About Me

Hello! My name's Miri, I'm 32 and live in Richmond Hill and I have 10 years' experience in childcare as a nanny/babysitter since I moved to London in 2015.

I've been working at Sky for the last 5.5 years as a TV Creative/Podcaster but have recently left to pursue a freelance career in this field and I'm looking to do a bit of childcare on the side for some extra income.

I mainly work as an evening babysitter (for all ages) and have over 10 families whose children I look after at the moment on an ad hoc basis in the local area (and open to more!)

I’m currently looking after a 10 month old baby in Wandsworth every Wednesday and Thursday, which I absolutely love. However I'm open to ad hoc work around this in the week and the occasional weekend work.

My preferred age to look after is 3 or under as I especially love looking after babies and toddlers :-)

I would describe myself as very creative, warm, friendly, energetic and maternal. All the kids I've ever looked after have warmed to me very quickly and I absolutely love looking after kids and meeting new characters. I can't wait to have my own family one day!

Please get in touch with me for more info and see my references below. I’d love to chat further! Thank you.

My Experience

I've been working as a babysitter/nanny part time since I moved to London in 2015, ranging from newborns to 10 year olds so I've pretty much looked after every single age! There really are too many families and clients to list so if you'd like more info on my experience, just ask. I've also worked with kids aged 7-15 helping them make films.

REFERENCES FROM PARENTS (phone numbers to verify these available on request)

1. Miri has been with us for a short amount of time looking after my 10 month old baby. My son enjoyed his time with her: took him out for walks, played peek-a-boo, and putting him down for naps etc. Miri is very bubbly and fun to be around. Most importantly I could trust her and felt my baby was safe with her.
Nadia, 2025. Client from April 2025 to present.

2. We had Miri look after our children (ages 8 and 11), and she was fantastic. The kids loved playing with her. Miri kept them engaged, supervised them well, and handled the bedtime routine after some TV time. We were completely at ease knowing they were happy and well taken care of. We’d highly recommend Miri!
Veronica and Chris Greener, 2025. Client since Nov 2023 to present.

3. Our three kids very much enjoy spending time with Miri. She is kind, interested in their stories, up for playing all sorts of games and really listens to them - they love the attention.
For us, communication with Miri is easy: she is very responsive, and has helped us out on very short notice, and always tries to work around our schedule. We can very much recommend her!
Anja, 2024. Client since May 2022 to present.

4. Our girls love Miri. She is a very friendly and happy person, always punctual, reliable and listens to the kids' needs and wishes. She knows how to organise and get along with children in a respectful and kind way.
Sylvie Jansen, 2023. Client since Sept 2022 to present.

5. Our kids love it when Miri looks after them! She is great with the kids, happy to help with any part of their routine, and they feel very comfortable with her. She is quick to respond, reliable, and organised. We have no problem recommending her to other families.
Lizzy, 2023. Client since January 2022 to present.

6. Miri has been our regular nanny to our two daughters (now aged 4 and 2) since April 2018 when the girls were around 2.5 and 9 months. Miri is great with toddlers (the age they are now) but also with small babies, very aware of what they can or can’t eat / any choking hazards etc. She has even looked after our children for entire weekends when we have been at weddings. The girls absolutely adore her. She picks them up from nursery and all the nursery staff always sing her praises. Miri is a big part of our daughters’ first years. We would definitely recommend her as a nanny.
Léa Salamon, 2018. Client from April 2018 to March 2020.

7. Miri got in touch through Childcare.co.uk and we scheduled a meeting after which we immediately decided that Miri was a good fit for our family. Miri looked after our daughter Hazel from the start of January 2017 through to mid October 2017 and has since on and off during the summer holidays, too. Her fantastic creativity showed in the activities she chose to do with Hazel and we knew she would never be bored. As well as this she often took her out to play on the Common or to the park and we always felt safe knowing our daughter was in capable hands. Miri was always calm and collected and handled stressful situations well. She handled tantrums and difficult toddler behaviour in a calm manner. It was also obvious to us that she had fun with Hazel which I think is very important. I work from home some of the time and could often hear them both giggling together.
Lydia Lown, 2017. Client for 2017 then ad hoc for a year or so after.

8. Miri has carried out ad-hoc childcare for us since May 2017, when my daughter Cleo was 15-months-old, and previous to this regularly looked after my neighbours’ two children and now looks after my other daughter who was 9 months when Miri began. Miri has a really good connection with the girls and has been really accommodating, trustworthy, communicative, and is smart, easy going and personable.
Rachel Calton, 2017. Client from May 2017 to Nov 2019.
