My name is Shirree, I am a mother of 2 lovely little boys and have just moved to Portmahomack.
| I have experience working closely with Children aged between 0-11 years. I have my SVQ level 2 and had completed half of my level three before I had to leave my job working in the nursery. I worked in the nursery for three years and then I Nannied four children aged between 20 months and 8 years, I was then a childminder for a year before I had my 2nd son followed by just over a year of nannying for two families, now I am looking for something to fit around and involve my family. Childcare is all I want to do. I love making the little ones smile, there is nothing more rewarding than being the reason behind that. I have tried working other occupations i. E in a bakery and in an office, but I just missed working with the children too much and really want to get back into it.

  • Inverness Ness-Side
Fun-loving Nanny
| My name is Rebekah and I am an organised, confident, and friendly person. I am keen to undertake a new challenge and broaden my experience within childcare. I first spent 10 months nannying for a family in Edinburgh with 3 children aged 7, 4 and 1. I loved this job so much and became close to the family, as the children did to me also, but it had to come to an end because I moved to Inverness. I then nannied temporarily for a 16 month old boy and 3 year old girl before spending almost 2 years with a 2-4 year old boy and 4-6 year old girl. I am currently nannying full time for a 1 year old boy and 3 year old boy, however as they are moving away in late summertime, I am looking for a new family to begin with. I have worked with young children and young people across a wide spectrum of ages. I have helped with a crèche, am a weekly teacher at a Sunday school and a regular babysitter. I hold a full disclosure for those relevant roles. The family which I babysat most regularly for in Edinburgh have 5 children whose ages range from 4 months to 10 years old, so I am use to caring for many children. I have always loved caring for children and it has at all times been a part of my life.
