I'm a highly qualified Infant Care Specialist and Baby Sleep Consultant with over 25 years of experience caring for babies and young children. I've dedicated my professional life to supporting families through the most transformative stages of early parenthood. My journey began with a deep-seated passion for infant development, leading me to obtain a BA (Hons) in Childhood Studies and Open College Network Level 4 training in Maternity Nursing.

​

For over a decade, I worked as a professional Nanny for  high-net-worth and high profile families, caring for children from newborn through to teens. My career has taken me from central London to New York, Florida, Europe and the Bahamas, giving me invaluable experience supporting families from a wide range of backgrounds and cultures.

​

Alongside my nannying career, I have worked across a range of childcare and family support settings, including as an Ofsted-registered childminder, as well as in a variety of community-based childcare and family support roles.

​

I'm also mum to my own three children, so I understand just how rewarding—and exhausting—the early years can be. Becoming a mother myself in 2012 gave me a very personal insight into the challenges that come with having a young family, particularly the impact that disrupted sleep can have on everyday life. It sparked a growing interest in the science of infant sleep and a desire to understand the factors that influence sleep, the reasons sleep can become challenging, and how evidence-based support can make a genuine difference to families. This ultimately led me to retrain as a Baby Sleep Consultant and to build on my years of practical childcare experience to support families in this field.


Each family I work with receives a completely bespoke approach. I don't believe in rigid, one-size-fits-all methods because every baby—and every parent—is unique. Whether we are working on gentle sleep solutions, establishing nurturing routines, or navigating the complexities of the fourth trimester, my goal is always to provide evidence-based guidance with compassion and warmth. Based in Chelmsford, I am proud to offer both hands-on at-home support and comprehensive online consultations for families across the UK, ensuring that expert help is always within reach when you need it most.
