Best Nanny Ever - Detailed Review but Must Read!

I am writing on behalf of Suzie who we employed between 2013 to 2016. Firstly, I want to stress there is no other like Suzie, from the moment we met her we knew she was the person we wanted to help raise our children.

We initially opted to employ a Nanny as I suffered with severe Post Natal Depression with my first child and the second time around we wanted to make sure we had support. Suzie definitely was that support! She was amazing with my son Isaac who was 2years old at the time and wonderful with my new born Maya. She always made sure she gave Isaac attention and he didn’t feel left out with a new sibling. In turn he became more of a confident little boy and a lot happier. He was always shy but Suzie took the time to gain his trust and feel comfortable.

Suzie also worked with us for our routine with Maya. We had made a lot of accidental parenting mistakes with Isaac so it was lovely to have someone that could guide us without being dominating in the slightest. I felt entirely at ease knowing Suzie was on hand and in turn my Post Natal Depression was not as severe as the first time.
As important as it is to make sure a child’s basic needs are met (clothing, feeding etc.) what I loved about Suzie is the way she made sure both my children were happy, stimulated and had fun! There were always activities from playgroups, to picnics with other nannies and children, visits to the farm, singing workshops and many more. Both my children were always excited about seeing Suzie, as soon as the key turned each morning they would both run to the door! A good sign if any! My friends joked that whenever they saw her with the children she was like Mary Poppins and they always asked me where did I find her.

Suzie has many strengths, but what I admired most in Suzie is that I could sense this was not just a job to her, it was something she genuinely loved doing. She would come in and just know what to do to make my life easier, the breakfast would be made for the children, they would be dressed, teeth brushed, no tears and she would even go above her call of duty and tidy up!! When the children were ill she knew exactly what to do and nothing fazed her not even when they both had chicken pox or when they were vomiting. There were times when I needed the children to be taken care of overnight and Suzie was great with her flexibility and would accommodate. She would always be professional, punctual and never took any time off apart from her daughters Graduation which she gave me plenty of notice for and from what I can recall I am pretty sure she never took a day off sick. She was extremely reliable.

I am so pleased that we decided to go for a Nanny instead of putting the children into a nursery, it really was the best decision we made. With Suzie both my children had 1:1 attention and flourished. I don’t believe they would have got that anywhere else. As a family we were all so sad to see Suzie go and had it not been for the fact that both my children went into full time school we would never have let her go. She became a member of our family and still is. She is there at the children’s birthdays every year and we still see Suzie as regularly as we can and both the children are excited about our meet ups as am I! Suzie would be an asset to any family and I mean that whole heartedly. She will always be a part of our lives and is one in a million.

Suzie is so sweet

We contacted Suzie for a nanny job.

Unfortunately she isn't available but she kindly gave us some advice and recommend useful contacts to us.

Thank you Suzie!

kind and helpful person

Although Suzie already had a job she was kind enough to answer all my questions about hiring a nanny. Her kindness and wealth of knowledge comes across.

Suzie has the best profile on here which drew me in straight away (believe me I have read lots of profiles!)

Thank you so much for your kind words,

I am always more then happy to help any parent who may need a little guidance in their search for that special nanny.

My very own nanny once said to me, whatever you give in this life is what you'll receive. She was not wrong! Lol...

Always look for the nanny that brings the best out in your children.

Kindest Regards always,

Suzie Xx
