About Me

A fun, caring, creative individual, able to offer casual, regular, and emergency child care and household support for families in the York area.

I have a variety of interests, including the outdoors, baking, arts, crafts, yoga, music and play. As a freelancer in York’s community and creative sector, childcare is not my primary job, however I gain so much enjoyment from supporting families, especially in regular roles where I get to know both parents and children well. I aim to offer a friendly, easy going service that fits in with your family’s needs!

I can also offer homework and tutoring support for various subjects and study levels. Please do get in touch to discuss further details.

My Experience

I have experience caring for a range of ages, from 6 months up to and including teenage years.

Working on a part-time and adhoc basis, I have provided nanny services for a number of families in recent years, including children under 1 yr, summer holiday care, at home and on day trips out, and overnight stays for children over 10 yrs.
I have babysat, volunteered at children’s holiday and sports clubs, and tutored up to A-Level in multiple subjects.

I have been fully vaccinated against covid-19.
Happy to look after pets, home, and plants too!
