My Summary
About Me
I am a 46-year-old nanny and babysitter with extensive childcare experience gained through both my professional work and raising my four children. Becoming a parent taught me invaluable skills that cannot be learned from books alone, including patience, empathy, organisation, problem-solving, effective communication, and the ability to remain calm under pressure. I am confident caring for children of different ages, planning fun and educational activities, supporting daily routines, preparing meals and creating a safe, happy, and nurturing environment.
Caring for children has been a passion of mine for well over a decade, and it continues to be a career that brings me genuine fulfilment. I believe every child deserves kindness, encouragement, and consistency, and I work hard to build trusting relationships with both children and their parents. I understand that every family is different, so I am flexible, reliable, and happy to adapt to each household’s routines and parenting preferences. My goal is always to make life easier for parents while providing exceptional care that helps children feel safe, confident, and supported every day.
My Experience
I have many years of experience caring for children of different ages, both as a nanny and a babysitter. As a mother of four, I have gained invaluable hands-on experience in every stage of a child’s development, from infancy through to the teenage years. After taking a break from professional nannying, I have returned to a role that I genuinely enjoy and am passionate about. My personal and professional experience allows me to provide children with a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where they can thrive.
Throughout my nannying career, I have worked with several families who have been extremely happy with the care I provided. I am dependable, patient, trustworthy, and committed to supporting each child’s individual needs and routines. I understand the importance of building strong relationships with both children and parents, ensuring open communication and peace of mind. I always strive to create a warm, positive atmosphere where children feel secure, valued, and encouraged to learn and grow.
My Qualifications
I previously held a DBS check and a Paediatric First Aid qualification while working professionally as a nanny. After taking a career break, these certifications have since expired due to the passage of time. However, both qualifications were successfully completed and approved during my previous nannying career. I understand the importance of maintaining up-to-date safeguarding and first aid training.
