As a qualified NNEB Nursery Nurse, holding an NVQ Level 4 in play specialism and a Dip.HE in child counselling, she understands how children respond to changes in routine and environment-and how to help them feel safe,settled and happy through the theraputic use of play.

Before launching her wedding nanny service, Debbie worked as a kensington nanny,supporting families with high standards of care and discretion.

Brilliant nanny!

Debbi was fantastic, the booking process was straight forward and communication on the run up to the day was great. I could not rate her more highly. She kept my two (2 and 4) entertained from start to finish. Debbi kept us updated throughout the day. She was very professional. She was present throughout the day but blended discreetly into the background when necessary. If you are thinking about whether or not you need a wedding nanny you definitely do!! And I am so pleased we found Debbi.

The cherry on top of our special day! Don’t hesitate- hire Debbie!

We were very blessed to have Debbie with us during our wedding day for my two very energetic boys aged 3 & 4. She was ever so patient and courteous, and knowledgeable in taking care of our sons,handling them with skillful hands that can only come from years of experience. Debbie managed to blend in to our wedding day like a family member, whilst remaining professional and calmly in control of the boys at all times. Our boys were immediately comfortable with her (and they’re not with everyone) and loved playing games and exploring with her. We weren’t sure at first whether hiring a nanny for the day would be the right call but I can say with absolute assurance it totally was. It gave us such piece of mind to know that although they were included in most aspects of the wedding, we had a professional set of eyes on them, keeping them engaged and nurturing them at all times, so we could relax and not worry what they were up to if they were out of our eye-line whilst we were chatting to our guests or having photos taken etc. Debbie ensured that their needs were always met and that they enjoyed themselves too!. We are truly grateful to have had her with us during our special day and couldn't have asked for more. Honestly, the amount of time we heard and saw our sons laughing away with her was just so so heartwarming and absolutely priceless. A cherry on top of our special day.

Definitely a recommendation to

Excellent Nanny

Debbie is an absolutely exceptional Nanny and is so knowledgeable in her field. My son age 6 has additional needs and Debbie catered to what he needed the entire time he was in her care, she planned special games and recommended some new things to us. I felt 100% comfortable with Debbie looking after our son and will always use her in the future.

Meet Louise - Wedding Nanny, The Essex Wedding Nanny Team

My name is Louise, and I am a fully qualified childcare professional with an NNEB Diploma in Childcare and Education, bringing many years of experience as a private nanny and across a variety of childcare settings.

I have supported children of all ages through nurturing care, structured play, and age-appropriate activities, always prioritising their emotional wellbeing, safety, and individual needs.

Alongside my childcare career, I have worked within the wedding industry as a Wedding and Events Coordinator, supporting couples in planning and delivering their special day. This experience gives me a strong understanding of how important calm organisation, discretion, and reliability are—particularly when children are part of the celebration.

As part of The Essex Wedding Nanny team, I am passionate about providing a safe, engaging, and supportive environment for children, allowing parents and guests to relax and be fully present on the day, knowing their little ones are in professional and caring hands.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, and socialising. I very much look forward to caring for your children and being part of such a special occasion.
