About Me

Hello! Welcome to my profile :)
I’m Kanu, a warm and imaginative companion for your child. I’m well read in child psychology, which is why I truly believe in not just supervising them, but offering them real human connection while you take care of other responsibilities. I take the time to truly engage with my little clients, meeting them where they are, whether that means stepping into their world of make-believe, listening intently to their stories, communicating in a way that feels natural and comforting to them, or just offering them my presence when they are engaged on their own.

My Experience

My background in literature, bookselling, and communication has shaped my ability to keep young minds engaged, whether through imaginative tales, playful learning techniques, or hands-on activities that nurture creativity and confidence. I have worked in bookshops, literary projects, and community initiatives where I developed a deep understanding of how to connect with children in a way that feels natural and joyful. Through my experience, I have understood that every child communicates differently—some express themselves through words, others through gestures, art, or quiet observation. I naturally adapt to each child’s unique way of interacting with the world, making sure they always feel understood and valued.

My Qualifications

- MSc in Comparative Literature from The University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, Scotland
- BA in Psychology and English Literature from St. Xavier’s College, Mumbai, India
- Multilingual: Fluent in English and Hindi, with basic knowledge of French

- Skilled in engaging children through storytelling, literature, and imaginative play
- Experienced in adapting to different communication styles to make children feel truly heard
- Worked in bookstores and creative projects, fostering a deep understanding of young minds

My Availability

I’m available 24*7, so anytime you need me. Whether you need occasional childcare of a more regular engagement, I’d be delighted to find a schedule that works beautifully for you and your child.?
