Babysitter in Caterham
My Summary
About Me
Full clean UK driving licence***
DBS available***
Fully insured***
Available ASAP, and open to ad hoc work with advance notice.
Warm, experienced nanny with over a decade of hands-on childcare, from newborns through to teenagers. I've worked live-in and live-out, including two years as sole-charge nanny for two young boys in London, plus plenty of experience with babies and toddlers, nappy changes, feeding, naps and everyday play.
Children naturally gravitate towards me, I think because I'm genuinely present and engaged with them, not just supervising. Patient, fun, and comfortable working sole charge or alongside parents.
My Experience
Childcare Experience
Own family: niece and nephew, newborn through teenage years: hands-on care across every stage, including feeding, bathing, nappy changing and everyday engagement.
Live-out nanny, Pimlico/Marylebone (2017–2019) : sole-charge care for two boys aged 7 and 10 for a single father working long hours. Daily school pick-ups, cooking dinner, bedtime routines, and planning after-school activities.
Nanny, private family (2016–2017) : supported a family with a baby and school-aged child where mum worked nights and dad worked days. School pick-ups, playtime, baby's bedtime routine and nappy changing.
Live-in nanny (Sept–Oct 2015): one month live-in cover for an 8-year-old while her parents travelled. Full daily routine including school runs, meals, homework support and bedtime.
Various local families (pre-2015) : a range of babysitting and part-time nannying roles covering all core areas of childcare.
Other Professional Experience
National Account Manager, corporate role (incl. Harrods, Selfridges, Sainsbury’s etc) : managed key retail buyer relationships, requiring reliability, discretion and strong communication. Took a career break from nannying for this role and am now looking to return to childcare part- time.
