Zana

Wonderful Zana - highly recommended nanny

Zana is an exceptional nanny and we feel extremely lucky to have been able to have her as part of our family.

Zana has been looking after our daughter from 3 months to 2 years old, along with our 4 year old in his nursery holidays. She is loving, kind, proactive, responsible, calm and professional. She built a full itinerary for our daughter in local playgroups, so they are out and about all the time doing stimulating activities. She cooks healthy food, balances kindness and firmness perfectly, and is highly attentive to every need.

We will be extremely sad to part ways, and are only doing so because our requirements have changed. We most warmly recommend her to any family, and are very happy to provide more detail on our reference as helpful.

Highly recommended Nanny!

We had the pleasure of having Zana as our nanny looking after my now 2.5 and 4 year old sons for the past 2.5 years. She is very loving, warm and friendly and my boys absolutely love her.

Because my little one is also starting full day nursery from September, we need help with after school only and unfortunately this is the reason for letting her go.

When my boys are with Zana, I feel absolutely at ease because I can say she looks after them better than anyone else. She’s very trustworthy and she treats my boys like they are her own. She is also a great cook. I will miss her cooking too.

We highly recommend her as a nanny and are in tears to let her go. I wish her and her sweet family the best for the furniture and I know we will always stay in touch.

Reference for Zana

Zana has worked as full time nanny to my now 2.5 years old daughter for the past 10 months.

Apart from lovingly caring for my daughter, Zana cooked her fresh meals every day, arranged her play dates, took her to different activities, including music classes, cooking classes or bouncy castle. Zana also took her out into the park for walks or played at home when the weather didn’t permit being outside. Zana ensured that she was always nicely dressed and clean. In short, Zana was always a great support to me.

Zana quickly gained my daughter’s trust and affection and they have been able to form a very close bond with each other. Zana is very trustworthy, always on time and very reliable.

We cannot recommend Zana highly enough. We miss Zana dearly and wish her all the very best for the future.

highly recommended nanny

Zana has been a nanny to our 2,5 y.o. boy G. for a whole year while he was 1,5 y.o. Sadly, we have to move outside London and we need an Au pair.
Zana took care of G. daily from 7:45- 17:30. Her duties entailed taking care of G, preparing his meals, following a routine, taking him to parks, playgroups and playgrounds. G. had a great time with her and he was always wanted to be with her. She was supportive and patient while at the same time being able to set very good boundaries and routines.
She reinforced toilet habits, healthy eating and educational progress (eg. colors, numbers etc).
Zana was always on time, consciences, courteous and never took a day off during her time with us.
I definitely recommend Zana for a nanny position in the future and she will be missed by our family. Wish her all the best for the future.

I am writing to strongly recommend Zana for a nanny position. Zana has been working for us as a full-time nanny since March 2016. Our daughter was 17 months old once Zana started and as I was working full-time, she was fully responsible for our daughter on a daily basis.

We highly recommend her as a nanny. Throughout the time she worked with us she proved to be a very trustworthy and caring person, putting our child’s needs first and ensuring that she is happy at all times. She has never been late in the mornings and never complained when her duties continued for longer. One of her greatest strengths is her ability to be flexible, yet maintain discipline – something which is not very easy to do. We are convinced that our daughter owes much of her positive development to Zana’s presence.

Zana’s daily duties included preparing healthy meals, maintaining feeding and nap routines, taking care of nappy changing and hygiene routines, taking our child to outdoor activities e.g. playgroups and library, playing fun games and reading books. She also potty-trained our daughter. She assisted us with house chores and grocery shopping, which was of tremendous help.

We feel fortunate to have had Zana in our home. Her approach to caring for our child complemented our parenting well, as she respects our personal philosophies while being confident enough to independently make day-to-day decisions regarding our daughter.

Zana is looking for a new position because we are moving from London before the end of September 2017. We wish her best of luck for her future employment.
