My Summary
About Me
Hello. My name is Helena, I’m 47, I’ve always lived in this area but I’ve just moved to Tonbridge.
My Experience
I have 2 daughters of my own, they are now 16 & 18. Before having my own children I worked for many families in Sussex, Kent and the USA. I have many years experience with children and babies of all ages. I also have vast experience in running and organising a household. I've worked with families in the build up to the arrival of a new baby. I provide childcare and support which can be ad hoc, before or after school, regular hours or cover when needed. I have over 20 years experience with sleep and feeding routines and can help with breast feeding support, weaning and potty training. I offer a dream feed service if needed as this can help you get a more lengthy stretch of sleep at night. I live in a beautiful part of Kent and I love the outdoors. I have a car and a full driving license.
My Qualifications
I have NVQ training and full paediatric first aid. Also an update to date DBS certificate.

Helena looks after our 1 year old and 3 year old for full days twice a week and she is absolutely amazing. We feel so lucky to have found her. Helena is great with both the kids always arranging age appropriate activities and keeping them stimulated. She’s highly experienced and fit into our family schedule seamlessly. Helena is a very calm, proactive and reliable.

Helena clearly has vast experience and is keen to bring a positive 'extra parenting' approach to any family - she doesn't just take care of your child whilst you are not around she has a wonderful approach to continuing good habits / routines which is super important at these development ages. She is fab at taking Luca out as he is a very active little boy and loves to run and explore and he loves his days out with Helena. I know when I am working I am leaving Luca in the most competent hands. I would highly recommend to any family with children of all ages.

Helena is incredible with my son, she keeps him engaged, doesn't give into his tantrums and he's always excited for their bus and train adventures!

Helena is fantastic. An ever-present help to our family, we love having her around.
A safe pair of hands, and a pleasure for us, and the children. Her wealth of experience with young children shines through daily.
She brings a perfect balance of warmth, kindness and care whilst clearly setting boundaries for our 7 and 4 year old.
Helena is organised, productive and proactive. Reliable, prompt and reassuring.
Can’t recommend her enough.

The lovely Helena, looked after our daughter at a hotel while we were at a function. Super helpful and accommodating. Would highly recommend. Never used this website before but it worked really well.
