I am a 27 year old Vet from Brazil, working for child care in the Uk and loving it!
| I am a very happy, kind and bubbly person, I love to be outdoors, so will be taking your child in lots of adventures! I am very patient, organized and reliable. I have experience with all age groups, including newborns. In Brazil I worked in a Canadian school for infant education where my age group varied from 2 to 4 years old. I also worked as an English teacher in private schools in Brazil varying from 6 years old to adults. I worked as a nanny for my aunty, where I lived with her, from day 1, first baths, first baby food, getting her baby off breast feeding to sleeping at night by herself, she was a very demanding child so gave me lots of experience on how to deal with demanding babies. In Edinburgh I have worked at a nursery in Brunstfield for a couple of years floating between rooms, babies, tweenies and toddlers so I have lots of experience with nursery rhymes, making age appropriate activities, setting routines, encouraging your child to learn and to be independent.

Nanny with 15 years childcare experience looking forward to the next chapter.
| I was a self employed childminder for 14 years. I started Valley Childminding with a friend in October 2007 as we wanted to work for ourselves. Due to health reasons with my business partner we closed the business in April 2020. I'm a hard worker who loves working with children it's all I wanted to do since I was at school and I want to stay in childcare as I feel that's where I belong. Due to my childminding career I have plenty ideas for activities, not afraid to get messy, go out in outings, cook meals and do some housework when necessary. I live near the Western General hospital but cause I don’t drive I would either have to get public transport to your house or walk if possible. Will be starting lessons when it's safe to do so. Due to the pandemic I had to give up my last nanny job due to the uncertainty of the virus & the parents working from home. I currently work in retail but obviousy want to get back in to childcare as that's where my passion lies.

Female Nanny/Carer - 26 years old - Experienced working with disabilities - Fully vaccinated
| I am an experienced nanny/carer living in Leith and I am able to travel to the surrounding areas. I have several years of experience caring for children of all ages and abilities. I have just completed my qualification as an Art Psychotherapist and my placements have involved working with children in school/community settings and with those who have additional support needs. In 2019, I cared for a young individual with complex physical and cognitive disabilities and stayed in this role for two years. This required full personal assistance, supporting her with school learning, thinking up activities to add variety to the week and looking after her two younger siblings at times. I have experience running children's parties in a ceramic studio and working with young ones to do hand and foot prints onto the ceramics. Additionally, I am registered with Disclosure Scotland for working with children and vulnerable adults. I have been fully vaccinated for coronavirus due to my previous university placement within the NHS. I have a full driver's licence and am happy to travel, although I currently do not have my own car. I am fully available during the day and evenings, other than Sundays when I work in a ceramic's studio.

Super fun, flexible and responsible nanny in Stockbridge
| I am a 23 year old postgraduate student looking for a part-time role as a nanny alongside my studies. I absolutely love kids, having two younger sisters aged 5 and 11. I am originally from Manchester, but now live permanently in Stockbridge after studying at the University of Edinburgh for the past four years. After my Mum passed away in 2016, I had to step up to the role of full-time carer for my younger sisters for 5 months, while my Stepdad returned to work. They were 1 and 7 at the time, so I have lots of experience in looking after these ages. This involved cooking, cleaning and keeping them entertained with fun activities, such as arts and crafts and baking. I have also worked with a company called Fun Scientists, which involved teaching young kids (age 5-6) about science through fun, interactive classes. I am therefore an expert in slime and other fun science-y activities. I am looking for a part-time role (10-20 hours a week) with some flexibility in the hours I do. On Mondays and Tuesdays I have uni classes, so I am not available until 4pm, while on Wednesday I look after a lovely two-year-old boy until 3pm. Other than that, I’m free whenever needed. I hope you will consider me :)

I love taking children swimming, setting up play dates and social outings as well as doing fun learning activities taking into account each child's interests. My whole working life had been centered around childcare, until four years ago where I had taken a break from childcare to experience a different field of work.

I recently completed a PhD in English Literature and am now looking for part-time nannying work to go along with my other part-time job as a university English Literature Tutor. I am responsible and reliable and I have over 10 years' experience. I have continuously worked as a nanny to help pay for my education, and it is a fun and rewarding job. I am a friendly, enthusiastic, and caring nanny and I especially love to read, write, play and sing music, and do arts and crafts with children. I am trained in CPR, First Aid, and water rescue and I am also fluent in French. My most recent posts were for two different families before and during my MA programme. The first was as a nanny for two little girls, who were 2 and 4 at the time. I watched the children at their home and worked 12-hour days since both parents worked full-time. I can provide an email address for this family as they’d be happy to serve as a reference. The second and most recent nannying post was as a nanny for a family with three sons, aged 5, 13, and 15 at the time, and I worked 10-hour days. I can provide an email address for this family as well.
