 Hello, I’m Nanny Han

I am an OFSTED registered nanny that loves an adventure! I am a warm, kind, highly experienced sole charge British nanny with boundless energy and professional experience from newborn upwards. I appreciate just how important it is to find the right childcare and feel confident in leaving your children with the right person. I come with excellent references and am known by the families I’ve been lucky enough to join for being their ‘Mary Poppins.’ I am often found playing pirates, princesses or stuck at the top of a climbing frame surrounded by children, I have been told by my charges that I can do a mean American accent and a super ‘princess’ voice. I don't just like to read a story, I like to bring every character to life. I absolutely ADORE my job and find it so rewarding. I’ve been lucky enough to go on many adventures with my families, from exploring the local forest to travelling long haul around the world! 

  I am committed to child development and safety and learning through play. I follow the OFSTED guidelines for Early Years. (Updated 2021.) I’m a great believer in open ended resources and child led activities. A cardboard box isn’t just a box - it could be a space ship, shopping trolley, car or a house! I have had Montessori training and hold a certificate in Montessori education. 

 
I am very confident supporting children with additional needs. I have in depth experience working with children with ASD using a variety of communication methods, regulation techniques, as well as using sensory discovery, speciality massage and more!
I have tutoring experience and have worked with children needing additional school support and GDD.
I have also had experience supporting children with Type 1 Diabetes, serious life threatening allergies and can handle an epi-pen.

In my previous role, I worked for an OFSTED outstanding setting as an Early Years Educator, which included a session a week at Forest School. I have a current enhanced DBS check, full clean driving licence, own car and a current paediatric first aid certificate.

On a personal level, I speak both Spanish and English. I have a huge passion for playing netball - I play for a local team and really look forward to all my games! I also love skiing and am no happier than when in the snowy Alps. I am an outdoorsy person and love muddy walks, bike rides, trips to the beach and exploring the countryside, equally I am confident keeping children warm and cosy inside on winter days, playing educational games, doing arts and crafts and baking! I have an adorable dog called Rosie that has completed our happy home and I am comfortable around all animals.
