Isabella has worked with our family over the past year (2018-2019) as a sole-charge, full-time nanny for our 2 year old son and 5 year old daughter. During her employment, Isabella has been responsible for: providing daily care, planning engaging activities, preparing meals for the children, keeping the children’s areas clean and organized (including laundry), doing school drop-offs and pick up, coordinating play dates, researching and organizing activities for the children (eg: swim lessons) and helping out with all sorts of other bits around the house as requested.
Isabella has provided excellent care for our children, developing excellent relationships with them and helping them through challenging developmental stages (eg: biting, tantrums, potty training). She has remained positive and nurturing in all her interactions. She is very good at diffusing tensions/ tantrums with humour, but also maintains a clear set of expectations for the children and is consistent in setting boundaries. She reads frequently with the children and always get them outside to play.
As a rather busy home with two working parents we have come to rely on Isabella’s rock-solid organizational skills. She will help manage school projects, schedules, etc. She reminds us of upcoming events. She arrives 10 minutes early and has never once been late. She is always professional. We come home to a tidy house every day. We can really depend on her.
