My Summary
About Me
Hi, I’m Sue.
I started my career as a nanny and progressed to caring for adults of all ages during my nursing roles. I currently teach and arrange placements for nursing students across Gloucestershire. Although I enjoy teaching and nursing, I have moved to management rather than patient contact and miss that personal contact. I’m keen to return to looking after children as I find it rewarding to watch them grow and develop over time. I am looking for babysitting and nanny positions.
Whilst I have been nursing, I’ve regularly spent time with my friend’s children and look after them on a regular basis. This has given me the opportunity to reassess what I would like to be doing for the rest of my career. I have realised that I miss being able to care for and help children develop to the best of their abilities.
My career has made me organised and willing to change and adapt to any circumstances at the last moment. I am hardworking, friendly and my good communication skills have been essential over the years. I love the outdoors and in my spare time enjoy walking, both in the Forest and further afield, and I love photography including nature around me on my walks.
I completed the London School of Childcare Studies Common Core Skills and Knowledge Level 2 on the 24th September 2025, this along with the First Aid Course and enhanced DBS will give me the option to join the Ofsted Voluntary Register.
My Experience
Over the last 25 years I have worked as an Adult Nurse in the NHS. Previous to that I worked as a Nanny for 2 families between 1995-1999. I obtained the qualification of National Nursery Examination Board Diploma in Nursery Nursing (NNEB) in 1995.
During my time as a nanny I looked after 4 children varying in age between 1 and 6 years. I was responsible for school drop offs and pick ups, day to day childcare for the younger children including taking them to activities. Also looking after all of the children during school holidays or if they were unwell.
