My Summary
About Me
I am a confident and reliable nanny with 30 years experience and have worked with a variety of different age groups (babies, toddlers, children up to 10 years old). Additionally, I have also worked in a nanny share and I have also worked with twins. I am also an OCN accredited Sleep Trainer. I love to take a proactive role in the children’s development, helping them to learn and grow, enabling them to become confident and independent. Among the many things I enjoy about being a nanny is organising the children’s days with different activities from cooking and arts/crafts at home to getting the children involved in different clubs and planning educational day trips. This provides me with a great sense of job satisfaction. After spending 24 years in London, I relocated back to Yorkshire to be closer to my family.
