Shakira worked as our nanny for just under 2.5 years. At the time of joining our family, Sebastian was 11 months old and Florence was ~3.5 years old.
 
We were very pleased with her efforts during the period and valued her dearly.
 
She showed a high level of competence in managing both our children. She is very a responsible and independent individual with a lot of experience in childcare and teaching. Shakira also managed our childrens’ dietary issues efficiently and cooked some great healthy meals for the children. She is happy to work to a meals schedule or come up with a meal plan herself. One of Shakira’s best traits is that she has a lot of energy and has an amiable personality, which the children love, but above all she is very loyal and trustworthy.
 
More recently, she has been helpful with Florence’s homework, in terms of reading and the school projects and she has been proactive in arranging an array of activities for the children during the long school holidays! She is creative and thinks about fun activities for them. She also makes an effort to meet up with other nannies/school friends so Florence is entertained during the school holidays.
 
In conclusion, we were very happy with Shakira, but due to the fact our son is now going to the same school, as our daughter in September, we no longer need the same amount of hours.
 
We would highly recommend Shakira and will stay in touch with her over the coming years.
 
We wish her the best in her career!
