About Me
Hello! I'm Darren, a doting Daddy to an extraordinary 8-year-old girl. Juggling work commitments and taking care of a family where Mummy is battling a long-term health condition which makes her very tired, I've realized we could use an extra pair of hands, especially during the after-school hours. Despite the challenges, our family thrives on fun, love, and laughter, and we're seeking a nanny who fits right into this mix!
My Requirements
We're looking for a part-time Nanny to be our daughter's after-school buddy. Our little one is a bundle of energy, always ready for outdoor adventures, crafts, baking, and board games. She is ASD and attends a local SEN school. She is really friendly and affectionate and good with other children / pets. We need someone who can accompany her to after-school activities, park visits, beach trips, or simply engage in fun indoor activities on wet days. During the school holidays, there's potential for increased hours, as we currently have childcare for 4 out of the 5 weekdays. We're excited to meet someone who can join us in making our daughter's world even more fun and loving!

Toni has cared for our daughter, 10, on many occasions over the past five years, including both schedules regular childcare and short notice / during emergencies, and has consistently proven herself to be reliable, calm, and highly capable. We have always felt confident leaving our daughter in her care, knowing she will be safe, supported, be well looked after and most importantly have a really fun time.
Through her professional experience in her day job, Toni brings valuable knowledge and practical skills to her childcare. This experience is especially evident in the way she manages and supports our daughter’s additional needs. She is attentive, patient, and adaptable, and takes the time to understand what our child needs to feel comfortable and settled.
Toni is empathetic and genuinely child-focused. She has built a lovely positive, trusting relationship and always prioritises our daughter’s wellbeing. She communicates clearly with us, follows routines carefully, and responds thoughtfully to any challenges that arise.
We would not hesitate to recommend Toni as a childminder. She has been an enormous support to our family, and we consider ourselves very fortunate to have had her care for our daughter.
