I am an experienced Early Years Educator with nearly eight years in childcare, working with children from as young as three months old. I am passionate about supporting children’s development through nurturing, engaging, and age-appropriate care. I have previously held a Room Lead position, which strengthened my leadership and organisational skills, before returning to a practitioner role to focus on hands-on work with children. Alongside my nursery experience, I also provide ad hoc nannying and babysitting, caring for children in a variety of settings including family homes and events. This has made me highly adaptable, reliable, and confident in creating a safe, calm, and fun environment wherever I work. I live with my partner, Jack, and our two dogs, Remy and Alfie. In my spare time, I enjoy music and reading, and I have a particular love for Disney. I have visited Walt Disney World in Orlando six times and Disneyland Paris twice, and I enjoy travelling with my partner and exploring new places whenever I can. I am friendly, approachable, and dependable, with a patient and caring nature. I take pride in building strong relationships with both children and families, and I strive to create a warm, supportive environment where children feel safe, happy, and confident to grow. I have nearly eight years of experience working as an Early Years Educator, supporting children’s development from as young as three months through to early childhood. During this time, I have built strong, responsive relationships with children and families while delivering engaging, age-appropriate learning experiences. I was previously promoted to a Room Lead position, where I took on additional responsibilities including overseeing daily routines, supporting colleagues, and ensuring high standards of care and education. I later chose to return to a practitioner role, allowing me to focus more directly on working with children and supporting their individual development. Alongside my nursery experience, I also undertake ad hoc nannying and babysitting. This includes providing care in a variety of settings, such as an upcoming wedding in May where I will be responsible for children for an extended period of 23.5 hours. These roles have strengthened my adaptability, reliability, and ability to create a safe, nurturing environment in different situations. Overall, my experience has given me a strong understanding of child development across all early years stages, along with the flexibility and confidence to support children’s needs in both structured and informal settings.

In describing myself, I am an immensely knowledgeable and rigorously punctual individual. I genuinely possess an immense passion for nurturing children, finding immense joy in devoting energy towards their care and overall well-being. It's always been a pleasure of mine to take care of children. There's something quite fulfilling about being a part of their growth and development, and it fills me with so much happiness. Over the years, I've grown exceptionally open towards shouldering the responsibility of taking care of children, regardless of the circumstance or situation. This openness is fueled by the undeniable joy I garner from mere interactions with these young individuals, thus making it far from being a chore. Beyond providing regular child care, I also perceive myself to be versatile and capable of handling additional responsibilities. I have no complications or issues assisting with household chores. Cleaning, for instance, is something I readily engage in. I understand the importance of maintaining a clean, safe, and well-organized environment for the children, so I don't shy away from such duties. Moreover, I am also proficient enough to aid in preparing meals, thus extending my services to the boundaries of cooking. This involves ensuring that the food is not just palatable, but also nutritious enough to facilitate the healthy growth of the children I take care of. In addition, I am more than equipped to assist with homework, as educational growth forms an integral part of a child's development process. I believe my academic expertise and experience position me well to assist in this aspect effectively. Last but certainly not least, I am comfortable and enthusiastic about providing care to household pets as well, if required. My love for animals complements my passion for taking care of children, and I are more than happy to cater to their needs along with the children. Altogether, I am flexible, accommodating, and ever ready to offer my assistance wherever and whenever it is needed. I’ve always been around kids I’ve been taking care of two kids outside of my family also I’ve always been taking care of family friends kids siblings cousins
