Grace has been a wonderful nanny to our two children this year. We knew as soon as we met her that she was the right person for the job. She is warm, caring, intelligent, creative and very experienced. She has a wealth of ideas and the children have been happy and stimulated in her care.
They have had trips to parks, playgroups, story sessions and Grace even arranged a visit to the local fire station for our son who is 3. She has baked bread and cakes, made croissants, made slime and play dough, and she often brought her binoculars so they could go bird-watching.
Grace encourages routines and has clear expectations, and she manages behaviour in a gentle and fair way. The children have immense respect and affection for her. She has a huge amount of knowledge and experience in child development and has supported the children with key milestones, potty training our son within the first week, teaching him to get dressed independently, and teaching our 6 year old daughter to tie her shoelaces, amongst many other things. She takes the initiative and ensures they are always ready for the next stage of their development. She encourages healthy eating, is a great cook and is very clean and tidy.
Our children have had such a happy year with Grace and we will be very sad to see her go. We are delighted to recommend her in the highest possible terms.
