My Summary
About Me
Hi, I am Hollie. A 35 year old, fully qualified Ofsted registered nanny, with over 10+ years experience. Looking to join a family in Bristol/Somerset area.
I have chosen a career in Childcare because I have a passion when communicating and interacting with children both hearing and deaf.
I am a responsible, emotionally mature and well-mannered nanny, with a great deal of commitment and enthusiasm when promoting a child’s physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. I use kind and gentle positive reinforcement to help maximise a child’s holistic development. I am a polite, confident child carer who is able to work under pressure with a great level of experience in doing so.
I see great importance in developing a close relationship with both child(ren) and families to ensure continuity of care.
My Experience
I usually work as a nanny long term, with the potential to offer short term care, as well as adhoc and occasional evening childcare.
I offer night nannying to help with sleep training, parents wanting some undisturbed sleep or, to help care for child(ren) when unwell.
I am regularly booked for weddings and events where childcare is needed.
I also offer these services at my own home, typically for nurses or other professions that work long night shifts or for parents wanting to attend events, weekends away or holidays.
I have experience in three Nursery settings, as well as a teaching assistant role in a Nursery and Primary School for Deaf Children. I have cared for babies and young children up to age of 14 and find all ages to be rewarding and enjoyable to care for.
My DBS is up to date and i am apart of the Disclosure and Barring Service Update Service, which allows you to see my certificate on the government website.
I am paediatric first aid trained with a full, clean UK driving license.
When working long term for families I ask that my families contribute 5% of my monthly wages, in to my pensions scheme.
I also charge an additional £1.50ph when caring for additional siblings.
Nanny shares with other households can be discussed between parties.
Over night and weekend childcare to be discussed between us.
I commute for work in and around Bristol & Somerset.

Hollie was our children's nanny for 9 months, though she primarily cared for our 1yo daughter. We cannot speak highly enough of the warmth, energy, and professionalism she brought to our home every day.
Hollie was consistently proactive in ensuring the children were engaged and stimulated. She organised regular trips to local playgroups and different activities, and frequently planned special day trips further afield, treating the children to fun and educational outings. Our children were always excited to see her and returned from their adventures happy.
Hollie was a phenomenal support in the kitchen, a huge bonus for our busy family. The children loved her cooking, often requesting her meals over our own! We particularly appreciated her thoughtfulness in preparing batch meals.
Hollie approached her role with a natural empathy and foresight that comes from being a mother herself. It was immediately clear that she understood children's needs, handling everything from daily routines to minor issues with gentle authority and confidence. A testament to her nurturing character was the wonderful relationship she shares with her own daughter, Meadow, who sometimes joined the children. Their positive dynamic was lovely to witness and always reinforced our complete confidence in Hollie's care.

We literally cannot praise Hollie enough. From the time that she walked through our front door and met our little ones she was a huge hit both with them and us! She is kind and caring and so very authentic. She is exceptionally child led and had the most amazing level of understanding with both our children. Our youngest being just under 2 was reaching the boundary pushing stage and Hollie dealt with him in a fantastic manner, providing him with understanding for his age, coupled with positive reinforcement; whilst showing a holistic approach. We absolutely loved the time that Hollie spent with our family and would recommend her so many times over. We hope that our timings align again in the future to work with Hollie as she was a great addition to our family!

Where to begin, Hollie was exactly as she described herself and more. Hollie was an absolute dream Nanny for us. Hollie looked after our two small boys aged 18 months and 3 years for 6 weeks, 2 day a week over the summer. The boys adored Hollie and felt safe with her. Hollie was always on time, professional, kind and positive. She would always go the extra mile too from working late to help us put, bathing the children and getting them ready for bed. Hollie even helped out around the house and would make the boys healthy lunch boxes each morning.
We felt completely at ease with her. Hollie educated the children with kindness, manners and was firm but fare (which is essential with two brothers!) and extremely patient.
Hollie would take the boys out for the whole day across Bristol, it was always a fun new adventure, from parks, softplay, splash parks, playgroups, aquariums to museums. Hollie would even send us photos and messages throughout the day.
We would highly recommend Hollie and only hope and pray she is available for us again next summer. Thank you Hollie xx
