About Me

I bring 7+ years experience working with children across private nannying, teaching, tutoring and coaching roles to my current role as a self-employed nanny. As I am self-employed, you don't need to worry about employer red tape, nor setting up PAYE or paying tax or pension contributions. Please be in touch to find out more.

Life can be unpredictable—whether it’s a last-minute work trip, your regular nanny’s leave, or upcoming school holidays - that's where I come in. I work primarily as an emergency nanny and temporary nanny - if you are looking for a nanny in Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire or North West London, please contact me.

EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE:
With over 7 years of professional experience with children, my unique background spans not only private nannying, but also teaching, sports coaching (including swimming), and academic tutoring. I prioritise children's wellbeing, learning and development just as much as their physical safety.

SAFETY AND CREDENTIALS:
I hold an Enhanced DBS Check, Ofsted-standard paediatric First Aid qualification, and safeguarding chaperone license

LEARNING & ENRICHMENT:
I also provide specialised activities to enrich your child’s experience for an additional fee, including:
- Swimming Coaching: As a former County-level swimmer and coach for young competitors.
- LAMDA and Singing Coaching: With training from the world-leading Oxford School of Drama and experience as a performing arts teacher with some of the UK’s biggest youth theatre companies.

FURTHER SUPPORT
I have a muck-in attitude. Need someone to collect the food shopping, do the ironing or pick up some presents for a children's birthday party? I'm happy to run errands, help with decluttering and other PA-style duties. Just let me know!
