PERSONAL STATEMENT
If you require a nanny or childcare assistant with outstanding childcare skills, then I am the employee for you. I am a warm, lively and efficient person who is not shy of hard work. My common sense, bubbly personality and dedication always shine through in any job. Being a huge fan of old fashion values – such as installing politeness and manners, I am also loyal and kind. This coupled with being an active nanny who enjoys keeping the children entertained with unlimited activities, reading, baking, messy play, walks and games, means that the children are always happy to be around me.
During my previous years of childcare, I have tried to gain extra qualifications enabling me to be ready for any situation that may arise, whether it is a medical emergency or dealing with a typical toddler tantrum! From working in nurseries and traveling to many countries, I have a well rounded knowledge of different cultures enabling me to relate well to any child.

MODERN MONTESSORI NURSERY – NURSERY NURSE
Working in the Montessori Room with children aged between 2 and 5 years of age, I was required to set up and create activities which were age appropriate for the children following the E.Y.F.S curriculum including writing observations and lessons for their developmental needs. There was always plenty of activity, so my basic skills were tested to the limit – singing, reading stories, baking, coordination games and outside activities. I also had key children who needed special one to one reading attention to help them enjoy books.
JANUARY 2005 – DECEMBER 2007

This was my very first childcare position (excluding babysitting) which enabled me to learn many aspects of childcare development, with many ages. Originally starting as a Nursery Assistant, I worked my way up to nursery nurse which meant that I initially worked with very young children aged from 6 months upwards, later moving to the upper floor to work with the older children.
