Ceri looks after our 2 year old for 12 hours a week and regularly collects and cares for our 4 year old after school. I think that anyone’s honest wish when looking for a nanny is that they will care for their child with the same level of attention, concern and high standards as they do themselves...so my expectations were high when we employed Ceri, but she has exceeded every single one! She is the most reliable person you could meet, extremely organised and not only has she never let us down, but she has gone out of her way to help us on many occasions when we have needed extra hours.

She is meticulously clean and tidy, creative, a careful driver and a great cook. she really puts thought into what activities our toddler might enjoy and is constantly thinking of new things to do at home and new places to take her. She has batch cooked some amazing meals for her, makes sure she drinks enough water, patiently encourages her with new foods...nothing is too much trouble.

Ceri is extremely switched on when it comes to first aid, safety in the home, and all aspects of children’s well being. We trust her completely with all elements of our girl’s care. Her intuition is honestly like a mothers because she gets to know the child so well. For example, she knows the difference between a teething child and one coming down with a virus.

The final, and for me the most important thing that I would recommend Ceri for is the thoughtful, caring, and enthusiastic touch she brings to the job. Our 4 year old doesn’t take to many new people and she adores Ceri. Our 2 year old lights up when she is around, and the bond that Ceri has with her is beautiful. She is professional on every level, let also feels like a part of the family. This is the thing I wanted the most from in a nanny and it’s a balance that is hard to find. I can’t imagine there are many nanny’s as first rate as Ceri around, and we feel extremely lucky to have her in our girl’s lives.
