My Summary
About Me
No longer available.
I am a self employed nanny currently living in Ashford, Kent. I am looking for a new weekday role and I am also happy to take on temporary roles in and around Kent. I am very flexible, I also offer additional weekend, evening and overnight childcare.
I am a friendly, reliable, active, vegetarian 31 year old nanny that has a passion for working with children. I have been working with children for almost 14 years and have been working as a sole charge nanny for over 11 years. I can be flexible on hours and I am willing to travel. I have newborn experience, special needs experience and twin experience. I am self-employed. I have my own car with business insurance and have a full, clean driving license, public liability insurance and I have a clean, up to date DBS on the update service. I am pediatric first aid trained and trained in anaphylaxis shock. I have a Level 2 NVQ & BTEC in childcare. I also a have a Level 3 personal training diploma and I have recently completed a SEN Teaching Assistant course. I can also provide glowing references from previous and current employers.
I am a reliable, patient and caring lady that provides a stimulating and safe environment for children. I enjoy my career as a nanny and I enjoy learning through play with a range of activities with the children I care for including; messy play, cooking, storytelling, creative play, games, imaginative play, singing songs, arts and crafts, etc
Also providing educational and fun activities preparing children for and supporting them through school and working on the national EYFS & KS curriculums. This includes; numbers, letters, shapes, colours, reading, writing, homework, projects etc. I also enjoy going on outings to places like; the park, duck pond, playgroups, library, farms, zoos, soft plays, playdates, swimming, beach days, nature walks, theme parks, London tourism days and anything else your child may take an interest in. I’m always happy to take a child’s lead in what interests them and encourage exploration, independence and trying new things. I can provide school drop offs and pick ups either by foot or by car. I am a well spoken, talkative role model who can talk and listen just as well. I ensure the emotional and physical wellbeing of all the children I care for, I strive to keep them safe and happy and to always be a gentle teacher in guiding them through the stages of development in their childhood.

We have used Stacey to help with our 3 week new born and had a great experience. Stacey was quick to settle our baby to sleep and helped with bathing our baby. She also provided good advice to help us improve our baby sleeping area. We wont hesitate to contact Stacey anytime we need her service.

Stacey has helped out with babysitting our 2 year old son, getting him ready for nursery in the mornings and picking him up in the evenings when we haven't been able to do so ourselves. She is absolutely wonderful and I would recommend her to anyone. She is patient and warm towards our little boy, who adores her. She is also completely professional, she takes her role seriously arrives precisely on time and her experience with children shines through. Practically perfect in every way :-)

Stacey helped our family as a mother’s help and nanny for a couple of weeks when my little one was 2 weeks old. She was a perfect balance between blending in with the family household and bringing her own expertise, learnt a few top tips from her!
Stacey was great at looking after the baby as well as keeping the house going (laundry, washing up, general tidying, food prep) and lunch prep for my 2.5 year old toddler’s nursery. On Thursday she also had my toddler, who took to her really easily.
Stacey took initiative to keep busy and was really efficient, she got a lot done in a day. I especially appreciated Stacey’s company; her calm and friendly demeanour made her really easy to get along with and I trusted her with my newborn from day 1.
Her help meant that we could transition to a family of 4 in a relaxed and enjoyable way, thanks Stacey!

Stacey joined us us looking after our 2 children for a couple of weeks during lockdown and was so helpful! My 6 & 8 year old took to her immediately, and they were always excited for her to arrive. Stacey helped them with their school work, and was firm but fair with any difficult behaviour! We were really glad to have found Stacey and we would recommend her.

Stacey currently looks after our (demanding) four year old girl and (cheeky) one year old boy every Friday. She's friendly, reliable and very patient with the two children even if my daughter has effectively corralled her into making cakes every time Stacey comes over. What makes Stacey stand out as a nanny for us is how much she enjoys playing with the children meaning that they look forward to seeing her even though she comes only once a week and they respond well to her. A couple of times we have asked Stacey to babysit in the evening in addition to her normal hours and by having someone the kids are comfortable with (and will happily go to bed for) it has meant we have had peace of mind and have been able to enjoy a proper evening out. Would definitely recommend.
