Louenna Hood BEM, qualified Norland Nanny and Maternity Nurse, has cared for over 100 children over the past two decades, travelled the world with families, including high profile and royal families.

Having been a go-to support for many parents over the years, Louenna wanted to help thousands of parents, not just those who employ her, on their most important journey … parenting!  By making her expertise accessible to all via a dedicated parenting support “The Louenna app”, Louenna wants to help create happy families and thriving children. The multi-award winning app launched in June 2020 and has amassed a growing number of 50k downloads, has hundreds of 5* reviews on the app store and is often referred to as the ‘nanny in your pocket.’ 

In March 2022, Louenna raised a staggering £190k for Ukrainian refugee families and as a result was presented with a ‘Point of Light’ award by the Prime Minister and a British Empire Medal in King Charles’ 2023 New Year’s Honors.

In August 2022 Louenna created 'Louenna's Nannies,' a childcare agency with a difference, with Louenna wanting to fully support nannies and parents in their matching process. In March 2024, Louenna's Nannies acquired MyTamarin agency, to provide even greater opportunities for our parents and nannies. This gives parents access to a wider range of experienced nannies, and the benefit of a wonderful new online platform which will allows them to communicate with prospective nannies without us being in the middle going backwards and forwards!

In May 2024, Louenna released her first book ' Your Baby's First Year: A Day by Day Guide,' available at Waterstones and Amazon. This is her parenting handbook that offers tips, facts and advice for every day of baby's first year.
