My Summary
About Me
I offer reliable and caring nannying and babysitting services for babies and young children.
I have two years of experience working as an Early Years Educator in a nursery. Prior to this, I worked in a special educational needs setting, where I gained valuable training and understanding to support children with a range of additional needs. I am also a mother to a child with additional needs, which has given me further hands-on experience, patience, and empathy.
I provide a safe, nurturing environment and enjoy supporting children through play, learning, and structured routines. I can help with day-to-day care, including meals, playtime, and bedtime routines.
I am friendly, patient, and dependable, and I aim to build a positive and trusting relationship with both children and parents.
