Hello there! My name is Blu and I'm a nanny living in Nether Edge in Sheffield.
| I am a caring and patient nanny with a huge interest in adapting my childcare approaches to parent's requirements. I am currently a Personal Care Assistant for various young people. I have worked with many children over the last five years, with age ranges between 6 months and 11 years. I have cared for children within 5 families and the experience I have gained from these has been very varied. Including cooking meals, going on walks and general housework, my work focuses around general nanny work. Throughout this I have cared for children with a very large variety of mental and physical disabilities, which I was thoroughly prepared for post my volunteer work at Bettridge SEN school. I wish to continue building my experience in order to find a future working with children. If you would like references, my CV or to discuss anything please do just drop me a message :)
