“I was greeted by the lovely Jo, who made me feel at home. Then joined by lovely girls, who were super kind and friendly. We learnt some easy and delicious recipes, as well as tools to help children with their emotional health, which covered necessary subjects I would have never thought of mentioning. The improvements to my CV and cover letter were exceptional, giving me confidence to apply to many nannying jobs. I had my first experience holding a baby and got understanding of how to look after them. Everyone is leaving with a paediatric first aid certificate as well as an enhanced understanding on child care. This course has been amazing in not only building my understanding in child care but confidence to go for things I previously thought might be out of my reach. So much thanks is to be given to Jo and her wonderful team.”

“As someone who is at a point in their life where everything is up in the air and uncertain, this course was exactly what I needed to confirm that a career change is necessary. Every element of the course is perfectly planned and each tutor leaves you feeling confident and knowledgeable. The Freckles team were beautifully caring and took such good care of us for the week - there was never a point where I felt down or alone. Jo's passion and experience shines through every single aspect of this course and inspires all with her infectious enthusiasm and energy. Thank you so much for everything, you've done more for me than I can ever tell you!”

“When I first heard about Freckles through my Head of Sixth Form, it immediately caught my eye as something a bit different in the best possible way! If you love families and working with children, but aren’t even sure you’d like to be a nanny, then this is such a fab course to do. It’s also a bit like a retreat for you, as the house and surroundings are gorgeous and the food, PT sessions and yoga are such great additions. The Freckles team are so lovely to work with and it feels like a family by the time you reach the end! Just go for it and you won’t regret it :)”

“This is a course I wanted to do for ages, don’t think about it, just do it, you will not regret it. One of the best weeks of my life. Met the nicest people and learnt a lot about myself as well. We learnt everything you need to know to get you started in your nannying career. So much more to learn, but this course is the ultimate foundation. For anyone thinking about it, DO IT!”
