Hello and Welcome to our Kids Deserve the Best Blog. The purpose of the our KDTB Blog page is to keep you informed of what we are doing, any news and special events, or just general things which you may find of interest. Sarah will be updating regularly, and we hope to have useful articles from some of the local companies which Kids Deserve the Best are working with.
I hope you will find these updates useful and maybe some might make you smile.
Kids Deserve the Best really appreciate kind words of support and recommendations to others who need help to find a childcare solution, or help to find a new nanny job...... Did you know we are offering rewards to say thank you, simply because Sharing is Caring!
* Clear and Consistent Communication between both Families and Nannies
* Mutual flexibility and commitment between both Families and Nannies
* Mutual respect and understanding for each other
This is what makes a Family and Nanny arrangement work well!

Being a Professional Nanny is a real career choice! This is most certainly NOT the same as being a babysitter or an Au Pair!
Every year the care, support and work of nannies around the UK is recognised at Nanny Week where nannies from all areas have the opportunity to take part in a variety of events, gatherings, activities with the small people they look after.

Working WITH people and supporting others is something we at Kids Deserve the Best like to do. Through recent years we have met, worked with, supported and advised so many lovely people. Long may this continue….. Today we are pleased to share with you another lovely person we have met recently and we hope to be able to encourage a long and happy working relationship.
Introducing Jill Santonastaso who owns Daisy First Aid Newcastle and South Northumberland.
Awwww….. our new baby has come home… OMG! Now what do we do? ….. Let’s look at the instructions….. Yikes…. THERE ARE NO INSTRUCTIONS!!!
Working WITH people has got to be a great way forward. Especially when these people are working towards the same aims! It is only natural therefore that The Association of Nanny Agencies (ANA) should work alongside The British Association for Professional Nannies (BAPN)!
Being a parent is one of the best things ever… the creation of a small person who will rely on you to care for them, to love and nurture them, to guide, encourage and support them in the right direction to grow up to be the best person they can ever be! As parents we make decisions which hopefully will be good ones in all manner of aspects of daily life. We trust our instincts and do the very best we can with the resources available to us.
But what about when parents HAVE to return to work?
Choosing to be a Nanny is one of the most rewarding professional career choices a person can have…... A Nanny should have a natural instinct to nurture, support, guide, and help encourage children to learn new things to develop their skills and reach important milestones. A Nanny will also play a big part in being an exemplary role model for the children to learn from in developing social skills, manners, respect, preparing the children for nursery and school environment.
Well what can I say…..sometimes I even amaze myself! And no I am not talking about the contents of my handbag this time!
After a very long time and for the first time I actually accepted for myself that yes…. People DO like what I do, they DO value my advice and support, I AM bright and knowledgeable and you know what……. I ACCEPT THIS!
April seems like a popular day to have a wedding, certainly very popular for our Wedding Day Child carers! Three weddings in one day!

Sharing is Caring is something I say a lot. I also believe in working together to provide the best possible support to families and nannies!
Finding the right childcare is one of the most important decisions a family will ever make. Nanny Agencies who have been 'tested' to make sure they uphold the highest of standards and promote best practice will help you make this process as simple and stress free as possible.
Kids Deserve the Best are members of ANA and have passed the Best Bear Test!

Yes, that’s right WE HAVE MOVED!!! We have moved into Newcastle Business Village in Benton. And yes, we have a lovely purple wall!
This year has been a bit of a whirlwind for Kids Deserve the Best in many ways, both from a business point of view as well as a social aspect too. However all for the greater good!

Working together and helping others is my most favourite thing - by doing this you can achieve so much more and build many positive relationships whilst providing a bigger range of services to clients and potential clients.
So..... If you know of a fantastic service, someone who goes that extra mile - Share It! It will make that person smile.
I am sure we all suffer from stress - I know I have had my fair share!
Stress can be very inconvenient and a very unwelcome thing! Stress affects people in different ways but how many of us can deal with these times effectively. Gillian Rayne and her company 'No 2 Stress at Gentle Rejuvenation', can help people with coping with stress techniques by offering a variety of advice, support, solutions and treatments. There really is something out there for everyone!
Babies are precious and they change very quickly. With a memorable brand and play on her name, the Pearman Photography studio has a number of Pear Characters to represent the specific services on offer with Laura Pearman.

Why do people exhibit? What do you expect to get from attending an exhibition? And the thing that really annoys me. Sorry if it sounds like a rant..... but I guess it is!
