Clarisse began looking after our then nine-month-old son in January 2023 as we needed cover from 7am until the early afternoon - and what a joy it has been to have her! I was initially nervous about leaving my baby with anyone as he wasn't the easiest and was still quite young. However Clarisse has really excelled in caring for him. I have found her to be very caring, patient and good with him, while also still enforcing rules and boundaries. Clarisse has taught him so much - including how to eat with cutlery, how to draw and how to speak a lot of French words! In fact, he still says 'oui' instead of yes! We have loved that Clarisse speaks so much French to him as I think it has helped his language development (as well as teaching us parents some things!) Clarisse has cooked him wonderful food and also takes him out regularly to the library and playgroups. She is a warm and caring person and a joy to have around our home. Sadly we now need more hours and are unable to afford her full time, but if we could we would certainly have kept her up until our son went to school or pre-school. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Clarisse to anyone looking for a nanny or babysitter, she is a wonderful, experienced and patient nanny.
