My name is Van, a dedicated and professional nanny from Surrey, with a rewarding 18-year career in nurturing children's growth and development. Having worked with children from infancy to school age, my experience has allowed me to master infant care, establish healthy routines, facilitate early learning through play, and provide support with homework and daily duties.
As a nanny, I put a strong emphasis on safety, emotional well-being, and positive communication, and I always strive to devise a calm, organized, and nurturing environment for children to thrive in. Beyond my roles, I revel in reading children's books, immersing myself in arts and crafts, exploring outdoor trails, and planning stimulating and age-appropriate activities that foster creativity and curiosity.
Presently, I am available for work in varying schedules throughout the week, from mornings, midday, evening to night on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. On Wednesdays and Sundays, I am available in the morning and at night respectively.
Having raised children of my own, I have a warm, patient, and trustworthy demeanour that families often admire. I take pride in being reliable and respectful of each family's unique household routines and parenting styles. I believe robust communication with parents is integral to providing the best care for children.
I am open to multiple job roles including Nanny, Babysitter, Nanny/Housekeeper, Nanny/Tutor, Virtual Babysitter and Home daycare. With a German citizenship, I speak fluent English and German, am flexible with relocating or traveling, and hold a valid driver's license. However, please note that currently, I do not have a vehicle for use on the job.
Given my background, I am more than comfortable in performing a range of duties such as running errands, meal preparation for kids, doing children's laundry, ironing children's clothing, assisting with homework and adhering to special dietary rules. More so, it would be a privilege for me to work with children with disabilities. Ultimately, my commitment to childcare transcends beyond a job—it's a long-term commitment to support children as they learn, grow and gain confidence. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones!
