ABOUT ME
I’m Hope – professional nanny, freelance writer, amateur crafter, gourmet baker, and founder of the HOPE FOR NANNIES program. Being a nanny, I’m a big fan of craft & play, pretty colours, giggling children and cuddly babies. Based by the water in Sydney, Australia, I try to lead a healthy lifestyle, am a green smoothie lover, dark chocolate addict, occasional runner, and spend way too much time shopping online. On this blog, I strive to foster a friendly community for nannies to connect. My purpose is to support women in the childcare industry to take control of their life, their careers, and ultimately their happiness, to achieve their dreams. You are not “just the nanny”. Be courageous.
When I’m not blogging, I enjoy reading, travelling, dreaming of a parisian lifestyle, baking indulgent treats and drinking lots of coffee. Oh, and I’m a total Pinterest addict. You can follow the NANNY SHECANDO Pinterest boards here.

BEHIND THE SCENES
I go by the name of “Nanny Shecando” because I’m still waiting for my title as superwoman. Just kidding. Although I’m sure you know that having kids and looking after them can be a tough gig. The days can seem endless, the invasion of personal space seem intoxicating, and the endless nonsensical chatter seem draining. Then again, I’m sure you love the cuddles and the smiles and the high fives just as much as I do.
