Nanny in Ashtead (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
About Me
Available for a permanent or long term position to start between November 2026 and January 2027. Open to ad hoc and temporary roles.
I am an experienced and loving Nanny, a big fan of outdoor play, art, cooking, and reading with children. I'm able to support their routines from new-born sleep through to GCSEs, and all the stages in between.
I enjoy guiding children as they learn and grow, encouraging their independence and offering them opportunities to build on their curiosity.
Degree educated, with qualifications in Montessori and RIE. I hold a current first aid certificate, clear DBS, clean driving licence, and excellent references. I am registered with Ofsted.
My preferred locations to work include Claygate, Cobham, The Dittons, Guildford, Ashtead and the villages around them.
Please get in touch to learn more, view my CV, or to arrange a call. I look forward to hearing from you.
My Experience
I have over 17 years experience as a sole-charge Nanny with children from newborn to age 16. I’m also a mother to a grown daughter.
I’ve worked as a children’s storyteller in an independent bookshop in Twickenham (sadly now closed) and as a volunteer with the early years team in a London museum.
Random info:
I have a degree in construction engineering, speak 3 languages (English, Makaton and sarcasm), and hail from Gods own country (Yorkshire), though decades in the Home Counties have pretty much obliterated my accent.
I love long walks in woodland, Hay Festival, and fennel tea
