My Summary

Friendly, Fun & Caring Nanny- With Dbs!

My Experience

I have plenty of experience working with children across a range of ages and settings. I worked at Ardingly College for a full term, primarily supporting children in Pre-Prep, as well as pupils across the Prep School through to Year 9. I supported children throughout their day, both in the classroom and during break times, including helping with lessons such as reading, spelling, maths and English. I also provided 1-to-1 support where needed and helped with pastoral care within the boarding environment, supervising children and supporting them with their day-to-day activities.

I also got involved in sports and activities, taking children out on trips and helping to create fun activities for them to enjoy. I really enjoyed getting to know the children and building positive relationships with them, while making sure they felt supported, comfortable and well cared for.

My Qualifications

I graduated from the University of York with a BSc in Psychology, which gave me a strong understanding of child development, including social and cognitive development, behaviour and individual differences. In my final year, I chose to study Social Cognitive Development as a specialist module, further developing my understanding of how children grow, learn and behave.

I also have experience in sports coaching and practical experience with basic first aid through working with children.

My Availability

I’m currently looking for childcare work and have strong availability throughout the week. I’m flexible and happy to work around a family’s routine and childcare needs, whether that’s regular weekly hours, school pick-ups, full days or occasional additional hours. I’m also happy to be flexible and increase my hours where needed if the right family arrangement develops. I’m available Monday to Friday, and I can also occasionally help with further weekend childcare when arranged in advance!

My Fees

• Babysitting from £15.00 per hour
• Nannying from £15.00 per hour (gross)

My standard rate is £15 per hour for both babysitting and nannying. I’m happy to discuss rates depending on the hours, responsibilities, number of children and specific needs of each family!
