I’m looking for a job where I can help out a family with some nannying! I have experience caring for children in a wide variety of ages spanning from 1 year old to 13 years old. Over the years, I have been a trusted go-to babysitter for numerous families and within my extended family.

Additionally, I have experience previously as a short-term nanny for a gorgeous 1-year-old little girl. During my time with her, I handled nappy changes, prepared bottles as well as put her down for naps. I genuinely enjoy kids and entertaining them with engaging activities such as arts and crafts, board games and baking creating a fun and stimulating environment for them! In addition to my childcare skills, I also am more than happy to help with light household tasks, including laundry, grocery shopping/running errands, unpacking the dishwasher and general everyday cleaning, tasks which I have successfully managed in previous roles! I also have my licence and a car which i am willing to use if required.
