Hi, im kerry, 28, living in the countryside just outside Leitholm. I have a 6 month old daughter.
| My name is Kerry, I am 28 years old and live in the countryside with my 6 month old daughter and our dog Alfie! I am qualified in SVQ level 3 childcare and education and have over 9 years experience working with children. I got my first childcare job within a local nursery in which I became assistant nursery nurse caring for children from the age of 2 - 13 years. My roles within the nursery were organizing activities and playing with/educating the children, preparing snacks and meal times, going on outings, school pick up/drop off and much more! I was with the nursery for just over 2 years. I then became a nanny for a local family caring for 2 children then aged 2 years and newborn. My roles were similar to the nursery as well as doing overnight stays and travelling within the UK with the family. I hold a full UK driving license and I'm a non-smoker.
