My name is Farah from Salford and I am a lively, warmhearted and responsible 17-year-old who is passionate about contributing positively to the lives of children and their families. Despite not having formal nanny experience, don't let that deter you. This is due to my unique experience as the middle child of a sizeable family. I have 6 siblings, with two older and 4 younger ones. My youngest sibling is 11 so I've naturally assumed the role of a caregiver for my younger ones over the years. Possessing a kind heart and a great sense of humor, I adore making people laugh and forging a good rapport with children. With me, your children will have fun playing creative board games and discussing their favorite YouTubers and TV shows. Beyond fun, I'm equally excellent at carrying out housework. If you require assistance with chores, errands and homework, or need someone to manage pet care or general tidying, rest assured I am not only willing but also highly capable. I am available for part-time employment preferably live-out, particularly during the middle of the day on Fridays and Saturdays. You can expect rest of mind knowing I am attentive to the needs of children within the age bracket of 6-9 and over 10 years. I am comfortable managing a maximum of two children at a time. Educationally, I have successfully graduated from high school and open to start working with your family immediately. Whether it's a Babysitter, Childminder or Nanny/Housekeeper position, I'm eager to contribute my enthusiastic and caring nature to ensure a pleasant and enjoyable environment for your children. I have 4 siblings that are younger than me, and i’ve cared for them many times when my parents were away. I can clean after them, do activities and always give help when needed

I am a caring and responsible nursing student with a strong interest in child wellbeing, safety, and development. Through my healthcare training, I have developed excellent skills in observation, communication, safeguarding, and first aid, which I apply confidently when caring for children of all ages. I come from a close, supportive family background, which has shaped my nurturing, patient, and reliable approach to childcare. I understand the importance of creating a safe, calm, and positive environment where children feel secure and supported. In my free time, I enjoy listening to music, reading novels, and watching movies. These interests allow me to engage children in age-appropriate activities such as storytelling, quiet reading time, music, and relaxed creative play. I am also happy to support homework, bedtime routines, and daily structure. I am trustworthy, attentive, and organised, with a warm personality that helps children feel comfortable quickly. Parents can feel confident knowing their children are cared for by someone who is safety-conscious, compassionate, and dependable, with professional healthcare training and a genuine love for working with children. I have been a babysitter all my life as the youngest child with older siblings and a close knitted family filled with aunts and uncles with lots of younger cousins, I often find myself in charge of my younger cousins or nieces and nephews going out or at home while the adults are at work or on a trip and I often get paid or get a gift which explains why my closet is too full. Family friends knows I am the queen sitter as I have been dubbed by my family and I often find myself minding 3-6 children at a time but working officially a maximum of 2-3 children would be more ideal. I have a Bachelors degree and I am currently an international student studying Mental Health Nursing (M.Sc).

My name is Sarah and I am a 25-year-old originally from Belfast, Northern Ireland. I recently relocated to Trafford, Manchester following a three-and-a-half-year stint in Sydney, Australia. Having discovered my passion for working with children during my role at a daycare in a 2-year old room during the Covid pandemic, I am ready and excited to extend my experience, dedicating myself fully to a career in early childcare. In Australia, I had the opportunity to work with an amazing family, furthering my love for nurturing and teaching children. I realized that this was my path in life and I am now actively seeking to pursue a degree in Early Education and build a fulfilling career in this field. In addition to my love for working with children, I am also a passionate cook and a dedicated reader. I believe in staying curious and engaging in a world with countless opportunities for learning. In my downtime, you can often find me exploring new recipes, learning about new cultures and ideas, attending concerts, or simply enjoying quality time with friends. I believe in fostering creativity and curiosity and aim to bring this outlook in my role as a caregiver. When it comes to availability, I can offer flexibility through the entire week, including morning, mid-day, evening and night shifts on Monday-Friday. I am open to both Full-Time and Part-Time roles, including as a Nanny, Nanny/Housekeeper, Mother's Helper or Babysitter. I am prepared to undertake various duties including children's meal preparation, homework assistance, maintaining cleanliness in the house, running errands and offering pet care. I can comfortably handle up to four or more children of various ages, from newborn to 9 years, and I am comfortable working with children with disabilities. I envision myself not just as a nanny, but as a part of your children's upbringing, being a supportive and positive influence in their lives. Aiming to start as soon as 15.09.2025, I am very eager to find a family who shares my enthusiasm for interactive learning, creativity, and overall growth. I look forward to the possibility of working with you! I have three years of experience as a live-out nanny in Sydney, Australia, caring for three children aged 0–7. I provided sole-charge care, managing daily routines such as meal preparation, dressing, homework support, and organising fun, educational activities to encourage learning, creativity, and social development. As the youngest was born while I was working with the family, I have extensive newborn experience including helping to implement healthy sleep patterns and bottle feeding. I also maintained a clean and tidy home environment by handling necessary household tasks and focused on fostering positive behaviour, supporting the children’s overall growth, and building strong, trusting relationships with both the children and their parents.
