Joanne has been our nanny for the last year and she has been truly amazing.

We moved back home after being abroad for a few years and Jo helped us to navigate the transition, our then 4 year old daughter spent the summer with Jo before starting school in September, they had lots of fun on outings and Jo is fantastic at setting up exciting activities. My daughter loves spending time with her. We then had our little boy in September and Joanne was able to help our daughter with this big change and also help support me with our new son. Joanne is so knowledgeable and natural with newborns, I felt very supported and safe with her at such a vulnerable time and she not only cared for my son but also for me, providing meals and helping around the house.

Jo is typically responsible for things like drop off and pick ups at school, weekly activities such as swimming lessons for our daughter or play dates and meal times. She does the laundry for the children, as well as wardrobe organisation. During holidays, Jo puts together exciting days for my daughter.

With our son, now 7 months old, Joanne is helping support our sleep journey with her sleep training techniques and is responsible for him whenever Im not feeding. They play and have fun together and he adores her, now that he is weaning she has also prepared food in advance for us and is supporting us through this new stage.

Joanne is reliable, diligent, organised and very professional but what is most important to us is that both our children love her as part of the family and we are very sad to be relocating and losing Jo. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her!
