Bonjour. Ive known Sam for 4 years now. When i first met Sam, i instantly knew i wanted to employ her. She was such a friendly and bubbly girl then and still is. She was a nanny for both my children when my son was (4 months) and daughter (2 years). She takes this job very seriously and goes the extra mile to make sure your day is easier. She did 60 hours a week first year and went down to 40 hours the rest. Sam has always respected my home and everyone within. My parents absolutely adore Sam. The love she has for my children is so wholesome and genuine. Shes so gentle and patient with them. Shes always prioritised my children’s wellbeing and happiness. During my children’s illnesses, Sam always went above and beyond to make sure my children feel better. It’s been hard to find a nanny thats as good as Sam. She set the standard very high for us. Shes always been reliable when we wanted extra babysitting or needed her to come in earlier or stay later. Shes never once been late or absent. When it came to holidays she always went away whenever we did. A time when her father passed away we offered her to take 2 weeks off. She instead during such a hard time for her still thought about us and how it would be an inconvenience to us if she did and made sure she came in a few days later. She later stated working for us really helped her get through it. And if she needed a day off she made sure she gave enough notice. But this was rare. She was also so involved with our Jewish celebration and always wanted to know more; she really loved being a part of it. She was so respectful towards it. The children absolute love her and are so excited when i tell them Sam is coming to babysit. Sam still comes frequently to see my children for pizza night. Seeing them run to Sam with huge hugs and kisses is so endearing to see. Sam is also very clean and makes sure any mess is never left unattended. Even now when she comes for babysitting, i come back to a very clean house. Sam was in charge of light housekeeping and nursery duties including the children’s laundry but she made the extra effort to take care off ours too. Her cooking is fantastic. Made nutritious meals for the children and even cooked for us too. In Addition, Sam is great with planning activities during holiday periods. Has a great way of being organised and manages her time well. Sam always communicated so well with us and shared how the children’s day went especially when i went away to work overseas. Always took great photos of my children which is always lovely to see during long hours of work. I literally have no cons about Sam but have only great things to say about her. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to employ her. We love you Sam xxxx
