Towards the end of lockdown, we needed some part time childcare for our son (20 months old) and luckily we found Jo; she was a lifesaver! Jo worked mornings (0830-1300) every day of the week and occasionally afternoons too on an ad hoc basis.

Our son loved his time with Jo. They would spend their mornings out in the parks and in our garden playing, learning and having a huge amount of fun. She was always on time (typically 5-10mins early) and immensely dependable. She was a calming presence in our house and nothing was too much trouble for her. She was quick to flex to our needs as work, lockdown and our needs changed - we were very grateful. She was also brilliant with hygiene and safety, which was important in the context.

We have moved out of London to Oxfordshire so had to part ways with Jo but we would have taken her if we could! She is a superb experienced nanny who we would quickly recommend to anyone.
