About Me

Update - Not currently looking for work.

Thank you for looking at my profile!

My name is Sarah, I'm 37 and living in Southwick.

I recently had my own baby and am now starting to look for a part-time role as my maternity leave will be coming to an end soon.

UPDATE - I will be dropping my daughter off at my parents house in West Worthing (I'm in Southwick) so something in Worthing or that direction would be ideal. I'm looking for full days rather than before or after school positions.

I'm a professional, highly experienced nanny and love looking after children!

I love being outside in the sunshine (weather permitting!) and enjoy playdates, parks and baby groups.

I trained at Sheen Montessori Nursery in Richmond, London. The Montessori approach still has a special place in my heart.

I have up to date DBS and first aid. I have also been Ofsted registered in the past for previous families and happy to do this again if you require it.

I have over 9 years' experience as a sole-charge nanny and 5 years' experience working in private Montessori nurseries and pre-schools. I most recently worked at Shoreham College Pre-School.

I have looked after children from newborn to 6 years of age. I have experience of looking after more than one child sole-charge.

I have worked as a nanny in London and the Brighton area.

I'm still in touch with all my previous families and love catching up with the children, even if it does make me feel very old!

I have an NVQ Level 3 in childcare and various Montessori courses.

I have excellent references from my previous 4 families and nursery managers.

Experienced in baby-led weaning, potty training, establishing routine and gentle sleep training.

I'm a clean and tidy person and always clean up after myself when looking after the children.

Happy to take on nursery duties, light housework and run errands. Typical duties include: loading and unloading dishwasher, post office trips, children's laundry, unpacking online food shop, picking up dry cleaning, purchasing birthday cards and presents for children's parties and replenishing fridge/cupboards with essentials.

I have also taken children for hair cuts, shoe shopping and to see the family GP when they have been unwell.

I am educated to post graduate level with a degree in history so very able to support homework. Excellent understanding of EYFS, phonics and various reading trees. Also very creative. I paint in my spare time and have an Etsy shop!

I am also a keen cook and able to prepare healthy meals from scratch.

Driver with own car. No points etc.

Thanks for reading, I'm aware it's rather long.

Please send me a message if this sounds like a good fit.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Sarah
