My Summary

My Experience

Hi Parents :) I have looked after children as a profession for 15 years now, for the last 11 years this has been through the Childcare website.

I've worked for 2 years in a Private nursery with children from newborn to 4 years old and before having children I was a full time sole-charge nanny for many families longterm in Shepherds Bush until I started having my own children.

I now live in Mitcham, bordering on Colliers Wood and I have 3 children of my own. They are all at school all week from 8:30am-4pm, which leaves me at home with no one to care for! I’m hoping to take on 1 or 2 kids on a weekly basis, this can be from 7am-11pm (my children love company and my husband is very used to having children around).

I adore children. I always have, I have ample patience for them and enjoy being with them. I like to keep children busy and learning, some of the things I loved to do as a nanny and now as a mum are painting, playing with play-doh, drawing, using building blocks, spelling tests, maths tests, writing short fun books and making cupcakes. I’m a great believer in cooking from scratch whenever possible and provide kids a variety of meals from stir-fries and roast dinners to fajitas and paella’s. My home has ample toys to keep children busy and plenty of space, plus a big garden for when the weather is nice.

We are a family who believes in love and respect, we are multicultural and respect and embrace all cultures.

I have a degree in Sociology with modules in psychology and anthropology, but my greatest love and strength is the English language and Literature. I’m currently going through the process of becoming a Registered Childminder but as this will take another couple of months I wanted to start putting out feelers for any local families who may need help. More than happy for you to come and meet me and my family, and find out your children will be in the safest environment possible. Do get into contact if you’d like to meet or have any questions.
