My Summary
About Me
I am a dedicated and nurturing childcare professional with over 6 years of hands-on experience working with children in both nursery settings and private families across the UK. I have a strong background in early years development (I hold a Psychology degree). I love being around people. I'm fascinated by different cultures and views. I'm very curious, and I love to discover new places and activities all the time and involve the children in many of them. I'm fascinated by the arts and I'm very creative.
I have a genuine passion for working with children and believe in creating a warm, secure, and stimulating environment where they feel safe to explore the world around them. I love encouraging learning through play—whether that’s through sensory activities, storytelling, creative arts, or simply helping children discover the joy of asking questions and making sense of their surroundings.
I particularly enjoy planning meaningful outings such as trips to museums, theatres, parks, and nature walks, as I believe these experiences enrich a child’s curiosity, imagination, and understanding of the world. My approach is child-led, patient, and responsive, always aiming to foster confidence, independence, and emotional regulation.
With a calm and consistent presence, I am committed to supporting children’s growth while maintaining strong, open communication with parents to ensure continuity of care and shared goals. I value routines, emotional security, and playful discovery—and I take pride in contributing to a child's early years in a way that leaves a lasting, positive impact.
My first language is Italian but I speak English, some Spanish and I have basic knowledge of French and German (willing to improve).
My Experience
I always worked with children; as a babysitter, animator in hotels/resorts and in summer camps, as a nanny and tutor.
I now have 6 years of experience in childcare in London as a Nursery teacher, nanny and babysitter.
I’ve been working as a nursery teacher in N2 in the area of Hampstead Garden Suburb (OFSTED Outstanding), where I was taking care mainly of 2 to 4-year-old children, but I have experience with all ages.
As a nanny, I've been working with children from 4 weeks to 8 years old. I also have experience with a smaller period with older children up to 12 years old; however, my focus was on babies and toddlers.
The reason why I am leaving my current family is that their children will both start full-time school, and they won't need me during the day.
I can provide many references in case you need confirmation about my professionalism and reliability.
I always had a good relationship with the parents of the children I worked with, and everybody considered me very caring and responsible.
My Qualifications
I hold a First-Class degree in Psychology with a particular focus on child development, attachment theory, and emotional wellbeing. My academic training deeply informs my childcare approach, allowing me to support children not only practically but also emotionally and developmentally.
While I was working at the Nursery, in addition to my knowledge and the daily improvement of my skills in my workplace, I've also been attending a Childcare course to enhance my knowledge regarding child development, the regulations and standards in childcare.
