At Poppy & Pea, we know just how special the role of a nanny can be. Having worked as a nanny for over six years, I’ve experienced firsthand the privilege of supporting children through their everyday moments and building meaningful, lasting relationships with families. I understand how important it is to find families who share your values, appreciate the care you provide, and trust you with what matters most.
Poppy & Pea was created to thoughtfully connect passionate, dedicated nannies with wonderful families. We’re committed to creating meaningful matches built on respect, trust and genuine connection so both nannies and families feel comfortable and supported.
Someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with children and forming bonds that feel natural and lasting.
We look for nannies with the knowledge, skills and practical experience to provide quality care. We value a commitment to learning, building and continually developing as a nanny.
We expect our nannies to be attentive, think ahead and take initiative without waiting to be asked. This means recognising children's needs, being aware of their surroundings and taking responsibility for creating a safe environment.
We look for people who genuinely love working with children and take pride in what they do. We value nannies who are engaged, bring a positive attitude and help children feel safe, supported and encouraged to learn.
When you become a Poppy & Pea nanny, you’re never just placed in a role and left on your own. We take time to really understand you, so we can match you with families where you’ll thrive. Along the way, we check in, support you, and celebrate the difference you make.

We have had the absolute pleasure of having Charli as our nanny for just over three years, and she has truly become an invaluable part of our family. She began caring for our son William when he was 18months old - he is now 5 1/2 and preparing to start school next year - and she has lovingly cared for our daughter Sophie since birth. Throughout this time, Charli has been consistently dependable, calm, and nurturing, and both of our children absolutely adore her. Charli has a natural ability to connect with kids of all ages. She creates a warm, safe, and engaging environment and always goes the extra mile to support their development. From imaginative play and outdoor adventures to helping build routines and encouraging learning, she has played a significant role in shaping who our children are becoming. We are incredibly grateful for the love, stability, and joy Charli has brought into our home.
