Emma has been our nanny for nearly 9 years. Throughout all that time she has been amazingly reliable and capable, allowing me to go to work fully confident that she can handle anything that might come her way during the day. She has covered all aspects of childcare for my family, from looking after my younger two children when they were babies and I returned to work following mat leave, taking them to baby and toddler groups, helping them as they started school, to more recently supporting my eldest daughter to revise for her SATs and help her navigate being an 11 year old in the modern world. She also took on board my son’s eczema, asthma and allergy challenges as they emerged. I am always confident that she has his safety as her priority. She performs her ‘nanny duties’ (cooking, activities, children’s laundry and bedrooms etc) to the highest standard, sensitive to how our family works and how we prefer to do things.
Her ability to come up activities for the children is astonishing, as is her patience and kindness. I wish her next family as many good years as she has given us.
