I've known Marcia for over three years as a nanny to close friends. She supported us through our own nanny recruitment and subsequently has spent a lot of time with our family and nanny.

Marcia is an expert in little kids. She really understands their development and what makes them tick. She's a really kind support to all of us parents around her and a lynchpin of the local nanny network, meaning that the kids she looks after have a wonderful time going to a range of different activities and socialising with lots of other children and adults. My children, like all the children I know around her, love her calm personality. She's super-organised and kindly supports the children she looks after to develop lovely manners and new skills, so they have a high level of independence. Marcia has a wealth of experience in nannying and really can guide you through how to make a success of balancing your work and life commitments with the need for kind, nurturing care for your children.
