Childcare in Wiltshire

| My name is Jade and I have a level 3 qualification in childcare and am currently undertaking a degree in Youth and Childhood Studies. I've worked in various nurseries in Bath as a nursery nurse, mobile creche's as a crèche leader and also as a private self employed nanny locally. I'm now a registered childminder. I currently have 3 beautiful boys of my own. I have home educated as well as flexi-schooled so am open to various educational philosophies. I am more than happy to cater for home educated children or those who also flexi-school. I absolutely adore watching children develop and grow and being apart of that special time. I have SEN experience, in particular with children on the spectrum, learning difficulties and with speech delays. I know some basic Makaton from personal use but am aiming to undertake a foundation course to cement that knowledge. I have experience with using PECS, visual time tables and now/next etc. If your child has any additional needs please contact me and we can work together to see if we would be a good fit for each other. We thrive in the outdoors so love lots of out door adventures and activities. The wellie boots go on whatever the weather and off we go for an adventure in the woods or elsewhere. We are definitely outdoorsy people! I am aiming to take childminded children from January (pending certificates). I will be limited to 2 under 5's places per day, which I expect to be snapped up quite quickly. I offer contracted care as well as adhoc and PAYG care.

| I am enthusiastic about child care and have been working in Early Years for 7 years. I have worked in pre-schools and Nurseries at a senior level and have Special Educational needs qualifications. I currently hold a level three diploma in child care and a level three in special educational needs coordination. I hold a variety of qualifications, including First Aid, Child protection and Mental health first aider. I am trained in trauma informed practice and am qualified in 5 to thrive and promoting positive behaviour, which allows me to support children to recognise and cope with their emotions as they grow and develop. I have worked closely with families over the years providing wrap around care, inclduing school pick up and drop off, preparing and cooking meals and preparing children for bed. I love adventures and enjoy taking children on days out to build memories and experiences. I have experience of working with babies up until early school.

| Hello, I’m Hannah a nanny previously working live in with 3 young children, and most recently caring for a baby from 3 months old. I have 3 younger brothers which is where my passion for childcare began. I started working in care at 15 and I have personal and professional experience from the very beginning of life, until the very end.

| I have just finished my second year at Norland Nanny College. I have had many years of childcare experience ranging from newborn to teenagers. I started helping my Mum look after my 3 younger sisters at the age of 12 as she became a single parent. My sisters were then 9 months, 3 and 10 years old. I have continued to help her and have gained many skills (including a great deal of patience!) along the way. This then lead me to Nanny after School and at weekends for local families. I also did various work experience placements at a local Nursery and at a Primary School with Years 1 and 4. Receiving a place at Norland college is my biggest achievement so far. I gained many skills including cooking nutritional and balanced healthy meals for children of all ages including those with dietary needs, bottle feeding, weaning and the introduction of finger foods. I have learnt fun and safe ways for bathing, changing nappies, health and safety and first aid. My two years at Norland also gave me life time friends and experiences and I will forever be grateful for that. I have a full clean driving license and am DBS checked.
