About Me
Almost 20 years ago, while studying for my bachelor’s degree in London, a friend suggested I try part-time nannying because of my nurturing personality, organisational skills and family background. I began working for a family in Southfields in 2007, caring for their baby boy — and I haven’t looked back since. What started as a part-time role quickly became my profession, and for nearly two decades I’ve had the joy of supporting families and helping children grow.
I’m caring, reliable and patient, with a strong sense of responsibility. Family, friends and my faith are very important to me, and I bring those values of kindness and commitment into my childcare. I enjoy cooking, travelling, socialising with friends (often hosting), and spending time in nature — and I love involving children in safe, fun cooking or creative activities. I’m also fluent in Spanish and am always happy to introduce children to the language in a natural, playful way.
Some of my most memorable childcare moments include:
• Teaching a toddler to dance to Latin music — sparking her lifelong love of music.
• Laughing along with a boy who proudly lifted his family cat and declared “The Lion King!”.
• Supporting a shy little boy to grow in confidence, helping him enjoy social activities and playdates after initially being too anxious to leave his pram.
I always keep my work environment clean, safe and organised, and I treat every child with the same care and patience I’d want for my own family. For me, childcare isn’t just a job — it’s a calling, and I feel privileged to support parents and watch little ones thrive.
My Experience
With over 18 years of hands-on experience in sole charge of a range of children (1, 2 & 3 child families) from newborn through to pre-teen years, I bring a deep understanding of childcare that is both nurturing and structured.
I have supported children’s development through age-appropriate play, engaging learning activities, outdoor activities & exercise, and reading, helping to build strong foundations in both confidence and curiosity. I’m experienced in school runs, homework supervision, and maintaining open communication with teachers to ensure children’s academic and emotional needs are consistently met.
From meal preparation to managing daily care routines, I create a stable, comforting environment while prioritizing safety and cleanliness. I am happy to provide regular updates to parents, ensuring transparency and trust. I am also flexible with occasional babysitting, making me a dependable addition to any family.
