Bear Nanny Anna's References
|
“Anna has worked in my home for over two and a half years as housekeeper and as nanny for my two young children. I can say without reservation that she has been an excellent employee! As a housekeeper, Anna is self-motivated and independently plans the jobs for each day of the week, adjusting for special projects and for times when the children need more or less attention. I have been able to trust her with shopping for the household with my debit card for the last year or so. My older boy was six years old and the younger boy was two when Anna came to work for us. She has also helped with my infant grandchildren, so her experience spans a range of ages! Since I am not employed outside the home, I have observed Anna closely during the course of many days when we were both in the house. She has also taken over when I was away for several hours at a time or even out of town for a day or more. She has always been reliable, and the children have clearly felt very comfortable and safe with her! I have been especially impressed with the way Anna provides balance in a child's experience, going from books to active play to educational television to community events and imaginative play. Some of these are activities that I plan, but Anna is quite capable of managing the child's entire day and often gives him choices about what to do. When plans do need to change, Anna is appropriately flexible. She is very aware of safety, hygiene, exercise, and nutrition needs. She also manages discipline well and encourages children to be responsible and practice new skills. Now the younger child, who is four, is starting full-day preschool, and of course the older boy is back in full-day elementary classes. Anna has become very much like a member of our family, and I hope that she can find a rewarding position in someone else's home!”
“Anna adapts well to all situations and people! She is very easy going and always asks questions if things are not clear. She is proactive and anticipates how she can help and what needs to be done. In addition, she is flexible and accommodates other people’s needs. My children are always excited and look forward to the days she works for us! Anna is one of the few nannies that I have felt completely comfortable with from the first day she worked for us! She respects our privacy and is always very considerate. She is very good with children and enforces rules when necessary. I never have had any concerns when my children are in her care because I know she has wonderful judgment! The fact that my children adore her is an added bonus. We all feel that she is like family!”
“I highly recommend Anna as a candidate for any position working with children! I am extremely confident in her abilities, as she has consistently demonstrated her talents on all levels over the last five years. Anna has held various teaching-related positions including the head teacher in a preschool program for 15 years. Since that position, she has held several long-term positions as a both a nanny as well as a personal assistant. Anna has a wonderful rapport with people of all ages! Her ability to connect interpersonally and professionally on all levels is a direct reflection of her genuine and natural abilities. Anna demonstrates a skill set that I feel most people only acquire through extensive schooling. I state this as I hold a dual degree in Special and Elementary education and have worked in my field for over ten years with difficult populations, including the homeless. During and since my career I have had three children. I attribute Anna's extraordinary ability to her consistent approach to learning and her pursuit to be the very best she can be! I As one of my children is learning disabled, I have observed Anna's dedication to my daughters' attention difficulties for the last five years, without hesitation can highly recommend Anna as she is patient, kindhearted, and very perceptive with an innate ability to know when to be firm in an appropriate and beneficial way. Anna easily gains and establishes trust with others, which enables those around her to feel secure and grow to their fullest potential. She has also consistently demonstrated, for five years without fail, a strong balance of patience and nurturing combined with humor and the necessary discipline that makes her an ideal candidate for your position. Anna has excellent written and verbal communication skills, is extremely organized and reliable; to the point of becoming my personal assistant, as I endured 27 surgeries and needed a tremendous amount of help over various points of times. Anna can work independently and is able to follow through to ensure that the job gets done. She accomplishes these tasks with great initiative and with a very positive attitude. She also easily adapts into new situations and works extremely well in group settings or as a team. She has helped myself, my children, and many others I know. I not only highly recommend Anna to you without reservation, but I consider myself, and my children, honored to have her in our lives!”
“Anna is the nanny for a friend of mine, so my children would often interact with her because they would be playing with the children she was watching. She has a wonderful sense of humor and I very much enjoyed when we would spend time together. I trust her completely with my children, because I have watched first hand how she would handle 4 young children with ease! She would listen to them, comfort them if needed, but also be firm. All the children loved her, and still do 5 years later. She is a very genuine, honest and hardworking person. I cannot recommend her enough!”
“I have known Anna for three years, and I can say she is very organized, efficient, extremely competent, and has an excellent rapport with people of all ages! Anna has always displayed a high degree of integrity, responsibility, and ambition. She is definitely a kind and helpful person! Her good judgment and mature outlook ensure a logical and practical approach to her endeavors. Anna would be an asset to any family, and I am happy to give her my wholehearted endorsement!”
