About Me
Hello! We're a family of four based in Cotham. We have two wonderful, friendly children: a 5 year old son and a 2 year old daughter.
Our son has just started reception at the local school, and is a relaxed and confident child. He adapts well to different situations and people. He loves anything with wheels, doing puzzles, drawing and being outdoors (riding his bike, climbing in playgrounds, playing football, etc.).
Our daughter attends nursery full-time. She is a very happy and smiley toddler, and loves chatting and being in on the action!
My Requirements
We are looking for a kind, nurturing and calm after school nanny. Our 5 year old son has just started reception, and our 2 year old daughter is in nursery full-time.
We require someone who can commit up to 5 days/week (but are also flexible), ideally 3.30–7.30pm, to support with school / nursery pick-ups, dinner preparation, some basic housework and winding the kids down for bedtime.

Reviews I've Written

Hollie was our children's nanny for 9 months, though she primarily cared for our 1yo daughter. We cannot speak highly enough of the warmth, energy, and professionalism she brought to our home every day.
Hollie was consistently proactive in ensuring the children were engaged and stimulated. She organised regular trips to local playgroups and different activities, and frequently planned special day trips further afield, treating the children to fun and educational outings. Our children were always excited to see her and returned from their adventures happy.
Hollie was a phenomenal support in the kitchen, a huge bonus for our busy family. The children loved her cooking, often requesting her meals over our own! We particularly appreciated her thoughtfulness in preparing batch meals.
Hollie approached her role with a natural empathy and foresight that comes from being a mother herself. It was immediately clear that she understood children's needs, handling everything from daily routines to minor issues with gentle authority and confidence. A testament to her nurturing character was the wonderful relationship she shares with her own daughter, Meadow, who sometimes joined the children. Their positive dynamic was lovely to witness and always reinforced our complete confidence in Hollie's care.
