Reference Report

Bosch Family:

I have known BG since 2014, when she started working for us as a nanny, looking after our 18 month old twins.  She has been in our employment ever since, apart from a short break in 2018.

BG is currently still working for us, and due to our family moving, her contract with us will end on 31 January 2023.  Her duties includes:

• Looking after our children (twins born 2012, singleton born 2018).
• Cleaning our home.
• Washing & Ironing.

BG however does more than this.  She cares deeply for our children and their wellbeing.  She thinks on her feet and runs our household.  I know when I need to replace items and she informs me if there is something that she is concerned about regarding one of our children.  She is diligent, trustworthy and teachable.

BG is never late (unless there are extreme reasons) and has only been off sick once in the 8 years that she has been working for us.

I can, without a doubt, highly recommend BG to anyone offering her employment.
