Summer Nanny Recommendation


Yuuna

Recommended Posts

My family and I are going back home for the school break and my children's lovely nanny will be staying in London for this period.


Our nanny has been with us for 2 and a half years now and she is very much part of the family. I have four children (aged 1 to 7 years) and she takes care of them, sole charge, while I'm at work.


The school run is usually handled by a family friend, who works at the children's school, so our nanny looks after my two youngest (1 and 3 years) and then the older two (5 and 7) after school.


My children warmed to her very quickly, as did my husband and I. She takes the children out to activities; music/singing classes, soft play, the park, the library and museums. She often arranges play dates for my older girls and during school holidays, their days are spent outside, exploring city farms, or engaging in arts and crafts at home, baking, dancing and whatever fun activities they can think of!


We don't watch tv or use tablets much in our home, so my children are encouraged to be creative and fuel their imagination by listening to music and stories. Our nanny supports their learning by reading to and with them as well as assisting with homework. She cooks healthy, nutritious meals for the children and we share an interest in fresh, organic food, so I feel secure knowing my children are eating well in her care. She even keeps a daily log of their activities and their meals as well as including lots of pictures.


Our nanny has 7 years of childcare experience, excellent references, and a true love of children. She is available over the school holiday period and she can be quite flexible with her hours; she is looking for evening babysitting in addition to work during the week. She can start immediately.


Please do send me a private message if you would like her contact information.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
