My Summary

My Experience

I’m a calm, dedicated, and highly organised Norland Nanny, Maternity Nurse, and Sleep Consultant with a genuine passion for supporting children and families from the very beginning of their journey through to the teenage years. With extensive hands-on experience caring for children from newborns to age 14, I aim to create a nurturing and secure environment where both children and parents feel supported and understood.
As a qualified Paediatric Sleep Consultant and Maternity Nurse, I offer personalised guidance on newborn care, sleep training, and postnatal support. I’ve cared for premature babies, supported families managing reflux and complex medical needs, and helped many parents build confidence in those precious early weeks. I love being part of that transition—helping families find rhythm, rest, and reassurance during such a transformative time. My work ranges from implementing gentle sleep plans and weaning, to creating meaningful developmental play rooted in each child’s emerging interests and needs.
With a background that bridges both nannying and maternity care, I take a holistic approach—one that values emotional connection, developmental progress, and day-to-day consistency. I’m equally comfortable supporting busy households, managing travel, and stepping into a proxy parenting role when needed. I’ve worked in fully staffed homes where professionalism, flexibility, and teamwork are key.
As a dual British-American national, I’m confident working across cultures and have travelled extensively with families around the world. Whether I’m supporting a newborn through their fourth trimester or helping a toddler explore the world with curiosity and confidence, I approach each role with empathy, structure, and an unwavering commitment to the well-being of the whole family.
