About Lydia

Experience: 15 yrs

Hi! I'm a nanny with 15+ years experience, especially with newborns and infants. I'll be available for care in July and am happy to consider part-time, full-time, or temp roles (24 hours+/week). I'm especially skilled at supporting new parents, offering calm confident care and helping families find their rhythm. I have extensive experience with sleep training, feeding/transitioning to solids, developmental milestones, and sick care. While I've held many long-term nanny positions, I've also taken temporary roles (alongside my freelance work as an artist), which have made me adaptable, confident stepping into new homes, and ready to support a wide range of household needs. (Aka I've seen it all!) Safety is always my priority, followed by encouraging little ones to explore, play and learn through fun activities (art/sensory based, stroller walks/parks). If you're looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and nurturing nanny, I'd love to connect!

Lydia is truly everything you could ever dream of in a nanny! We were in search of a short-term nanny for 5 weeks for our 4 month old, this was our first experience with someone other than my husband and I caring for our baby so we were a bit nervous for the transition. We were SO incredibly lucky to have found Lydia - she instantly set us at ease and our son warmed to her immediately. She is such a calm and nurturing presence, keeping our baby entertained all day, handling his nap and bottle schedule like a pro as well as staying on top of his bottle washer and laundry. Lydia always arrived on time, was incredibly communicative and flexible to stay late on short notice when our work schedules ran over. We are travelling for 2 months and are so sad to not have Lydia as our permanent nanny, but couldn’t recommend her more highly. We would absolutely book her again, your little ones will be so loved in Lydia’s care. Thank you Lydia!!
