Nanny in London: Ealing (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
About Me
I'm 47 years old and born and bred in Ealing, West London. I have done various jobs over the years but have always had an interest in working with children. I'm an outgoing individual who enjoys traveling, socialising and experiencing new things.
I have a background in dance, so consider myself to be fairly creative with a good imagination for new games and play ideas. During my time as a dancer, I also helped to run dance classes for children aged between 3-12.
My travels have taken me to SE Asia and Australia, where I lived and worked for a year. I love learning about and experiencing new cultures and countries and I value the time that I have spent in all of these wonderful places highly. My time away definitely helped me grow as an individual. I lived in Sri Lanka for 3 months where I helped teach English to children aged between 4-17 at a Tsunami Relief Camp. It was a very challenging yet rewarding experience.
While I'm at home I love nothing more than meeting up with friends and family and generally enjoying life. I love going to the theatre, art galleries and exhibitions. London is an incredible place to live and I feel very fortunate to call it home as there are so many things happening on your doorstep.
I'm looking forward to finding a job with a family who are fun loving, outgoing and who are looking to welcome a nanny into their home.
My Experience
After returning from some overseas travel and while looking for a job a friend asked if I could help look after her children on a short term basis., whilst she recovered from an operation. Through them I was recommended to other families to help out with more short term childcare placements. Although over the years I have worked with children in many forms from babysitting since I was 14, teaching children's dance classes for a couple of years, volunteering as a teachers help in a primary school and teaching English in Sri Lanka, I had never considered a full time career in childcare until the families I was working for (both parents and children) told me I was very good at my job and suggested I look into taking it up full time. I thoroughly enjoyed the work, so I took their advice and decided to seek a full time nanny position and make childcare my career. Since then I haven’t looked back.
I have looked after children on a daily and weekly basis, evening babysitting and on some occasions over night and at weekends while the parents are away. I have experience with twins.
My Qualifications
I have no recognised childcare qualification, everything I know has been learnt on the job over the years.
I hold a full DRB check. I am currently not Ofsted registered, but would be happy to reregister if a family required it. I also have an Ofsted recognised Paediatric First Aid certificate and I have full nanny insurance.
My Availability
I am ideally looking for a FULL TIME, SOLE CARE, 4/5 day position with ONE FAMILY.
Ideally I would like to find work in either Chiswick, Acton or Hammersmith. I can be available from 7.00am-7pm (depending on how far from home the job is). I will be available from the start of September.
My Fees
- Babysitting from £20.00 per hour
- Nannying from £18.00 per hour (net)
I currently earn £17 per hour net. A nanny share placement commands a higher net rate per hour, as can part time and temporary positions.
