I have over 25 years experience as a sole charge nanny and I have cared for children from 6 weeks old to 7 years old including twins, nanny shares and proxy parenting roles which also required me to manage the household. I especially adore babies and love being a part of their development and watching them grow and explore the world around them. I have a calm, child centered approach and although I will actively encourage and support your child to reach their development milestones I will not push them as I believe all children are individual and develop in their own time. I'm a good cook and as children reach the weaning stage I have always preferred to cook all their meals from scratch to ensure they receive fresh, healthy food. I have spent the past four years travelling and teaching ESOL abroad so I do not currently have a DBS but I am happy for any future employer to procure one. I am currently staying with friends while I seek work so I am available immediately and happy to take on ad hoc/ emergency work if you are within walking distance.. I am also happy to consider a temporary position. I do not drive.
