HIGHLY RECOMMENDED NANNY!

Reviewed

We moved to Rutland two years ago, an unfamiliar area without family or friends close by. As both of us work, finding a reliable and trustworthy nanny that the kids liked and trusted was essential, but seemingly impossible. Then we met Clare.

Clare has worked with for six months. Always on time, dressed appropriately, full of positive energy and influence as well as a balanced, structured day plan for both children that she always communicates ahead of time. She has seamlessly fit into our family lives as though she’s been here all along. We wish she had.
Her kind natured approach has been central to our two children feeling safe and happy. For our daughter in particular, this had previously been challenging with feelings of nervousness around new faces and a reluctance to bond with our previous nannies. With Clare, our daughter’s face lights up with excitement at the prospect of another day spent with her and Clare’s influence on our daughter’s development - confidence, manners, and vocabulary – has been immeasurable.

Clare’s extensive knowledge of the region means our two children have had a wonderful experience attending local groups and classes as well as exploring the big outdoors with its various playgrounds and parks. Clare’s network also allows for our two little ones to mix with children of similar ages and make new friends, adding to the wonderful experience under her care. Play time at home is no less exciting and imaginative with Clare’s array of toys, books and arts and crafts keeping our two entertained as well as developing their early learnings.

Clare is calm and measured and she is diligent with any accident care, injuries or giving medication that the children may require. She’s great with pets and even goes above and beyond helping around the house as an extra pair of hands. A reliable driver, a fantastic sleep trainer with flexibility to offer overnight care if required.

Our family – and especially our two children – will miss Clare hugely and we cannot recommend her highly enough. We are relocating, otherwise we would hope to continue our partnership with Clare for many years to come.
