The most wonderful, caring and loving Nanny

Vicky is our nanny at the moment and if we could take her with us when we move house, she would always be our nanny!
I feel so lucky to have found her and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to any family, who would find themselves truly lucky to have her in their world!
Vicky is a loving and devoted mother herself, as well as hugely experienced within chidlcare and I think that is what makes me feel so relaxed, knowing that my children are in safe and caring hands when I go to my meetings. She has so much warmth and genuine affection for my children and they adore her.
She has been looking after my 10 month old daughter, making her lunches, giving her her bottles, putting her down for naps - but above all - making her smile and laugh with lovely games and activities. And then with my 3 year old son, Vicky has endless energy and enthusiasm for playing games with him and keeping up with all of his 3 year old imagination! She has wonderful energy and is happy to do things the way that is best for us.
Vicky has been brilliant at working around my schedule, which as some one who is self-employed has been a godsend as things can change quickly and Vicky has always been so understanding at any last minute adjustments and always reliable.
As I say, the only reason we will not be able to continue having Vicky as our Nanny is because we are moving to the other side of London, and I feel really sad about that as my children will miss her hugely - but I will also miss her company too.
I really hope that the right family find her as she really is very special.

Wonderful, safety conscious and fun

Nessy is helping me with my two year old at the moment and she is doing such a lovely job. She is very keen to make sure that everything is done correctly for the way we like things and on top of this she is aware of safety issues you need to be across when looking after little ones, which is comforting as a parent. She makes games educational and even when they are playing with paints she will discuss the colours or do counting with my son. She also helps him with his please and thank you's, again, something that is very important for us as manners will get you a long way in life - so it's nice that she naturally has this in her that she will help guide a child.
Our son has fun with her and I feel relaxed in knowing that he is in good care when I have to leave for meetings.

Simply Wonderful Nanny

Zoe was our nanny for a year to our little boy and we could not have been happier to have her in our home and as part of our family.
She was an absolute joy and our little boy just adored her and would be waiting at the door with excitement for when she arrived.
I always felt Rafe was in safe hands with Zoe, especially important in London, she has a great awareness about her and gets stuck in there with the kids to play with him (even whilst heavily pregnant!) - she isn't the kind of nanny to sit back and be texting on her phone whilst your child plays on the climbing frame!...she would take him to softplay, the park, to play groups and out and about whilst helping me with errands (which was always much appreciated).
Zoe has unending positive energy, which meant that Rafe was always happy and laughing with the games and fun they would play and have. But equally good at calming him and getting him down for a nap.
She would help me with his meal times and often get more food in him than I could manage!
I also really appreciated Zoe's help around the house when Rafe was napping, without even having to ask she would just start clearing up and helping me with chores...
We were so, so sad when our time with Zoe came to an end but of course thrilled for her that she now has her own little girl - who will have a fabulous mummy.
We still keep in touch and hopefully Zoe will be able to help us out with our son again in the future, but I can not recommend her as a person to help with child care enough, she truly is wonderful and will bring happiness to any family lucky enough to have her!
