My Summary

My Experience

I have extensive experience working in a nursery setting and am passionate about supporting children’s learning, development, and wellbeing. Throughout my career, I have completed a wide range of training, including safeguarding, paediatric first aid, speech and language development, sensory learning, manual handling, and health and safety. This training has enabled me to provide a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can thrive.

I have a strong understanding of cultural capital and the importance of providing children with enriching experiences that they may not have access to outside of the nursery environment. As the nursery’s event planner, I organised a variety of cultural celebrations and events that promoted inclusion, diversity, and respect for different backgrounds, ensuring all children and families felt valued and represented.

I have experience supporting children with SEND and children who speak English as an Additional Language (EAL). I enjoy learning about different cultures and languages and am always willing to develop my knowledge further to meet the needs of the children and families I support. I believe in building positive relationships with children and parents to ensure every child receives the best possible start in life.

I previously worked in an Outstanding nursery and was proud to contribute towards maintaining the high standards that led to this achievement. While most of my experience has been in a baby room supporting children aged 0–2 years, I have also worked with older children and understand the different developmental stages and needs across the early years.

One of my key strengths is planning and setting up fun, engaging, and stimulating activities that support children’s learning and development through play. I have extensive experience creating age-appropriate activities that encourage communication, creativity, sensory exploration, physical development, and independence. I would bring this experience into a nanny role by providing exciting learning opportunities within the home and local community, ensuring children are continually engaged, challenged, and supported in reaching their developmental milestones.

I am a dedicated, caring, and enthusiastic childcare professional who is committed to promoting children’s development, wellbeing, and individual potential through high-quality care and education.

As every family’s needs are different, I am happy to discuss rates based on hours, responsibilities, location, and the specific requirements of the role. I am primarily seeking a live-out position but would consider live-in opportunities for the right family.
