Meghan Markle has revealed she has an ‘amazing’ nanny for her children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet who has been with the family for five years.

The Duchess of Sussex said the employee, whom she did not identify, takes her son and daughter from their home in Montecito, 

California, to their different schools on some mornings.

A fortnight earlier Meghan claimed she felt ‘juggling’ working and being a mother can be ‘incredibly overwhelming’, adding: ‘Oh my gosh, I just need a break.’  

In an appearance on The Jamie Kern Lima Show Meghan praised her nanny after being asked: ‘What’s your morning routine look like?’

She said: ‘This morning was different because Archie has a cold so he’s home from school, but I get up at 6:30 and gives me a minute to – I wish I could say I woke up and meditated – I don’t do that, I have the monitors on so I could hear both the kids.

‘They get up at 7 so I give myself a little bit of time to either put on workout clothes brush my teeth, get both of them up, I get them dressed, get them downstairs, make breakfast and then if I haven’t done their lunch boxes the night before then do that.’

Meghan added: ‘I love doing lunch boxes, it makes me very happy and writing a little note in their lunch boxes… If I don’t have meetings in the morning then I try to do school drop off.

‘They’re at two different schools, so that’s a big circuit. So from 6:30 in the morning on drop off mornings for me I’m not home till 9. And then after that I’ll just jump into meetings.

‘And then on other days, I’ll wake up and get them all set and then our amazing nanny who’s been with us for five years, she’ll take them to school for us.’

Smiling, she added: ‘I know, that’s the morning, that gets you to 9am.’

It comes two weeks after the second episode of the Meghan’s Confessions Of A Female Founder podcast was released on April 15, in which Meghan spoke about ‘juggling it all’ and nursing a poorly Archie and Lilibet at home.

Meghan revealed how, at the time of recording, one of her children had a common respiratory virus and the other flu.

Meghan, talking about the challenge of being a working mother, said: ‘With that comes the woman who is juggling it all and doing it all from home, being confident enough to tell the truth about what’s going on, because you can’t give grace to someone in the same way if you just have no sense of it…

‘My kids, for example, right now, one has RSV, the other has influenza A.

‘I hear a little pitter patter of feet upstairs, home from school, you know cough syrup all night and rubbing the back, and… we still find a way to show up for both.’

She also shared how being a ‘mom’ was her ‘favorite title’ and how Harry tries to encourage her to take a break from her children.

Meghan said: ‘I love being a mom so much. Favorite title. Love it.

‘It’s my favourite thing. It is the thing where you’re like, “Oh my gosh, I just need a break. I just need a minute.”‘

‘And the second you step into the other room, you go, “Oh but let me scroll through pictures of them endlessly on my phone”, and… my husband’s like, “My love, can you just give yourself a minute? Why don’t you go work out? Why don’t you go take a bath?”

‘I’m like I know, but I just want to cuddle. It’s the parenting paradigm where it is so full-on and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

‘But when working from home and parenting from home where they are completely converged, can feel incredibly overwhelming.’

During Harry and Meghan’s tell-all Netflix documentary in December 2022, the Duchess spoke about Archie’s former nanny Lorren Khumalo.

Khumalo, a pediatric nurse and consultant, took care of Archie as a newborn back in the UK and described the couple as ‘really hands-on parents’.

This followed claims in Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand’s 2020 book ‘Finding Freedom’ that Meghan and Harry let go of Archie’s night nurse during her second shift for being ‘unprofessional and irresponsible’.

The book stated: ‘Meghan and Harry felt they were forced to let the nurse go in the middle of her second night of work for being unprofessional and irresponsible.’

It went on to say that they hired a second night nurse who ‘did a fine job,’ but the experience with their first nanny meant ‘neither found themselves comfortable sleeping through the night without going to check on Archie regularly’.

A few weeks later, the couple chose to hire a daytime nanny and took on the night duty themselves, according to the book.
