We were very lucky to find Maggie!
Maggie has been employed with us for almost 1 year, since April 2018, as part of a nanny share for 2 boys who were 13 months at the time. We are expecting our second baby, and our son will be starting nursery, thus circumstances are changing that we have had to make a difficult decision to make changes to our current nanny share arrangement.
Maggie has been a very important part of our lives. One of the most valuable qualities for us, as new parent’s, is the complete trust we have in her. The feeling of reassurance we have that our son is always well looked after and taken care of while we are at work, is something that we have valued more than anything else.
Maggie is extremely hard working, takes her role very seriously, is always on time, and has an immense amount of energy. She has always taken an interest in our son’s development and learning, encouraging his interests in books, drawing, crafts, music, as well as outdoor play and exploration. She managed to settle the 2 boys into a routine quite soon, and had them both napping at the same time, despite both boys not being sleep trained.
Maggie has become an important person in my son’s life. He is always happy to see her, and shows her respect, affection and admiration. From the start, Maggie has instilled an amazing balance of discipline and fun, and it has been heart warming to see them interact. With Maggie’s guidance, our son very quickly learnt important concepts like sharing and kindness, as well as good eating habits and table manners.
