1. Please introduce yourself: Name, what you do and how many children you have.
My name is Filsane Gure, co-founder of Nanny’s Intuition – Nanny Agency – and mother of two children. We help stressed parents who feel like they are sinking due to lack of time in an ocean of parental and work demands.
2. How do you manage to juggle work and life balance as a mother?
The secret to my work-life balance lies in recognising that “having it all” doesn’t mean “doing it all alone.” By embracing wellness professionals, I successfully home-educate my children, support their personal and mental wellbeing while fully committing to my Nanny Agency.
3. What top tips would you give to any working mum?
Organising my diary every Sunday for the week ahead makes me feel organised and naturally reduces my stress. I set quality time with my children which they love and fills all our cups. Success to me is about making sure our lives align with our values and regularly review this with my family. I am not shy in asking for help to ensure our needs are met.
4. What do you love most about London? Do you have a favourite spot with your children?
As a family, we like to embrace the vibrant and diverse rich cultures London has to offer. We enjoy the opportunity to connect with people and communities by attending festive events. As Londoners, we still enjoy visiting Landmarks Like Tower Bridge, parks and museums.
5. How do you define quality ‘me-time’?
“Me time” isn’t something I do often but is so sweet when it happens. On those special days, I enjoy sneaking off to the spa for a massage or facial.
6. What is your favourite thing, least favourite thing about parenthood?
The best thing about parenthood is watching my children turn everyday moments into pure magic! I’m the family memory keeper – writing down their funny quotes and treasuring our holiday videos. The hardest part was those midnight wakeups, they were brutal – let’s just say me and sleep have a very special relationship.
7. Tell us something people don’t know about you.
I fear heights but always fight to overcome them. I have stood on the edge of cliffs, gone paragliding, went on the London Eye and the Eiffel Tower.
8. Given we are all about embracing Motherhood, what advice would you give a first-time mum?
Don’t compare, every child has strengths and weaknesses. Don’t worry too much as things have a way of working themselves out. I can’t express enough how using my intuition has played an important part in raising my children, as your gut feeling will tell you when you are making the right decisions for your family. Most importantly enjoy quality time with your children as they really do grow up fast.
9. I’m a mum and I own a Nanny Agency and love helping other mums.
10. Finally, please let us know what you love most about Kensington Mums.
I love how Kensington Mums provide a nurturing supportive environment where you feel a sense of belonging. They offer great information for Kensington families and my favourite part is connecting and sharing experiences with other mums. Thank you for creating this amazing space.
