My Summary
About Me
I am currently available for adhoc nanny and babysitting work.
I am a qualified and experienced Ofsted Registered nanny. I have twenty two years experience looking after multiple children, from newborn babies to teenagers in home settings, including Outstanding Ofsted rating whilst a Registered Childminder.
I am a warm, calm and caring person who is very organised with good communication skills and a sound knowledge of the Early Years Foundation Stage. I work in partnership with parents to provide the best care for their children, enabling them to become confident, happy and well-behaved children. I believe children learn and develop most effectively by having fun through play and exploration, outdoor experiences and socialisation.
I can accept childcare vouchers or payment through the tax free childcare scheme.
Excellent references available.

Below are the latest reviews for Liane. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk users and not of Childcare.co.uk. Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
It is our pleasure to wholeheartedly recommend Liane as a nanny. She has been looking after our two children (both under 5 at the start) with the utmost care and commitment for the last 20 months. We will miss her very much, as she is relocating shortly.
Liane’s main duties have been focused on the children and have included getting them ready for and taking them to school/pre-school, cooking nutritious meals and batch cooking for the freezer, taking our youngest to toddler groups and playdates, planning a variety of fun outings for them both during school holidays, as well as arts & crafts, baking, and other activities. Liane has also helped with regular laundry, food shopping, packing away the family’s online food shopping orders, tidying and cleaning toys.
Liane has a wealth of experience in childcare, and she is always available to give sound advice. Liane is extremely reliable, trustworthy, and punctual, and she communicates extremely well, updating us on what the children have been up to and notifying us of any concerns. Her approach is organized, mature, and conscientious and she sets clear boundaries with the children. She has taken our children on a wide variety of outings which they have thoroughly enjoyed and is particularly inventive with arts and crafts projects and creative play when at home. Liane is very thoughtful and always asking what else she can do to help.
Both our children are confident, happy and caring little people and we genuinely believe Liane has played an active role in this. It is incredibly reassuring that we have been able to go to work and not had to worry about them.

Liane has looked after our daughter for the last two years. She has been very reliable throughout that period and flexible when needed. Our daughter is extremely fond of Liane and enjoys all the activities that she organises, with lots of crafts and fun outdoors. Everything has a clear focus around the Early Years Foundation Stages which helps us monitor her development. We feel very confident leaving our daughter with Liane, knowing she is well qualified to care for her and seeing our daughter happy, growing in confidence and well behaved.

Liane has been caring for my little boy 4 days a week since he was 9 months old and he has just turned 3. I have always been very happy with the care that Liane has provided. She provides a warm, safe and friendly home. She is reliable and flexible - I don't think she has had a day off sick since I have known her.
Liane provides a wide range of activities, both in the home and out and about in the local area. She has an in depth knowledge of early years development and has closely monitored my sons progress, providing him the right opportunities and stimulus to develop.
It is with a great deal of sadness that my son will be finishing with Liane at the end of April and it is only because I am starting maternity leave again ????. We will be staying in close contact and will see her and the friends my son has made with her at the local groups and events.
I would recommend Liane to any one wanting reliable, homely, educational and great value childcare.

Liane has looked after my son, Jack, since he was 13 months old for two days a week and I’ve been extremely happy with the care he has received there. He’s always well looked after, cared for, well fed and comes home tired after a day of fun and socialising with his friends. The facilities at Liane’s home are really warm and welcoming and Jack settled in immediately, which was a relief for me. Every day Liane provides an activity sheet of what they’ve been up to, which I find really helpful. Liane provides a well balanced week of interesting activities for the children – which might include visits to toddler groups, farms, country parks and soft play – all kinds of places. They also do a lot of creative activities, like making things to bring home. Often the activities are associated with a theme, like a colour or a season. When they’re doing more relaxed activities at home, she has a whole range of educational, age appropriate toys and books. Jack always eats really well at Liane’s; healthy home cooked food. Jack has learnt a lot in Liane’s care – from socialising, to tidying up, to how to put his coat on himself. Overall, I thoroughly recommend Liane as a childminder. Jack has been happy and well looked after in her care.
