About Me
Hi there, I’m the mum of 2 fab boys, 4 and 6 years old. The youngest is about to start school this month, so excitement levels are high in our household! The boys love swimming, football, tennis and (brace yourself) maths! Oh, they also love every mode of transport! As a family we love holidays and trying all things new.
My Requirements
We need after school care 2-afternoons a week. You would need to prepare meals, take the boys to after school activities, help with homework, bath/showers etc.

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.
