My Summary
About Me
I am a conscientious and caring childcare professional who has been in the childcare industry for 9 years. I am experienced in dealing with children from 6 months to 5 years in a highly regulated environment, requiring various mental, physical and psychological needs including autism.
I am currently working as a nanny locally, but from September I will be available on Mondays and Tuesdays during the term time. I am also available in the evenings and weekends.
I have an Extended Diploma in Children's Play, Learning and Development, DBS checked, first aid trained, and undertake regular training, such as safeguarding. I am an organised and creative person, and enjoy planning activities for children to support their development and interests.
I have a full driver's licence and own my own car. I am an animal lover, owning my own cat Simba, so I am comfortable working with pet households.
My Experience
I have experience working with children under 5 years, and currently I am based in a 2-3 years room. I have experience working with children with additional needs. I believe patience and effective communication is important to make sure children are receiving the best care. I have experience working in leadership roles as a room leader. My main duties entail:
• Applying strict time management and staff monitoring to ensure relevant children’s ‘rooms’ are running smoothly and in line with health and safety and all regulatory guidelines.
• Within the space of 2 months I have successfully ensued that the children (aged 2-3) are disciplined in their own self-care.
• Accountable for the planning and execution of weekly activity planning for ages 2-3, including consideration of special needs such as autism and ADHD.
• Created an organised paperwork system to ensure that all relevant paperwork is completed to standard, such as welfare charts, 2-year checks.
• Building secure bonds with children and parents/ care givers to ensure effective communication for optimum care.
• Keeping parents and care givers appraised at all times of children’s activities and meals through verbal, written and photographic updates.
