Helen

A truly outstanding nanny!

We couldn't have asked for a better nanny than Helen. She joined our family when our boys were just 4 and 6, and over the past two years she has become such an important part of their lives.

Helen is incredibly kind, calm and seemingly endlessly patient, creating a home environment where the boys feel safe, happy and encouraged to explore. She has a wonderful way of making learning fun, whether that's through imaginative art projects, painting, poster-making or introducing them to new foods with her famous "Bush Tucker Trials"—which have become a family favourite!

She is also a fantastic cook and has helped broaden the boys' tastes enormously. One of the things we have appreciated most is the support she has given them with their reading. She has nurtured both their confidence and enthusiasm for books, and we've seen such wonderful progress over the past two years.

Helen is reliable, thoughtful, creative and genuinely invested in our boys' development. She has cared for them as though they were her own, and we have always had complete confidence that they were not only safe, but happy, stimulated and loved while in her care.

Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have Helen. We recommend her wholeheartedly and without hesitation.

Last minute nanny

Our family is visiting in London for the summer and my wife and I wanted to go out for dinner without the kids for one night. We found Helen and she was amazing. Kept our 3 kids well entertained (without devices) and in bed before we got home. All before 9pm. Helen came prepared, ask about our kids before coming and brought arts and crafts bits to keep them focused on a task and curious. Helen is very friendly and has a very motherly demeanor. She is calm and exerts a peaceful energy. Our kids are already asking if she can come back to help again before we leave for the summer. Needless to say, we will ask for Helen if and whenever she is available. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a short-term or last minute nanny.

A True Superhero in Disguise – Our Super Nanny!

Words can’t fully capture how much of a blessing Helen has been to our family. She is, quite simply, extraordinary; the kind of nanny you hope for but never believe actually exists until she walks through your door.

From the moment she joined us, Helen brought not just her extensive experience and calm confidence, but a deep, intuitive understanding of children and family life. Our kids absolutely adore her. She has this beautiful way of making every moment feel safe, fun, and purposeful.

Helen is the rare kind of person who anticipates needs before anyone says a word. She brings structure without rigidity, love without limit, and guidance without ever overstepping. She supports our parenting style while enhancing it with her own thoughtful insights, always communicated with grace and care.

She’s not just incredibly capable; she’s present, engaged, and deeply invested in our children’s growth and happiness. Every day with Helen is a day we know our kids are learning, laughing, and being genuinely loved.

On top of all this, Helen is unfailingly reliable, professional, and proactive. She brings peace of mind to our busy lives and has become such a trusted, cherished part of our home. Frankly, we don’t know what we’d do without her.

If you’re lucky enough to have Helen in your life, hold on tight. She is a true gem, and we are forever grateful to call her our super nanny, and family.

Trusted and much loved nanny

Helen has been an excellent weekend nanny to our two children, ages 4 and 5. Not only is she always punctual and reliable, but the children also cannot wait to spend time with her. She is experienced supporting them with their homework and also makes an effort to bring creative activities they enjoy. Her communication is excellent and she leaves our home tidy. I would highly recommend her to other parents.

Helen is an Amazing Childminder.

I can highly recommend our dear Helen as a great childminder. We have used Helen for a few years now and it has been very good and on going to use her services.
She has a 100% care for all always, she takes her job seriously and always gives feedback about how my girls are doing and anything they can speak to her about.
Helen always cares for my kids like she is their Mother. They always speak great of her.
Helen is very on point about times and care and ensures my kids have a fantastic time when they are with her. She grows their mindset with help in eating healthy snacks and also doing their homework or even simply reading their homework books.
The kids almost want to stay longer when I go to collect them.

If your looking for someone who will not only look after your child but also nurture and love them as their own then Helen is the right childminder. She is simply a wonderful person and a great childminder.
Helen has always been flexible and accommodating to any of our needs. If it's a last minute change of schedule or a special request of time then she will do all she can.

It's true she really wants what is best for the children in her care and for their families, and as a parent and father I need this to be at the forefront of my kids care.

Helen will always keep you in the loop and sends me info and pictures while the kids are in her care and this puts my mind at ease. This type of consistency speaks volumes about the warm, welcoming environment Helen creates.

I am happy to say my kids will miss her when they move to bigger schools and to higher education. Helen is an amazing nanny, carer, childminder, I would give 10 stars if I could.

"From terrible twos" to "terrific twos"

Helen looked after my twins when they were going through "terrible twos" stage. She just made it all look so effortless and easy. My kids loved her warm personality and connected with her straight away.

She transformed the "terrible twos" into "terrific twos"! My kids loved going to the park, playgrounds, our local Children Centre with Helen and attending various sessions there. Also, they couldn't wait for her to take them to the Library for Weekly Rhymes and singing for kids and explore books afterwards. They felt in love with books with flaps and all the different textures and animal books were their favourite. Helen magically made them fall in love with reading.

Helen is so knowledgeable in toddler development and routines, and posses a special ability to use educational games and knowledge she has and turn it all in fun and cool learning activities.

Kids also really enjoy her food and snacks and movie days with popcorn, strawberries and chocolate pretzels.

During this time, she has demonstrated a commitment to creating a nurturing, safe, and educational environment that has significantly contributed to our child's development in addition to the wonderful breakfasts which he looks forward to in the morning.
