We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Irene take care of our son for about 18 months. From day one, she brought warmth, patience, and professionalism into our home. Her natural ability to connect with children, combined with her nurturing personality, gave us complete peace of mind every day she was with us.
Irene went above and beyond in every aspect of her role—from engaging our son with creative activities, to maintaining a consistent routine, to helping with light household tasks without ever being asked. She consistently demonstrated kindness, responsibility, and deep care for our children’s emotional and developmental needs.
My son absolutely adores her, and we have seen such positive growth in him thanks to her guidance and support. Saying goodbye was incredibly hard, but we are forever grateful for the impact she had on our lives.
If you’re looking for a nanny who is reliable, loving, and truly exceptional, look no further. Irene is a rare gem and any family would be lucky to have her.
