Lauren
Nanny in Winchester (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
About Me
Hello, my name is Lauren. I am 31 years old and currently living in Miami, but I am planning to relocate back to Winchester at the end of September.
I have spent the last few years dividing my time between managing hospitality venues and working in childcare roles, both of which I thoroughly enjoy. Alongside this, I have recently completed my TEFL qualification, allowing me to teach English as a foreign language.
Childcare has been a consistent part of my career since university. I hold a BA in Choreography and Dance and have experience working in a variety of educational and childcare settings, including primary schools, Montessori nurseries, and private nurseries.
Most recently, I worked in a private nursery supporting children aged 2–4 years old. During this role, I gained valuable experience in early years development, safeguarding, and child welfare, as well as obtaining both safeguarding training and a Paediatric First Aid qualification.
I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, develop confidence, and thrive. I am reliable, caring, and adaptable, with experience supporting children of different ages and developmental stages.
While I do not currently hold a driving licence, I am based in Winchester and am happy to use public transport or other arrangements where required.
