I am a mature woman who shows respect for the family and their house and culture. I studied psychology for two years and five years NVQ in Spain to be able to work with children between 0 and 5 years old. I can also cook for children
Esther was my nanny for about six months, and this was about six years ago. She was very sweet, very loving. I wanted my children to speak Spanish (as my husband is Argentinean), so she did that. The baby loved her. Esther is very Spanish - a good cook and very loving. I'd have her again and would definitely recommend her.Suzzi Y
Esther was recommended to me by a mutual friend. My Au pair left suddenly and so we needed childcare for my two daughters (who were 11 and 9 back then) for a few weeks. Esther was wonderful! She's really very gentle, trustworthy, absolutely loves children. She's particularly good with small children - she one of those people who really enjoys their company. You can 100% trust her with your children, and she would help out around the house as well, keeping me organised. She is really neat and tidy, and on time as well, whatever we needed, whenever we needed it. I'd highly recommend her - she's trustworthy and wonderful.Lisa J
"Esther came over to meet our baby and toddler for three hours. She was certainly kind with my daughters. However her manner was strange. On a couple of occasions, she spoke to me through the baby, e.g. pushing away the spoon I'd given the baby and saying "tell your mummy sorry for making a mess but this is better for your development". Lots of other similar passive-aggressive comments ("did you choose this music...?" (obvs) "Do you have something baby friendly?"). Bit weird.
-- We are sorry to hear that things did not work out that day with Esther. Thank you for the feedback, which we will provide to Esther, so that she can take this on board and consider how such situations might be managed differently in the future. - the KidSitter Team"
"Very happy - our daughter got on really well with Esther, and was sad to see her go!"
"Esther looked after our 1.5year old daughter for 4.5hrs when her childminder was unwell. She arrived promptly and was very friendly. Our little girl took a while to settle but Esther was very patient and continued to chat and sing with her all through her stay. She took her out for a walk and to the local play park and maintained contact with me to confirm she had settled. Thank you Esther."
"Esther was amazing! Fully attentive and super caring, she looked after my three babies with ease. They did not even realise we were gone until we were back! She will definitely be our first choice for a sitter when needed again :) "
"Esther was great. She is a very attentive and qualified person, and was really loving and patient with our twins. Wish to see her more often and highly recommend her."
"Esther was amazing! She really took good care of my 4 year old. My kid loved her. She was professional kind and very thoughtful. "
"Esther is lovely - she had my daughters best interests firmly at heart and went out of her way to help her have a good time. She is very respectful and helpful and has a lovely smile!"
"Esther is a very caring, safe and loving. She was brilliant with my nine year old daughter, - full of ideas of things to do and very kind. Bella is looking forward to seeing her again!"
"Esther is very nice and calm with my son. She was able to feed him and get him to sleep for his nap, and was very attentive and caring while playing with him. We will use Esther again!"
