Melody did a fantastic job of night nannying my 6 week old premature twins.
Her long experience of working with babies showed immediately in the confidence with which she took hold of both babies. The love she has for tiny new people also shined through. I think babies pick up on the mood of whoever is holding them, and my little ones seemed to know they were in good hands with Melody. We do on demand breastfeeding and usually bed share. Melody was able to keep the babies calm and happy in another room, bringing them to me for just feeds. This allowed me to get long solid blocks of sleep in between. She did all the settling, burping and nappy changes. Best sleep for ages, really made me feel human again.
Melody is also incredibly hygenic, she wears a mask and gloves when out and about and is very careful, doing handwashing etc.
I thoroughly recommend Melody as a nanny or night nanny. Thanks Melody!

Mona is a highly competent and experienced night nanny. She did a great job with our 3 week old premature twins. She handles them really delicately, and is able to pick them both up at once. She talks to them in a very calming way, and her manner exudes calm confidence, which I think they pick up on, even if they don’t understand words. 3 weeks into being a first time mum, it was so lovely to have a confident person come into the house and take over in the gentlest possible way.
We usually bedshare and find it hard to put our babies down without them getting upset. Mona was able to keep them really calm all night, so the rest of the house could get some good sleep. Mona came to us every week for a couple of months, until the babies started to sleep a bit better, it was a real treat knowing that we could sleep and the babies would be cared for by someone who wasn’t exhausted from sleep deprivation, and who knows what they are doing.
I exclusively breastfeed on demand, so Mona would bring them in when they were hungry, I wasn’t sure if this would work, but it worked really well. The feeding doesn’t take long when you have someone else to do all the burping, settling and changing.
I strongly recommend Mona as a nanny or night nanny. Thanks Mona!
