I highly recommend Shae. She has been a fantastic addition to our family and our son loves being with her. She has really helped him with his gross motor skills when eating and has supported him with independent play and helping him get ready for nursery. This has made his recent transition to nursery a lot easier, and he has settled quickly because of all the work that Shae has done with him.
Shae very quickly understood what my son needed and could read his hunger and tiredness cues and she gelled really well with us as a family. It was very easy having Shae around the house and we quickly trusted her to take our son out for the day to the park, baby classes and to play with other children.
Our son was poorly with a chest infection during the time that Shae was with us, and she monitored his temperature, kept him cool and advised us when to go to the doctors. She really looked after him and gave him plenty of comfort and cuddles which put my mind at ease when I had to work.
If you’re looking with someone who is intuitively good with children, spends lots of time keeping up with her qualifications and training and who genuinely cares for children then Shae is the one for you.

Shae has been with us since the start of the year and has blended into our family life with ease. We have two neurodivergent girls, 4 and 9 both with eating difficulties and one with multiple allergies. Shae has been fantastic with helping our eldest with new food choices (ARFID) and has amazing attention to detail allergy wise. She has made great progress with routines which we had none of for our family too. As well as drop offs and pick ups, Shae takes our girls out in nature as much as possible, cooks with them and keeps them occupied away from screens which they are of course addicted to! Our oldest opens up emotionally to her and trusts her with her secrets. She is punctual, reliable, kind and caring. She’s a fantastic addition to any family and we are all very sad that our change in circumstances means we are unable to keep her. Shae is truly wonderful and her next family will be very lucky.
