I have 9 years experience working mostly with children aged 0 to 6 years old in childcare and as a nanny and babysitter. I have an interest and some experience in supporting children with disabilities. I’m big on creativity and imagination - I love engaging children in art, craft and music activities. I love books and storytelling. I love nature, being outdoors with children and activities like playgroups, library, events etc. I prefer to leave screen time for parents or if children are sick. I strongly believe in encouraging a growth mindset early on so children feel confident and capable in their abilities. I aim to foster independence and am very patient. I’m able to apply logical discipline and set safe boundaries. I enjoy free messy play with art or in the garden and encouraging children to help tidy up. I like organising play spaces so children can play independently and have easy access to resources and can easily enjoy tidying up because they know where everything belongs which helps them feel secure in their environment and fosters responsibility.
I’m more than happy to do laundry, light housework and meal prep for children. I’m vego but can serve meat if pre-prepared. I can run errands (groceries, post office etc.) though my first priority is making sure your children are happy and engaged in my care.
If I sound like the right fit for your family, please get in touch to discuss further. I look forward to hearing from you!

What parents love about me
Parents have said they love how much their little ones adore me, that they don't like leaving but at least they are with someone they enjoy being with. Parents have said I'm very thoughtful and they appreciate coming home to a tidy home. They love the activities I've set up and hearing about our outings. They love that I like making mess and cleaning it up after, so they don't have to.
What kids love about me
I have an animated personality, I sing a lot throughout the day and make up silly rhymes about what we're up to. I don't mind making mess and aim to make it fun as we tidy up. I allow children time and space to practice skills and take responsibility for themselves with my guidance which gives them a great sense of achievement and develops their confidence.
What I love about this work
I find caring for children extremely fulfilling for many reasons. I love everything about building relationships with children. I love that each day is different, I love watching children persevere and challenge themselves and I love laughing togeter. I love that my experience working with many different children of various ages and temperaments will inform my future parenting! I feel blessed.
