Hello, My name is Jemima(Jem), and I love children. I have worked and continue to work with children in the past as a nanny and preschool teacher, and today serving in my church nursery. Children are my absolute passion, especially babies. I have cared for infants as young as a month old to my own kids who are 15 and 17years of age. With over 14years of experience under my belt, I am still striving for better ways to give children all the experience they need to grow and learn. Looking forward to joining your team. Many thanks. Jem.

What is the difference between a babysitter and a nanny in Sussex?
