About Me
VACANCY IN NANNY SHARE FROM OCTOBER. 4 DAYS. Based in West Norwood, sharing with primarily one 18 month old (siblings are 5 & 7 but will largely be at school or in clubs.) Space for a 1-4yr old in our lovely share. We usually alternate houses fortnightly. As the nanny is shared, childcare costs are significantly reduced but the children still benefit from the close attention, care and flexibility a nanny provides.
For the past year I've been very fortunate to return to a wonderful family I previously nannied with for 3years. Fortunately for me, they have had a third baby who is now 18 months. Once again, we’ve opted for a NANNY SHARE setup and it’s been fabulous for all 5 children (for all of us!) Our lovely other share family no longer need the hours as their youngest will start primary in September.
I’m a super creative and adventurous Ofsted Registered Nanny with a background in theatre & art. I have a genuine passion for education through play and love finding out what makes children tick and following their interests. Excellent references and 20yrs + experience working with children. Proud mama of my lovely 11yo daughter.
Hear what my clients have to say:
‘Our only sadness in leaving London is that we can’t take Kate with us! I can't imagine anyone kinder, more fun and more reliable than Kate.’

‘One of Kate’s strengths is her fantastic capacity as a self-starter. Kate was absolutely confident in deciding on and arranging activities, trips and groups that she knew the children would enjoy. These varied immensely but include trips to museums and galleries, mudlarking on the Thames, farms, trains, woodland adventures, aerial circus school, as well as regular local groups.’
SE27
‘Kate took time to help Fin learn important life skills and was encouraging, fun and patient at every step. I was always impressed by the care and time she took time to find out about his different developmental stages. If there were challenges with behaviour, we always felt supported by her kind, no-nonsense approach.’
SE23
‘Kate is mature, thoughtful and tremendously sensitive to the needs of others. She often anticipates our needs before we are aware of them. We trust Kate completely and would recommend her to anyone.’
SE23
‘Kate is one of the most artistic and thoughtful people we know. She has a fabulous way of bringing children into art. We call her the 'grand artista' as she has been a wonderful teacher & caregiver of my 11 & 8 year old daughters for years. Kate has most definitely inspired my girls' creative thinking and their zeal for art.’

My Experience
I adore children of all ages. I'm a calm, friendly Aussie who's lived in London for almost 20yrs, where I’ve worked both as a nanny and creative arts facilitator for children. Playful, adventurous and well organised, I work with initiative and am respectful, firm and kind. Ofsted Reg, DBS checked and level 2 childcare certificate.
I love working all over SE London and getting to know & help so many families. Some of our favourite things to do have been; exploring new playgrounds, playgroups, regular trips to London's amazing museums and galleries, forest school, daily art sessions, beach trips, train rides and softplay.
My work history also includes extensive backstage experience in wigs and wardrobe in the West End. I have taught children & young adults at drama schools as well as leading Art workshops & classes for children aged 1-16.

Kate is an excellent childcare provider. She is punctual and she was very good at keeping children entertained.
