Amazing.. My twins are so calm!

Reviewed

I employed Rebecca after she cared for my first-­?born Elli for 3 months in Feb 2012. I knew as soon as I found out I was pregnant that I needed to get back into contact with Rebecca. So I employed her to care for my Newborn Twins as their Night Maternity Nurse.

Rebecca worked with me and my family for 5 nights a week – 12 weeks in total.

Rebecca was also great, extremely flexible and happy to help out with Ellie as well. Ellie has a separate Nanny but there was a period when our Nanny was unwell and Rebecca helped muck in and made life miles easier.

I didn’t know what to expect, I had Elli in February 2012. I found motherhood demanding and a huge transition for me, so to be having twins this time round I was terrified. I spent many hours in the night with Rebecca during feeds and just times that I could not sleep, we would talk about routines and my plans for the twins, what I would like, how I want to achieve those results.

Rebecca was excellent, she handled everything;
Washing of the twins laundry, prepping and sterilisation of feeding equipment, settling and winding the babies after feeds, teaching us to deal with Reflux and Colic –both babies suffered with it quite severely, advising on breastfeeding methods and feeding routines specific to twins, occasionally cooking meals for me to make sure I was getting what I needed. I was even able to create a meal plan with her to make sure I was eating all the nutrients I need and to also help me get back to pre-­?pregnancy weight healthily.

Rebecca has a lot of helpful knowledge and I never ever felt like she pushed her ways on me, it was always relaxing and calm when Rebecca was around. Rebecca knew how to respect our home and our personal space and she would know when to leave us alone for family time, she was never overbearing.

Rebecca also offered to babysit the two children once a week so I could spend some time with my other half. Rebecca was fantastic the first time and exceptional the second.

Rebecca helped me find a method to manage in the midst of all the madness. I know if I have any more, I will not work with anyone else.
