I'm so happy we found Anita. She looked after my two boys (23 months old and 4 years old) and was brilliant with them. The first thing my 4 year old said the day after she left was 'Can I have another playdate with Anita?'. She is very warm, kind and caring, and amazing at keeping the children entertained. It's obvious she's a natural with children and knows how to talk to and engage with them. She gets involved with all the games they want to play: whether it's playing with cars, board games, hide and seek, or drawing. During the evening Anita sent me updates with photos of how the boys were getting on, which I found very reassuring and kind of her, and I could see they were having a great time and being well looked after. Anita is very experienced, professional and reliable, and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her to others :)

Thank you very much Ros for giving me this opportunity to care for your boys . They are lovely. God bless them .
Anita has been with my family just under a year and cared for primarily my 1 yo daughter but also cared for my 9 yo son when he was around. She was so warm and caring, my daughter instantly bonded with Anita as she knew what to do to make the transition easy. She cooked meals for her throughout the day, took her on trips to play groups and often trips around London to allow for educational experiences. I was always informed of where they were with lots of pictures sent to me throughout the day.
Anita would cook delicious home cooked meals, even my son who is a fussy eater enjoyed her cooking. My home always looked clean when I returned as Anita cleaned and tidied up well after she had finished.
We will miss having Anita around as she was so helpful and both children loved her. My youngest will be off to nursery but we will definitely use Anita again for babysitting as she has formed such a close bond with both children. Especially my daughter.

Anita has been looking after our son (2.5 YO) for nearly a year and I cannot recommend her highly enough.
She immediately made a connection with him and has become a dear part of our family - we are only losing her as our son is about to start nursery in September.
She is constantly positive, warm, kind, and her background as a teacher truly shines through as our son’s language and emotional skills have flourished during his time with her.
She is also an incredible cook and makes a vast range of healthy, delicious meals that our little boy can’t get enough of.
If you are looking for a nanny to become part of your family and look after your little one with their happiness and health as a priority you cannot go wrong with Anita - she is a rare find.
