2009 First Class Care Nanny of the Year Contest
First Class Care had its first annual Nanny of the Year contest to honor its hard working, exceptional nannies. Families were asked to submit a brief essay on why they love their First Class Care Nanny. We picked the top 4 to win an INA (International Nanny Association) Membership.
Meet the four 2009 First Class Care Nannies of the Year!
Mariola

Our nanny is Mariola and she has been a wonderful addition to our family for over a year now. My daughter Samie, who is 2 1/2, absolutely adores her and when Mariola arrives in the morning she jumps up and runs to give her a big hug and kiss. They attend My Gym together and art class and in addition Mariola takes her to the park, the water park in the summer, and for walks. They spend time outside when it is nice and go to the library when the weather is not as good. She reads and sings to her everyday and works with her on manners, numbers and colors. They have tea parties and play with play-doh or paint when at home. My daughter is the type that likes to stay busy and Mariola accommodates her incredibly well with her never-ending energy and patience. They are two peas in a pod and I appreciate more than anything the love, attention and care she has provided my daughter. She has encouraged her creativity and optimism and nurtured her naturally happy attitude. Mariola truly is a wonderful person, as well as nanny, and surely deserves nanny of the year!
Sincerely,Karen, JJ and Samie

I would love to nominate Sue as "Nanny of the Year". She has carried our family through my pregnancy-induced bed rest; the arrival of my 3rd daughter-helping our whole family/toddlers adjust; and has managed to develop well-earned love by my not-easy-to-open-up daughters. Sue adds security, stability, love and comfort to our home life. Since she began, she has adjusted to our many needs by slowly adapting with ease. We hold Sue dear to our hearts; she has made a mark on our family and we know that she will always be a part of our lives. Sue is the most hard-working and best nanny there could be. Please consider her for this well-deserved recognition.
Thank you.
Most sincerely,
Lauren

We love our first class care nanny Melissa. My 3 year old son lights up with joy when I tell him that it's a Melissa day. Melissa comes prepared with an array of creative games and art projects for my kids. She creates fun adventures whether it's an outing or at home. Most importantly she lovingly and warmly cares for them. I love watching her interact with them and I've learned many things about child care from her! She is a special gem and we consider ourselves so lucky to work with her.

Every time they hear the front door creaking open, our three boys start clapping and yelling, "EH-NA, EH-NA, EH-NA!" This word is our one--year-old twins' name for our amazing nanny, Elena, who brings sunshine, laughter, and a restored calm every time she walks through the door. In the year that "EH-NA" has been our modern-day Mary Poppins, she has changed the lives of our entire family - right on down to our dog. Elena joined our household after several difficult years for our family, and she jumped right into the chaos with her quiet, flexible, and cheerful manner. My children know how much she genuinely cares for them, and she always treats them with love and kindness - even at times when others probably would lose patience! She completes well beyond the amount of work expected of most nannies, and she does it w/ jokes and laughter - even in the kind of challenging circumstances created by three little boys. Elena has done everything from wipe away tears and bandage skinned knees to change hundreds of dirty diapers, spend the night, fold endless piles of laundry, cook authentic Romanian meals, research child development, plan fun activities, give discipline advice, and even clean up dog throw-up."She always helps me," says our 4-year-old, Jack. "I love her because she's so friendly and nice to me."Our family knows we are privileged not only to know Elena as our nanny, but also just to have such a wonderful person in our lives.
