At Pro Nannies, we take pride in ensuring that every family and nanny we work with feels supported and understood. That is one of the reasons we’re thrilled to have Natalie as part of our expert team. With over 14 years of experience in childcare and a background in paediatric nursing, she brings a unique combination of academic knowledge and hands-on experience that truly sets her apart from the average nanny.
A Lifelong Dedication to Childcare & Development
Natalie boasts an Advanced Diploma in Paediatric Nursing, which she earned from Northumbria University. This formal training equipped her with a comprehensive understanding of child development from birth to adulthood. But her true strength lies in her ability to apply this knowledge in real-world scenarios—having worked as an au pair, nursery nurse, private nanny, special needs nanny, and hospital nanny both in the UK and abroad!
Her career has focused on children aged 0-6, allowing her to gain valuable insights into early childhood development, meaning that Natalie's professional and academic experience informs her technique to helping families thrive.
A Neurodivergent Perspective That Enhances Inclusivity
One of Natalie’s standout qualities is her ability to bring her neurodivergent perspective into her work. Diagnosed with Autism, she understands the challenges and needs of neurodivergent individuals—both children and adults—better than most. This personal experience allows her to ensure Pro Nannies remains inclusive and capable of providing tailored support for nannies and families who may also be neurodivergent or require specialised care.
Her analytical thinking and attention to detail — common traits among neurodivergent individuals, help her create effective solutions, so whether she’s advising on the recruitment of nannies, or helping families to find the right match, she’s usually spot on!
Child Development Expert & Recruitment Advisor
Natalie isn’t just a part of the Pro Nannies team—she’s a vital force for change, inclusivity, and understanding in the childcare industry. Natalie's academic background and hands-on experience with young children give her an edge when it comes to understanding child development. She also knows what qualities and qualifications are crucial when matching nannies with families and it is this expertise that informs every decision she makes at Pro Nannies.
Thanks to Natalie’s knowledge and insights, Pro Nannies is better equipped to support families with diverse needs, ensuring that every nanny we work with is prepared to offer the best possible care.
