Meet Zuzana: A nanny and babysitter in Melbourne, VIC

Hello, my name is Zuzana and I am 46 years old. I have over 25 years of child care experience gained in private homes, nursery schools, government schools, Childcare centres, Before and After School Clubs, playgroups and children’s home. I have worked with several families, with children aged from 12 weeks up to 14 years old. I worked as a nanny in London for 7 years for the same family. This helped me to gain experience with children from newborns up to 14 years old.

I gained NVQ Level 2 and 3 in Year Years and childcare in London. I then moved to the West Midlands where I worked for local government schools including a Special Needs School. While I was working at the Special Needs school I also studied with The Open University where I gained Level 4 Certificate in Early Years Practice. (Diploma in Children's Services)

In 2008 my husband and I moved to Australia where I worked as part-time Teaching Assistant and Team Leader (Mon – Wed) for Before and After School care in a Catholic School where I have worked for the last 4 years. I also work as live out part-time nanny.

For the last 8 years I have worked as nanny/tutor in Hong Kong.

I enjoy cycling, swimming, skiing, camping, yoga, craft, reading, gardening and travelling. In my spare time I love making handmade cards as well as inventing new recipes. Regards Zuzana Harris
