Registered Childminder Job in Brockhampton Green
About Me
We are a warm, friendly family with two happy little boys aged 2½ and 3½. They both attend a local preschool and are energetic, curious, and love playing, reading, and spending time outdoors.
We live in the countryside, where there’s plenty to keep the boys entertained. They love riding their balance bikes and little quad bike, helping to feed the chickens, visiting the cows, and exploring the fields around our home. We also have a playground, playroom, sandpit, trampoline, and swimming pool, so there are lots of fun activities to enjoy both indoors and outside.
We run our own business, and I (mum) often work from home in my upstairs office. While I’m usually around the house, I may be working, on calls, or away at meetings, so we’re looking for someone who is confident caring for the children independently during their scheduled hours.
We also have two small, friendly Pomeranians and a hamster. No pet care is required, but we’d love someone who is comfortable around animals.
We’re looking for a kind, reliable, and proactive nanny who genuinely enjoys spending time with young children. We’d love to find someone who is flexible and dependable, and who is happy to help with occasional extra hours when needed, including sick days (subject to availability), some weekends, and the occasional family trip. We hope to build a long-term relationship with someone who feels like an extension of our family.
My Requirements
We are looking for a reliable, caring part-time nanny to work Monday to Friday (5 days a week). The role involves collecting our children from preschool at 3:10 p.m. and caring for them until approximately 6:00–7:00 p.m., with occasional evenings running later if needed.
We would also love someone who has flexibility to provide additional childcare during school or nursery sick days (subject to availability), occasional weekend babysitting, and, from time to time, accompany our family when we travel.
The ideal nanny will be warm, dependable, and experienced with young children. Responsibilities include preschool pick-up, supervising play, preparing snacks or a simple meal, and helping with the children’s afternoon routine.

We cannot recommend Kelly highly enough as a nanny. She has been an absolute blessing to our family, looking after our two-year-old and seven-month-old with such care, love, and professionalism. From the very first day, Kelly has gone above and beyond in every aspect of her role.
Kelly is incredibly warm and nurturing, and it’s clear that she genuinely loves working with children. She has a natural ability to connect with them, making both of our little ones feel comfortable and secure in her care. Our two-year-old absolutely adores her and looks forward to the time they spend together, while our baby is always calm and happy in her presence.
What really stands out about Kelly is her proactive and can-do attitude. She doesn’t just look after the children; she truly becomes part of the family. Whether it’s preparing meals, tidying up after playtime, or helping with household tasks, she always steps in without hesitation and with a cheerful attitude. It’s such a relief to have someone so dependable and thoughtful around.
Kelly is also extremely attentive and patient, adapting seamlessly to the different needs of a toddler and a baby. She’s fantastic at coming up with age-appropriate activities that are both fun and educational. Our toddler has learned so much from their time together, and Kelly is always mindful of encouraging creativity and development. At the same time, she’s wonderfully gentle and caring with our baby, making sure their routine is followed and they’re always well looked after.
Communication with Kelly has been effortless. She keeps us updated throughout the day and is always approachable if we need to discuss anything. She’s also incredibly reliable and punctual, which has been such a relief.
She’s not just a nanny; she’s someone who genuinely cares about our family and works tirelessly to ensure our children are happy, healthy, and thriving. We’re so grateful to have found her and would recommend her wholeheartedly to any family looking for exceptional childcare.
Thank you ❤️
