We were looking for a temporary nanny for 8 weeks so I could take on a short contract at work when my son was 7 months old. I was worried about leaving him because he is breastfed and very attached to me, but he took to her straight away. They bonded very quickly and whenever she arrived in the morning he would kick his legs in excitement and reach out for her. I immediately felt comfortable leaving him with her. Kanjana would take him for walks, to the park and to rhyme time at the library etc. Kanjana was also great with my elder son (4.5) who was at nursery, and a couple of times picked him up for me and made him dinner.
My son was just at the beginning of weaning and Kanjana prepared and made nutritious food for him and left in the fridge for the week, which was so helpful for us. She also knew exactly what to give him and when and knew how to safely give him finger foods.
My hours were irregular and she fitted into our family so well and was always happy to begin earlier/later or stay later, and the flexibility was so helpful to us. I will be so sad that we can't keep Kanjana on with us now I have finished work as she felt like a member of our family.

I was stuck for childcare very last minute in a new city, and Katie came to our rescue one evening to sit for our 11 month old son. She was on time, friendly, and very confident with him, and dealt brilliantly with him waking up twice during the evening. She later came back another time to help us out at late notice again. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Katie to anyone looking for childcare.

I am so so happy that we found Nahaid. I was so nervous about leaving my 8 month old baby but straight away he was so happy and comfortable with Nahaid - giving her big smiles every morning. He has come on leaps and bounds since he has been there, and being with older children has been amazing for his development too. Nahaid made me feel so comfortable and sends me updates throughout the day. I don't worry when I'm at work as I know that he is being so well cared for.
