nal Profile I am 26 years old and have recently moved to Crawley Down at the beginning of April 2017. I am a fun, caring, loyal and highly motivated in all areas of my life. I take great pride in my work and find nothing more rewarding than seeing the children in my care happy and healthy. I have a wealth of knowledge and experience with ages groups ranging from 3months to 10 years old and have a NVQ level 3 in childcare and development. I am very passionate about my role as a childcare worker and love to watch children develop and grow through their own learning and experience. I enjoy getting messy with paint and malleable play, reading stories, taking the children to varies classes and activities and playing outside in all weather conditions. I began working with children when I was 17 years old, working as an apprentice in a nursery. I completed my NVQ there and then worked my way to becoming a senior member of staff. Since than I have worked in other nurseries, extending and developing my knowledge and skills. In January 2016 I began working as a sole charge nanny for a lovely family, caring for two little girls. I loved working with this family and was extremely sad to leave them, but due to relocating I was unable to stay with them. Since being back in the Crawley area I have been working in a nursery setting while I look for the perfect, long term nanny role. I thoroughly enjoy working with children of all ages and love doing this on a one to one basis, building stronger relationships with the children and their parents. I hold a full, clean driving licence and have done for the past 8 years. I also own my own car which I am happy to use for work. I am not currently ofstead registered but would be happy to do so for the right family. Experience: Nanny for 2 lovely little girls who are now 2 and 4 years old.

At my current nannying position there is no need for me to use my car as everything is in walking distance or easily reached on the bus. There is also only permit parking near the family's home. During the school holidays I do bring my car so we can go to places that are a bit further a field, such as farms, the aquarium and zoos. I would be more than happy to use my car daily to take the children to school or activities.
