Non smoker, non drinker. Lifetime experience raising own children and also work part time as a Relationship/ Children's counsellor. Also hands on grandmother of two (10,13). I have my own car which accomodates car seats. Whilst I do not have a current first aid certificate, I was a registered nurse for 20 years. I recognise the stress and frustration families/parents can experience in accessing affordable, caring, reliable,trusted and quality childcare, whether it be for time out for their own relationship/work/personal time. Children find me fun and I love to read, dance around and cook with them. I also recognise the need many parents have in being isolated without family support to have their children cared for in their own home with minimal disruption to their own routines. I am seeking to make a valuable difference to families whilst earning some extra income for my own needs. A most fulfilling combination for all! I am seeking regular work as well as some casual work.
Note: Fees are negotiated according to various factors including weekday/weekend, daytime/evening, number of children, age range of children, one-off/regular booking, last minute

What parents love about me
What parents love about me is my warmth and respect for each and every child's needs. I am punctual and reliable.
What kids love about me
Kids love my willingness to sing, tell stories and games. I love to enter into their world, which is very different from expecting them to be in "my world".
What I love about this work
I love the spontaneity of working with children and seeing the world through their eyes. They teach us adults a lot about life.
