I am a professional nanny having trained at the Norland Training College in the early 80’s.
I then travelled the world working as a nanny and maternity nurse with the focus on twins and triplets.

"Patsi started working as night nanny to me and my twins when they were 4 weeks old. The first night it felt strange letting someone else look after my babies but Patsi has such warmth and experience that I saw very quickly that my twins would be in great hands. She helped me with breastfeeding, establishing a routine and as a first-time mum, with lots of questions and doubts, I found her to be very patient, knowledgeable, understanding and supportive of me too. Patsi stayed with me until they were 4 months old and in the end it was me that needed to be weaned off her, such a support was she!"

I come into your home overnight, between 9pm and 7am, to care for your baby while you sleep, preferably in the baby’s room.
If there are any feeds to be made for the night I will make these up. If baby is breastfed I will bring baby to mum for a feed and settle baby after.
Expressed milk will only be offered once breastfeeding is well established. I encourage good sleeping habits and routine and willingly offer any advice if it is requested.
I believe early bonding between baby and parents is very important and having a good night sleep enables new parents to cope more easily during the day.
Having the support and gentle advice on establishing good sleeping habits and coping with unusual crying moments in this early stage, builds confidence in parenting.
