My Summary

My Experience

I have over three years’ experience as a sole-charge private nanny, supporting families with children of various ages and building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. In addition to my nannying roles, I have experience working within private nursery settings, allowing me to combine practical childcare experience with my knowledge of early years development.

I currently provide ongoing nanny support for families, caring for children of different ages including babies, toddlers, twins, Irish twins and multiple siblings all being under five years. My current roles involve caring for children from as young as three months old, supporting daily routines, developmental milestones, activities, outings and providing consistent care tailored to each child’s individual needs. These experiences have strengthened my confidence in managing busy households, balancing the needs of multiple children and creating a calm, nurturing environment.

I am fortunate to have supported families beyond their usual routines, including travelling with families as their nanny, where I have provided reliable childcare in new environments while ensuring children feel secure and their routines are maintained. I have also built strong relationships with families who trust me to become a dependable and positive part of their children’s lives.

Throughout my childcare experience, I have cared for children from three months old through to eight years old, including babies, toddlers, twins, Irish twins and multiple children at once. I am confident managing busy days independently, ensuring each child receives individual attention, encouragement and care.

I have experience supporting children with a range of individual needs, including Autism, ADHD and behavioural challenges, adapting my approach to help each child feel understood, confident and supported. I also have experience supporting important milestones such as weaning, learning to walk, potty training, developing independence and building communication skills.

I enjoy creating engaging, meaningful experiences that support children’s learning and development, including messy play, sensory activities, creative activities, baking, outdoor adventures, visits to parks, farms, playgroups and local activities. As well as this I regularly meet up with other nannies and their children for outings, play opportunities and activities, allowing the children I care for to develop their social skills while creating a fun and engaging environment outside of the home. I use my knowledge of child development and the EYFS to plan experiences around each child’s interests, helping them learn through play in a fun and nurturing way.

I pride myself on working closely with families, respecting their routines, values and parenting styles. My aim is always to provide consistent, high-quality care while becoming a trusted and dependable part of family life.
