Great caring nanny

Anastasia has been working as a nanny for our daughter since she was 5 months old. We had recently relocated to London and we consider that we were extremely lucky to find such a great, caring and professional nanny.

Our daughter is now close to 3 years old. She absolutely adores Anastasia. Anastasia is very responsible, reliable and has excellent communication skills. She is always calm and patient, even on the most trying times. She was great help with our daughter’s weaning and even to this day our daughter still likes Anastasia’s cooking very much. She is warm, caring and kind, always offering lots of cuddles.

She is very good at planning different activities, recommending classes and arranging playdates. She has been great help as well receiving deliveries and groceries; meeting maintenance people and getting prescriptions filled.

We are also grateful for Anastasia being so great with our older son, who is now 5. Once he started school she would help with drop-offs and pick-ups. He, too, likes Anastasia very much and enjoys the time spent playing and reading books together.

Anastasia feels like part of our family. Our daughter will be moving on to nursery and we are sad she is leaving. We cannot recommend her highly enough; any family would be truly fortunate to have her as a nanny.

The Best Nanny We Could Imagine

When we set out to find a nanny for our daughter, we didn't know what to expect - Anastasia has been more wonderful than we could have ever imagined! We had hoped that she would work with us for many years to come, but sadly we must relocate to New York.

Anastasia has shown herself to be warm, caring, responsible, and intelligent. As an employee she has been exemplary - punctual, communicative, and professional. Over the last months Anastasia has helped our daughter develop into a happy, engaged 11-month-old baby. Anastasia has a modern approach to childcare. She draws on her creativity, extensive childcare experience, and considerable knowledge to engage our daughter in age-appropriate games and activities, encourage her physical and cognitive development, and challenge her just enough. She is warm and loving towards our daughter, who greets her with a big smile each morning.

As our daughter was just 4 months old when Anastasia started working with us, she was a huge help in weaning and early development. Anastasia is trained as a maternity nurse, and these skills were evident in how she handled our young baby. I wish she had been with us even earlier! Notably, Anastasia has guided the weaning process, not only making our daughter's food, but suggesting recipes and guiding us in knowing when to move to the next stage of weaning. And her cooking is delicious! She was also hugely helpful in sleep-training our daughter: before Anastasia started working with us, daytime naps were a nightmare; within a week Anastasia had gently taught our daughter to soothe herself to sleep, and she continues to nap and go to bed at night without undue fuss.

Anastasia has been a true partner in raising our daughter, and we are gutted that we will not be able to work with her in the future. She will be a huge asset to any family, and we cannot recommend her highly enough - if the site let us give her 100 stars we would!

Godsend!

I posted an advert just after my husband returned to work, looking for somebody to help out with my 2 week old newborn, Anastasia started shortly after. I once found myself saying 'you might be the best thing that ever happened to this family!'

Anastasia is brilliant with Bonnie, who has had bad reflux and so has been a very challenging baby at times. She has also been a good listener when I have been worried that things are not going well. As I'm on maternity leave at present, our childcare requirements are small- I just wish I could justify heaving her around more, as she really is great!

highly recommend!

Anastasia babysitted with my 9 months old boy several times. It was very good experience! She managed to build good relationship with me and baby in a short period of time. Anastasia understands needs of baby and the mother the same time)) She is caring, kind person, punctual and reliable. She combines very well bonding and professional aproach. I highly recommend Anastasia as a babysitter and as full time nanny.
