Thank you for visiting my website, I'm Anne and I'm the gentle nanny. When I was little, I loved playing with my dolls, then looking after other peoples children as soon as I was old enough to babysit. Babysitting then led to my school placement in a Montessori nursery, before spending three years at college.
I live in Berkshire with my husband Ade, and two boys. We also have two Bengals and a Cavapoo. Through having our two boys we were faced with numerous issues affecting their sleep, which led to now helping other parents offering a holistic approach to sleep as sleep is about more than just sleep.
I spent three years gaining my NNEB certificate and Diploma.
I have an OCN in Gentle Sleep coaching certificate and an OCN Maternity nurse certificate. I'm also a breastfeeding supporter. Over the last few years I have completed courses in children's nutrition and allergies.
Nothing can prepare you for the sleepless nights you might face as a parent. I have two boys of my own so I have experienced the sleep deprivation firsthand. My eldest son had colic and silent reflux then my second didn't sleep through till he was 5 years old due to various health reasons. A lack of sleep is draining.
