My setting offers a safe, warm, and welcoming environment where children can feel at home while learning, growing, and having fun.

It has been an absolute privilege to have Amy as our nanny for the past three years. She has cared for our two children, now aged four and one, with unwavering dedication, warmth, and professionalism. From day one, Amy has put their needs first, ensuring they feel safe, nurtured, and encouraged in every aspect of their development.
One of Amy’s greatest strengths is her ability to balance structure with creativity. She has always planned ahead, organizing engaging activities both in and outside of term time that align with our children’s interests and developmental milestones. Whether it’s arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, or educational play, Amy ensures every day is filled with fun and learning.
Beyond her thoughtful approach to their growth, Amy has also instilled essential values and rules that promote safety and responsibility. She maintains a firm yet kind approach to discipline, ensuring that our children understand boundaries while feeling supported and respected. She has also been exceptional in group settings, making sure that both of our children receive the attention and care they need while fostering social skills and independence.
It has truly been a pleasure having Amy as part of our family. Her commitment, reliability, and genuine love for the children have made a lasting impact, and we cannot recommend her highly enough!

Amy has been babysitting our daughter since she was around 1 year old and we have been really happy with her in the past two years. She responds quickly to messages, tries to accommodate our requests and reassures us throughout each evening that all is going well so we can enjoy our occasional date.
Most importantly, Amy is extremely caring and it is very clear that she loves children. Whenever my daughter was upset, Amy was happy to offer cuddles and help her calm down. On one occasion, Amy took care of our daughter the whole day and they had great fun together in Amy’s house with the other children Amy cared for that day. My daughter liked the food Amy made and came home happy. We highly recommend Amy!
