Anant Ambani’s childhood nanny shares ‘shocking’ insights about Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani, her salary is….
Lalita Dsilva, a pediatric nurse, spent her early years caring for Anant Ambani and has recently shared some exclusive insights about her time spent with the Ambani family. By the time Lalita became a part of the Ambani household, Reliance was already making waves in the industry. Yet, what struck her most about Mukesh and Nita Ambani was how grounded they were. Lalit shared about Mukesh and Nita Ambani that were just like any other parents, wanting to give their kids the most normal life possible.
Dsilva was awe-struck as she stepped into the towering 19-floor residence of the prominent Ambani family. It’s probable she meant Sea Wind, their former dwelling in Cuffe Parade. This stunning home was once the abode for all Ambani family members: Dhirubhai Ambani, who was the mastermind behind Reliance, his beloved wife Kokilaben, and their sons Mukesh and Anil, each with their respective families.

“When I entered that house, I got a very warm welcome. I never expected that with such big people,” Dsilva said in an Instagram Live conversation with Lovely Guptan where she recalled Nita Ambani as a very warm employer.
“Nita ma’am was so warm, and even Mukesh sir. They just wanted their children to be raised normally,” said the paediatric nurse who, later in her career, found internet fame as “Taimur’s nanny.”
“It was not like ‘we are big people, so we have some protocol. Do this, do that’ – no, nothing. I was very shocked to see that,” Lalita Dsilva added.
Lalita D’Silva, known for her work with high-profile children Taimur Ali Khan and Jeh Ali Khan, would rather not be labeled as a nanny. Preferring the title of pediatric nurse, she has clarified her role in a recent interview. Her compensation, interestingly enough, has been compared with that of the nation’s Prime Minister.
Salary drawn by Lalita Dsilva
In a candid conversation with Hindi Rush, Lalita was asked about the paycheck she got for tending celebrity kids, particularly if Rs 2.5 lakhs was her real income. To this, she replied, chuckling lightly, “Rs 2.5 lakhs? How I wish it were true!” She added, smiling warmly, “I hope your words turn into reality. But these are just baseless murmurs.”
Lalita has stressed that within wealthy families, the responsibilities of nannies and pediatric nurses are distinctly different. Having been with the Pataudi family since the birth of Taimur, Lalita’s considerable paycheck has sparked a fair amount of speculation ever since she assumed this role.
“At night I wake up at least 4-5 times during night. I only get rest when I know that the child is with the family members, otherwise, I am always alert,” Lalita stated.
