Mature Experienced Fun Dbs Checked Nanny

My Experience

I have experience caring for both boys and girls, from newborns to teenagers, and genuinely love supporting children as they grow and develop. My first nanny role was with a lovely family in Parsons Green, caring for three wonderful girls aged 5, 8, and 12. Although it wasn’t a live-in role, I often stayed over for extended periods while the parents were away on business trips or holidays. I had sole charge and managed everything from school drop-offs and pick-ups to preparing healthy meals. I was a professional chef for 10 years. I also organised after-school activities and playdates, and supported with bath time, homework, and bedtime routines.

Since then, I’ve worked with families in Twickenham and Battersea. In Twickenham, I cared for 13-year-old twin girls, providing after-school support and being a calm and friendly presence during their busy teenage years. In Battersea, I started with the family when their daughter was just 8 months old and continued on as they welcomed a baby boy a year later. This was a sole charge role where I supported both children’s routines, weaning, early learning, and day-to-day care.

Most recently, I worked with a young family in Morden, caring for their 6-month-old baby boy. I helped establish a calm and consistent routine, supported his development through age-appropriate play, and loved watching his personality blossom during our time together.

I'm confident in all aspects of care, from bottle feeding and nappy changes to encouraging learning through play, preparing nutritious meals, and keeping things running smoothly at home. I’m always happy to help with light household tasks and adapt to each family’s routine and preferences.

I’m warm, responsible, and fun. Children feel safe and comfortable with me, and parents know they can trust me. I understand how important it is to respect each family’s parenting style, and I always work in line with the values and routines you’ve set for your children.
