Take a look at our client feedback below from some of our clients in and around Surrey.
Nanny Services in Guildford
Louisa was looking to hire her first ever nanny for her two daughters. As she hadn’t hired a nanny before, she wanted to ensure that whoever she hired was the perfect fit for her and her little girls. We took the time to guide her through the entire process to make sure we found her the right candidate while making sure Louisa felt at ease every step of the way.
As a result, Louisa was extremely happy with her new nanny and said she highly recommends Nannies Matter for our services.
Nanny for Full-Time Working Mum From Woking
Jennifer is a full-time working mum from Woking whose husband regularly travels abroad, and she felt that a nanny/housekeeper would help keep her family life organised. She came to Nannies Matter when she was stuck in September 2020, and again in December after two nannies had to depart due to personal requirements, leaving Jennifer without the time or skills to search for a replacement.
Nannies Matter came to the rescue and offered calm and caring advice while helping Jennifer find a high-quality nanny who was ideally suited to her and her children.
Jennifer said: “The quality of the applicants was high and with Nannies Matters’ help, we have recently found a superb nanny who is a joy to spend time with. We hope she will be with us for years to come.”
Pairing the Perfect Nanny in Virginia Water
Jenny is a client from Virginia Water who was due to go back to work after a year of maternity leave. Up to now, her first two children had attended nursery but she took this opportunity to employ a full-time nanny for all three children.
One unexpected thing Jenny loved about our service was that she did not have to come home to a dark house, and there would be a meal on the table for the children and she could then take over for bath and bedtime.
Jenny said: “Apart from the childcare we had not fully appreciated coming home to a vibrant house and happy children. Thanks Nannies Matter for making us think outside the box”.
Sourcing a Nanny That Could Travel in Richmond
Mr. & Mrs. Bond lived in New York but planned to relocate to Richmond on Thames.
They would then split their year between the UK, USA, Amsterdam and Geneva. We had to find a flexible and adaptable nanny to fit their many changing needs who would be prepared to be away from the UK for a large part of the year.
The children were preschool and school-aged, so this was another important consideration when evaluating the experience of candidates - who would have to find age appropriate activities for the young children.
Mr Bond says, “We had a good choice of candidates who fitted our requirements, the screening process was efficient, so we did not have to waste our time and initial facetime interviews meant we had a few to interview personally”.
Finding Flexibility for a Family in Weybridge
Raj and Sunita are based in Weybridge and their primary concern was finding a nanny housekeeper that could work four days a week during term time with increased hours during the school holidays. We advised that this was certainly possible but paying the same average salary per month over the year would be important to any potential holiday nanny.
Not having to worry about activities during the holidays was a great relief with the acceptance that there would be less housekeeping during this time.
Sunita says “It was an easy process to find our nanny Nea who is great with the kids and totally trustworthy. School holidays are so much easier for us now than when we used to have to cope.”
Securing a Live-in Nanny Groom in Cobham
Mr and Mrs Elrington who own a renovated farmhouse with 12 acres and stables on the outskirts of Cobham required a nanny with at least three years of equine experience to look after the 11-year-old daughter along with her two horses.
Duties would include turn out, changing rugs, bringing in, assisting with vets/farrier along with light schooling,support and coaching for their daughter, who is a keen dressage rider. They wanted the nanny groom to be able to stable her horse as well if required.
Mrs Elrington says “Having a daughter whose whole world is her horses can be time-challenging for us so when Nicola joined with her passion for the sport combined with her firm but fair approach to childcare, this was perfect for our family”.
