Hi my name is Willow Im 50 years old I have 3 children of my own,they are all over 22. I have just found out that I am going to be a Nana just before Christmas 2012, which is Very exciting :) I am also blessed with many ex foster children . I am a patient, kind, bubbly, lovable Mrs Doubtfire/loving Nana type of person,who is firm but fair, very patient, un-flustered, hard working, creative, fun & homely, a great listener, and a great believer in family values. My childcare experience spans over 25years, my love of Childcare started way back in 1985 and I still love watching children grow and develop into their own person.
I have worked as a childminder, for social services & private parents, a private Nanny, Nanny/HouseKeeper, Teaching assistant, and as a Babysitter. I am extremely confident in my care of the smallest baby, including twins/triplets etc. right up to the stroppiest teenagers, I am a great cook & love cooking good family food as well as fun cooking with the child/ren. .I love nature, fresh air and splashing in puddles, I also love animals but I am allergic to cats :(
Im looking for the right family, to regular nanny/babysitting for, I can cover days, nights or,weekends in the child/rens own home. I have an enhanced CRB & First Aid training. I drive & own a car so I am willing to travel upto 20 miles from my home address (Ewyas Harold) as the crow flies.
If you think I am the Nanny/Babysitter you have been looking for, Please contact me for a chat about your childcare needs and we can go from there :)
Since moving to Ewyas Harold Herefordshire in 2010 I have worked with some amazing children & their families listed below are just a couple of the highlights.
May 2011 - July 2012 - working as a before & after school Nanny
UPDATE Sept 2011 During the summer I worked as a part time Nanny for 5 month old twins whos mother was visiting family in Hereford from New York USA I mainly had sole charge which included feeding, bathing, playing, bed time & I recently weaned them both onto small amounts of solid food with mums permission.. The twins have now returned home to USA.
***I have recently worked at the wedding of Rosie Lucas-Skudamore on the Kentchurch Estate, this is the feedback I received:-
Dear Willow,
Thank you again for doing such a marvelous job. All of the parents were very happy with you both and I would definitely recommend you and use you again.
