Maternity Nurse in London: Lewisham (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
About Me
Experienced Newborn & Family Support Practitioner.
I am 31 years old. I have worked as an early years consultant and a parental support practitioner. I have 15 years of experience working with children and families. Becoming a mum truly shaped my passion, perspective and approach. It allows me to support families and children with an understanding of both sides of the coin. Professional knowledge and lived experience that families can relate to.
I worked my way up from a nursery apprentice to owning my own setting and supporting many families one to one. When I was pregnant with my second child, I launched an online community created to support parents at every stage of parenthood. Through this I work alongside a range of specialists and professionals including sleep consultants, doulas, midwives and nutritionists, educators etc.
Supporting parents is my passion but nothing replaces hands on experience with families. I have supported over 80 families over the years and have a directory of references available.
My Experience
I have 15 years of experience in childcare and family support. I have extensive knowledge of children’s development, but my ethos has always been child led. In today’s fast paced world, I believe it is important to slow down and protect the pace of childhood.
I began my career as an early years apprentice and progressed to practitioner level. I later moved into nannying, then became a childminder before going on to own my own setting. Over the years I have managed more than 13 staff members and supported over 80 families.
When I was pregnant with my second son, I took some time out and became very aware of the lack of support available to parents, especially new and first time mums. This led me to build a community hub where families could access guidance from a wide range of trusted professionals.
I have supported seven families one to one with newborn care, alongside raising my own two boys. My support has included helping to establish sleep routines, supporting families through colic, preparing meals for mothers, caring for babies and providing overnight support so parents could get the rest they needed.
I am calm, patient, knowledgeable and organised, but above all I am passionate about what I do. I genuinely love supporting families and being part of their journey.
