Level 3 Childcare practitioner - Lots of experience
| Hi, My name is Leanne. I have roughly 12 years experience working with children through nursery work and nannying. I have mainly worked with ages 2-4 however i have done some after school club work which meant caring for children up to 8 and my nannying and babysitting positions include all ages up to 14. I love working with children and providing a safe and stimulating environment for them. My main role now is that of a part time nanny allowing me to take adhoc work and continue my studies in midwifery. I love being a nanny as it allows me to put my attention into families to provide them with reassurance that their child is being well looked after and happy! I have my own transport and i hold many certificates of training including paediatric first aid, safeguarding, behaviour management, food hygiene and many more and many childcare qualifications. My years of experience have enabled me to be the best child carer i can be. I am friendly, approachable and would love to help a family in need. :)

Leanne has been absolutely brilliant looking after my son, a very friendly professional and bubbly young lady. Leanne has been available at short notice, always on time and even from the first time Leanne looked after my son... I felt very much at ease, with no worries and was kept updated. I would highly recommend Leanne, her qualifications and experience are clear to see, along with a very caring nature- Leanne even did our washing up!! Can't thank her enough"

In summary, I am a confident individual who enjoys the outdoors and meeting new people.
| I'm Matt, currently in my second year of studying Business and Management at Bournemouth University. Before pursuing my degree, I served as the supervisor for a Pre-School room at a nursery just outside of Bournemouth, overseeing the daily operations and ensuring a safe and enjoyable environment for the thirty-eight children in my care. My responsibilities included managing day-to-day activities and fostering both educational and recreational experiences for the children attending the setting. Prior to this role, I accumulated five years of experience working in two different nurseries, where I interacted with children ranging from three months to four years old. Additionally, I have a background in weekend nannying for various families with children of different age groups. Beyond childcare, I've worked as a water-sports instructor, teaching sailing, windsurfing, stand-up paddleboarding, and kayaking to children aged 6 to 15. Moreover, I spent three months working as part of a children's club in Croatia.

Experienced in childcare ages 3 months and up. Patient and caring person.
| Hello my name is Elana. I have spent the last 2 winter seasons working as a childcare nanny, in a small team in a holiday resort, caring for babies and children up to 13 years old. I worked on a 1:1 ratio for under 1's. 1:2 ratio for 1-2's and 1:3 ratio for 2-4's. This is to give you an idea but will depend on the setting and any other children in my care, if you have older children too. In between times I worked as a nursery assistant, working with larger groups and with 1:1 children requiring additional support.
