My Summary
About Me
***UPDATE 2025***
I am currently off work temporarily so I am able to accept short term nannying jobs. I am still babysitting also for my current clients. I will have more flexibility up until August.
I work FT term time as a pastoral manager and deputy safeguard lead in a secondary school. I currently have one regular weekly evening childcare commitment, and a cohort of a few lovely families I babysit for regularly. My availability at the moment is only for evening and weekend babysitting. More flexibility during non term time of course.
References available on request.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Thank you!

Saba is a joy with my kids. She is charismatic, energetic and utterly professional. I have booked her numerous times in order to have a much needed night out or to attend a work event and she has looked after a 13, 8 and 4 year old tending to all their various needs until I have reached home. She updates me via phone and whenever I need to get hold of her - is present- and able to give me updates quickly. My younger kids run to the door when she arrives and forget all about me....which I think is testament to how Saba engages with them and makes me relaxed that they are happy whilst I am out of the house.

We contacted Saba as our new nanny couldn't start for a month and we needed pretty urgent cover, and as it was the school holidays, Saba was available. She was fantastic with our 7 month daughter and we would fully recommend her. She was reliable, caring and from very early on, we fully trusted her. We also used her one night as a babysitter.

Saba is a lovely nanny who has now been caring for my now 16 month old baby for the past 7 months.
She is very reliable and punctual. Saba feeds her meals, changes nappies, and has gotten to know my baby’s routine very well and responds to her needs well. Saba has also started cooking meals for my baby which she seems to enjoy.
She also does the laundry, contributes to the household chores keeping the living room and kitchen clean and tidy.
I would recommend Saba to anyone who wishes to employ her.
