My Summary
About Me
I am a professional nanny and educator with extensive experience working with children ranging from toddlers to teenagers. My commitment is reflected in the longevity and depth of my previous roles, and I bring a holistic, creative approach to childcare that fosters both independence and emotional well-being. Drawing from my background in art, psychology, and coaching, I aim to nurture each child's unique development through curiosity, creativity, and connection.
Over the years, I’ve supported families with travel and proxy parenting, developing adaptability and a strong cultural awareness. Being bilingual has enhanced my communication skills across diverse family environments. I work best with families who value open collaboration, creativity, nature, and emotional growth within a mindful and balanced home life. I’m seeking a role where mutual trust, teamwork, and respect are the foundation of a lasting relationship.
My Experience
I bring over two decades of dedicated childcare experience to my career, encompassing diverse roles in schools, holiday play schemes, and the private sector as a nanny. My extensive journey in childcare has been marked by a deep commitment to enhancing the lives of children, including those with Special Educational Needs (SEN), particularly within the autistic spectrum.
My career has spanned various educational settings, including both primary and secondary schools, where I have excelled as a Teaching Assistant. Additionally, I had the privilege of teaching my own class in a college, further enriching my teaching skills and adaptability.
In the role of a nanny, I have provided exceptional care to children ranging from 6 months to 12 years old. My most recent nanny position, which spanned an impressive 9 years, is a testament to my reliability and dedication in fostering a nurturing and educational environment for children under my care.
Throughout my career, my passion for childcare and education has been a driving force, enabling me to positively impact the lives of numerous children and their families. My wealth of experience, coupled with my empathetic approach, uniquely positions me to continue making a meaningful difference in the lives of the children I serve.
