About Me

Hi, I'm Marilena! With a background in science and a Diploma in Transformational Coaching, I bring a unique mix of structure, curiosity, and emotional intelligence to every childcare session.

I have hands-on experience with children across a wide age range, from caring for a 10-month old baby to tutoring children aged 6–11 in reading, maths, and homework support. I tailor every session to the individual child, whether that means a calm, playful afternoon with a little one or an engaging science experiment with an older child who needs a bit of extra spark.

I'm patient, observant, and great at building trust with children who take time to warm up. Parents can always expect regular updates and clear communication throughout — because peace of mind matters as much as the care itself.
I'm DBS checked, hold a full driving licence, and have my own car, so I can come to you with no fuss.

My Experience

I have cared for a 10 month old baby, providing attentive, nurturing care and keeping the parents updated throughout, something I make a priority with every family I work with.
I have over two years of tutoring experience with children aged 6–11, tailoring sessions to each child's individual learning style. I've worked with children who were initially reluctant or fidgety, building trust and engagement gradually through patience and consistency.
I grew up helping neighbours and family friends with childcare, assisting with daily routines, activities, and looking after younger children, so caring for kids has always come naturally to me.
