Reviews
Real words from real families who trusted me with their little ones.
We were visiting from Switzerland in April 2026 and feel very lucky to have had Jackie care for our kids. She is warm, patient, and naturally connects with children. She is thoughtful, generous, and proactive — bringing items from her own home so they could bake together, and always stepping in where help was needed without being asked. She takes real pride in her work and never sits idle. We especially appreciated how protective she was. She spoke up when someone tried to take photos of our child. She was also very supportive to us as parents. We highly recommend her.
Jackie is a gem. She is the best nanny we ever had and consider ourselves beyond blessed and lucky to have found her. She took care of our young son in Cape Town for a few years before we left to work abroad. Amongst her many talents and gifts, what stands out the most is the quality of her caring and very big heart, her loyalty and commitment, her energy and playfulness and the sense of safety and maturity she brought to her work. We have kept in touch with Jackie and are thrilled to see her pursue her own dream of creating her business to be of service to even more children and families.
