My Summary
About Me
My approach is family-centred, working in close partnership with parents to ensure consistency in care, routines, and developmental goals. I have extensive experience caring for children from infancy through school age, including planning age-appropriate activities, managing routines (meals, naps, hygiene), and fostering positive behaviour and emotional regulation.
I am patient, dependable, and proactive in maintaining a safe and positive space, with a strong understanding of early childhood development and the ability to adapt to the needs of each family I work with.
Key aspects of my service include:
Creating a warm, trusting bond with children
Supporting learning through imaginative play, reading, and crafts
Preparing healthy meals and snacks
Maintaining routines (sleep, hygiene, school runs)
Promoting positive discipline and social development
Light housekeeping related to the child’s care
With a proven track record of long-term placements and positive feedback from families, I bring dedication, compassion, and professionalism to every role I take on
