My Summary

My Experience

I have 1 year of professional experience working in a busy nursery setting, where I cared for children across different age groups — from babies through to pre-schoolers. During that time, I helped with daily routines, meal times, play activities, and supported children with their early learning and development milestones. I learned how to work as part of a team, follow safeguarding procedures, and give each child individual care and attention. Alongside my nursery work, I’ve built up 3 years of experience looking after friends’ and family’s children in my own time — this includes one-to-one care, school runs, bedtime routines, and keeping little ones engaged with fun, age-appropriate activities. I’m paediatric trained and Level 1 Makaton trained, and I have hands-on experience supporting children with SEND needs. I’m comfortable helping children regulate their emotions, guiding them calmly through difficult moments, and always encouraging a positive mindset. I love being part of their journey and helping them feel safe, happy and supported wherever I am.

My Qualifications

I hold a Merit in Health and Social Care, which has given me a strong foundation in understanding the needs of others, safeguarding, health and wellbeing, and person-centred care. I am also Level 1 Makaton trained, meaning I can use basic signs and symbols to help children communicate, follow instructions, and feel more confident expressing themselves. Additionally, I am paediatric trained, so I have the knowledge and understanding of child health, development, safety procedures, and how to respond appropriately to children’s specific care needs. I’m really proud of these qualifications and I’m always eager to keep learning and building on them to give the best care I can.
