I'm ready to become an exceptional part-time nanny for your family. I have immediate availability and can work flexible hours, primarily in the middle of a day and evenings, seven days a week. I'm proud of my First Aid and CPR certifications, along with my high school graduation. As the youngest of six children, I've been surrounded by a large family my whole life. In fact, I am the loving aunt of six nieces and nephews ranging from 1 to 9 years old, one of whom has severe disabilities. This longstanding familiarity with children has honed my ability to handle kids at any age, be it newborns or those in their early schooldays. As a highly engaged nanny, I love planning days out and entertaining the kids. But I'm all about balance and making sure all aspects of household life run smoothly. I'm a firm believer in cleanliness and organization, and find joy in housekeeping and cleaning tasks. My duties can extend from bathing and dressing kids, helping with homework, adhering to special dietary rules to running errands and grocery shopping. I can also take care of house pets and supervise other household staff if required. Important to note, I'm comfortable working as a live-out nanny. Ideally, I'd like to work with a family with up to two children, and I am very skilled in managing children of various ages. Whether you're looking for a babysitter, childminder, nanny, nanny/housekeeper, or mother's helper, I fit the bill! Let's discuss how I can provide the best care for your children - reach out to me at your earliest convenience. I don’t have any work experience however I’m the youngest of six meaning I have 6 gorgeous nieces and nephews that I regularly look after and take on days out they are aged from 1 to 9 so I’ve been around a variety of ages of children for plenty of years.

I'm Chloe, a 21-year-old law student from Blandford Forum with a hands-on experience of 3 year in nannying. I am not only equipped with professional experience but also my personal experience of looking after my own siblings who have special needs. This has enabled me to become particularly skilled in providing special care. I am available from Monday to Friday, covering mornings, mid-day, and evenings to suit the varied needs of your family. I'm ready to commence work immediately and I'm open to Part-Time roles that cater to live-out arrangements. Being versatile in my approach, I have effectively worked with children of various age groups from toddlers of 1-2 years old right through to teens. Although my preference is to work with up to three children, I'm devoted enough to help them with homework, plan and organize events, uphold any special dietary requirements, and maintain cleanliness in their environment. In addition to my High School graduation, my educational background in law has allowed me to develop a strong sense of responsibility, adaptability and problem-solving skills, which I believe are vital when attending to the needs of children. Whether you're searching for a Babysitter, Childminder, Special Needs Nanny, or even a Virtual Babysitter, you can trust that I will bring dedication, warmth, and compassionate care to your home. I have experience in working with children from ages 5-13 years . I did my work experience in a local primary school and also attended college and have a level one certificate in childcare .

Childminder Rates in Blandford Forum

Typical listed hourly rates range from £11 to £14. Before arranging care, confirm whether the quoted fee is per child and whether meals, school pick-ups and other extras are included. Discuss minimum booked hours, holiday charges and payment terms so you can compare the total cost for your family’s schedule.

What to Ask Before Choosing a Childminder?

Ask where childcare takes place, which ages the childminder accepts and whether places are available for your preferred days. Check registration with Ofsted or a childminder agency, and ask about paediatric first aid, references and relevant checks. Visit the setting with your child and discuss daily routines, school collections, settling-in sessions and how you will receive updates.
