My Summary

My Experience

With a heart for nurturing and supporting families, I am a highly experienced nanny and newly qualified Maternity Nurse, dedicated to providing compassionate, reliable, and well-structured care. For over 5 years, I have had the joy of working with wonderful families both in the UK and abroad, offering everything from live-in and live-out support to fixed-term holiday care. I bring a gentle, child-centred approach to my work, drawing from my background in top independent schools to encourage children’s development through engaging, educational activities.

With my recent Level 3 Diploma in Postnatal Care/Non-Medical Maternity Nursing from the highly regarded NEST, where I graduated with Distinction, I bring warmth and specialised support to families with newborns. I’m here to make each day feel smoother and more organised, working with your family’s unique rhythms and needs. From feeding and sleep routines to developmentally appropriate play, I focus on creating an environment where babies feel secure and happy. I stay up-to-date on NHS guidelines and love to take a gentle, nature-based approach during wake windows. My care style is baby-led, responsive, and flexible to fit your family’s preferences. I’ve often been told I have a natural intuition and empathy for others, especially babies, and I work to ensure they feel fully nurtured and supported.

I would be delighted to share more about my experience and qualifications. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to see my full portfolio and CV or to discuss your family’s needs.
