My Summary
Highly Experienced Nanny / Babysitter
About Me
I am a qualified primary school teacher with many years' experience in childcare for early years. After working for over six years as an Ofsted registered childminder, we relocated in South Somerset. I have successful, consistent experience in childcare of children aged 2 months to 11 years old. Before childminding, I had worked as an after school nanny and before that I had a small English language school abroad.
At the moment I have availability on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. I am also available for babysitting on weekends.
Enabling children's development and
I offer working in partnership with parents to provide the most attentive care catered to children's needs and interests . I enjoy motivating children to grow and learn, creating a happy and safe environment, whether indoors or outside. I provide a range of engaging activities based on the children's interest. I am keen on the Montessori approach to learning. Since I have knowledge of the National Curriculum, I also offer tutoring and help with homework and home schooling to primary school-age children.
My Experience
I was an Ofsted Registered Childminder until 2018, when I decided to gain experience in schools as a Teaching Assistant. I am now a qualified primary school teacher with solid experience in early years' children. I also have a BA degree in Education from the University of Worcester.
I have over 20 years’ experience in working with children of various ages as a school tutor abroad. I have training in early years development and a thorough understanding of their needs according to their age. References upon request.
