Nonna For A Week is not just selling a service....
When you peel back the layers, Nonna-for-a-week is really about providing Peace of Mind, confident in the knowledge that your children are being cared for by "Nonna" for the duration of your week long break.
Allowing you to experience this Guilt Free Escape, while simultaneously every need at home is being met as if nothing has changed, under the guidance of your proxy parent "Nonna".
Nonna holds the mindset of responsive parenting, which is grounded in sensitivity, empathy, and unconditional love, creating a nurturing environment where children feel valued, supported, and empowered to thrive.
In this era of being connected and constantly on, it is almost impossible to turn off. This is exaggerated tenfold when including a family.
Take this opportunity to:
We couldn't have asked for a better experience with "Nonna for a Week." From the moment she arrived, it was evident that our children were in the care of someone truly special. Nonna effortlessly blended into our daily routines, and our children adored her.
My wife and I could relax and recharge, knowing that our children were safe, happy, and loved. We'll be booking her again without a doubt!
Nonna (aka Jenny) stepped in when our previous childcare plans had fallen through. We were headed off for a much needed break and despite the relatively short notice, Jenny found the time to write a personalised welcome letter to each of the children and our doggie, explaining her role and what they could expect.
During our time away, Jenny cared for the kids with kindness and empathy. She cooked up a storm (our eldest commented that she had never been so well fed) and dealt with slightly poorly children and teenage issues without turning a hair. She was able to form a trusting connection with each of our 3 very different kids and they clearly felt comfortable talking to her.
We had limited connectivity where we were staying but Jenny kept us well informed with email updates and photos so we didn't have to stress or worry about what was happening on the home front.
We arrived home to kids who were calm and a fridge and freezer full of homemade meals and snacks, summed up perfectly by the text from my friend before our arrival...
OMG I've just walked into your house and Mary Poppins has been!

The booking process begins, with "book a call".
Should "Nonna for a week" seem like the fit for your families needs, then a video call will be the next step for Nonna and the family to introduce themselves to each other.
After the video call, if you wish to continue, we will organise the booking time you require. Once this is done, I will send the appropriate forms to be filled in with the appropriate information, then lock in the booking.
