Claire's Reviews

stay away

We agreed to hire Claire as our nanny, she pulled out of the agreement as soon as my wife went in Labour! Which was one day before her start date.

She also kept on saying during the interview, I can do everything, whatever you need tell me, I am flexible etc etc but I had some doubts, but my wife agreed to hire her as it was short notice and we didn’t have much time left.

Response by Claire on 24/01/2026:

I am very sorry you feel this way, but when I interviewed for your role, I explained I had a full-time position starting in April.
This unexpectedly fell through. I was then contacted by a different family the next day looking for a full-time Nanny and we arranged an interview..
Out of respect for you I then immediately sent you a message to explain what was happening. I said I could work one month or until you found someone else to take over the role, I do not feel this was unreasonable and I did not leave you without childcare. I then received a message from you offering me more money to keep me. I try to explain that it was not about the money. It was about the need for me to secure a full-time position.
Are them received a rude and unkind message back from you which I feel was very unfair and uncalled for. I did not text you the day before I was due to start and I did not leave you without childcare.

Best nanny ever!

Claire's been our nanny for the last 3 years and she has been a blessing for our family! She is punctual, organised, flexible, friendly and very professional. She developed a strong bond with the children and with us. She's a part of our family now and we all miss her very much!!you
