Qualifications and experience
References
Melanie's currently our au pair for a 4 and 6 year-old, for two months now. We got very positive references from her previous employer and experience was great. We've found her to be very reliable, good at managing time and very punctual - in fact often she's early. She's also very caring, talks to the children nicely and very responsible. It's only been two months but already we've left her alone in the house when we've gone away for a break. She's very reliable, definitely sensible and can be trusted 100%.
She's very efficient, very trustworthy and capable. I had absolutely no worries about leaving the kids in her care. She Au pair'ed for us for eight weeks as a temporary measure, for my kids who were 2,5 and 7. She did the school runs for the older two and took the youngest to a childminders. She also played with them and carried out duties - she was very routine and structured, she liked to be quite specific about what her duties were. I'd absolutely recommend her - a very capable girl.
Reviews
5.0“First time working with Melanie. My children are 6, 11 and 14. I needed someone to mainly look after my youngest, but also to be available and for the older two. Melanie was punctual, polite and pleasant. The kids were content and my 6-year-old seemed to enjoy the time spent with her. I would be happy to have her sit for us again.”
5.0“Mel was great! She communicated well with me and got on with my 10yo instantly. Highly recommend!”
5.0“Melanie is really great with my 1 year old daughter. She is friendly, professional and my daughter really enjoys spending time with her. Melanie takes care to make sure she does whatever needs to be done, whether it be feeding schedules, types of activities to do with the children, etc. She's very responsible and trustworthy. I don't ever worry at all whenever my baby is in Melanie's care.”
5.0“Melanie was wonderful with my 11 month old baby. She was very thorough, making sure she understood how best to care for her, and asked good questions on how to meet her needs. She was able to read my baby's signals and knew when to put her down for a nap, how much to feed her, and what to do during playtime. Would definitely recommend her and look forward to having her over again to watch my little girl.”
