My Summary
About Me
I am a dedicated and experienced childcare professional with a Level 3 Diploma for Children and Young People’s Workforce and a Level 2 Swimming Teacher qualification. I have worked extensively with young children and bring a warm, caring, and attentive approach to each child’s individual needs. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can thrive.
In previous roles, I have been responsible for planning and delivering daily routines, preparing healthy meals and snacks, supporting learning through play, supervising outdoor activities, and assisting with homework. I particularly enjoy setting up fun, creative, and engaging activities tailored to each child’s interests and developmental stage—whether it’s arts and crafts, sensory play, themed games, or outdoor adventures.
I have strong interpersonal skills, work well with families from all backgrounds, and build trusting relationships with both children and parents. I am reliable, organised, and hold a full UK driving licence, making me flexible and able to support school runs, outings, or extra-curricular activities when needed
My Experience
I have over 11 years of experience working with children aged 0 to 5, starting in a private nursery where I progressed to the position of Third in Charge after four years. During my time there, I delivered the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework across all age groups, supporting children's development in a nurturing and stimulating environment.
After six years in the nursery setting, I transitioned to a nannying role, which I thoroughly enjoyed for five years, building strong, lasting relationships with the families I supported. Although the role eventually came to an end, I remain passionate about working with children and currently work in a special needs school, gaining valuable experience in supporting children with diverse needs. Additionally, I work as a swimming teacher on weekends and some evenings, combining my love of teaching with promoting physical development and confidence in children.
I am dedicated, flexible, and deeply committed to the care and development of children in all stages and settings.
