My Summary
About Me
Dear Parents
I am an experienced OFSTED registered British Nanny living in Queen's Park with a solid employment history for 17+ years. I am warm and friendly with a genuine love of children and babies - I typically arrange stimulating activities, fun classes and play-dates for the children I enjoy cooking and preparing fresh, healthy meals for the children in my care.
I have studied linguistics and have genuine interest about life and its dynamics and children. I enjoy spending my time with them and observing their development. I have 14 years of experience on looking after children (newborn to teenagers) in different positions (all related to home based child-care) and I must say 'I love my job'. I can provide entertaining activities for all ages and keep up with families/children’s busy schedule.
I like reading, writing, travelling, photographing, walking, cooking etc., I am also interested in social sciences, literature, history, cinema, architecture, generally visual arts etc. All my hobbies are a big part of my life and I mostly do and experience those all with children.
I am very easy going, hard working, experienced in working with families from different culture, fun and energetic, enthusiastic, loving and caring, responsible, reliable, flexible, good humoured, proactive and creative. As well as my child-care duties, I am also happy to do child-related housework, cleaning, laundry and ironing.
Hobbies and Interests
My interests include theatre, film, swimming, reading, ballet (still doing) , Jive dancing and photography. I love the outdoors; I am a professional kayaker and have worked in my family’s ‘Adventure Holiday’ business back home in Turkey.
I enjoy regular jogging and keeping fit. I ran London Flora Marathon on 26th of April to raise money for the charity, Help The Aged. I hope my fundraising efforts helped to provide practica l support for disadvantaged older people.
