Why nanny Rosie returned to Kenya for good
After several years working abroad, Rosie made the decision to return to Kenya in June 2024, motivated by personal and family priorities.
The choice to come home was deeply personal, as Rosie’s children needed her presence more than ever.
Her children were still healing from the impact of her previous marriage, and Rosie felt she could best support them by being close.

This wasn’t Rosie’s first visit home, as she initially returned to Kenya temporarily. During her farewell at the airport, an emotional moment went viral when Rosie’s Lebanese employer’s twin daughters clung to her, unwilling to let her go.
Though reassured by their parents that Rosie would return, the girls were visibly upset.
What Rosie has been up to since returning home
Returning to Kenya didn’t only mean spending time with her children. Rosie is now building a new chapter, aiming to establish a supportive home for children of Kenyan women who travel abroad for work.
Recognising that some mothers lack reliable childcare options, Rosie hopes to create a place where these women can leave their children with peace of mind.
She has also found her footing as a social media influencer. She collaborates with various brands, bringing her personality and authenticity to her followers.
