Caroline has been nanny to our two boys (now 3 and 7) in Twickenham since September 2013.

We had interviewed a number of potential nannies before we met Caroline. And we knew, very quickly, that she was exactly right for our family. We have never had cause to question that decision: she is a wonderful nanny, and we are very sad to be parting company with her (we are moving away from the area).

Our boys adore her - not least because she is great fun - and we respect and appreciate her professionalism and dependability.

During school time she does all of the drop off/pick up and engages with the school regarding any school related issues for our oldest son. She also manages homework when he gets home and cooks for the children during the week. She keeps our youngest engaged in a variety of tasks during the day (and both boys during the holidays) from creative art work to visiting local play groups and swimming to day trips out. She spends a lot of time thinking up fun and stimulating activities for our boys.

Caroline is also highly intelligent, with a wide cultural hinterland. She is even able to wow our sons with enviable sci-fi knowledge.

Her next employers are fortunate and will - we have no doubt - come to admire Caroline as much as we do.
