About Lindsey

44 years old Speaks English
I am a mum of 2 little boys born August 2010 and November 2014 I have first hand experience of the joys of a newborn but also the difficulty of sleepless nights, establishing breastfeeding and trying to get into some kind of routine. I have 16yrs childcare experience from babysitting as a teenager and running a Brownie pack to my nursing experience and night nanny and nanny experience. I have nursed very sick children and children with medical problems both within special care baby units and a variety of specialist and general childrens wards including premature babies with NG tubes, anaphylaxsis, Epilepsy, Asthmatics, Excema, Diabetes, Aspergers Sydrome, ADHD. I also have personal experience of tongue tie, silent reflux and cows milk protein intolerance. I have been a maternity nanny and ad-hoc nanny for 12yrs and have cared for babies from a few days old including twins and supported parents with routines, establishing breastfeeding and also bottle feeding and given parents that much needed nights sleep. I have experience of trouble shooting working which has included one-off visits to advise and support parents accompanied by texts and emails in the following days to assist them with any issues they may have.
