International NannyInternational Nanny was born from my deep love for children and education, one that took on even greater meaning when I became a mother. Experiencing firsthand the joys and challenges of finding the right caregiver, I understood how deeply personal and significant this decision is for families.
Before founding International Nanny, my professional journey began in higher education, where I lectured and conducted academic research. However, my passion for child development led me to explore what truly nurtures a child’s growth and well-being. I dedicated years to studying Child &
Adolescent Psychology, Emotional Intelligence, and early childhood education, knowledge that now informs the way I guide families and nannies.
While living abroad, I faced the same concerns as many parents, finding a nanny I could truly trust. This experience strengthened my belief that a great nanny is more than just a qualified childcare; they are trusted professionals who seamlessly integrate into family life, offering warmth, stability, and care. That understanding became the foundation of International Nanny.
For me, this work is about creating meaningful relationships that help children thrive. I take great care in matching families with exceptional nannies who are both highly skilled and deeply attuned to a child’s emotional and developmental needs. Every placement is built on trust, understanding, and a shared vision for a child’s well-being.
At International Nanny, our mission is personal. We place only the most accomplished childcarers with discerning families, prioritising expertise, knowledge, consistency, and a clear understanding of each household’s needs. Every introduction is handled with care, ensuring families are matched with childcarers of the highest standard.
I am personally involved in every placement, taking the time to understand both the families and the nannies we work with. The right match depends on trust, shared values, and creating a stable environment for everyone involved. I care deeply about where nannies are placed, ensuring they feel respected, supported, and valued. My priority is to build relationships where families feel confident and secure, and where nannies can thrive in a professional and supportive environment. With this tailored approach, we create long-term success that benefits both families and the childcarers who dedicate their lives to this work.
Professional development is at the heart of our work. Through the International Nanny Institute, we offer specialised training in child psychology, early years education, and emotional intelligence, equipping nannies with the knowledge to support children with skill and understanding. Many of our graduates move into advanced roles, bringing both confidence and expertise to the families they support.
By investing in their growth, we strengthen the profession and ensure families receive the highest standard of childcare. This commitment gives greater recognition to the role of the nanny and enriches family life, as children benefit from support that is informed, consistent, and attentive.
My vision for International Nanny has always been clear: to define a higher standard of what it means to place a nanny, creating professional, lasting relationships between families and nannies. I want every family to feel confident in the quality of care they receive and every nanny to feel respected in their role.
I am proud of what we have built, but what matters most to me is the trust families and nannies place in us. We build relationships based on trust and care, creating stability for children and lasting success for families and nannies alike.
Thank you for trusting us to be part of your family’s story.
