I have worked with children since leaving school in 2003. I started in private nurseries working for 8 years, including 2 years as a deputy manager in a 58 place nursery with a staff team of 14. I have a good rounded knowledge of child development and valuable skills from my expansive experience in the field of childcare. In 2011 I left nursery working to pursue a career as a private nanny which continues to be my main focus and something I thoroughly enjoy. I am fun, sociable, caring and calm with good basic cooking skills, a confident swimmer and hold a full clean driving license of 11 years. I'm a creative individual and love anything messy and crafty. Nannying is a passion of mine and I find it extremely rewarding to watch the children grow and thrive in my care.
