Emmy cared for my 4 year old and my friend's 19 month old while we vacationed in Oxford for the weekend. Emmy was able to make both girls feel secure and comfortable from the moment they met her. Both have very different needs because of the age difference but Emmy was able to provide for them with ease equally. When Emmy arrive the second day my daughter wanted to introduce her to all our other friends, she was so proud, that was special.
It was my first time hiring a nanny while on vacation, Emmy made me feel at easy and communicated so eloquently. I highly recommend Emmy, I only wished she lived close to me. Thank you Emmy

Emmy worked as a part-time nanny for our two-year-old daughter for nine months between January and September 2024. We are extremely sad that she was unable to continue with us; this is only because we needed to move to a full-time nanny (due to both having another child and our daughter’s nursery cutting hours) and Emmy has other commitments.
We cannot recommend Emmy highly enough. She offers far more than childcare, teaching our daughter early lessons, arts and crafts and cooking (having fun preparing meals together has made our daughter much less fussy about eating). She is a wonderful person - extremely caring, nurturing and endlessly patient - and our daughter loves spending time with her. However, neither is she a pushover but will always carefully explain why something needs to be done. There is no doubt that Emmy has been a very positive influence on our daughter’s development and any child would be very lucky to have her in their life.

Emmy helped us with wraparound care when my work schedule clashed with my partner's; she would get our 3 yo and 5 yo ready in the mornings, driving them to school and nursery, and then picking them both up and bringing them home. She'd get them settled, cook and manage dinnertime, and with it handled sibling squabbles with such ease. Emmy also coped amazingly with my son's big feelings; he has SEN so huge afterschool meltdowns are commonplace, but Emmy was calm and reassuring, helping him through them without any stress.
Communication with Emmy is always totally clear and very prompt, and she would send a summary at the end of each day which was really valuable. The kids absolutely loved having her and are always singing their new favourite bathtime song which she taught them! We'll have Emmy back in a heartbeat!

Thank you for your kind words Claire! I loved supporting your family when you needed an extra pair of hands this past month. It's been an absolute pleasure, your children were both wonderful to be around and I'm excited to be part of your longer term support network.
Emmy has been an amazing help and support since welcoming my baby. She has not only looked after my baby to allow me to rest or do household jobs but also arrived with delicious banana bread and nutritious food to keep me sane! Would recommend her to anyone.

Emmy looked after our 3 year old and she excelled our expectation. She plans ahead, communicates well and provides comprehensive feedbacks, which is not commonly seen with nannies we have employed. She introduced many fun and educational activities like planet cupcakes and colour experiments during her time with our son, and dealt really well with toddler emotions. She applied a calm and firm approach which was very well received. I highly recommend Emmy as a nanny with exceptional professionalism, creativity and reliability.

Thank you for your kind words! It's always a pleasure to look after your son. He engages so well with activities and shows such enthusiasm for our day trips. He makes my job easy! I'm thrilled you're happy with my services. I'm very pleased to have found your lovely family and look forward to supporting you all even more over the coming months (and hopefully longer term!).
Kindest,
Emmy
Emmy has not only been the perfect carer to our two children (3yo & newborn) she has kept us sane and functional through the arrival of our second child over the first 6 months.
Our eldest absolutely loved her company, and our baby would easily settle with her from day one.
Also the moment she had spare time she would help around the house, sterilising bottles, loading/unloading dishwasher, hovering...anything she could do to help.
She is amazing, professional, knowledgeable and worth every penny.
Thank you Emmy :)

Emmy tutored our son in phonics and worked on his speech and language development when he was in reception and year 1. My son was always excited to see her and really missed her once he didn't need support any more- so we brought her back as our regular childcarer/babysitter!
Emmy quickly got my little one up to speed with phonics after he'd struggled initially at school. She made it fun and engaging - there were always lots of games and giggles. I'm quite sure he didn't realise it was a lesson! She built his confidence back up and reinforced the learning they were doing in school.
Emmy's so caring and patient, and fit easily into our family. We really have missed her support since she moved down South recently. If she has space to take your family on, you are very lucky!

Thanks for your beautiful review. I really miss looking after your son since moving! It was a pleasure to care for him over the years. Speech and language is my passion, and I was thrilled to see how he progressed. I have no doubts he will thrive in primary school!
I can’t recommend Emmy enough, she has been wonderful with my two children who both adore her. She takes the time to get to know you and your family, introduces fantastic activities for the children and I hope Emmy will be an extended part of our family for many years to come.
