My Summary
About Me
Hello,
I’m Habibe Kotan. Since 2016, I have been working with children of different ages and needs, providing educational and care support, especially for children with special needs. As a patient, reliable, and creative caregiver, I ensure that children feel safe while also enjoying their time.
As an Ofsted-registered professional, I offer families trustworthy and legally compliant childcare services. My approach is always tailored to each child’s individual needs, with creativity at the heart of my work.
I have been living in London since December 2023 and continue providing my services through my LTD company. Turkish is my native language, and while I am not yet fully fluent in English, I am improving every day through my work with families.
I am also registered with Grant Payment Services and Tax Free Childcare. Please check my available days to save time, as they are regularly updated. If you need support outside of these times, I would be more than happy to help wherever possible.
Please note that I provide a minimum of 5 HOURS of service per day.
If you are looking for safe, caring, and dedicated support for your child, I would be delighted to meet you.
Best,
Habibe

Habibe took care of my 7-month-old baby for 5 months. During this time, we never had any problems. She is a very clean, meticulous, and caring caregiver. She loved my daughter very much, and you could feel this love in everything she did. Thanks to Habibe, I was able to leave my child with her with complete peace of mind and focus on my own responsibilities. Unfortunately, we could not continue working with her because we moved houses, which makes me very sad. I wish her all the best in her professional life. I definitely recommend her.

Habibe started with us around 4 weeks ago for some part-time nannying for our 8 month old baby. She’s reliable, caring, and great with our little girl. She helps with daily routines, weaning, and engaging playtime, both at home and on trips out of the house. She also prepares meals and keeps the nursery tidy and organised. We’re very happy with the support she provides and appreciate her calm, nurturing approach.
