Nanny looking for a part time/full time nanny position based in Hertfordshire/preferably St. Albans area - would also consider evening babysitting.

[sazzy500]

This may be a bit of a long shot but it's worth while giving it a go!...I've got a lot of my previous jobs from online websites and they have always worked out very well.

I'm a female looking for a nanny job based in or around St. Albans. I've just spent the last 6 months as a live in nanny for a lovely family in central London. However I've recently decided the time had come to move back into my family home in order to save up (with the intention of getting renting my own flat...credit crunch permitting!!)

I'm well eduacated and hold a degree in English Literature. My aim is to become a primary school teacher and a school in which I did work experience for is really keen to mentor me for the GTP (graduate training programme) where I will train as a teacher on the job. This post doesn't start until the new academic year - Septeber 2009, therefore I am looking for a nanny post ASAP until September. However I would consider a temporary post/adhoc days/evening babysitting.

I have plenty of experience working with children in many different settings; live in nanny, live out daily nanny, working in a nursey and working in a school. I've worked with all ages of children ranging from 3 months - 16 years, and feel confident caring for a number of children at a time.

I currently have an enhanced CRB check, and my own reliable car (with a full and clean licence). Many of my past jobs have included driving children around central London to various clubs anad activities so I'm happy to have children in my car as part of the job.

I can offer impeccable references and remain great friends with all the previous families that I have worked for. I'm fun, caring, competent and committed to the happiness and well-being of the child/children at all times. I'm very creative and sociable myself and enjoy taking the children out whether it's to monkey music, the park, the library or a mother and baby group.

Please contact me via email [email protected] for any more information and I will happily give you more details of my experience (and if requested my phone number)

Many thanks for reading this!
Sarah.

have you registered with any agencies?

Julie at Hawthorne Nannies is fantastic

She is very thorough with checking both the nanny and the family to ensure a good match

Good luck

I'd have you if you worked out less than my current childcare of over £400 per month

I think you'd have to be Ofsted approved for that to be the case though

Hi ojectivityislivid I'm afriad I'm not Ofsted registered so won't be able to help you.

And thank you phraedd - I'm registering with Hawthorne nanny agency now. I'm currently registered with one agency but they keep on offeing me jobs which are about 30 miles away - which is simply too far for me to travel on a daily basis.

A mum I used to work for has been telling a lot of her friends about me and they've been giving me odd days here and there (as a lot of them don't work) but ideally I'd like something more substantial...so the looking continues!
