About Me

Hello and thank you for viewing my profile. My name is Avril and I have worked for the NHS with babies, parents and children for over twenty years. I am a qualified nursery nurse, neonatal nurse, health visitor and paediatric nurse. I also have two children of my own. I am a happy and positive person with a strong work ethic and an approachable manner. I am passionate about supporting parents and their babies and children and have a strong work ethic.

My Experience

Due to my extensive training, knowledge and expertise, I am equipped to support the transition to parenthood, supporting new parents and babies with breast, bottle and mixed feeding, identifying possible feeding concerns such as tongue ties, reflux and supporting with growth and development. I am trained to identify possible postpartum mental health needs for mothers and can support low mood. I am also able to manage all aspects of child health and development up to the age of five years. Due to the fact I am a neonatal nurse nurse also, I have experience looking after multiple and premature babies. I can competently support babies and children who require nasogastric feeding, pump feeding and medication administration. I am also highly skilled to identify and act upon signs of a sick child and am trained in adult and child basic life support, including dealing with potential choking.

My Availability

I will be available from June 2026. I am available to work between 25-30 hours per week and am flexible to a degree with how those hours are staggered throughout a working week of Monday to Friday. I am happy to support one night shift per week if required and also would support hours on a weekend, once per month.
