Hi there!
My name is Katie, I am 26 yrs old, Australian (with EU citizenship) and have just arrived back to London after an 8 month stint back home. I am available immediately and looking for a new wonderful family to join in the SW London area in a live out position.
I've been back a couple of months now and still haven't found my perfect match family, instead as it's summer and a busy time for everyone I've been able to organise my nanny program around the many families I have worked for previously, in a somewhat chaotic but entirely functional, book in, adhoc basis.
I've got the next couple of weeks booked in and I'll likely ride this wave until I do find my perfect match and thought I'd throw it out there to the universe with exactly what has worked really well for me in the past and I'd like to find again!
Basically I'm looking to work with a family for 2.5 (20-30) hrs per week on fairly set days each week but with a bit of flexibility and moving room (with plenty of notice and communication obviously) week to week.
I am a dancer/performer, children's dance teacher and also thinking of starting my own childrens based playgroups and parties with some ideas brewing so I've realised that working for a family who needs days set in stone for the unforseeable future, unfortunately won't work. The flexibility obviously works both ways and is something I've always been able to offer my families in abundance!
A bit about me:
I worked for two different families in my time back in Australia. One a family of 3 children (ages 2, 4, and 6) with busy varying programs, and the other a single parent family of a two year old, mum also with a growing at home beauty and yoga business whereby I acted as a personal assistant when bub was asleep.
I am a dance teacher (adults and children) and musical theatre performer. I am happy, energetic, positive, productive, and entirely enthusiastic about children. Growing up with a large extended family, I have been taking care of my own cousins from babies to teenagers my whole life.
During my previous time in London (2011-2013) I created my own work schedule of nannying for several families, up to 3 children at one time from newborn up to teens with varying schedules and programs.
Depending on the ages of the children, my days involve school runs, preparing all meals and snacks, activities including swimming, playgrounds, picnics, library visits, play dates and homework/pre-school preparation with letters, sounds, phonics and numbers, and bath and bed times and evening babysitting.
I generally handle light household duties such as the kids laundry, keeping toy rooms tidy, kitchen clearing after meals and general errands such as groceries etc.
I am putting the word out there to families in SW London that I am available 2-3 (flexible) days per week (20-30 hours) including possible adhoc hours/evening babysitting. That being said, I generally do have loads of flexibility, am very amiable to change as I am so aware that family life changes! often! If you sound like my perfect match, I am waiting to hear from you!
Cheers!
Katie
