My Summary
About Me
Hi parents, I'm a qualified nursery nurse practitioner, nanny, and mother. I worked in nurseries, schools, and in home environments. I love playing outdoor games and cooking with children 0-14 years old. I have art A level love doing creative activities for all age groups. I have a great understanding of the national curriculum for young children to arrange activities to get them ready for their key stage. I have been recently working with a few children, SEN, and love to arrange activities and games they like and most of all caring and give best childcare as every child is different I'm try too catere for theirs needs.
I have had a childcare experience for over 20 years now. I previously worked as a nursery nurse and have gone on to become nursery manager. I now have kids of my own and have applied my experience and skill while raising my own children. I believe in learning to be a continuous journey, and children can learn from everyday activities in addition to planned educational activities.
As a mother and senior montessori and SEN nanny, I have experience with newborn babies and have worked with children from 0 months to 5 years in a nursery environment, too. I know young babies are very special and to give the best support to parents with babies.
In my current situation, I am just walking to work for the safety and well-being of both parties. I live near leytonstone Station and I hope to hear from you soon.

Shabana is a wonderful nanny! She has been taking care of my 11 week old twice a week. The first time she instantly bonded with my baby and made both him and me feel very comfortable. She has a confident and gentle way with babies, and provides three lots of active care including playing with them, singing them songs, etc she is very punctual and a great communicator. She adapted very well into our home and any requests we had for our baby. I highly recommend her!

Shabana is a great nanny. She was part of a nanny share, but she was very communicative and caring for our daughter, and our little one took to her very quickly. Shabana was punctual and very communicative with us as parents from day 1. She fully respected our routines and checked in with us for any alterations. The little one saw her as authoritative but reliable figure. Unfortunately we had to move to a different part of the country and was too far for Shabana to continue helping us with the little one.

Shabana has been working with my DS since he was 2 and a half years old. He has speech and language and gross motor delays. Shabana put in so much effort to understand him and his needs and made a plan and understand strategies along with specialists and us which works for him the best. She accompanied me in finding a nursery for my DS which is more inclusive. He has made a huge progress with Shabana and he is a changed kid. She helped him with potty training and it was not an easy task. In his 5 months in he is fully trained. She always keep herself calm and is very professional and has the most positive attitude. She is a brilliant nanny and my son adores her. She is trustworthy and anyone who hires her will be lucky to have her.

I hired Shabana very last minute to look after my 10 month year old son for an event (Wedding Function). Prior to the event, I had Shabana come for an introduction with my son and she instantly bonded with him. She was superb! She knew exactly what do to and got on with it. In the short amount of time, she knew what my son's routine was, his likes and dislikes. Shabana is very attentive, caring and a quick learner. She did everything from nappy changing, to feeding, playtime, to bath time, to putting him to sleep. She definitely made my life easier during the wedding function. I didn't have to worry about a thing and just focused on enjoying my sister's wedding with my little one calm and in good hands. Shabana is very efficient, clean, organised, polite and strictly professional. She took care of my son like he was her own! And as a mother that's all you look for in a childminder. I would definitely hire Shabana again and again. A great practitioner who is excellent at her job!

I had to find a last minute nanny and reached out to Shabana. I am very glad I did, not only is she efficient , warm, kind ,extremely caring a great communicator, but also very helpful - she picked up my 15 week old daughter as I had to take my son to pre school. She was on time, professional, and put me completely at ease. She gave me updates via text, which was a nice way to keep me updated on my baby's activities. Highly recommend!

This child care professional got back to me in good time and with short notice was able to accommodate my little one. Her home environment is especially suited for caring for children and she is extremely attentive . I had a very positive experience with her and would highly recommend her.

I was lucky enough to have found shabana as a childminder for my daughter as i needed short term childcare in london!!! So so glad! She is extremely professional and helpful. Treated my daughter like her own! Kept me updated with her activities through videos! I felt like my daughter got undivided attention and i guess that is what we all mums are looking for?

My 2 year old (27 month old) loves being with Shabana
She’s qualified and it shows
I love that she mixes Montessori principles with her early years education expertise
I am in awe of how my toddler listens to her instructions and follows them even though she’s so soft spoken (speaks volumes of her skill as early years educator). She’s assertive but soft spoken
She has prepared daily report for my child when in her care
I’ve loved how she makes the child’s experience interesting by doing sensory activities alongside learning through play
Very highly recommended
