Claire looked after 3 of my children over a 3 year period. She was a childminder to our 2 boys before we employed her as our Nanny from 2015-2016. Claire was always so professional in her conduct - she gave very thorough feedback on the day and would endeavour to give our children a variety of learning opportunities and experiences in a variety of settings. She has a wealth of knowledge and experience in childcare from bringing up her own children, as well the continuing professional development she has undertaken. Claire has so many positive attributes- she is reliable, punctual, hard working and empathetic. She has a lot of patience which was invaluable when caring for one of our children,who has social communication difficulties. I never worried about the children in Claire's care, which enabled me to fully focus on work. She was a real asset to our family and we all miss her.
