Wonderful nanny

Reviewed

Mirka is our current nanny. She is looking for a live-out role within easy commuting distance of Crystal Palace. for a minimum of 3 full days per week from January.

She has worked for us since April, and we have loved having her as part of our family. We are relocating abroad for work in December, which is the only reason Mirka is leaving us so soon.

We have an 18 month old son, and Mirka’s help has been invaluable with his development. He adores her and has really benefitted from attending playgroups and classes with her and from socialising with other children Mirka has introduced him to through network of local nanny contacts.

She is very reliable, always on time and keeps a very good log book for me of what my son has done and eaten through the day and how he has slept. She reads to him and talks with him constantly to help bring his language skills on. She cooks him nutritious meals and always cleans the kitchen area up perfectly after he’s eaten. She takes him on regular outings and is very responsible with him on public transport and in public places. She has a lot of experience with babies and also with older children and is able to oversee their development as is appropriate for their age. She is also experienced in looking after more than one child at once.

We trust Mirka in our home and with or son implicitly, and have happily left him in her care when we have had to make short trips abroad. She has a current paediatric first aid certificate, is Ofsted registered and has excellent references spanning back over 14 years as a nanny in London. Lots of her work has come about through word of mouth recommendations, and I would be very happy to introduce and recommend her to any prospective new family. We shall be so sorry to be without her once we move.
