Michelle has been a wonderful nanny for our family. She has forged warm and caring relationships with both my young daughters, cooked healthy fresh food for them every day (with lots left over for us!) and I come home from work to a spotless downstairs, and happy, contented children.

I was initially anxious about leaving my oldest child (Louisa) with a nanny as in the past she had been distraught every time I left her at the childminders, and was very clingy. She also has severe food allergies, is a very fussy eater, and can be quite a handful! However, very quickly, she bonded with Michelle, and was happy to say goodbye when I went to work. Michelle has gone out of her way to find fun activities for the children to do, taking them to playgroups, parks, and creating fun imaginary games in the house. Louisa often sings new songs Michelle has taught her, and has tried lots of new foods she would never eat with me! Michelle has always been consistent with our methods of discipline, and always brings out the best in our children.
Roxanne, (18 months) also obviously is very happy to be looked after by Michelle. She has also formed a very strong bond with her, and loves showing off in front of her! I have always found Michelle to be incredibly cheerful, enthusiastic, energetic and very capable. Michelle also has many years of experience and so has been able to give me some excellent ideas about how to improve some typically annoying toddler traits.

Michelle has been such a help to our family, in so many ways, and is always flexible if I am running late, or need her at different times. We shall be very sorry to see Michelle leave, but we are awaiting a new addition to our family, and due to personal health problems, I will be needing a live in help. I can not recommend Michelle highly enough, and will be very happy to speak to anybody considering Michelle as their nanny. She will be a huge asset to any family, and hugely missed by mine.
