About Lucy

26 years old Speaks English
Hi! I’m a 21 year old politics student with one year of experience working as an after-school nanny and babysitter alongside my studies. I began working for Koru Kids, a wonderful childcare agency in London that provided me with extensive nanny training including a first aid course and training on how to help and encourage children to learn. I’m staying in Brighton for the summer to see my family, and will he returning to London in September to continue university and caring for 3 lovely children aged 2, 4 and 7. I absolutely adore working with children, it has given me such a strong sense of purpose and happiness as I help them learn and grow as people. Recently I have been supporting one child through learning phonics and reading, and seeing his progress every day is so rewarding and makes me really proud. The children have described me as ‘kind, caring and fun’ which makes me feel incredibly happy and proud. I would describe myself as understanding and patient too, which I feel are the most important skills when working with children. In Brighton until mid September, my availability is very flexible and I’m happy to provide childcare during the day, and evening babysitting.
