My Summary
About Me
Hi, I am an NVQ level 3 qualified Nanny and CRB checked with nearly 14 years childcare experience.
I'm 31 years old, married and live in Dereham. I’m currently having some time at home with our beautiful daughter after recently moving to the area.
I am happy, outgoing and enthusiastic.
I love traveling, being outdoors, cooking and going back home to visit my family.
I have a full clean drivers licence and my own car.
My Experience
Having always wanted to work with children I started my childcare career in a nursery where I stayed for 5 years. I worked my way up to become a room leader and a senior nursery nurse. My experience covers babies up to primary school age. It was during my time at the nursery that I qualified with an NVQ childcare level 3. I also attended many other courses and have gained numerous certificates. (Please see below).
I decided I would like to have a more personal relationship with children and began a Nanny role. My first family were in Cambridge, it was a 4 day a week role which lasted until the child went to school.
I then nannied for a family in central Cambridge, 3 days a week, with children aged 5 and 2. This role was more involved, school runs, cooking, keeping the children entertained with a variety of indoor and outdoor activities appropriate to the age and stage of development. This job came to an end when the family moved away.
I nannied for a family in Lincoln full time, looking after 3 year old twins and a 2 year old, in this role I worked variable hours. I planned day to day activities ranging from painting and baking to going out on various adventures. I prepared meals, help with shopping and perform odd jobs round the house including children’s washing, sorting rooms and toys etc. I also did childminder runs, bath times and bed times regularly.
I nannied for a family in central Cambridge, 4 days a week with children aged 3 and 5. I planned activities daily, especially craft based as the children loved arts and crafts. We went on regular outings, meet up with other children for play dates and did lots of imaginary play. I also did school runs and prepare family meals occasionally.
With two of the families I have also done overnight stays when the parents have gone away with work.

Paige has been with us for nearly 2 years, looking after our 3 and 5 year old, 4 days a week, 8.30am-5.30pm. Due to circumstances regarding our work, we are unable to keep Paige on....otherwise we would have kept her for as long as we could. We are so sad that she is having to leave us.
Paige has cared for our two children with utter commitment and a heartfelt interest in their lives. She is endlessly patient, unfailingly positive (always inspiring to see when you have two toddlers in the fray) and always filled with imaginative stories and the energy to play-whether that means kicking a football or colouring in mermaids. Both my children ADORE her. It is wonderful to see them run to her when she arrives every morning, bursting with stories of important things that need to tell her. Paige is very good at understanding the emotional tenor of little children: she always notices when it is time to calm the mood down with stories and quiet play, or when it's time to burn off some energies with a scoot before tea time.
Paige is good at planning ahead for fun activities for the kids, taking them out for days to Wimpole and also trying to find friends for them to play with during the holidays etc. She's very conscientious about consulting me before trying anything new and I am always 100% aware of what they are doing (and how much fun they are always having). She listens well and always goes above and beyond if I ask her to prepare meals or run an errand. She never gives the impression that she wants to be somewhere else (even at 5,30pm!) which is a rare delight. There has never been a moment when I have not been glad that she has been part of our family.
I could not recommend Paige more highly. I am happy to provide further information if needed.
