5+ years experienced Italian Nanny
| Hello families. As a nanny and babysitter, I have 5+ years of experience caring for children of all ages, from new born to teens. I'm currently a nanny for a family with two fantastic kids (1yo and 3 yo), I'm looking for a position from June as the dad will stop working and he will be at home with the kids. In my previous role as before and after school nanny to a busy family of 3 children, I learnt how difficult it can be manage the varying needs of children in diverse stages of development. I improved the ability to care for each child individually, while paying close attention to the needs of the group. I am committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment for the children in my care. I'm from Italy and I'm happy to help your children to learn or to improve this language. I take safety extremely seriously and had a first aid certificate. I studied at on line child care course with diploma and an online early years course with certificate. Happy to give you references. I'm Ofsted registered and in possession of DBS check (both Italian and English). I would love to speak with you personally about your family's needs. Please don't hesitate to contact me by phone or by email. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Absolutely lovely! Very punctual, kind, helpful and flexible! We love her to bits. After only a week my toddler was saying he preferred to stay with Erika than with Daddy!!!! I would 200% recommend!"
