"Chéllina worked from me as a temporary day nanny from 14th - 16th January 2009. She looked after my two babies, aged 20 months and 6 months. I had assumed that the children would find it hard to settle with a stranger and for Chéllina to settle in our house for such a short period of time, but I couldn't have been more wrong... The children took to her immediately and Chéllina found her way around our house and rountine with ease. I was pleased when she could help us out for a further day the following week and my toddler was delighted to see her at the door... I would have no hesitation in recommending her to another family"

"We employed Chellina as a tempoary nanny when I felt my son wasn't quite up to returning to nursery after a spell of bronchiolitis and I couldn't take leave at work... Chellina was lovely with my 9 month old. She clearly has a way with children, as he relaxed with her immediately. She worked with his exsisting habits but improved a little, letting him play but have regular naps, and after her first day here he had the best sleep in months. I appreciate the way she wanted him to be relaxed for bedtime - he loved the massage! She also sent me texts during the day, with little snippets of what they were up to. I thought this was very thoughtful and it was nice to feel involved in his day... I would have loved her perminantly and can highly recommend her"

"Chellina began working for us in March 2008, our little girl was 2 years old. Chellina fitted into our routine immediately and it didn’t take long for F to make firm friends with her. She has found some wonderful activities in the area, and has made friends with other mothers and childminders in the area, so F often goes on farm trips etc with her friends. Chellina is very inventive with things to do in the house – lots of painting, necklace making and baking, as well as stories and singing... Chellina also potty trained F within a week and was great at cooking healthy, balanced meals on a regular basis, since employing Chellina, we have always come home to a happy F Chellina has always been on time and has always been happy to stay later if need be, she is a pleasure to have around and seems to take everything in her stride. We are really sorry to let her go as she really is a great asset, but due to personal reasons, unfortunately, we have no choice"
