A New Era of Pregnancy & Postpartum Care
Most pregnancy apps are made for the baby. We made Carea for you. Because real pregnancy isn’t always glowy- sometimes it’s messy, scary, or lonely. And you shouldn’t have to hide that.

My journey in childcare began in 1999 after completing a BTEC National Diploma in Childhood Studies, followed by an HNC in Early Years. I started my career in the day nursery sector, gaining hands-on experience with children of all ages and working my way up to a unit manager. However, my true passion lay in Nannying. In 2002, I joined a wonderful family, marking the start of my fulfilling career as a Nanny.
After years of dedicated Nannying, I welcomed my first daughter, Ava, in 2012, followed by Olivia in 2014. Becoming a mother deepened my understanding of the importance of high-quality childcare, reinforcing my commitment to helping families find the best care for their little ones.
In 2020, I founded Cheshire Nannies—a service dedicated to connecting families with exceptional Nannies who share my passion for providing outstanding home-based childcare.

Nanny Kelly Baby Basics
Robyn and Nanny Kelly are the cofounders of @nannykellybb – the app that brings expert baby care into your pocket. They met when Kelly, a maternity nanny with over 25 years of experience, supported Robyn through the early weeks with her first baby. With a background in nutrition and business, Robyn is passionate about helping new mums navigate that postpartum period, which can be a rocky one. She quickly realised the world needed to benefit from Kelly’s genius – not just one family at a time. Together, they built NKBB to give parents clear, kind, real-time support from someone who’s seen it all (Kelly) and someone who’s lived it (Robyn)
