A Bit About Me
As a recipient of the esteemed National Nursery Examination Board Gold Standard Childcare qualification, I proudly hold the title of a highly skilled and knowledgeable Infant Specialist Maternity Nurse.
Since 1991, my professional journey has encompassed a diverse range of pivotal roles, providing invaluable expertise and care to children from the moment of their birth. These engagements have transpired within the esteemed confines of hospital maternity wards, esteemed private households, as well as esteemed local authority and private nurseries.
My reach extends far beyond the borders of the United Kingdom, as I actively engage in my profession throughout the vast expanse of Europe, the Middle East and Australasia.
Committed to perpetual growth and advancement, I actively partake in a vibrant international network comprising distinguished childcare and education specialists.
Notably, I assume the role of Principal within The National Nursery Examination Board Old Collegians, a distinguished association that ensures I stay abreast of cutting-edge trends and regulations within the field.
The collective weight of my exceptional qualifications and extensive experience has positioned me as an esteemed figure among the realm of maternity nurses, both within the United Kingdom and on a global scale. I have earned the unwavering trust and patronage of high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals, who recognise and appreciate the exceptional level of care and expertise I provide. In return for my gold standard infant care I am one of the most highly compensated maternity nurses in the United Kingdom and internationally.
I possess a multinational background and benefit from visa-free travel privileges in the UK and Australia, with pending approval in the EU. This makes me an ideal choice for clients seeking a seamless and hassle-free experience when hiring a maternity nurse who can readily travel across these regions without visa restrictions.
