Alpine Nanny

General information

Alpine Nanny began as a business in 2013 to provide childcare in Zermatt. I am Catherine Brooksmith and I have been working in Zermatt for 4 years, here is a bit about me.

I started Nannying as a children’s club nanny on a summer season After finishing my CACHE Diploma in childcare and education at collage in Peterborough ten years ago and fell in love with the idea of working abroad and in an environment that is always changing while looking after children.

This followed on to working with one of the best ski and mediterranean holiday companies who I worked with for 16 season working in chalets, villas, hotels and apartments across the alps and Mediterranean.

I’ve gained over the years a vast array of experience with babies, toddlers and children, during seasons as well as while working in between on my time away from the Alps and Mediterranean for families in and around London.

I independently worked with a family on their holiday and sole charge for a weekend.

I have also worked for a wonderful family for eighteen months as a family’s nanny for four amazingly wonderful children.

I have always loved working and living in the Alps and working with different families each week.

For four winter seasons I have worked in Zermatt and have fallen in love with the place. I have now made Zermatt my home and have set up Alpine Nanny independently in one of the most spectacular winter ski and summer hiking resorts.

As Alpine Nanny I am now providing childcare for families who come out to Zermatt and need a nanny while enjoying a weeks skiing knowing your children are well looked after. Or would like a night out knowing your baby sitter has experience with all ages.

I’m looking forward to working with some wonderful new families as Alpine Nanny and giving you the peace of mind your child is in the best care.
