I'm Elke an experienced, energetic, warm and reliable maternity nurse and night nanny based in London with excellent fluency in English and outstanding references.I have over 33 years of experience with newborns, especially twins and premature babies. I see my job as taking care of both, the parent and the baby. Helping a New Mum to rest and recover from her delivery.

The qualities I value are intelligence, initiative, honesty, skill, sound judgment, energy, creativity and fun and a real sensitivity to the baby’s particular character and needs.I ensure a new mum gets full and proper rest and sleep to aid her recovery.
I’m able to provide the professionalism, structure, variety and stimulation of care at its best but within the own home and tailored to the family’s own requirements. It is important to me that I appreciate the importance of taking on board the family’s own parenting style and preferences.
