About Me

I’m a bubbly and enthusiastic 23-year-old with lots of experience teaching and working with children and young people. Being half Spanish and half English, I bring a warm, multicultural outlook and a natural ability to connect with families. I’m naturally chatty, love spending time with children and believe they bring out the fun, creative side of life. Whether as a nanny or a tutor, I am passionate about supporting children’s growth, education and happiness in a safe, caring and engaging way.

My Experience

I have a wide range of childcare and teaching experience, both formal and informal. I began tutoring during secondary school and later spent several months in Poland as an au pair for a family with a baby, where I also tutored young adults. Since then, I have worked every summer at an International School in Spain, supporting pupils from Nursery through to Year 6 as both a Teaching Assistant and Teacher. Most recently, I completed a Primary PGCE, qualifying me as a teacher.
These experiences have given me strong skills in supporting learning, managing routines and encouraging positive behaviour. I am creative and energetic, and I enjoy planning activities that combine fun with learning. I also have experience supporting children with additional needs, ensuring that I provide an inclusive, patient and nurturing environment for all.

My Qualifications

I am a fully qualified teacher, holding a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) with QTS. Before that, I completed a degree in Politics, Philosophy and Economics, and I also have a strong academic background with A-Levels and IGCSEs.

My Availability

I’ve just moved to Derby and am currently fully available.

My Fees

  • Babysitting from £12.00 per hour
  • Tutoring from £20.00 per hour

For regular nannying and childcare, my rate is £12–£14 per hour, which reflects my experience caring for children of all ages in both home and school settings. For tutoring or educational support, my rate is £20–£25 per hour, as I am a fully qualified teacher (PGCE with QTS) and can provide structured learning, homework help, and tailored educational activities to support children’s progress and confidence.
