'About Me...'

I am a mature, organised, loving and hard working mother of two high school aged children. I ran a very organised household as well as worked as a full time chef in the last few years. I have reached a stage in my life where cooking no longer fulfils my passion for working and therefore I have decided to change my career. I have always loved looking after my own children as well as other family’s
children and have done a very good job. I have decided to pursue a career as a nanny because I think I have a great deal to offer a young family starting out. I have experienced raising children first hand.

I am offering a nanny service to you to take care of your children and look after them as if they were my own. I am fully aware of the responsibilities involved in raising children and tending to their needs. I want you to feel confident and happy that your children are in safe hands.

I began my working life as a nanny while living in America for a few years. I was a sole carer of a newborn boy for a year while living in San Francisco and after that, I was a sole carer of 3 girls aged 2, 4, 6 while living in Long Island. In 2013 I looked after a 4 year old boy for two full days a week. I attended the swimming lessons with him, playgroups activities and general entertainment. I simply love children,love caring for them and find them fascinating. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would like to return to this profession as a full time job. I am currently looking after an 18 month old boy for two full days a week (sole in charge).

I currently hold a NSW drivers license, a fully reliable and insured car, current police clearance certificate, a working with children clearance certificate and a current first aid & CPR certificate.
