My Summary
About Me
Hello! I’m Fernanda — a dedicated and caring nanny with over three years of experience looking after children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and feel happy.
For 10 months, I worked as a live-in nanny for two wonderful boys, taking care of everything from school drop-offs and pick-ups to preparing healthy meals, helping with speech therapy sessions, planning fun educational activities, and keeping the home clean and organised.
Alongside my long-term roles, I also work as a freelance babysitter for both regular and new families. I’m often trusted to stay with children for several days or weeks while parents are away, making sure their routines run smoothly and they feel comfortable and cared for.
I’m fluent in both Portuguese and English, and I have a real passion for cooking and baking. I take pride in maintaining a tidy home and love seeing the joy and confidence that come from a happy, well-supported child.
I’m deeply committed to building strong, trusting relationships with families and providing the best care possible. Nothing makes me happier than knowing the children I look after feel safe, loved, and excited for each new day.

Kind lovely woman who put 100% into her role for looking after my young children. Fernanda stayed overnight and made pancakes for them for breakfast which was a bonus with the children

I recently had the pleasure of hiring Fernanda to look after my son, Leo, who has additional learning needs, including autism. It was my first time in quite a while leaving Leo with someone else, so naturally, I felt anxious. However, Fernanda’s warm and caring approach quickly put my worries at ease. She was incredibly patient and attentive, understanding his unique needs and creating a calm environment for him. Fernanda truly connected with Leo, and he felt comfortable and happy in her care. I couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful and compassionate babysitter. Highly recommended!

Fernanda has looked after our two kids - 4 and 7 years old - as an ad hoc nanny providing daytime and evening care during school holidays and weekends. She is brilliant with the kids - kind, caring, fun and firm. Shes proactive at arranging trips out. She keeps the kids entertained at home baking, crafting, and playing outside. She unphased by supporting our son with autism, and if confident providing him with extra support to take part in activites. She’s reliable, friendly, and very professional. I can’t recommend her highly enough! The kids are always asking me when she will be bacj
