About Me

“Current Nanny Position Ending 16th October”
Hello! I’m a mum of three (13, 8, and 1) and understand how important individual care is—one of my children has autism, so I know the value of patience and tailored support.
I’m friendly, reliable, and love creating fun, safe environments where children feel happy and secure.

I hold a Master’s in Education (specializing in special needs support) and have 11+ years of teaching experience plus 3+ years of professional childcare (newborns to age 14, including children with additional needs).
During the Covid-19 pandemic, I also volunteered as a healthcare assistant, gaining basic first aid and emergency response skills.

Other Information
• Enhanced DBS and First Aid Certificate
• Non-smoker, highly organized, hygiene-conscious
• Children’s safety and wellbeing always come first

Trustworthy and Attentive Babysitter

5 stars

Ruhana is my go to Babysitter. I trust her with my kids. She demonstrated so much care towards my lil ones. For example, my youngest is 1 and has very bad eczema. She put on his creams consistently as instructed and gives him cuddles when he is stressed/unwell and feeds him very well. She has no troubles to put kids to sleep either.

Highly Recommended

5 stars

Ruhana was more than my son’s nanny—she became family. From the moment she stepped into our home, her warmth and care were undeniable. She bonded with my baby instantly and showered him with so much with love and attention, she took him like her own and I will be forever grateful for her.

Ruhana’s time with us was brief but her impact will last a lifetime. We are so grateful for everything she did for our baby Anyone lucky enough to have her in their lives will feel the same❤️

Trustworthy on first met

5 stars

We had an unusual request, we needed a babysitter for our hotel stay while we went to a conference and Ruhana was flexible, available, really open minded and the children immediately loved her. Our little one made a little trouble for her but she managed it professionally and emphatically.

Wonderful help

5 stars

Ruhana is such a blessing to our household and amazing how the boys took to her so easily. She is very warm and gentle and has that maternal touch a mum seeks when leaving a child to another to care for.
We are glad we found you Ruhana.
Thank you!
