About Me

Hi! I am a 38 year old living in the Broadfields/Wonford area of Exeter with my two dogs. I love being around people of all ages and especially love taking care of children! I also enjoy cooking and baking (I'm a bit of a Masterchef addict!), photography, craft of all kinds and I also run, am always meaning to start yoga and read every book I can get my hands on! I love colours and fun and enjoy making those around me laugh :)

My Experience

For 2 1/2 years I worked for a Mother who had three children. The little boy I was primarily responsible for was 14 months old when I started, but I helped with the care of all three children. This position included housework, shopping and help with the older two's schoolwork, although my main focus was on the boy I looked after.
Over the years I have been a helper at 2 different mother and toddler groups and a couple of toddler music groups. I currently help at a forest school toddler group and spend a lot of time with my two little god daughters.
I worked for 3 months as a live-out nanny for a family with three children, aged 6, 3 and a newborn.
I have also done a lot of babysitting, looking after ages 3 months to 13 years old, including my 2 goddaughters, who I regularly babysat and took to the park!
For over a year I worked for an international family with 2 girls. They were 3 months and 4 when I started and it was a joy to watch them grow and develop. My job was mainly looking after the baby, but I also looked after both of them at the same time. I stopped working with the family when they moved out of the UK..

For 18 months I have been worked for a family with two adorable children. The boy was aged 2 and the girl 9 months, when I started. Duties included everyday care of the two children, park trips, bus adventures, potty training, baking, endless lego building and lots of craft and paint!

For 6 months I worked for two families, both with 2 children under 4. As long as two schedules can be balanced, I am very comfortable with this sort of arrangement and am also open to facilitating combined childcare for you and another family.

For nearly 2 yeas, up until lockdown happened, I worked for a lovely family with a - now 4 and a half year old boy and a 2 year old girl. My duties included light house work, taking the baby to groups and pre school drop offs and pick ups.

I am a qualified counselor, so although it is not a viable primary source of income at this time, I will bring a lot of empathy and a non-judgmental approach to my work.

I am looking for a part or full time position as a nanny/mother's help/nanny-housekeeper. I hope I can help you with your childcare needs and can contribute to your family functioning at its best!

My Qualifications

I have around 18 years of childcare experience in a variety of capacities.

I am available to start work immediately.

I am looking for a full or part time position. Days can be flexible, to meet your needs.
