43 years old part-time nanny, and printmaking artist.
| I have been a nanny for 4.5 yrs in London and have just moved to St Leonard’s. I also work as an artist and I am looking for some part-time work. I have mostly had nanny experience looking after toddlers aged 1-2. I am a friendly, smiley, gentle and patient person who enjoys the company of children. I enjoy being outdoors and think this is where kids are happiest too, playing in nature, exploring, looking closely at things. I enjoy drawing and playing with playdough with the children, reading lots, singing on the way somewhere in the buggy. I like eating healthily myself and like to see the child eating real healthy unprocessed food. No sugar and no telly is a good thing definitely :) In 2006 I assisted in a Montessori school for 2yrs with 2-5yr olds at the Clapham Montessori. In 2015-17 I assisted with art holiday workshops with children 7-11yrs at Arty Party. In 2005 I volunteered at a preschool nursery, while studying childcare&education. Qualifications: Little Ones Pediatric First Aid course (October 2017). Foundation Certificate in Montessori Pedagogy (Sep 06–Jun 07) at the Montessori Centre International. CACHE Level 2 in Pre-School Practice Introduction to Childcare (Jan 05-Jul 05), Southwark Adult Education.
