About Me

Hello! I was born and raised in London and I'm a professional nanny and experienced primary school teacher. I went to Oxford for my undergrad to study art (I love all things creative) and now am training to be an art therapist.

I have childcare experience with babies through to teens, and have extensive training in child development and primary education.

I am a responsible, kind, creative, caring, hardworking, reliable, friendly person with a can-do attitude and a genuine love of working with children. I have excellent verbal and written communication skills and I always aim to provide a nurturing, safe and stimulating environment for all ages to develop and thrive.

I have great references and an up to date enhanced DBS.

My Experience

Since graduating in 2017 from Oxford Uni, I have been working with children for most of my professional career both as a nanny and within school settings in different areas of London.

I was a Year 1 Class Teacher and Art Specialist at a pre-preparatory school for 3-7 year olds. There, I planned and delivered a range of lessons following the KS1-KS2 curriculum framework, preparing them for 7+ assessments. I was lucky to work in a fairly small school, and therefore was privileged to get to know each and every child individually, across the different year groups.

I also worked for a year as a teaching assistant, supporting learning from nursery to Year 6 but spent a large majority of time working in the nursery, which I really enjoyed.

In amongst teaching, I have been a sole care nanny for 5 families over the years (age ranges between 16 months - 14 years old).

I have also worked as a teacher in a few summer schools over the years teaching English and Art and running my own classes.

I am a firm believer in maintaining clear, open dialogue with parents/caregivers in order to achieve the best emotional and educational development of every child in my care.
