My Summary
About Me
Hello families! My name is Ellie, I currently moved to Banbury from Japan!
I’m an experienced childcare professional with over 10 years of experience working with children from babies to primary school age in Japan, Australia.
I hold a Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care from Australia and have experience in nurseries, nannying and babysitting, including caring for babies and supporting a child with additional needs(ASD).
I provide warm, attentive and play-based childcare tailored to each child’s individual needs and interests. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, respected and free to be themselves.
I can help with:
- Babysitting and nannying
- Play and age-appropriate activities
- Mealtimes, snacks and drinks
- Naps and bedtime routines
- Dressing and personal care
- Child-related household tasks
- Simple meal preparation for children
Cooking isn’t included, although I’d be happy to make something simple like onigiri! :)
I’m based in Banbury.
As I don’t have a car, I’m looking for opportunities that are accessible by public transport.
**I’m unable to provide school/nursery drop-offs or pick-ups.**
Please feel free to get in touch if you’d like to have a chat about your childcare needs.

Ellie is such an amazing nanny, she’s got such a lovely way about her, very calm and happy and our 15 month old loves her time with her. If you are looking for someone to look after your baby who is super attentive, calm and a lovely energy I would highly recommend Ellie. The first day she looked after her it was like she had known our baby for months. She is very intuitive and is a dream to have looking after our child. She even writes everything down throughout the day so we know what’s she eaten, how long she slept etc.

Thank you so much for your lovely review, and thank you again for choosing me to look after your little one.
I’ve really enjoyed spending time with her and watching her explore the world around her with such curiosity. It’s a joy to see her grow and learn as she tries new things. Her expressive little face always makes me smile!
I look forward to continuing to spend time with her and supporting her little adventures.
We hired Ellie to help care for our 5-month old son. All of us - and especially our son - were delighted and are so excited to continue working for her! She is punctual, asks excellent questions, does her homework (we sent her a care guide), knows our son and his needs intuitively, takes excellent notes, and is also a wonderful, cheery person. We are so grateful that she is willing to commute from Banbury to Oxford. She is definitely the most professional babysitter we have had the pleasure of working with.

Thank you so much for your lovely review, and thank you again for choosing me to look after your little one.
He is such a sociable and smiley little boy, and it made me so happy to see him smile and interact with me so warmly.
Spending time with him reminded me that every moment can be an opportunity for learning through play.
It was a really valuable experience for me too, and I learned a lot from our time together.
I look forward to continuing to be part of his journey as he grows and develops. Thank you again for your trust, and I look forward to working with you and your family!
