I am a professional, reliable and highly motivated individual who has gained a vast amount of childcare experience in different settings over the last 10 years. I currently work in the outdoor industry where I provide three day residential adventure holidays for key stage two children. I have previously worked as a nanny for several years as well as employment in creches, a montessori school and in private homes childminding. I have experience minding babies as young as five weeks old right up to working with teenagers. I also hold a childcare qualification, first aid qualification and CRB criminal clearance. I am currently employed so will only be available for part time hours.
