About Me

I am currently a part-time nanny and a qualified dance teacher with the Royal Academy of Dance, a role that reflects my long-standing passion for dance and children’s education. I currently teach three evenings a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) and have almost seven years of experience teaching children of all ages. I am seeking flexible part-time work around my current schedule, preferably in the childcare sector where I am keen to gain more qualifications.

I am a friendly, enthusiastic, self-motivated individual with a strong commitment to delivering high-quality work. My background includes extensive customer service experience, including five years with a luxury retail brand, where I developed excellent communication skills and a confident phone manner. I am proficient in IT systems such as email, Word, Excel, Teams, and Zoom, and I adapt quickly to new environments and responsibilities.

During the 2020 lockdown, while furloughed from Mulberry, I launched my own home-based baking business, producing cakes, cupcakes, and cookies. This experience strengthened my skills in organisation, bookings management, and financial tracking. I also have four years of nanny/housekeeping experience across a range of ages from newborn, in addition to separate domestic cleaning experience.
