My Summary

My Experience

From a young age I would always be asked by family and friends to babysit their children which has all allowed me to decide on my future career working with children. From an even younger age I was always the one at gatherings that would look after and entertain the younger children.
Whilst gaining my qualification I worked as part of my placement in a variety of settings ranging from birth to 5 years. These settings include a baby centre, both private and state nursery settings each of these settings has given me something to strive for or a different experience and joy in the field that I love. A quite different area that I also have experience in is the school setting specifically year one, which I thoroughly enjoyed but did miss being able to give my full attention to a smaller group of children.
Once qualified I had the privilege to go abroad and work with children ranging from 4 months all the way through to 17 years old. I have been able to achieve this by working both summer and winter seasons. My summer months were spent working in Messini, Greece and Baia de Mori, Sardinia for Neilson Active Holidays as part of their kid’s club staff. Here is where I worked in the ‘starfish’ group who catered for children aged 4months to 23months. But also helped when needed with the other groups who catered from 2 years to 17 years. In my winter season I worked for VIP SKI as a private chalet nanny in Val d’Isere. In this environment I was based in the family’s chalet for children from age 4months up to 12 years. within this role I was required to take and collect the children from ski school provide a healthy and nutritious meal for lunch I would then entertain them for the rest of the day that the parents had booked me for. This could include taking them back to ski school if that were booked or if they were younger, I would take them to soft play or the farm. I would also arrange to meet up with some of the other nannies that I worked with if we had similar age children. Since completing my seasons’, I have worked as a nanny as part of the Asquith Nannies team, working in both the family home and a local Asquith nursery setting. This meant that I was required to adapt between the policies and procedures for the nursery and the home setting and the Nannies team policies and procedures. I have for the past two years have worked at a private nursery as deputy manager so fully understand the need for organise and structure. I have also been a live in private nanny to a family or four; including all the things you may need relating to childcare in the family home and supporting the families individual needs. I also have very high standards of cleanliness and organisation that will ensure that the children’s toys and games are kept clean especially in the current climate.
