I am a 25-year-old New Zealander and a qualified Registered Nurse with a background in paediatric nursing. I have worked on the Children’s Ward and Children’s High Care Unit at Christchurch Hospital, caring for children of different ages and with a wide range of needs.

My nursing experience has given me a strong understanding of child development, safety and wellbeing, as well as the ability to remain calm, organised and confident in any situation.

Alongside my nursing career, I have experience working as a nanny and babysitter and genuinely enjoy spending time with children. I’m warm, caring, energetic and reliable, and I love creating a fun and positive environment where children feel comfortable, supported and engaged.

I’m an active and outdoorsy person who enjoys skiing, hiking, running, swimming and exploring new places. When caring for children, I love getting them outdoors and active, whether that’s going for walks, visiting the park, swimming or enjoying the mountains. I also enjoy quieter activities such as baking, reading, playing games and getting creative.

I grew up on a farm in New Zealand, which has made me naturally practical, easy-going and happy to get involved in everyday family life.

I’m really looking forward to meeting new families and building wonderful relationships with the children I care for. I hope to make family life that little bit easier while ensuring the children have a happy, fun and memorable time.

“During her time with us, Caroline has been a trustworthy, reliable and capable member of the nursing team. She communicates very well with infants, children, young people and their families. As a paediatric nurse, she has developed a wide range of nursing skills and knowledge about childhood development and common paediatric health conditions. Her kind, caring and compassionate nature are attributes which have made her an excellent paediatric nurse. Caroline remains working with us on a casual basis, and I hope that one day in the future she returns to work with us.”

“Caro quickly became a trusted and valued part of our household. She is warm, patient and reliable, and she built a wonderful bond with Hudson. Her ability to engage him in age-appropriate play and learning activities supported his development while also making their time together fun. Her nursing background and training gave us even more confidence in her ability to care for Hudson safely and attentively. We always found Caro to be dependable and professional. She arrived on time, communicated clearly, and approached her work with genuine care and enthusiasm. Her calm and caring nature made us feel completely at ease leaving Hudson in her care. Hudson adored his time with Caro, and she became a very special part of his early years. I would not hesitate to recommend Caro to any family looking for a kind, trustworthy and responsible nanny. She will be an asset to any family.”
