Natalie was our sole-care nanny for three years, looking after my sons from aged 1 and 4, to 4 and 7. She was amazing. For the children she was fun, caring, engaged and sociable, always on the go, trying new activities and creative play, seeing their friends, out on trips; for me and my husband she was entirely reliable, sensible and flexible. We trusted her completely, and on the few occasions when my children were ill (once, needing to rush to A&E) Natalie was sensible, calm and did the right thing (I speak as a doctor). She is also lovely, I lost count of the number of friends who met her on playdates or at the school gates who spoke highly of her to me. Last, she is professional and takes pride in her job. I still have the notes she made about my boys, detailing their developmental milestones. She cooks well, making nutritious meals. Although for us she worked in our home, we have visited her several times over the last few years (she is good at keeping in touch) and her home is immaculate. I wholeheartedly recommend her.
