About Me

I'm a 28-year-old woman, originally from Uganda, where I grew up in a nuclear family of eleven—two parents and nine siblings. I'm the sixth of nine children, and after losing one parent, I took on a lot of responsibility for caring for my younger siblings from a young age. That experience shaped who I am; patient, nurturing, and cares for others. Additionally, during my high school and bachelor's university education, I stayed with my older siblings, who had children, and frequently took care of my nieces and nephews.

My Experience

I'm a 28-year-old woman, originally from Uganda, where I grew up in a nuclear family of eleven—two parents and nine siblings. I'm the sixth of nine children, and after losing one parent, I took on a lot of responsibility for caring for my younger siblings from a young age. That experience shaped who I am; patient, nurturing, and cares for others. Additionally, during my high school and bachelor's university education, I stayed with my older siblings, who had children, and frequently took care of my nieces and nephews. I currently live in Croydon with my cousin, and I help care for her two young children including picking them up from school, preparing light meals for them, washing and ironing their clothes, feeding and bathing them, and supporting them with their homework and school assignments. This has been a natural and rewarding part of my daily life, and it's given me hands-on, everyday experience with children's routines, needs, and wellbeing.
Looking ahead, I am excited about the opportunity to bring my caring nature, reliability, and experience, both from my upbringing and my current role supporting my cousin's children into a nannying role where I can continue making a meaningful difference in children's lives.
