My Experience
I am looking for a family that Is willing for my daughter to occasionally come to work with me or a part time position that I can work around her.
I have previously nannied for a family of two children, in which was a lovely family unit to be part of. The children were 1.5 years and 3.5 years old. I looked after them on a weekly basis and was also available for adhoc days and babysitting evenings too.
I took the children to outdoor days out such as the farm, strawberry picking and also park visits. We also enjoyed indoor activities too.
I planned each week to include different activities, as part of the day I made lunch for them and was responsible for preparing basic meals for dinner.
Whilst working within the family I took one of the children to school and picked up when old enough and did bath time and carried out bedtime routine, for when the parents arrived home.
I have also nannied and babysat for serveral families age ranging from 6 months to 11 years old and have experience within different environments but am very committed to working to each families expectations.

Growing up I have helped bring up my two cousins who I cared for on a weekly basis by taking them swimming, visiting different places on days out as well as babysitting them over night and dropping them to and from school when needed.
I also do regular babysitting at weekends and evenings caring for regular children from babies of 3 months up to 11 years of age.

We have had the pleasure of Sharna looking after our 14mth old both in the day and evenings. She is reliable, respectful and has good attention to detail, finally she is a very good communicator. Our little one just adores her and always has lots of fun. I would not hesitate reccomending her services.

Sharna
From day one of meeting Sharna, her passion for caring for children was evident. Like every mum who is leaving their precious child with someone for the day I'd always had anxiety about handing my daughters over and heading off. To say Sharna helped with this process is an understatement. Not only was Sharna able to read the emotions in My kids and think on her feet about how to best settle them, but she was also able to read my feelings and instil the confidence in me that I needed to leave and face my day or evening.
As well as wanting to make each child she cares for have a fun, fulfilled time - she also makes a real effort to get to know each individual child and celebrate what makes them great. Sharna is thoughtful and skilled about how she supports children in their development.
As you can tell we think very highly of Sharna, and wish her success and happiness in everything she does.
