Louise began employment as a part time Nanny in October 2016 until July 2017 as part-time mornings 7am-9am term time. Louise’s main duties involved waking and getting the children dressed, giving them breakfast, entertainment in the morning and then driving them to school.
I had personal life changing issues and needed a part-time nanny for my two children 7 and 4 whilst I was at work. Prior to Louise I had never used a nanny. I had severe trust issues and with this position I required someone to look after my children in my own house, entrust with a key to lock up the house and take my children to school. When I needed to change my hours and Louise was more than happy and willing to change to my needs. She assistant with additional babysitting duties when I needed her in the evenings.

Louise is a tremendously patient person. She has supported my 4-year-old who has had difficulty with toilet training giving positive re-enforcement, encouragement and reward charts. She has created reward charts and taking turns charts and brings external activities for the children to play in the morning. The children adore Louise and look forward to telling her about their weekends/school. She takes an active interest in their likes and provides activities that are individually focused. The children have been through an emotional roller coaster and Louise has been there to help them with stability and emotional support.
Sadly, due to a change in career I no longer require Louise’s services and we are all going to miss her terribly as she has felt like part of the family during employment. I do not exaggerate that Louise has been a Mary Poppins for us she will be a fantastic asset to any home and family. We will still be using Louise for occasional evening work as we could not possibly lose contact.
