We have been beyond lucky to find Teresa, and have her as our daughter’s nanny. She is and always will be a part of our extended family, an important part of our lives - quite simply, we could not have done the last year, or enjoyed it in the way we have without her.

Teresa is warm, safe, kind, funny, patient, creative, generous - our little girl’s best friend - they adore each other.

I wanted a nanny that would fit right in with us - like an older sister or aunt would, who knew their stuff but who wouldn’t take over and would respect my role as mother. Teresa does more than that, she cherishes our family set up, our home and most important our little one - and simply does everything she can to enable the most joy and ease possible here.

All the practical stuff is taken care of implicitly, and it goes without saying that she is a trustworthy and safe pair of hands when it comes to that, and being in our home too, but it’s the infectious energy she brings that makes the magic. Teresa, thank you, you truly are a gift.
