My Summary
About Me
I'm Australian with full rights to work in the UK. I worked as a nanny and au pair in London and across Europe years ago when I first moved to the UK and really loved it. Currently completing post graduate studies in psychology and would really like to do part time childcare again.
My Experience
Several years as a full-time nanny for newborn to 6yr olds. Have also worked in primary and secondary schools in the UK and Australia, including specialist training in special education needs.
My Qualifications
Degree qualifications in psychology, including child and developmental psychology.
My Availability
Pretty flexible availability, including weekends and evenings. Ideally looking to cover a maximum of 30hrs in an average week.

Below are the latest reviews for Kate. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk members and not of Childcare.co.uk. Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
Our one-year-old really loved Kate—she was able to adapt to his needs, which is crucial, as he’s a bit advanced and grows easily bored with typical baby entertainment (things like nursery rhymes, for example). Us adults in the house felt comfortable with her as well, as she’s personable with an interest in politics and academia. Would hire again!
