About Me

I am currently working full-time in nursery, but have a over a year's worth of experience working as an agency member of staff in schools and nurseries. I was born and bred in Lincoln. In my spare time I listen to lot of Radio 4, enjoy baking and am also an amateur actress.

My Experience

From October 2024 to February 2026 , I worked with multiple different educational agencies, largely with EYFS and SEN children (seventeen settings in total - including shifts at five Storal nurseries and over thirty shifts at two YMCA nurseries in Lincolnshire). The youngest child I have worked with, as a babysitter, was just a week old, but I generally work with twelve months and up. I have babysat for four different families so far, caring for two KS2 age children, one child who had just started school, three children under the age of one and one toddler. I am currently working full-time in a nursery, looking to do my level 3 Early Years qualification, very soon. References available on request.

My Qualifications

10 GCSEs A-C, including Maths, English and Child Development; Three Humanities A Levels A*-C; BA Hons. Biblical Studies and Theology 2:1; Level 3 Diploma in Health and Social Care.

My Availability

I live in central Lincoln and am a non-driver, but happy to get the bus/Uber. Free on an adhoc basis evenings and weekends (please message for my precise availability/specific dates - my shifts are on a rota, so availability differs week to week).

At least £13 an hour (may negotiate a little more/flat rate for extended/long overnight periods). Please note that I have to factor in the cost of my travel, as a non-driver.

Rachel looked after our 8 week old baby and was absolutely perfect. It was lovely to be able to go out for a few hours without worrying as she kept up good communication and sent us updates and photos, which meant everything to us as new parents. Came home to a happy, calm baby and would definitely ask Rachel to watch our child again.

Thank you! :)

Rachel was awesome. Took up a job last minute, made her way over and was awesome from the moment she came into our home. Our child loved her, she was so open to all his interest and things he loves to do, and shared her own with him which he thought was great. Will absolutely turn to Rachel again if and when we next need someone trustworthy, reliable and, most importantly, compatible with our children.
