About Me

Hi, I am 30 years old, i am one of five children, all of my siblings were younger than me. Throughout my childhood i had to care for my siblings whilst my mum and dad went out to work.

From the year 2013 - 2014 at the age of 23, I cared for my younger brother for a short while. I really enjoyed doing this at this time, I found that caring became so natural to me - I then made the decision to became a full-time carer. I wanted to transfer the skills i had gained from my own personal life experiences, and put them into practice.

I would describe myself as a caring, compassionate individual, i know a lot about the care system and really take pride in my work and what i do. Although i already have four years experience, i am keen to develop my skills and take on new challenges. Hence why I am wanting to gain experience in nanny work.

My Experience

My first care role was at the Derby Royal hospital, where i worked as a bank nurse on a variety of wards, these included mental health, elderly, and pediatric wards. After this i then went on to work in a residential home working as a Health Care Assistant.

I came away from adult care after 1 year, and began working with children and young people in 2015. I worked in a five bedroom children's home. The children's home was a self harm home, this role involved dealing with children and young people with emotional and behavioural difficulties. During my time here i built positive relationships with the young people, and was able to manage their behaviours successfully.

Alongside this, i worked at various other children's homes. The children were ASD diagnosed and on the autistic spectrum. I did this to gain a wide range of experience, i particularly enjoyed travelling to different homes, as each day was so different to the next.

My most recent role involved supporting young people aged 16-18. These children were homeless or had left a previous residential setting due to age, or other complex circumstances. We provided them with a service which encouraged independent living skills. All our young people were supported to health appointments, education and training was also strongly promoted.

Nanny experience -I have looked after children of all ages. Youngest 17 months. Oldest 13 years. Please contact me for any further questions you may have.Thank you
