My Summary
About Me
Hello! I’m a mum of three and one of my children has autism, so I understand how important individual care is. I’m friendly, reliable, easygoing and love creating fun, safe environments where children feel relaxed and happy. I have a Master’s in Education (with a research focus on special needs support in KS1) and over 11 years of teaching experience.
I’ve worked with children from newborns to age 13 and am confident supporting those with additional needs. I also volunteered as a healthcare assistant during the Covid-19 pandemic, gaining basic first aid knowledge and experience in emergency response.
I’m available for:
• Babysitting
• Nanny roles (including live-out)
• Newborn care
• Special needs support
I have an enhanced DBS certificate, giving families added peace of mind when it comes to safety and trust.
I’m extremely organised, hygiene-conscious, and genuinely love being around children. They usually feel at ease in my care. References can be provided upon request.
Looking forward to meeting your little ones!

Ruhana is my go to Babysitter. I trust her with my kids. She demonstrated so much care towards my lil ones. For example, my youngest is 1 and has very bad eczema. She put on his creams consistently as instructed and gives him cuddles when he is stressed/unwell and feeds him very well. She has no troubles to put kids to sleep either.

Ruhana was more than my son’s nanny—she became family. From the moment she stepped into our home, her warmth and care were undeniable. She bonded with my baby instantly and showered him with so much with love and attention, she took him like her own and I will be forever grateful for her.
Ruhana’s time with us was brief but her impact will last a lifetime. We are so grateful for everything she did for our baby Anyone lucky enough to have her in their lives will feel the same❤️

Ruhana supported my daughter with special needs on weekend and after school by taking her out and about and with personal care. She bonded really well with her. Always on time and trustworthy plus reliable.
Best of luck with the future, Ruhana

We had an unusual request, we needed a babysitter for our hotel stay while we went to a conference and Ruhana was flexible, available, really open minded and the children immediately loved her. Our little one made a little trouble for her but she managed it professionally and emphatically.

Ruhana is such a blessing to our household and amazing how the boys took to her so easily. She is very warm and gentle and has that maternal touch a mum seeks when leaving a child to another to care for.
We are glad we found you Ruhana.
Thank you!
