Dear Families,

I am going to move to Winchmore Hill (N21) very soon and I am looking for a friendly family to work with as a live-out nanny. I am willing to relocate.

Let me introduce myself.

My name is Szilvia; I am a 22-year-old Hungarian girl. I came to London almost 2 years ago as an au pair. I haven't got 3-4 years of experience with children, it is true, but I have more experience with children than a simple au pair... I was an au pair (nanny) for two great families (I am still with the second one :) ) Great references are available upon request.

I started to work in Barnet with a sweet little girl (4 years old) and her single mummy. I spent 6 great months with them.

At the moment I live in Battersea with a lovely family and I am looking after 2 adorable girls, they are 5 and 8 years old. I have a very-very good relationship with this family they are like my second family. I usually have to look after the girls on my own for a week or a weekend (Parents are travelling a lot without children) I am leaving and moving out because I would like to move together with my boyfriend.

I have extensive experience in working as a nanny.

I looked after other children part time as a nanny while the girls were at school (full-time) . I was a nanny with 2 boys for 2 month (1 and 3 years old) and I was a nanny with 2 girls for 6 weeks (11 month and 2,5 years old) and I also do babysitting and work part time as a nanny with other families around my area. I couldn't get a written reference from everyone but they all are happy to answer questions on the phone or via e-mail.

I am a very happy, cheerful person. :) I love children and I like spending time with them. I can quickly build up a good relationship with people around me and integrate well in a new environment. I am hard working, reliable and able to create a happy and balanced atmosphere around myself. I am very good in any type of art crafts. I like cooking healthy food; I am energetic and like doing outdoor activities. I am a good swimmer and also an advanced salsa dancer :)

I know London very well; I know where to go on a rainy day, or what to do during the school holidays. I know many nanny-mummy-children groups, play groups, play zones, museums, swimming pools, libraries etc..

I don't mind doing housework and I have experience in doing it (cooking, washing and ironing, cleaning). I have a CRB check and in a month time I will undertake a First Aid course as well because I know it is very important if you work with children. And I am willing to be an ofsted registered nanny.

My salary Expectation would be 8 ponds / hour (NET).

I would like to stay your nanny for as long as possible and will try to be a part of your family :)

If you would like to meet please contact me on [email protected] or 07885202836

Thank you for reading my message and I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Have a nice day! :-)

Hello
My name is Sara, I am twenty- three years old. I am looking for a nanny job in south- west dorset, I live in DT3 but would be prepared to travel for the right family!
I have 6 years experince with children, including two years as a nanny, and four years working at a chidren centre ages 0- 19 years old.
I am well- motivated, trustworthy, enthusiastic, co- operative and friendly.I am able to take instruction well, and am communicate well with children, and parents/ careers. I have planned using the Early Years Foundation Stage, ensuring that all sessions are age and stage appropriate, safe, stimulating and promote equal opportunities for all children, and also provide opportunities for all areas of development. I maintain high standards of confidentiality, however, I recognise when there is a need to discuss confidential information with employer, to ensure all children are safeguarded.
My social and friendly nature means I have a knack of connecting with children and adults from diverse backgrounds. Child safety is always at the forefront of my mind and I am cool-headed in stressful situations.
I have a current first aid certificate and a current CRB check. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need any more information. Look forward to hearing from you!

Hi there,

My name is Diana, I am a 24yo qualified SEN teacher,currently waiting for the equivalation of my qualifications in the UK. Meanwhile, I'm trying to get some UK references, by helping you with your children.
I was a SEN nanny in my country (Romania) and also in Spain, but I'm fairly new to the UK, which means I don't have UK references (and they seem to be VERY important around here..). I also have au-pair experience (Republic of Ireland) and did some SEN teaching back in my country.
I have the right to work in the UK, and I am waiting for my papers to be sorted in order to be able to find a decent job as a Learning Support Assistant/ SEN nanny. I am planning to get further training in ABA therapy, Makaton, PECS, and I will also study towards a Master's degree in Education (distance learning), once I can afford it.

