I love working and looking after children and have been doing so since I was 16 years old. I have 3 brothers and 2 sisters who are all younger than me and range from ages 8-23. We love to go on family day trips together when we can and like to go for walks to see lakes and nature. 3 of my siblings do swimming lessons so on a Saturday morning I will take them and watch them when they do competitions. I live at home with my mum, step dad and 3 of my siblings. I am a driver and have a clean license as well as 4 years of experience. I am the eldest of 7 children so I have always had experience with being around children of many ages and babysitting from when I was 15 years old. I worked in a nursery from when I was 17-20 then began my job as a support worker for young adults that are 16+. I babysit regularly for my neighbours and often take them on day trips with my siblings too. level 3 health and social care training level 3 working with children and young people

I love the outdoors and going to gym classes. Hi, I am a fun, organised and patient nanny looking for my next long-term role where I can become an extension of your family and take an active, caring and fun role in your child’s life. I would also love to travel with a family and I am open to live-in on a temp basis. I am also available for ad-hoc babysitting. I have recently completed a Level 4 maternity nurse training course with “Babyem” and looking forward to apply what I have learnt into my roles. I take a gentle/respectful approach to nannying and love exploring and learning through nature with children, helping to nurture their curiosity about the world. I like to support children's imagination and cognitive skills through a lot of open ended activities such as water play, arts and crafts and play dough. Socialisation is also a massive part of childcare for me so l'm always out and about with the children taking them to music classes, messy play groups, the library, swimming, soft play, farm parks, the space centre and garden centres. This gives the children an opportunity to interact with children and adults of all ages in various environments, improving their communication and social skills, empathy and independence. I love cooking and getting children involved in creating healthy well balanced meals. I am keen to teach the children what goes into their meals / where the food comes from. Cooking with the children also encourages them try new foods and feel proud of something they have. I also do alot of batch cooking and often have left overs for parents! I am skilled in performing arts and also fluent in British Sign Language and more than willing to teach this to any children I look after or communicate with any hard of hearing/profoundly deaf clients. Send me a message on WhatsApp and I can send over my nanny portfolio which explains more about me and my nanny approach:)

Hello! My name is Bella, a dedicated and energetic living in loughborough. I am currently striving towards my Bachelor's degree in Biological Science at Loughborough University. As a highly academic individual with strong A-level results, I also value the importance of balance which I have acheived through engaging in various sporting activities. With over two years of experience working with children from 3 to over 10 years, I have developed a knack for childcare, coaching netball, hockey and tennis at Superports camps, and even hosting parties! Being part of a large family has nurtured responsibility in me from a young age, honing my time management skills to balance various activities as well. On top of this, I have undertaken the role of family cook, always adjusting meals to suit everyone's schedules. It comes as no surprise then that in a child caretaker role, I am not only able to assist in homework but am also more than capable of doing light housekeeping, preparing meals, transporting children and even caring for pets. Given my flexible academic schedule, I am available part-time, particularly in the mornings and middays every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, and during middays and evenings every Monday and Thursday. I am eager to start immediately and am comfortable in a live-out arrangement. While I am best equipped to deal with two children, I am able to adapt accordingly to your family's needs. Please note, my expertise also includes having been trained in First Aid, a crucial skillset when it comes to ensuring safety at all times. Rest assured, your little ones will be in safe, responsible and loving hands when they are with me. I am looking forward to potentially serving you as your babysitter, helping your family in all the ways I can. I have worked with kids since 16 as a coach at sports camps, leading grouos of 5- 20 children ranging from ages 4 - 14. I also regularly babysit for my cousins who are 5 and 11, taking them to and from school, helping them with homework and also taking them to sporting events

During this period of time I was a nanny to a busy family with 3 children aged 9, 11 and, 16. The responsibilities include, getting children up and ready for school, making them breakfast, doing the school runs/ drops to bus stops. In addition, keeping their rooms and and tidy, washing, folding and putting away all the children’s laundry. Furthermore, picking the children up after school, ensuring they have snacks and are getting homework done. On various days the children have many clubs , and I ensure they get to their clubs on time with everything they need. Additional responsibilities include preparing the children healthy, but fun dinners enjoy and ensuring they follow a nightly routine. The children’s parents regularly work away for up to 3 , which then means I have sole responsibility of all 3 children, and house keep including locking up the house, feeding the dogs etc. I also help out the mother and running errands such as the food shop, grabbing any bits and Bob they may need but can’t get themselves because of their busy work schedule. Taking back returns to post offices and posting and letters is also a role I help out on. This Family didn’t have a cleaner until about January this year, so before I was helping out with light housekeeping including changing beds, dusting, hoovering and mopping etc. Reason for leaving: I was living in with a family about a hour away from my hometown. So I wanted to leave so have more of a social life and to spend more time with friends and family July 2023- January 2024 Live out nanny/ housekeeper During this period of time I was a live out nanny to a family of 3 children aged 4, 10 and 13. The responsibilities included, making the kids pack lunches, walking the children to school. Coming back to do some housekeeping such as, daily hoovering, putting away dishes, filling the dishwasher. General tidying around. Laundry, drying putting away, ironing kids school clothes . Weekly duties included cleaning all the , changing all the bedsheets, general tidying of children’s rooms. Hoovering, dusting, moping the floors. Occasionally helping put away the food shop. Then collecting the children from school. One of the children owns a pony so I would help muck out the stable and stuff the hay nets and bring the pony in from the field. Then going back home making sure the kids have dinner and is tidy upon return of their dad. Reason for leaving : Wasn’t my choice to leave, the dad of the family decided I was no longer needed as he had the opportunity to work from home and be with the kids more often. So I was let go/ laid off on good terms.
