My Summary

My Experience

I have over 10 years’ experience working in childcare, education and outdoor learning, offering both nannying and babysitting support for children and young people aged 0–18.

My background includes working in family homes, schools, outdoor education settings and activity-based programmes. This has given me a strong toolkit for supporting children in different environments, routines and emotional states, whether for regular care or occasional babysitting.

I have particular experience working with children with Autism, ADHD, attachment differences, dyslexia, dyspraxia and other additional needs, as well as supporting children experiencing anxiety or low mood. I’m confident with sensory-aware care, clear communication, emotional regulation support and creating routines that help children feel safe and understood.

Alongside this, I’m a qualified 200-hour yoga teacher, which feeds into my work through movement, play, grounding and calm transitions. I balance structure with creativity and fun, and I’m very comfortable taking the lead while staying responsive to what each child needs in the moment.
