My Summary
About Me
-I am in the process of becoming a part time Ofsted Registered Childminder.
My name is Amanda, and I’m a qualified, Ofsted-registered professional nanny based in Bristol. I’m self-employed and currently work part time. With over 25 years of experience working with children, I’ve had the pleasure of supporting families in a variety of settings — including schools, preschools, forest school, nurseries, and through my own childminding business 7 years ago. I’m fortunate to have built strong relationships with many families over the years, and I’d be delighted to share my references when we meet.
I’m married and have two grown-up sons, as well as a lovely little dog named Daisy. I’ve lived in St George, near the Hanham border, for many years. I’m a kind, caring, and creative person who loves working with children of all ages. I’m always happy to lend a helping hand and provide a loving, supportive environment where every child feels safe and valued.
Supporting and encouraging each child’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being is at the heart of everything I do. I enjoy storytelling, playing games, arts and crafts, and spending time outdoors — I love all that nature has to offer. Whatever your child’s interests, I’m always keen to join in, share their enthusiasm, and help them learn and grow through play.
I know how important it is for parents to feel completely at ease when they’re away from their little ones. I offer peace of mind by providing a caring, responsive environment where children feel safe and happy. You can head off to work knowing your child is in good hands with a nanny who has many years of experience.
UPDATE:
I've now begun the process of becoming an Ofsted-Registered childminder, with the setting based in Hanham. While it's hard to say exactly how long the registration will take, I'm hoping to be up and running by late January or February 2026.
I’ll continue to update my profile as things move along, but if you’d like to find out more or join my waiting list, I’d love to hear from you!
My Experience
I have many years of experience working with children of all ages, as well as supporting individuals with a wide range of needs. Seven years ago, I ran my own successful childminding setting, and over the years I’ve worked in a variety of roles including support work, nurseries, schools, preschools, forest school, and community care. And of course, raising my two sons has been my proudest achievement of all!
As a nanny, I’ve had the pleasure of working with some wonderful families across Bristol. I currently provide care for three families on a regular basis, along with ad-hoc childcare. My role also includes light housekeeping tasks — I’m naturally tidy and always make sure the home and play areas are left clean and organised.

Mandy has been caring for our 1 year old daughter for several months now and we can't recommend her highly enough. She is lovely with our child, and makes a massive effort to provide high quality care for her. She is also lovely to spend time with and helpful around the house. She provided us with all the necessary paperwork before starting and some brilliant recommendations.
