Millie
Nanny in Chessington (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
About Me
I am a reliable, caring and hard working 21 year old with over 5 years of child care experience, dedicated to creating a safe and engaging environment for children to thrive in. I have recently graduated from the University of Southampton with a degree in English Literature and live in Chessington.
Looking after children has always been a natural and rewarding part of my life. I am open to both babysitting and regular nannying roles and would love to support a family looking for consistent, reliable childcare. I’m available for daytime and evening work, including part-time or full-time roles, and have extensive experience with routines and bedtime care across a range of ages. I’m calm, patient, and dependable, and I aim to create a safe, engaging environment while communicating openly with parents.
A little about me! I love baking and cooking, especially trying out fun new recipes to share with my family and friends. I am confident preparing nutritious meals for children and adults of all ages, and happy to adapt to different dietary requirements.I’m passionate about storytelling and enjoy reading, watching films, and writing stories of my own. I am currently learning to ski which has been a very fun and rewarding challenge, and something I hope to continue developing. I also love travelling and exploring new places and cultures.
