About Me
Elle Gamble
I was born and raised in Shepperton Surrey, but my life took me to Milan, Italy when I was 21. For 20 years, I worked in the fashion and TV industry, experiencing the highs and lows of fast-paced, high-stress environments. When my son was born in 2010, my focus shifted to creating a peaceful, nurturing home life for him. I started a vintage shop on Etsy and hosted Airbnb guests, allowing me to work from home and be present for my son.
As he grew older and started school, I became interested in teaching English to children. This led me to a career as a childcarer, looking after babies and young children full-time. I found immense joy in caring for and nurturing little ones.
My diverse background has taught me to adapt quickly to changing circumstances, to stay calm under pressure, and to empathise with people from all walks of life. I bring this wealth of experience to support new mothers and families during this transformative time in their lives. I am honoured to guide, encourage, and empower you as you navigate the journey of birth and parenthood.
