Kelly
Nanny in East Staffordshire
My Summary
About Me
My name is Kelly and I am an experienced nannu and qualified childcare professional based in the UK, originally from South Africa. I have over five years of experience working with children from newborns through to teenagers across early years settings, private nannying, and specialist care environments.
I take a warm, child-led approach and focus on creating a safe, nurturing environment where children feel supported, confident, and able to thrive. I have a strong background in supporting children with additional needs, which is an area I find especially meaningful and rewarding.
Alongside childcare, I bring PA experience within private households, confidently supporting with organisation, routines, and day-to-day logistics. I am also currently studying AI Engineering, with a genuine interest in supporting families beyond childcare where needed.
I hold a Bachelor’s-equivalent qualification in Health and Social Care Management, a Level 3 Children’s Workforce Diploma, Level 4 Early Years certification, Paediatric First Aid, a full UK driving licence, and an up-to-date DBS.
I’m reliable, proactive, and genuinely invested in the families I work with — looking for a role where I can be a consistent, positive presence and add long-term value.
My Experience
I have over 4 years of experience working with families in private households across the UK, caring for both under-5s and school-aged children. My roles have included sole-charge, live-in and live-out nanny positions, as well as family assistant support within fully staffed homes.
I’ve supported children through all aspects of their daily routines, including mornings, school runs, homework, playdates, extracurricular activities, and bedtime. I focus on creating safe, engaging environments that encourage learning, creativity, and emotional wellbeing, both at home and out in the community.
I have also travelled internationally with families during school holidays, helping to maintain familiar routines and provide consistent, reassuring care while away from home.
Alongside childcare, I’ve often been responsible for coordinating schedules, liaising with schools and tutors, arranging appointments, and managing day-to-day organisation. I’m confident supporting children with additional emotional and behavioural needs, including ADHD, and always aim to be a calm, patient, and nurturing presence.
I take pride in building strong, trusting relationships with children and parents, and I bring a hands-on, organised, and positive approach to every role.
