Summary

I am a highly experienced nanny who specialises in providing quality care for children aged 0-13, while also providing comprehensive household management (shopping, cooking, laundry, errands and cleaning related to childcare) for busy families. Currently part time however am looking to explore a new career path part time.


I am interested in extending my knowledge of animal care and their everyday wellbeing. I have two dogs and two cats of my own who are much loved members of my family.
