We have been with Farhiye since August this year, and as a family of migrants, I can honestly say that for the first time, we feel supported and understood.
Our child is always picked up from nursery and safely driven home. Farhiye makes sure our child is well fed, cared for, and happy. She is extremely professional and always respectful of both the child’s and parents’ boundaries.
Farhiye has never been late, never made a promise she didn’t keep, and always communicates clearly. She is truly exceptional — reliable, educated, and deeply dedicated to her work. We are very grateful to have her in our lives.
It was very important for us to find someone we could trust, who would understand our child’s needs, and Farhiye has exceeded our expectations. She not only takes wonderful care of our child but also teaches and encourages them in the best way.
Whenever we need advice — whether it’s about the English education system or even where to find good clothes for our child — Farhiye is always there to help with the right guidance.
As two working parents without family in the UK, we are so thankful to have found someone so responsible and supportive. We truly feel that our child has gained an extended family with Farhiye and her assistant.
We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, professional, and caring person to support their family.
