Lois nannied for our 2 boys (2 and 4 years) for 2 weeks in April 2016, firstly as sole charge then with us on holiday.

Lois showed a level of care and maturity beyond her age, she cared for the boys excellently, kept them entertained indoors on wet days, outdoors on sunny days, as well as on long car journeys. She cooked for them, took care of their household needs, safety and discipline. Always ready with a change of clothes (potty training) or a towel (on the beach), meals were prepared in good time. She selected toys intelligently and continued their learning and education through reading and play. She soon took on board our lifestyle and children’s needs using her initiative such that extra food was always ready in the fridge to take on trips, day bags already packed.

Lois fitted in with the family excellently, always punctual and well presented. She followed our instructions with regard to the children’s routine, diet and limits closely.

We would thoroughly recommend Lois to anyone looking for a kind, attentive, well mannered (and well spoken) nanny.

We would call on Lois again should the need arise.