I have experience with:
*Aspergers/Autism
*Cerebral palsy
*Difficult behaviour
*Phisical disability
*Brain injury
*Down sindrome
*Aphasia, dyslexia
*Speech and Language therapy

I'm looking for either a familly willing to help me with references in exchange for nanny work, or a familly willing to employ me.

I am an easy-going person, i have a nice personality, a nurturing nature, I love beeing able to help...and I live for children .

I am married to an Engineer, I have a younger, disabled brother back in my country...and many friends .

I'm really flexible in terms of work, I am happy to help, and never work "with my eyes on the watch". I don't mind hard work, I'm more then used to it.
I have strong knowledge of healthy nutrition, I enjoy cooking, and cleaning relaxes me.
I take pride in my work and really like feeling that I can do someones life easier.

I am a non-smoker, non-drinker, physically fit, unfortunately can't drive but planning to get my driving licence this year

If you think we can help eachother...please contact me!
I live in East London.

Thank you

Hi I'm Kate im 21, an i'm a nanny/nursery nurse, and currently looking for a family to work for in the carlisle/penrith area.

I have an NVQ level 2+3. Im also first aid trained. I also have a full uk driving licence.

I've worked in childcare for 4 years, and was a nanny for 1 of them and the other 3 were working full time in a nursery with children aged 3 months to 8 years.

While being a nanny, i got the children ready for school, breakfast, dressed. Then throughout the day, i played with the younger child, cooked lunch, did some washing ironing, cleaning the house etc, took the child to a number of different clubs appointments and day's out. Then collected the 2 older children from school and did homework and served tea. I would have all 3 children in the holidays and did a range of activities/days out with them. I often did babysitting on the weekends. Also I went away with the family on holiday a few times.

I'm currently working in a nursery but am looking for work being a nanny, as i really enjoy it.

If this is what you're looking for please contact me my messaging me on here or calling 07540316225. Thankyou x

Nanny available in Wales!! (I'm new so hope I've put this in the right place...and hello!)

My name's Toni, I'm English, I'm 20 years old (21 in January) I am looking to become a nanny - I am fully qualified (I have a level 3 diploma in childcare and education - formally known as an NNEB) I love children and have experience working in nurseries and schools. The youngest babies I have worked with were 3 months however, I have non-professional (family friends etc) experience with newborns, I am qualified to work with children from newborn+ and am more than happy to do so.

I'd preferably like to be in the Cardiff Bay or Barry areas of Wales (Or nearby as I have friends in these areas so it would be nice to be able to see them occasionally on days off)

I like to think I'm a very friendly, polite and loving person who will look after the children as if they were my own and hopefully become a good friend to your family. I love the outdoors: both city and country life and enjoy the noisy, messy, playful times and quieter times telling stories equally. I love doing arts/crafts etc and baking with children as well as going on days out whether it be out to the park, a museum or just to do the food shopping! (Oh and I could talk to anyone of any age about Doctor Who, Toy story, Dinosaurs, space etc for houuuuuurs!)

I currently live in England but it has always been my dream to move to Wales and I think now is the time! I unfortunately don't drive as I've not had the opportunity as yet although this is something I would be looking to learn on my days off: time/funds permitting.

As I will be new to the area I would be willing to live in...I would also live out though as long as I could afford to...I'm flexible! I obviously need to be able to support myself so I'm looking for a full time position however, if I could find 2 part time positions that complemented each other that would be perfect too!

I also love animals - I'm something of a tomboy and grew up around horses and dogs so should you need your animals caring for too then that won't be problem!

If I sound like I might be what you're looking for feel free to email me with any questions or if you'd like to see a CV I also have a clear CRB check although it has just become out of date - I am more than willing to get a new one if you wish though!

I look forward to hearing from you, Toni (Sorry for such a long post!)
