Description

Hi, I’m Carissa, a dedicated nanny passionate about supporting the mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being of children. I am a British citizen recently returned to Trinidad, and I’m eager to contribute my skills in meaningful, heart-centered ways.

I’m conscientious, organized, and efficient, with over a decade of experience caring for homes and families as a nanny. My work has often included caring for cats and dogs, so I’m very comfortable looking after your pets as part of my routine. I’ve also provided long-term and short-term house-sitting services for families in Trinidad and London, ensuring their homes and animals are safe, tidy, and lovingly cared for.

I take pride in being mature, kind, and an excellent communicator—offering peace of mind to anyone who entrusts me with their home. I’m always happy to connect via video call to see if we’re a good fit.

My Journey

I was born in Trinidad 🇹🇹, a beautiful Caribbean island full of music, warmth, and nature. At 21, I moved to London, where I spent my 20s working as a Montessori teacher and nanny/tutor while traveling widely. After nine meaningful years there, I spent time in California, where the progressive, creative communities deeply inspired me.

From there, I moved to Ecuador for three years. With its low cost of living and slow pace, I was able to volunteer in local schools and orphanages—one of the most rewarding experiences of my life.

Becoming a yoga teacher was another important chapter. I later lived in Bali for two years, fully immersed in its health and wellness culture, rituals, ceremonies, and the serenity of the rice fields.

Most recently, I returned to the Caribbean to reconnect with family and friends while teaching yoga in schools.

My Plans for 2026

Next year, from Jan to September 2026, I’ll be spending time in the UK, exploring different community-focused towns and villages. My intention is to experience slow-living, creative, and nature-based communities as I consider where I might want to settle in the future. During this time, I will be available for house sits in areas such as Frome, Glastonbury, Brighton, and across Wales. I am considering relocating to the UK and would like to experience being in places outside of London that could feel like my new 'home'.

Thank you for considering my profile. I’m looking forward to connecting, caring for your home and pets, and offering you peace of mind while you’re away. 🙏🏼
