Dear Parents, My name is Michele and I am 27 years old. I am originally from Germany, however I have spent the past 7 years overseas - 5 ½ years in Australia and almost 1 ½ years in England. Throughout that time I have worked as a Nanny, firstly as a live-in Nanny, where I looked after a 1 year old boy for 9 months. Secondly, I started working at a bilingual Kindergarten as the German teacher in the pre-school room, for 8 months. About 3 years ago, I decided to start my own nannying service in Sydney, where I worked for 5 families and took care of 7 children, aged between 5months and 12 years, on different days a week. I am friendly, loving, caring, responsible, funny, trustworthy, flexible, creative and reliable. I consider myself an active Nanny and have always enjoyed taking the children to outings, such as playgroups, museums, aquatic centres, libraries, ballet classes, in order for them to socialise with others, to explore their environment and foster their development. Moreover, I like setting up fun, engaging and educational activities at home. I absolutely enjoy doing art and craft activities with the children, which is just one of many reasons why I love being a Nanny.
