My Summary
About Me
Hi,
I’m Seda, an experienced Infant Care Specialist with over 10 years of expertise in newborn and baby care. I have supported babies from birth, helping to ensure their healthy and balanced development.
With a strong background as a Maternity Nurse specialising in newborn care, I have dedicated my career to supporting babies during the most crucial early stages of life. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Koç University, one of the most prestigious institutions in Turkey, and began my career in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at the American Hospital.
During this time, I gained hands-on experience caring for premature babies, managing neonatal emergencies, and addressing common early-life health concerns such as colic and reflux. I also provided families with personalised support in breastfeeding, establishing sleep routines, and promoting healthy development from day one.
I’ve continued my work as a maternity nurse, helping families adapt to their newborn’s needs with a compassionate and professional approach. I believe every baby is unique, and every family deserves support that is tailored specifically to them my goal is to offer personalised care that helps them begin their journey in the healthiest and most confident way possible.

We cannot recommend Seda highly enough. As a qualified medical nurse with experience in a hospital neonatal department, she brings exceptional knowledge, professionalism, and confidence to her role as a maternity nurse.
She cared for our baby over many nights with genuine warmth and an incredible ability to understand exactly what our baby needed. She also provided wonderful support to my wife during those initial months, giving us both reassurance and confidence.
What really stood out was her continued support after her placement, offering thoughtful advice by text and phone on sleep, weaning, and other newborn questions. Her guidance was always practical, reassuring, and evidence-based.
Seda is kind, dependable, and completely trustworthy. We are incredibly grateful for her support and would recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for an outstanding maternity nurse.

Seda helped us with our newborn Leo after we had some mixed experiences with prior night nannies. Seda was amazing - she helped calm our nerves about looking after him, was extremely caring and attentive and very knowledgable. We feel that we are better parents from having been able to learn from Seda.
Her nursing background was very helpful in helping us manage his reflux as well as caring for him after his vaccinations.

Hi Josh,
Thank you so much for your kind words, they truly mean a lot to me 😊
It was a real pleasure supporting you and your family during such a special time. I’m really glad if I was able to help you feel more comfortable and at ease.
You are truly wonderful parents, and Leo is very lucky to have you.
Wishing you and your family all the very best 😌🙏🏻
Seda started working for our family in mid February 2026 to support us with nights with our newborn. We hired her to provide support while I navigated breastfeeding nights with my first baby, her support was invaluable in this. She is a lovely kind person and I really felt she cared about our son; she took great care of him so I could get much needed sleep between feedings, handling all changing and settling of the baby. We had originally planned on a few nights a week for three weeks, then to taper down, but Seda was such a wonderful support we extended her as long as she was available.
Seda supported me in learning how to be more confident bathing our son, helped me with positioning for easier feeding and reassured me as the various sleep regressions happened. Throughout she was really warm and lovely to spend time with when up during the early morning hours. She is really knowledgeable and helpful and a very kind person. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for support after having a baby. I wish we could have her around longer she would be a great help to any new mums.
