Active Care for Active Minds 🌿
Sporty Nannies and Mannies
Active care for active minds and bodies⛹🏻♂️
At Nest & Kin, we understand that today’s generation of children is growing up in a fast-paced, screen-filled world.
While technology has its place, many families feel their children are missing out on the simple joys of play, movement, and connection with the world around them.
Our Sporty Nannies & Mannies are here to bring that balance back — encouraging children to move, explore, and grow naturally, just like we did back in the day.
They focus on nurturing wellbeing, confidence, and curiosity, helping children develop a strong mind and body through active, mindful living.
⚽ For families who value activity, wellbeing and balance
Whether your child is full of energy, has a passion for the outdoors, or is already part of a professional sports academy, our sporty carers know how to channel that enthusiasm positively.
They work beautifully with children who are:
⚽ Training in professional or academy-level sports
💛 Living with ADHD or high-energy personalities
🌿 Passionate, creative, and curious — children who need structure and movement to thrive
⚽ Experience with families from top academies, including:
Arsenal Academy
Chelsea FC Foundation
Tottenham Hotspur Development
West Ham United Youth
Local athletics & swimming clubs across London
🏃♂️ Whether it’s early-morning training, after-school sessions, or helping children wind down with yoga or mindfulness, our sporty nannies know how to keep young athletes happy, motivated, and grounded.
Our Sporty Nannies and Mannies bring structure, positivity and purpose to every day — encouraging less screen time, more outdoor time, and a deep connection between mind, body and nature.
🌿 More than childcare — a philosophy of wellbeing
We believe every child deserves to grow up feeling strong, calm, and connected — not just entertained.
Through play, sports, mindfulness, and nature, our nannies and mannies help children build focus, resilience, and joy that lasts a lifetime.
“It’s about giving children the chance to move, feel, and grow — the way childhood should be.”
— Tamara De La Cruz Espinosa, Founder of Nest & Kin 🌿
💚 How our Sporty Nannies support your child
Our Sporty Nannies and Mannies are more than caregivers — they’re role models who inspire active, healthy, and confident children.
Each nanny is carefully chosen not only for their childcare experience but also for their energy, empathy, and passion for child development through movement and play.
🌿 They help children to:
Build self-confidence and focus through sport, teamwork and goal-setting.
Develop resilience and discipline — learning to try again, stay calm, and be proud of effort, not just success.
Improve emotional regulation — physical activity helps release stress and supports better sleep and focus.
Connect with nature and the outdoors, encouraging curiosity and mindfulness.
Learn the importance of healthy habits — balanced meals, hydration, and rest as part of a strong daily rhythm.
Strengthen their social and emotional skills through cooperative games and activities.

It’s not just about movement — it’s about rediscovering a childhood full of freedom, imagination, and connection.
