My Summary

My Experience

I have around five years of childcare experience, including babysitting, full-time nannying, and live-in au pair roles, caring for children of various ages.

In 2023 I worked for 9 months in France, caring for a newborn, as a full time nanny. I focused on creating gentle routines, supporting early development, and maintaining a calm, secure environment.
In 2024, I worked in Australia, looking after two toddlers in a live-in role, managing busy daily routines and planning fun, engaging activities to support their development.
In 2025, I worked as a full-time nanny for a two-year-old, using play and Montessori-style approaches to support learning, including introducing phonics which helped them begin reading simple words by age 2.5.
Since beginning my degree in Sept 2025, I have continued to do part time nannying for different families and regular babysitting.
I create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment and build strong relationships with both children and families. References available upon request.
