Nanny in South Oxfordshire (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
About Me
I am originally from Henley-on-Thames and have seven years of experience working with children from the ages 4-16 as a nanny and teacher. I've recently moved back to Henley and am available full time January-March 2027 and on an ad hoc basis from November 2026.
A little about me: I come from a large, close-knit local family and attended St Helen and St Katharine’s for secondary and sixth form, before going on to complete a BSc in Biology and an MSc in Science Communication at the University of Bristol.
Alongside my studies, I was heavily involved in rowing as a coxswain, balancing a full-time training schedule with academic work—something that’s made me highly organised and used to early mornings. I’m an active and outdoorsy person, and I enjoy bringing that energy into the time I spend with children.
Academically, I’m confident supporting schoolwork across all subjects, with a particular strength in sciences and maths. I achieved A*, A, A, and B in Biology, Chemistry, Maths, and Global Perspectives at A-Level, have one 2nd class and one 1st class degree.
My Experience
Since 2019, I have gained a variety of experience working with children in different roles. Over the past year I nannied for a private family in Richmond, providing reliable and attentive care from mornings through to bedtime. I’ve also been a primary school teacher at Kew Gardens and across various schools in Bristol, where I developed engaging lessons to inspire young learners. Additionally, I have coached gymnastics and fencing, helping children build confidence, coordination, and teamwork skills. I have also worked as a school lab technician at St Helen and St Katharine’s School in Oxford, supporting practical science lessons and ensuring a safe, well-equipped learning environment.
My Qualifications
I hold a full UK DBS check and have a clean UK driving license with six years of experience, as well as my own car with a no-claims history, ensuring reliable transportation. Additionally, I completed a Child First Aid course at St Helen and St Katharine’s in 2021 and am happy to renew this qualification if a more recent certification is required.
My Availability
I am available for any of my services from January to March 2027, and on an ad hoc basis from November 2026.
My Fees
- Babysitting from £15.00 per hour
- Nannying from £20.00 per hour (gross)
My babysitting rate is £15, and my nannying rate is £20, which takes into account my experience and qualifications. I’m happy to chat about any extra costs like fuel for travel or meals during childcare, so everything is clear and fair from the start. I’m flexible and always happy to work with families to find what suits you best.
