Hello! My name is Lucy (30) and I am originally from England. I have been working as a nanny in Melbourne for 7 years and I have permanent residency. We have recently relocated to Ocean Grove from Carlton.
I have a little girl who is 2 in May and I nanny at my home alongside her.
Thank you for taking the time to view my profile, here is a little about myself.
Experience: 2013-2015: I spent some time travelling Australia before I settled in Melbourne. I then nannied temporarily for 15 month old twins (boy and girl from 7 months). At this time I also took care of 3 young boys aged 4, 7 and newborn.
When the families needs changed, I nannied for a 2 year old girl and her newborn sister for 12 months.
Gaining experience, I loved watching and teaching the children in their development at this time and we built close relationships which have continued throughout the years.
We enjoyed parks, music, storytime and the toy library.
2015 - 2019: Care for two boys.
I started with this family when their first born was 6 months old. Soon after, his little brother came and I cared for them both until the boys began kinder.
I frequently took them to the zoo, museum, parks, play dates and story time.
Whilst educating the boys through play, music, creative activities, cooking and reading, it has been a privilege to watch and be such a big part of their development & family life.
2020-2021 I ran a family daycare with my little girl. 2 children ages 1-2 would come weekly. We had great fun and it was lovely watching the children build relationships and grow together.
What makes me a great nanny:
I have such passion for looking after, teaching and being creative with both babies and children. Caring for little ones comes naturally to me: Confidently, I am attentive and cater to their needs, I am responsive to their mood, and I enjoy the interaction of one on one play. I am a happy, positive and warm individual who has a lot of love and care to give. Always energetic I love walking and taking the little ones out in their pram to run around at the park.
I provide a safe and fun environment which I believe is vital. It is also essential to understand the daily routine and requirements of the child, and respect what the parents wishes are. Importantly, I do this well and give attention to detail. I also have knowledge and experience on settling techniques.
I am a career nanny who is motivated, patient, caring, as well as creative, fun loving, gentle and friendly. Always smiling, I am a reliable, trustworthy and experienced nanny who always has a 'can do' attitude. I am efficient and take initiative too, so I am happy to help with any other duties necessary to keep the smooth running of your family household.
In my spare time I enjoy the outdoors, keeping fit and exploring. My husband and I love weekends away, finding new places to enjoy.
