2021.

I attended to all the personal needs of the twins, preparing and serving up meals , showering, dressing and settling down to bed . This included toilet training and getting them both out of nappies , in preparation for starting nursery September. Encouraged self help skills , provided learning opportunities, education and outings . The children and I had an excellent rapport. From day one, we got on like a house on fire! They were truly delightful and an absolute pleasure to work with!! They had such an enjoyable and fun time!!
I finished with the family on 23rd June 2021. I supported two families throughout June / July and odd days in August .

I have continued to support families in one way or another, including Night Nanny . 3 overnights per week for a consultant and his wife in Moseley, their baby was aged 5 months.
I also provided 4 overnights per week for a family with newborn baby twins. I worked with this family from November 2021 - 22nd April 2022. The twins were 4 weeks old when I went to work with them .

I provided Night Nanny support for a family with a newborn, 18th May 2023 - July 2023.
From 17th July - 4th September 2023 , supporting a family during school holidays with their 2 children , 3 days per week. Mon, Tues, Thurs.
2 overnights per week during Feb 2025, for a newborn 2 weeks old, in Broadway.

I worked with a parent whose child had difficulties sleeping through the night.
I provided overnight support and was able to make observations during this period of the child. I suggested strategies in order to address the issue and we worked in partnership to provide consistency!

Lack of sleep can have a profound impact on home and family life, leaving parents and children exhausted as they face the day ahead!

In a short period of time, he was sleeping through the night and the parent and child are now able to have a proper restful night. He is one very proud little boy!!! I continue to support the family.

I currently provide support for different families from babies upwards.
The families I have worked with has been consistent over the last 3 - 4 years.

My Availability

I have recently finished working with a family after 3 years, as their little one started pre school in September 26. I cared for their 8 month year old until he reached 3.5 years old.
I would also have his older brother during school holidays. This was on a weekly basis, Monday - Friday mornings. We always had such an enjoyable and fun time together!
During October half term, I spent a couple of mornings once again with the boys, to maintain some continuity and will babysit for the family occasionally moving forward.

During September and October, I also helped a single father in Worcester with school drop off & pick up and some overnights. He required support on an adhoc basis and had to go to London due to work commitments.
This was the first time he had left his son with anyone and it was naturally quite a wrench for both parent and child.
Everything went smoothly and his little one had such a fun time! He now looks forward to my visits.
This is the little boy who loves trains!

I attended a wedding on Saturday 3rd Oct and attended to all the needs of a severely disabled 2 year old, as his parents enjoyed their wedding day and to ensure he was included as much as possible. I stopped overnight at the hotel, sharing a room with him and attended to all his needs, leaving late morning.
The parents will have their honeymoon in January 2027 and from 15th Jan - 1st Feb, I will support the extended family, as they care for him whilst the parents are away.

I have been supporting other families with adhoc childcare during the summer months, September and October.

I continue to support a family in Marlcliff, Thursday afternoon with school pick up.

I am currently supporting a mum in Bishops Cleeve, with after school pick up on an adhoc basis, during November. I worked with the family prior to the school summer holidays.

I am the type of nanny who usually does a role which is somewhat out of the ordinary! I fly to Ireland , Dublin or Belfast, to facilitate contact for a father and his two sons.

I collect the children and escort them through the airport and on the flight. Once handover with the father is complete, I return home the same day. From September, this will probably be late Friday afternoon’s, depending on the father’s needs and flight times. This will not be every Friday each week, he lets me know well in advance, to check if I am available?

I escorted the children on various train journey's, so they could meet up and enjoy the weekends activities at The Glastonbury Festival 2024. Dropped them off Friday tea time and collected them again on the Sunday 5pm! I did the same trip 27th & 29th June 2025.

I have supported this father for almost 4 years.

I have regular availability, so do feel free to get in touch to discuss your requirements.
