Molly worked for our family in London for two years as a live-in nanny looking after our two girls 2&5 at the time she joined. From day one she built a wonderful bond with our children. Molly is able to set clear boundaries, whilst also being their friend, playing and having fun together.

Molly was proactive at organising playdates and ensuring the girls were well socialised, which was really important to us. This wasn't always easy as some of her time with us overlapped Covid period. When in person meet ups weren't possible, she found creative ways the girls were able to keep in touch with their friends, like zoom playdates, sending letters / drawings to one another, once permitted, meeting in the park. Molly could always be trusted to keep our children safe whilst taking them around London for various playdates, clubs and after school activities. She would take kids on walks with their scooters or bikes and was able to implement good road safety protocols with them.

Molly helped our oldest with her homework and was really patient and disciplined with it. Molly would find new and innovative activities to stimulate and entertain the girls at home (baking, reading, creative play, arts and crafts) without ever resorting to TV or screen time for entertainment.

Molly cooked daily healthy, nutritious meals for the girls at home + prepared interesting and varied packed lunches for the oldest to take to school.

It's been nearly two years since Molly left to move outside London and we still see each other regularly and the girls always ask after her and look forward to seeing her. She was a pleasure to have as part of our family for two years and we miss her dearly.
