My Summary
About Me
I am an outgoing 32 year old who loves interacting, playing and teaching children of all ages. I take pride in playing such a key role in helping, and watching children develop into the best little people they can be. I'm a relaxed, patient person and easy to get along with, I always have fun but would take my job role seriously. I’m a very outdoorsy nanny, so spend a lot of my time with my nanny children out and about.
I love music and singing, and I am very enthusiastic about everything I do.

We have been so grateful to Jo for her wonderful care of our six month old son (and three year old daughter as well from time to time) on an ad hoc basis this year, and we couldn’t recommend her more. She has been completely reliable and flexible in terms of arranging days, nanny sharing if helpful, and accommodating changes when needed. Most importantly though, she has just been so warm, friendly and positive with both our children, and they very quickly clearly formed a strong bond with her. So thank you, Jo!

Jo has been looking after our daughter since we both returned to work. It's been four months now and we couldn't be happier with the care she provides. She is super energetic and fun, taking our daughter out for the whole day, socialising her with other toddlers and going on all sorts of adventures. It's clear how much thought she puts into planning fun, engaging outings for her and we really appreciate it!
Our daughter absolutely lights up when she she's her arrive, and regularly says "JoJo" when we're at home, so we can tell she loves the time they spend together. She always looks so happy when she comes back at the end of the day too. Jo is a real professional, always proactive, reliable and confident with our daughter - it really gives us complete peace of mind knowing that not just safe, but thriving in her care!
We really appreciate the support we've had from Jo and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any other family.

Jo looked after our 20month old daughter for 3 months over summer, and occasionally our 3.5yr old son. Both children warmed to Jo immediately. Every day she’d organise different activities eg. trips to the playground/park/splash pads, national trust, library, play groups. During our daughter’s time with Jo, she grew in confidence, established walking, started talking more. Jo was v.flexible and always ready to help. We feel incredibly lucky to have met Jo and our children enjoyed every moment with her.
