My Summary
About Me
Hello! My name is África and I’m an experienced and caring nanny based in London. I’ve worked with children of all ages — from newborns to teenagers — in both formal and informal settings. My experience includes rota roles, PA nanny positions, and proxy parenting, always with a calm, reliable, and emotionally attuned approach.
I’m warm, creative, and deeply committed to each child’s well-being and development. Families often describe me as trustworthy, loving, and intuitive — someone who naturally creates a safe and joyful environment for children to grow and thrive.
I speak English, Spanish, and Catalan fluently, and have a basic level of Italian. I hold a degree in Audiovisual Production and I’m also an astrologer, which gives me a unique sensitivity to emotions, rhythms and individual personalities.
I’m currently looking for a full-time position with a family who values connection, communication, and consistency. I’m also open to travel and happy to support families with flexibility when needed.

Africa was nanny to our 2 girls (6 and 3 at the time) for almost a year. She was very nurturing, great at recognising the needs of my children, as well as doing lots of creative play and keeping my children well engaged. Africa was amazing with baking with
my younger daughter, as well as ensuring that my older daughter sat down and did a bit more formal learning. She was great at balancing my children’s busy schedules and making sure that everything was in hand.
Africa was also great at keeping the children’s things organised, and making nutritional meals.
All in all, Africa was the best nanny and we highly recommend her.

Africa worked for us for ~12 months and it was tears all round when we moved to alternative childcare (after school clubs). Africa has helped us in many ways, making sure things were easy for us as busy parents and would go the extra mile; she cooked healthy delicious meals, sorted kids lunchboxes, clothes washing, school clubs/organised playdates and also helped with confidence building and homework. My daughter sings and as Africa is a singer, she would practice with her which was noted by her tutor; saying how much stronger her voice was becoming. Africa also is very knowledgeable about astrology and takes the time to learn the children in a practical sense but also from an astrology mindset, combining these learnings into everyday practice and her understanding of the children emotions etc - this helped her moderate her responses/approaches. Africa would be an asset for any family looking for a new nanny.

Africa was our nanny for 10 months before we moved. If we could have packed her in our suitcase we would. She is the most thoughtful, honest, engaging nanny who truly loves kids. Our boys devoured her amazing cooking and loved playing games with her. She was never late, and left the house spotless every night. Any family would be lucky to have her.
