About Me

I am a warm, dedicated and highly adaptable nanny with a strong background in both childcare and education. I have several years of experience working with children across different settings, including roles as a live-in and live-out nanny, as well as supporting travelling families in temporary positions. These experiences have allowed me to become confident in adapting to different family routines, cultures, and environments while always maintaining a calm, reliable presence for the children in my care.

Alongside my nannying experience, I previously worked as a nursery practitioner, which gave me a strong foundation in early childhood development. I also hold a PGCE in Primary Education from the UCL Institute of Education. My educational background allows me to thoughtfully support children’s learning and development through age-appropriate activities that encourage curiosity, creativity, and confidence.

I strongly believe that children learn best through exploration, play, and being given the space to develop independence. I enjoy planning engaging activities that support children’s development while also making learning fun and meaningful. Whether it’s reading stories together, exploring art and creative projects, or spending time outdoors, I aim to create a positive environment where children feel safe, supported, and excited to learn.

I also love cooking and am always happy to prepare healthy, home-cooked meals for the family. My approach is nurturing, patient, and attentive, and I value building strong and trusting relationships with both children and parents.

Above all, I take great pride in creating a warm, supportive environment where children can grow in confidence, develop independence, and feel genuinely happy and secure.
