Dear Family
My name is Ilona. I am from Hungary and moved to London in 2003.
I have come to an end of a 7 years job, what I cannot say that it is a work, for quite a long time now. They are rather family to me, then my job. 3 beautiful children. The reason it is ending, because mum has stopped working and going to stay home and be a full time mum. So, that is the reason that I am looking for a nanny job from September. Possibly full time, but happy to have more families in a week or nanny-share work as far as it gives me my needed hours. I am quite flexible about it tho.
I have quite a lot of experiences. Have been looking after family members back in Hungary. Helped out to family friends for some pocket money when I was a little older. Than I have been an Au-pair for 3 amazing family before I changed and worked in a gastro-pub for 3.5 years. But in the meanwhile, in my day off, I was looking after 2 beautiful children. Than I have decided to go back to be a full time nanny. Since that I have had plenty children to look after.
I had Ofsted registration, so have gone through all the process of it (CRB check, first aid, Nanny course), but as the family no longer needed it, we stopped the registration. I am happy to register again, if family needs it.
As my profile shows you, I have been looked after varies of ages of children. Mainly started when they were very young, 4 months and finished when they had siblings arrived, or gone to nursery. Also had older children in my Au-pair "time" and looking after them at the moment too. But anyhow, whatever age they are one to one session is a very important time in there life. So I do try to give them as much as possible. Games and activities mainly depend on there interest. Music, singing, drawing and all sorts of memory games, or any games it is around. Playing imagery games. Teaching them good manner, eat, speak, and behave well. Teaching them as much as possible. Learning about seasons and do activities in all of them. Learning letters and numbers. Teaching them to cook or be involved in 'adult things'. ... etc.
I can go on for hours, but we all know that it's not about how much and how nicely do I tell you what can I do. Action tells everything.
I live in Sutton and looking for something here or nearby. I can drive, I have a car, but do not want to use it for work.
Thank you for reading my introduction.
Looking forward hearing from you.
