We have had the pleasure of employing Fearn as a nanny for our daughter since March 2017. At the time Fearn started with us, our daughter was 8 months old and she is now 26 months. During that time, Fearn has worked either 4 or 5 days a week from 8am to 6pm - and often a little later. As I’m due to go on maternity leave, we’re sadly parting company with Fearn.

Fearn has had sole care for our daughter - as both my husband and I work full time. She has been responsible for ensuring our daughter is well fed three times a day; she takes her to a variety of classes and activities (many recommended by Fearn herself - as she has a great knowledge of them); goes on play dates with other children and nannies that she knows as well as doing activities with her at home. In addition, she always cleans up after our daughter and ensures that she always has clean clothes. In short - we will miss her a lot!

I would highly recommend Fearn as a nanny. She had built a great relationship with our daughter, who adores her - and she has become part of our family over the last 18 months. She has a very natural way with children and having had so much experience with looking after them, I’ve found her to be very knowledgeable and confident in her ability which further reinforces the ease children have around her. She is warm and loving to our daughter, ensures she is always active and engaged - with a variety of classes and activities (reading, playing in the park, going to libraries, museums and farms) and ensures she gives our daughter a variety of things to do as well as nurturing our daughter’s interests. We always come home to a happy girl and never have any issues leaving in the morning as she’s always very happy to see Fearn and looks forward to her days with her. As a parent, it’s always tough seeing your child ill but I’ve always been so relieved to know that she’s had Fearn to comfort her as she’s very loving and takes her to the doctor when needed. This is our first child and as such, I’m sure we exhibit classic first-time parent neurosis but Fearn has been very understanding - she has taken on board and fulfilled our wishes regarding her care. She has been patient both with our daughter and ourselves! Fearn is always incredibly punctual and reliable but on the other hand also flexible with staying later and covering extra hours when we require her to do so - including babysitting, getting her ready and then putting our daughter to bed.

Another family are going to be very lucky to have Fearn.
