My Summary
About Me
Originally from France, I have 29 years combined experience of working in London and overseas, with babies as a maternity nanny and children as a nanny. Passionate about my work, I am knowledgeable and dedicated. A natural educator with children, I enjoy contributing on bringing up well balanced beings and always ensure optimal development for them.
My rich experience with children allows me to be at ease with any age – experienced with implementing a well-structured routine, stimulating activities and weaning for babies; potty training, sourcing and planning fun and creative activities for toddlers; organising parties for young kids; sorting out uniforms, being in charge of school dairies, monitoring homework and coordinating social life for older children.
I am responsive, warm and caring – without being over protective – in order to encourage emotional confidence and independence. I can be firm when needed but fair and consistent. I am a true believer in routine which provides a safe and secure environment for children.
I have a friendly, enthusiastic and confident personality; I am also reliable, ultra organised, and diligent. I have a pro-active nature and believe to be fun to be around!
Key skills.
- setting up a solid feeding and sleeping routine.
- providing a comprehensive level of gentle and professional support in all aspects of newborn care.
- stimulating and encouraging bilingual speech development for babies and toddlers.
- weaning, cooking and planning nutritious and varied menus.
- creating and delivering activities for the complete development of the children.
- liaising with parents regarding every detail of their children's care.
