About Me

Hello! I am currently pursuing my Master's degree in Oceanography and Climate Change at the University of Edinburgh, where I am deeply committed to understanding and protecting our planet. Alongside my academic journey, I have always had a natural love for children. Caring for and supporting young people brings me joy, and I hope to have a family of my own one day.

My background combines patience, empathy, and responsibility with a strong sense of curiosity and creativity. Whether helping with homework, encouraging play, or fostering a safe and nurturing environment, I bring the same dedication to childcare that I apply to my studies. I believe in creating positive, supportive experiences that help children feel valued and inspired.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my two kittens, having a blast playing board games with my mates, and painting.

I’m looking for childcare work in the Edinburgh area regularly, and I am currently available for both nannying and babysitting work.

My Experience

I have worked in the childcare industry for over 12 years, caring for children from newborns through age 8. My approach is phone- and TV-free, as I believe in engaging children through meaningful activities and experiences. I enjoy spending time outdoors, visiting libraries, and attending kid-friendly events that spark inquisitiveness and exploration.

I also have extensive experience supporting children with special needs, including those who are neurodivergent, have learning disabilities, or have additional needs. I am committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and inclusive environment where every child feels valued and supported.

I warmly welcome and support all families, including single parents, LGBTQ+ families, and diverse households, creating a safe and nurturing environment for every child.

My Qualifications

BS - Environmental Policy (with Sociology & Psychology courses)
MSc - Oceanography & Climate Change

I bring over 12 years of professional childcare experience, caring for children from infancy through age 8. During my undergraduate studies, I worked in a nursery, gaining hands-on experience in early childhood development and group care. I also hold first aid knowledge, ensuring safety and preparedness in any situation.

My long-term experience, combined with specialized training and a genuine love for children, allows me to provide nurturing, reliable, and engaging care tailored to each child’s needs. Families can trust me to create a safe, supportive environment where children thrive.

My Availability

I am currently seeking a full-time nanny position, ideally Monday through Friday, five days a week. While I am looking for a consistent schedule, I am flexible and open to discussing arrangements that best suit the family’s needs. In addition, I am available for occasional evening babysitting, offering extra support when needed.
