Rachel and my 2-year-old daughter got on immediately - it was quite remarkable to watch how Rachel put her at ease the moment they met. We found Rachel when our regular childminder was unavailable for a couple of weeks, so used her often over the course of about 10 days. Our daughter was extremely happy - her face lit up at the mention of Rachel, who managed to keep her really occupied and stimulated so she slept brilliantly after their time together. As her parents, we were very impressed with Rachel’s professionalism and we were very confident leaving our daughter in her care. Rachel was always extremely punctual, and her communication with us was exceptional. We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Rachel, and very much hope she will be able to look after our children in the future.
Jo is absolutely brilliant! I met her when my firstborn was 9 months old and she helped us to establish a nap routine which completely changed all of our lives. When I became pregnant with twins I knew I wanted to use her amazing services from the very beginning. She stayed with us for the whole year of my twins’ maternity leave and she was absolutely brilliant. My children all love her, and she had so much to offer in terms of advice with routines, feeding, sleeping and also lots of tips to make daily life easier! She’s completely non-judgemental and very respectful of different parenting styles. She also managed to create a sense of calm in an otherwise chaotic house - she was extremely quick to learn how our household works, and was so observant about what went where and how we liked things to be done! If she saw something that needed doing, it would be done! She was also a great emotional support in my times of need.
Alison is an amazing nanny with so much experience. She will have been with us for 3.5 years - during which time she has cared for our children beautifully - going to work knowing she is with our children has made life so much easier than it might have been! She has been an absolute asset to our family. Alison is completely reliable, has loads of infectious energy and always has the best interests of the children at heart. She’s not afraid to be firm when needed, but the children adore her. We are really sad that we can no longer offer her enough hours to keep her, she is wonderful.
