My Summary
About Me
Hi, my name is Andrea.
I’ve been working with children (0-17 years) in nurseries, primary schools, secondary schools, ACE schools and as a nanny for the last eight years. Watching ‘little caterpillars turning into butterflies’ became my passion – all the ‘wow moments’ when children’s eyes sparkle are worth living. I always see a glass half full.
My setting:
• Unfortunately, I do not offer school pick-ups or drop-offs at the moment.
• Everyday outings, i.e.: library visits, nature walks, playgrounds, playgroups, café, etc.
• Child-led approach with some planned activities – children will learn through play.
• We will enjoy jumping in puddles, climbing trees, listening to stories and using our imagination in pretend play.
• We will also go to a café for a treat and to learn manners.
• Working in close partnership with parents
• Safe, worm and loving home-to-home environment
• I accept all Government funding, vouchers and tax-free childcare.
• Hourly rate (£9/h) is all-inclusive; outings, nappies, food and snacks are included. (price change - lower when caring for siblings or long hours).

Degree in Psychology (undergraduate) and in Education (postgraduate), teaching assistant level 2 and 3, First Aid, Food and Hygiene, Safeguarding up to date.
