About Chaima

I care for your child the way I would want someone to care for mine

I am Chaima, 25, born and raised in Amsterdam. I live here with my husband and our two children, aged 1.5 and 2.5.

How my experience helps at homeWhat you will notice

I bring calm, structure, warmth and fun into your home.

After qualifying as a childcare professional, I spent several years at CompaNanny, working with a Montessori-inspired approach. I then worked independently across day nurseries, preschools and after-school programmes, gaining broad experience with children from birth to age 12.

I later supported children with intellectual disabilities at a specialised day centre, including children with Down syndrome, autism and developmental language disorders. Every day was different. That experience taught me to quickly understand what each child needs and adapt my support with care.

Now that I am a mother myself, I deliberately choose personal, small-scale babysitting at home. I support families who need a few hours during the day or want to enjoy an evening out with genuine peace of mind. Building trust with a family is what makes this work so rewarding for me.

My training, professional experience and motherhood have shown me how much safety, attention and structure matter. I am caring, energetic, honest and dependable. I communicate openly, keep my promises and calmly let you know how things are going during and after the babysitting.

Clear for you

I keep agreements, updates and handovers clear, so you always know where you stand.

That little bit of extra help

I help with child-related household tasks when needed and I am happy to cook if requested.
