"I worked with Jáde for 3 years and she is truly a great nanny, my kids were very sad to see her leave. Jáde was placed with my family when my daughters were 8 months and 3 years old. I was very impressed by how she was able to support and care for such a young child and really adapted to her role by getting to know my kids as individuals and giving them each person centred support and care. She was able to support my kids with their daily life/ tasks, personal care and school / their education. She was also a great help to me as a single mother - sometimes staying behind if I am late, preparing meals for the kids when I have late meetings and also giving up her weekends to babysit when I had commitments. Overall I think any family would be blessed to have her as thier nanny as she really is a great person and a great source of care and support."

A little bit about me

Hi Dear,

With eight years of experience in sales, I have honed my communication skills, multitasking abilities, and capacity to stay composed in fast-paced environments. These qualities, combined with my natural affinity for children and a fun, engaging personality, make me a strong candidate for a nanny position.

While I am new to professional child care, my deep connection with children—fostered by my close relationships with my five sisters and nine nieces and nephews—has equipped me with patience, creativity, and a nurturing approach. I am confident in my ability to bring the same level of care, enthusiasm, and responsibility to your household.

I understand the importance of providing not only care but also a safe, positive, and stimulating environment for children. Whether it's assisting with homework, organizing enjoyable activities, or being a dependable and loving presence, I am committed to supporting the well-being and development of the children in my care.
