About Me

I am an energetic and outdoorsy person who thrives on staying active and exploring the world.
I have a deep passion for travel and have spent many years living and working abroad in the French Alps, the Greek Islands, and most recently, West Palm Beach, Florida. These experiences have made me highly adaptable and always excited to discover new places and cultures.
In my free time, you’ll most likely find me outdoors enjoying a country walk, by the beach or spending quality time with my family and friends. I am a keen tennis player and hold an LTA Level 1 Coaching certification, and I also love sea swimming and skiing.
Having previously worked as a Private Chalet Host, I have a real love for the mountains and enjoy the fast-paced, high-energy nature of seasonal life.
I am a confident driver with a full, clean UK license and am always willing to travel for the right opportunity. Whether I’m on a tennis court, a ski slope, or simply exploring a new city on holiday, I bring a positive, ‘can-do’ attitude to everything I do.

My Experience

While my transition into professional private household roles has been the focus of the last couple of years, I have been working with and caring for children for many years. Between my dedicated professional experience and being hands on to help raise my own nephews (now aged 2 and 5), under 5's is an age gap I am incredibly comfortable and experienced with. I understand the energy, patience, and developmental structure required for this stage of life, and I love seeing children reach their milestones through active, engaged play.

The ‘Nanny Plus’ Approach
I describe myself as a ‘Nanny Plus’ because I bring my professional PA and Luxury Hospitality background into the home to help the whole house run smoothly. My goal is to make life easier for you and your family; while I’m ensuring the children are active and engaged, I’m also proactively managing the family’s 'logistical puzzle'. From nursery runs and and light housekeeping to preparing healthy meals for the entire family, I take care of the details so you don't have to.

An Active & Healthy Lifestyle
I am a firm believer in the power of the outdoors. As an LTA Level 1 Tennis Coach and former Private Chalet Host, I love staying active and bringing that energy to the children I care for. Whether we are exploring outside or working on a new skill, I focus on keeping children stimulated and screen-free. I am a confident driver, a nutritious cook, and I pride myself on being a discreet, reliable, and compassionate addition to any household.

Emma was a nanny for our two young girls (3 and 1.5yrs) for a 5 month trip we made to America. She was incredibly kind, reliable and trustworthy I would highly recommend her. She takes a very nurturing approach with the kids and is great at planning activities and making every day fun for them. Great nanny!
