My Summary
About Me
I’m a well-educated, professional woman transitioning into a more local, balanced lifestyle by taking on regular childcare.
As a mother of grown-up children and a grandmother to little ones living around the world, I truly miss the warmth and energy of a busy family home. I understand firsthand the challenge of juggling a career while being a present parent — and the importance of finding reliable, caring support you can trust.
Looking after children of all ages brings me great joy. I create a calm, engaging, and supportive environment where children feel secure, happy, and encouraged to thrive.
My Experience
I currently provide regular childcare for several families who would be happy to be contacted for references. I have also provided occasional babysitting and holiday care for families who need flexible support.
My Qualifications
Apart from being qualified by experience, I did qualify as a registered nurse and midwife after leaving school and specialised in emergency care. I haven't worked as a nurse for a long time, but I haven't forgotten my medical training, especially first aid.
I’m in the process of registering as a Childminder with OFSTED and have completed a 12-hour Paediatric First Aid course, ensuring children’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities.
My Availability
I manage my own schedule and can offer flexibility to suit your family’s needs.
I’m available on Wednesday and Friday mornings for school runs and have some evenings free from 6:30 pm. I can also provide ad hoc full-day care during school holidays and half terms (with notice), as well as evening and weekend babysitting.
