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 career. 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 a nanny position.
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.
My Qualifications
1993 – 1995. National Nursery Examination Board Diploma in Nursery Nursing
2002 – 2005. Bachelor of Nursing (Adult) with Honours
16 August 2025 Paediatric First Aid Training Course (OFSTED) Qualification
24th September 2025 London School of Childcare Studies Common Core Skills and Knowledge Level 2

Sue has provided adhoc childcare for my 6 year old girl and now my 1 year old boy for the last 5 years. This has included day trips, school pick ups, mealtimes, homework and bath/bedtime routines.
I have always found Sue to be a wonderfully warm person with genuine interest and affection for my children.
She is always willing to get down and play with the children at any age. She is gentle but firm when it comes to discipline and manners which is important to me.
More recently she has provided babysitting for my 10 and 12 year old step children also, she manages all four children together calmly and with a sense of fun.
I would highly recommend Sue for any Nannying or babysitting needs
