About Me
Hiya, I am Blakenie, and I am 25! i’m originally from Somerset in South West of England. I moved to London about 5 years ago, purely to widen my horizons and see what's to offer elsewhere. Recently I have moved back to Somerset to be back with my close ones, although I had fallen in love with London and I still have loads of places on my list to explore including: food, (massive foodie) and fun activities to do!
I enjoy music and dance, and I spend my spare time going out for dinner, going to exciting cocktail bars with friends and the highlight of my week are the dance classes I attend.
I have a brother and sister on my dad's side of my family, age sixteen and twenty one, who has a baby herself - my little nephew Noah! I also have a young brother from my mum's side, in the house I grew up in. My mum had me young, so my little brother and I actually have a 15 year age gap, which is the same as my mum and I. It has shown me a lot about gratefulness and quite frankly how incredible parents are, especially seeing the parallel with my brother and I’s age gap. My little brother is now 8, and he's the apple of my eye. We are best friends and is very excited I have moved back into my family home!
I have a large family, in which we are all very close, including lots of cousins - the eldest being myself. I am extremely family orientated, so I spent a lot of time going home often to see them!
My mum's ex-husband was in the army so as a child I moved around a lot in my life, including Germany! Unfortunately, I cannot give you anything exciting to tell you about the country as I was just two years old. I moved most years in primary school, so I learnt the ability to make a lot of friends quickly!
In the future, I hope to become successful in being a great, sufficient nanny for the time being, as well as focusing on my career as a brow & lash artist. I’d like to continue with dance too! My rough 5 year plan is to stay work well as a nanny, as ai have thoroughly enjoyed working as one for the past 5 years in London, focus on my new bussiness and spend time seeing the world. After, I plan to settle down and live in a close village to my family in Somerset.
And that’s my life in a little nutshell!
My Experience
I have looked after children in my family for as long I can remember, and with such a huge family consisting of mainly children, I have looked after many ages! I did the daily duties as well as nighttime bath and bed. My first experience outside my family, was when I have looked after two girls when I was 15-17, who were super sweet. They were seven and ten, and apparently tricky with their parents, I thought they were really well behaved after learning their behaviours, and how to get through to them, I felt that they were really polite girls that I enjoyed babysitting in the evenings and for bedtime.
I have been with a nannying agency for over five years. I have worked with two previous families and now sadly I have just had to leave the three families I have been dedicated for over the past three to four years - it was a very emotional goodbye, to say the least! . The ages I looked after for both prior families were 5 and 3. My duties were both after school nannying, including bath and bedtime routine. My last family ended because I had other commitments with dance at the time. I was asked to come back but my commitments took longer than we originally thought, which was such a shame. I was sent pictures and cards by the children through the parents after leaving the family and I felt very lucky to be part of their family for a short period of time!
My next three families consisted of one family of three, and their little cat. The child is was four when I started with them, and we had great afternoons together after picking her up from school, such as baking, going to the park, arts & crafts, and cupcake trips! second, which turned into a lovely family of five! family, I had worked for was a family of four. I also first started with her on her very first day at primary school, she had a one year old brother, that I occasionally look after in the holidays and after nursery. Lastly, on Fridays I helped out with a school drop off for two little girls ages 6 and 11.
