About Me
I'm Kerry and I live in Marston Moretaine with my partner and two boys (8&5)
Working with children has been a passion of mine since I was young. It was all I ever wanted to do. Children are such intricate beings with a great curiosity and I've always relished being able to participate and guide them whilst they discover the world in a fun and hands on way.
I make learning fun and engaging and will be offering lots of activities/outings etc whilst also allowing the child(ren) to feel like they're coming to a home away from home.
My Experience
I have worked professionally with children aged between 0-8 years for over 20 years, with an additional 4 years prior to that as a babysitter.
I have had various different childcare roles over the years. I started out in a private nursery at 18, followed by being a childminders assistant; then I was a mothers help for a short time. Most of my experience has predominantly been through being a sole charge live-out Nanny with various different families. This was an area of childcare that I thoroughly enjoyed, doing it for well over 13 years.
