A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Nokwethemba but my friends and family call me Luuh, short for my middle name and I have a strong background in childcare with two years of experience as an au pair caring for toddlers and a five-year-old, plus a year working at a pre-K. I also hold a Certificate in Medical Assisting, which gives me extra knowledge in health, safety, and emergency awareness, something I know parents value.

I enjoy creating safe, fun, and engaging environments for children, whether it’s helping with routines, planning educational play, reading together, or exploring outdoors. My pre-K experience also taught me the importance of structure, social skills, and learning through play.

Families describe me as reliable, patient, and caring. I love supporting children’s growth at every stage, and I bring both professional training and genuine passion to every family I work with.
