Hello, I'm Danielle, I am an American master's student and just moved to London in January. I specialize in caring for newborns, toddlers, and children up to primary school age. As a live-out nanny, I am committed to ensuring the well-being and safety of your children while fostering their growth and development. I have a very flexible schedule, including early mornings, nights, and weekends. My university courses have finished for the semester and won't resume again until October.
I have a pediatric CPR certification from the Red Cross in the USA, and references from my previous babysitting jobs in Miami, FL. I regularly babysat for 2 families every week from September 2023 to January 2025. I also worked for various additional families who hired me off of Care..... in the states.
I am compassionate, kind, patient, and funny. I've babysat twins and children from as young as three months to ten years old. I'm a pro at diapering, bedtime, reading books, playing games, preparing meals, bath time, and cleaning. I love pets as well. I have a cat and have worked as a dog walker. I hope we can connect. Thank you for your time and consideration!
