Rochelle Humes admits she would be ‘lost’ if she didn’t have ‘help’ at home with her three kids – despite her previous ‘bad experience’ using a childminder

Rochelle Humes has admitted she would be ‘lost’ if she didn’t have ‘help’ at home, despite previously having a ‘bad experience’ using a childminder.

The former Saturdays star, 38, shares three children – Alaia Mai, Valentina and Blake – with her husband Marvin Humes, 40.

And during a Q&A session with her Instagram followers on Monday, Rochelle was asked if she has help at home to support her and Marvin when they are busy with work. 

Rochelle opened up on having two people help her with the kids and her house – her mother Roz Wiseman and a lady called Dita, who she said is also like family. 

She explained: ‘I do have help, I’m going to be honest, I’m not sure I’d be able to spin as many plates if I didn’t.

‘Obviously the children are in school 5 days a week (Blake in preschool), Marvin hosts radio 11-1 so his hours slot perfectly around the school run. We have an incredible lady (called Dita) who helps with the house.

‘She’s like family and has worked with us for years and then my mum helps us SO much, we would be lost without her. I feel so lucky that our nanny is their actual Nan. 

‘We always try and make sure we are pulling opposite work shifts so one of us is always there! The only time that’s not possible is when we record our TV show [The Hit List] and then the children stay with my mum.

‘I squeeze as much into school hours as humanly possible and take it week by week.’

Rochelle previously shared that she would never use a nanny again after experiencing trust issues in the past.

The This Morning host said she relies on her mum Roz to help out with family life, after having ‘a bad experience’ using a childminder.

She told Zoe Hardman and Georgia Dayton on Made By Mammas: The Podcast that it was ‘really awkward’ to be off work as the nanny would still be around the home.

She added: ‘I had a bit of a bad experience with like, trust issues and stuff in a previous nanny role before. So, it just didn’t work with me.’

It comes after Rochelle celebrated the Easter weekend in typical opulent fashion, sharing a gallery of snaps from her family’s stay at the £1.2k-a-night InterContinental Maldives Resort.

She wrote: ‘Easter break 2025. A wholesome week with our favourite people in our favourite place.

‘@intercontinental_maldives Thanks for looking after us SO well ✨ (not an ad, Marv was playing here over Easter so we tagged along and had THE best time)’.

The Intercontinental Maldives is located in the Raa Atoll, a 35-minute seaplane ride from Malé, and is famed for the many aquatic adventures available to guests .

Divers can submerge themselves pristine water and fast flowing channels in the company of nurse sharks the size of people carriers, while snorkellers can float across soft coral gardens alongside green sea turtles and blizzards of reef fish.

Baby manta rays frolic in the coral reefs surrounding the resort, while villas have a cool contemporary Maldivian design, and every guest is enтιтled to complimentary breakfast, afternoon tea, evening aperitifs and soft drinks throughout the day.

Rochelle also showed how she keeps her slim physique and added in a mirror selfie with her sister at the gym.

She previously joked on Instagram that the pair looked so similar that their genes had been copy and pasted.

Last year, the couple revealed they are building their 'forever home' after moving out of their £3.3million North London family abode (family pictured in November 2024)

The family also appeared to be enjoying some Easter treats and gift bags of goodies were also featured.

The presenter – who is also a mum to Alaia-Mai, 11, Valentina, seven – said planning ahead and taking time out for self care has helped her be a better parent.

She told Mother & Baby: ‘I just think when things get overwhelming, you just have to try and find time to take care of yourself in all of that.

‘I do as much as I can the night before.

‘That’s just little things just to make me feel like I’m halfway there.

‘So whether that’s laying out the kids uniforms, or filling up their water bottles because that’s one thing down for the morning or even laying out my own outfit.’
