Amazing Nanny/Babysitter Recommendation


Yuuna

Recommended Posts

Our amazing nanny is looking for more day time, as well as, evening babysitting work.


She has been with my family for 4 happy years, and she is now very much one of us! We have four children; three girls and a boy, aged from 3 to 8 years, and our nanny has helped nurture and raise them, while I've juggled running a business and a home.


My children have their days with her filled with activities; be it baking, painting, jewellery making, sewing, singing or dancing. Our nanny loves taking them out to parks and museums which the children really enjoy. She's a very good cook and is health conscious, so there's no 'snack' or 'junk food' on the menu.


She's very reliable, punctual, and can be very accomadating (e.g. starting or finishing earlier/later). She's based locally so she knows the area well.


She has been a nanny for over 8 years now, so she also has a wealth of childcare/family experience.


I cannot recommend her enough and I'm sure she'll make a lovely addition to your family.


Our nanny is available for 2/3 days a week (Monday ~ Wednesday) and for evening babysitting most nights. She can also do ad hoc full days/sick day cover and school holidays.

Hi yuuna, we are a family of four with two small children. We live on hernehill/north dulwich triangle(Sunray ave) and are very interested in getting to know a local babysitter. We would be looking for the occasional weekend/ evening baby sit and also someone to help with pick ups from a local nursery a couple of evenings a week. I am currently on maternity leave, but will need someone to care or the children when I do an occasional Kit day. If you think this is something that your nanny would be interested in , please let us know. Thanks Lucia and dan.

I can also recommend this lovely nanny! She's babysat for my two girls very often and they love her. The girls are always excited to see her, and they have such a lot of fun together. It's also been very helful recently with number 3 on the way, to have someone on the weekends who can take them out to explore the city. She's very flexible which really helps.


Unfortunately, we've had to cancel going out this weekend (flu has struck the family...) so I am sure Abi is free to babysit this week/weekend. I'm happy to provide a further reference also, so feel free to send me a pm if interested.

Hi. We are looking for a morning nanny. Roughly 2 hours a day. 7:15am to 9:15 am aprox. Involves coming to our house, getting our 1.5 year old son ready for nursery, dropping him off and then bringing the pram home. Is you nanny interested in this? It's a long-term position if she's like?


Cheers,

Hello Yuuna,

Not sure if your nanny is looking for more hours than this but we're looking for someone to collect our two children (6 and 4), Mon-Weds, 3.30-7pm. It would involve collecting from school (15 mins walk from home), helping with school work, feeding them their supper and getting them ready for bed. NB there would be some full days during school holidays.

Do let me know if she's interested. Thanks.

Hi Yuuna,


I am not sure whether you are still interested in nanny/babysitting options (seeing the response!) but we have two well behaved children (8 & 11) who used to have a routine of being picked up from school at 5.30pm and then having tea at home until one of us got home for around 7.30 / 8pm. This routine ran on Monday, Tuesday, (Wednesday sometimes) & Thursday's.

Is this something you might be interested in ? Feel free to give me a call.


Regards

    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who by moving to your position on the right are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
