My Summary
About Me
Hello Mums and Dads, I am available to start immediately and am eager to assist with your childcare needs.
As a compassionate and patient mother of two girls, aged 7 and 10, I bring a wealth of personal experience to childcare. My background as a part-time Interior Designer offers flexibility, allowing me to dedicate time to nurturing and educating children. I am committed to fostering a safe and enriching environment for your family.
I have a strong interest in nutrition and enjoy preparing diverse, healthy meals. My creativity, honed through design, enables me to engage children in imaginative activities. I am passionate about reading with children, using varied voices and expressions to make stories engaging. I believe in the importance of outdoor play and social interaction for children’s growth, and I would love to engage in activities like muddy play, where children can explore nature, get their hands dirty, and develop creativity and resilience. It's a fun way to encourage them to embrace the environment while learning through hands-on experiences.
In addition, I would ensure opportunities for the children to make new friends by attending various groups and activities such as playgroups, local classes, or community events. These experiences help children build social skills, practice sharing, and work on their communication. Whether it’s through group games, crafts, or simple interactions with peers, I’m committed to creating an environment where the children can grow socially, emotionally, and physically
In addition to caring for the children, I am more than happy to assist with light housework, such as tidying up, preparing meals, and organising. I believe in maintaining a clean and organized environment that supports the family’s daily routine and ensures everything runs smoothly.
While new to professional nannying, my hands-on experience as a mother has equipped me with valuable skills in child development and care. I am energetic, engaging, and dedicated to supporting children's growth. Additionally, I volunteer as a netball coach at my local school and serve as a Trustee for a charity supporting our community school.
My Experience
Although I am new to professional nannying, I have a wealth of experience as a mother of two young children. I’ve spent years managing daily routines, meal prep, and providing emotional support while encouraging their development. I am energetic, creative, and passionate about making learning fun, and I’m excited to bring my personal experience and enthusiasm for child development into a professional nannying role.
My Qualifications
Although I don’t have formal qualifications in childcare, I have extensive hands-on experience caring for my own children and have developed a strong understanding of their needs, routines, and emotional development.
My degree in neuroscience has given me a strong foundation in understanding how the brain works, which directly informs my knowledge of psychology and human behavior. Neuroscience helps explain how neurological processes influence emotions, learning, and development, which is critical when working with children. By understanding how the brain processes information, forms memories, and develops over time, I can approach childcare with a deeper understanding of how children think, feel, and behave at different stages of their development. This background allows me to recognize and support each child's unique needs in a way that encourages their cognitive and emotional growth.
