About Me
Looking for a reliable nanny ASAP. Only looking for a well-experienced nanny, who can use their own initiative, and truly loves kids. I have been fortunate to have two fantastic Nannies, one I found on here ( her profile is full of 5-star glowing reviews), and she has been with my son since he was one year old ( over 6 years ). She has never failed me once they bake cupcakes, cookies etc. Due to her circumstances, she can no longer commit. My other nanny whom I met at the nursery still helps out and has regular work, she too is amazing! Blessed and lucky, finding the right nanny isn’t easy and takes time and effort.
I want someone sensible with lots of experience who truly loves nanny work and dealing with kids. Every so often, I will put out tester nanny work ( obviously paid work) until I find someone suitable.
I need to see a clear demonstration that you have been a 1-1 nanny before or worked at a nursery or school setting as the difference is huge. You need energy, resilience, a good education, and lots of common sense as I do not want to micromanage anyone. No slang language. Only apply if you can commit, are reliable and well-experienced. Thank you xxx
The role will include:
- Driving my son to and from playgroups after school or swimming.
- Kids' activities, Homework and bath time.
- putting my son to bed.
- running the home/ daily pics and updates
I would like someone reliable, active, presentable, patient, a team player, positive, fun, with lots of common sense and a good role model
Cooking for my son / small housekeeping duties required.
You must be available and fully committed
Full enhanced DBS ( if you do not have this or are willing to apply, unfortunately, we cannot move forward). The rate of pay we agree on is what you will be paid.
There’s plenty of work for the right nanny.

As someone who use nanny service regularly and also have a personal nanny in my home town. Came on here to read up on profiles as the nanny agency my work normally use were closed due to bank holiday. Called lulu 2 days before to check her availability, very prompt and thorough. We communicated through out! Lulu was happy to bring home cooked meals and little snacks to my hotel for free! She looks very glamorous, mature, sensible and definitely has all the credentials. Very pleased! Prices are on the higher scale, but you certainly get a proper childcare service as I do not like to be disturbed when I am out with “ hello, what do you want me to do” unless it’s an emergency I do not like to be bothered! Lulu has her cute first aid kit and her valid ID which she brought along. Well done! Very pleased

I normally do not write negative reviews, but for 2hrs paid work became a disaster. Elisha was booked for 2hrs 6am - 8am. Was a very simple run to get dressed, breakfast and take to school. I was at home for the first hour and prior to it I had been texting Elisha and with calls for several days/ weeks. It seemed as if Elisha paid no attention to clear instructions.I picked up my son from school to find out he was dressed for school in the incorrect uniform, no school tie even though I had got everything ready for her and pointed out where they were. My son had odd socks, no school coat. I came home to all the lights were on, his room was in a mess teddies everywhere and his tooth brush was in the kitchen sink. When I asked Elisha via text what she had been doing, she said she was in a rush and apologised that if she works again with me, this won’t happen. It’s unfortunate I have to leave a negative review, but the job wasn’t conducted properly and she neglected the fact my son had to be dressed appropriately for school in his full school uniform. Elisha was paid in full, which I was a bit reluctant as I saw on her profile, she charged me more than what she was advertising which isn’t good practice. As someone who regularly hires nannies UK and worldwide, I just can comprehend how 2 hrs of work can go so bad. Elisha seems nice but she can not retain information and I do not want to micromanage anybody.
Overall
Gina is just AMAZING❤️ Intelligent, punctual, reliable, professional and just all round caring, nurturing individual. Gina has been with us for over 4 years and I can truly see how much she loves my son and vice versa. Nothing is too much for our darling Gina😍 even at very short notice, she can still accommodate. I know we are very lucky having Gina in our lives and feel blessed. Xx
