Martina's 5 Star Reviews

Wonderful nanny

Martina was hands down the best nanny we ever had. My kids are teenagers now, but we still talk about Tia fondly. She set the bar incredibly high and no one that came after came close. She is simply wonderful with children, babies and older, she is very creative herself and encourages creativity and curiousity in her wards. She is also a lot of fun, is very kind and has a great deal of patience. I remember feeling very nervous when I made the decision to get a nanny for the kids, you have to put a lot of trust in a stranger, but she came highly recommended by a friend and as soon as I met her, I knew she was the one! We were very lucky to have her - I knew my children were in very safe hands which really took the stress away from returning to work.

Kind, creative, funny and caring

Martina is an amazing nanny. She is incredibly creative, full of interesting ideas and schemes that kept my little boys completely entranced when they were small and then as they grew she adapted to their changing interests and ideas. They still love her and stay connected even though they are 17 and 19 - from a nanny she became a very good friend to them. Martina looked after my sons before they started school, my youngest from 4 months old and then would pick them both up from school, chatting to them, playing and making them their dinner. We all love her. She is intelligent, curious, thoughtful and fun. We can't recommend her highly enough.

Fabulous, loving and crewtive

Tia cared for our daughters from their earliest years and became an integral part of our family. She looked after Rosalind from the age of nine months and Alex from birth, forming a wonderful bond with both girls that has lasted to this day.

Tia has an exceptional ability to inspire curiosity, creativity and confidence in children. She nurtured our daughters’ love of art, music, reading and learning, always tailoring activities to suit their individual personalities and interests. She encouraged each of them to flourish in their own unique way.

Tia is incredibly reliable, trustworthy, kind and hardworking. She combines warmth with calm, consistent boundaries and has an intuitive understanding of children’s emotional and developmental needs. She approached every aspect of her role with professionalism, patience and genuine affection.

Although our daughters are now adults, the relationship they built with Tia has endured. They have maintained their own friendship with her long after she officially stopped caring for them, which says everything about the impact she had on their lives. The love, curiosity and creativity she fostered throughout their childhood have held them in excellent stead as they pursued very different paths. We are incredibly proud that one is now reading Ancient and Modern History at Oxford, while the other is studying Design at Cambridge. Tia played a significant role in helping them become the thoughtful, confident and accomplished young women they are today.

We feel incredibly fortunate that Tia was part of our family and cannot recommend her highly enough. Any family would be lucky to have her care for their children
