Professional Nanny
CARING, NATURE-FOCUSED NANNY incorporating Yoga, mindfulness and relaxing baby/children therapeutic massage to help with hyperactivity, stress, anger, overstimulation, sleep issues etc. Fostering positive behaviour, free will through creativity and play based on Steiner development and wellbeing.

With 7+ years caring for children experience, I create enriching days tailored to support whole-child development through outdoor adventures, engaging activities, and emotional support.

MY SUPPORT FOR CHILDREN:

Infants benefit from sensory play, songs, stories and sunny strolls to develop motor and language skills. My soothing nurturing nature and massage/yoga skills provides comfort and ease eg. for sleeping routine.

Toddlers enjoy sorting shapes, simple puzzles, music and imaginative play. Potty training and identifying letters/numbers tailored to their needs.

Preschoolers thrive with hands-on science projects, games, crafts and field trips to satisfy curiosity. My patient guidance through challenges helps growth.

For school-age, I provide homework help, educational trips, board games to build skills. Teaching responsibility through cooking/tasks. My motivation through difficulties promotes resilience.

I incorporate forest school activities like nature walks, outdoor art, gardening, camping etc. Unstructured play in nature sparks creativity.

In addition, I excel at planning and executing children's birthday parties and events that create lasting memories. From themes, decor, entertainment to party bags - I handle all details!

My priority is keeping children engaged, active, and emotionally supported. I nurture social, physical, cognitive and emotional growth tailored to each child's unique needs.

Marcella have been with us for 1 year and the bonding she have created with Mia (8) and Matilda (2) was just exceptional.
She ticks all the boxes a nanny should have:
1. Reliable and professional, never let you down.
2. Loving and caring.
3. Attentive: a very important quality with a toddler full of energy!
4. Great with homework!!!!! To the point Mia had her homework awarded twice in her year group..
5. Cooking healthy yummy food.
6. Last but not least: with a creative flair!
Marcella will be a fantastic addition to your family, highly recommended from my children to yours.

Marcella has been our nanny for our one year old son. As soon as we met Marcella we knew she would be perfect. She has such a loving and open personality and our son warmed to her straight away.

Our son has the most wondering days exploring and seeing new sights. Marcella knows all the best places to go and he has the best time on their adventures together. Marcella has shaped our son and he adores her.

It’s been amazing seeing their bond grow and we will be so sad when our son starts nursery in September.

Marcella has so much love to give, she is wonderful and kind, super organised and exceptional at her job. She also makes our son healthy and delicious food.

Happy to provide more in-depth details upon request.
