Jacky has worked with our two sons (4 and 2) for around 4 months now. Our eldest is neurodivergent and Jacky has been brilliant in building a strong relationship with him. She is very respectful of our values as parents and is proactive in finding out how we approach things and being guided by that. Jacky has a really lovely, kind nature and is a pleasure to have around our home. Her genuine care and passion is so clear to see and we really value having her in our lives. Thank you Jacky

Thankyou so much , it's so rewarding and I feel honoured to help and support you all .
Jacky has a very calm and welcoming presence which our two children took to straight away. Our daughter is neurodivergent and can take a while to build confidence with people, but Jacky clearly is very experienced and able to relate to her very well and make her feel at ease. She is very competent with play, bedtime & food preparation - even with our puppy in the mix causing trouble! We would not hesitate to recommend her. We look forward to many more visits. Thanks Jacky!

Thankyou for your review Jessie , it's so rewarding working with children who are neurodivergent , I look forward to supporting you in the future.
We booked Jacky to take care of our home educated son while we were away last minute for work. She was an exceptional nanny for our son. Her punctuality and reliability are outstanding, and she was ready to engage with our child from early morning. Our son enjoyed their time together, which speaks volumes about her warm and nurturing approach. Jacky's experience with Special Educational Needs (SEN) has been invaluable, as she understands and accommodates our child's unique needs with patience and expertise. Her ability to create a fun and supportive environment has made a significant positive impact. We highly recommend Jacky to any family seeking a dedicated and skilled nanny.

Jacky has been looking after my two boys, 3 & 5, for the last 2 years. She is incredibly reliable, punctual, and has a natural ability to connect with children.
Jacky's warm and nurturing nature instantly puts our children at ease. She creates a safe and loving environment where our children feel comfortable and happy.
What sets Jacky apart is her proactive approach to childcare. She goes above and beyond to engage our children in educational and stimulating activities. From arts and crafts to outdoor adventures, Jacky ensures that our children are constantly learning and growing.
Communication with Jacky is always open and transparent. She keeps us updated on our children's daily activities, meals, and any notable milestones. We appreciate her attention to detail and her willingness to accommodate our specific needs.
Overall, we could not be happier with the care and support that Jacky provides for our children. We wholeheartedly recommend Jacky as a nanny to any family seeking a loving and responsible caregiver.

Thankyou so much , it's lovely to have been a long term Nanny to several families, as I get to see your little ones grow and become chatty and independant children , which is so rewarding .
Jacky has been helping me with child handover arrangements, which has been amazing for a difficult situation. She has been really warm and understanding and immediately clicked with my two year old.
Would highly recommend.

thankyou Craig , it's a pleasure to help you and support you and your daughter .
Jacky has been caring for our two-year-old son, Jude since he was just eight months old, and we couldn’t be happier with the love and attention she provides.
Jacky has been a constant and welcome presence since then and often stays with our son during evenings, weekends and even an overnight stay. Our son, Jude, absolutely adores Jacky’s company, and we can see why, she has a natural way with children and always goes the extra mile to ensure they feel safe, loved, and happy.
What sets Jacky apart is her genuine warmth and unwavering dedication to her role. Whether it’s engaging Jude in fun activities, preparing nutritious meals, or providing a comforting presence during bedtime, Jacky handles every aspect of childcare with love and care.
As parents, it brings us immense peace of mind knowing that our son is in such capable and caring hands when we’re away. Jacky has become an integral part of our son’s life, and we’re incredibly grateful for her. We would wholeheartedly recommend Jacky to any family in need of exceptional childcare. She truly is a gem.

Thankyou so much, you've always been so welcoming and kind , it's an honour to look after your precious bundle of joy, and watch him grow from a baby to a little boy! .
Jacky looked after our 8 month old son and it was the first time we have left him to attend a local event. From the moment Jacky made contact, I knew she was the perfect choice to look after our baby. She was warm, friendly, knowledgeable and very experienced! She came to our house two days before to meet us and our son and get an idea of our home and routine, our baby took to her straight away and really enjoyed cuddles! She also looked after our dog, Dave who also bonded very well with her!
Overall we had a wonderful experience with Jacky and would love to use her services again in future.

Thankyou very much for reviewing my services ,it was a pleasure to look after them both! kind regards Jacky
Jacky came to our house to watch our two toddlers for the first time on a Saturday evening. She made us and the children feel comfortable right away, brought extra toys for the kids, and played with them very well. They really enjoyed her. Would highly recommend her and plan on using her in the future!

Thankyou for taking the time to review my services , it was lovely to meet you all and look forward to helping you in the future , kind regards Jacky
I contact Jacky to discuss having a baby sitter for our wedding for the Friday and sat evening . As soon as we spoke Jacky put me at ease as believe it or not I was more nervous and anxious to have someone else look after our son than actually getting married . Jacky arrived in time and was happy to be left to build a relationship with him . He seemed at ease and everything went really smooth . I would recommend jacky to anyway she has a very warm and family aura and we will defiantly be using her services again .

Thankyou very much Emma
Jacky looked after our 8 month old daughter for the evening (and our dog)! She was so lovely and reassuring and we felt very comfortable with her and knew our daughter was in good hands. There was a power-cut while we were out which Jacky dealt with very well considering it was an unfamiliar house and meant the baby monitor wouldn’t function etc. She really kindly even did some washing up for us! Would highly recommend and use again! Thanks
