Claire
Nanny in London: Lambeth (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
Experienced Nanny & Mother's Help - Over 30+ Years Supporting Families With Love, Support & Care
About Me
Hi, I’m Claire (legally Valda, but everyone knows me as Claire). With over 30 years of dedicated childcare experience, I bring both professional expertise and a genuinely nurturing approach to the families I work with. As a proud mother of four grown children — including twins — I understand first-hand the importance of raising children to feel secure, loved, and supported, while creating a safe environment where little ones can truly thrive. Families often describe me as kind, patient, and reliable, with a natural gift for forming warm, lasting relationships. My greatest focus is making parents feel at ease, offering reassurance and consistency so they have complete peace of mind knowing their little ones are in safe, experienced hands.
My Experience
Over the years, I’ve worked as a nursery nurse, live-in nanny in France, night nanny, and mother’s help. These roles have allowed me to support families through many different stages of childhood and given me the privilege of working with families from a wide variety of cultures and backgrounds. I have a particular wealth of experience supporting families with newborns, drawing on both my personal and professional journey. I take pride in providing attentive care that makes family life easier day to day.
