Michelle
Babysitter in Hove
My Summary
About Me
I’m a soft-spoken, patient, and nurturing individual, proud to be a wife and mum to two wonderful daughters.
Outside of work, I find joy in painting, doodling, and collecting classic storybooks, stamps and crystals. Weekends are family time—my husband, daughters, and I love playing board games together and creating cosy, memorable moments.
My Experience
I worked as bank staff at a nursery in Hove, where I enjoyed the calm, caring atmosphere. I’m organised, observant, and good at supporting young children and their families.
Occasionally, I help settle an 18-month-old baby to sleep on Saturday nights, and I’m happy to support families with gentle evening routines when needed. Please feel free to text me anytime for urgent or short-notice support.
Since my time off is flexible, I am available at short notice. Please text me directly if anything urgent comes up.
