I have worked as a Nanny both here and overseas in the UK for a duration of 10 years. I seem to have a natural rapport with babies and young children, probably because I adore them. I did this up until I had my own family. The ages of the children range from birth to 12 years. Part of those experiences; I had the privilege of supporting a Mum with her twin girls from birth to 6 months. I am the mother of 2 children, Adam now 23 and Lucy 20.
I currently work for a family in Pottsville with a darling 2 year old and a witty 8 year old. I have been with them 2 days per week all this year. Due to their situation changing, my hours will reduce in 2024.
Previously I have worked for the Education Dept for 4 years as a classroom assistant. This was amazing experience working with these young minds with quirky personalities, encouraging them to learn and grow. Finding the balance of guiding them and prompting their own ideas and problem solving.
I still enjoy the simple but important things about mothering and running a household; like simply being there, listening, validating a child's experience, playing, being creative, encouraging their creative skills and minds, right through to efficiently running a home, providing wholesome meals, including children in the cooking experience and the importance of feeding themselves well.
