The inspiration for School Holiday Solutions came from my own experiences of juggling the demands of being a mother and working as a lawyer.

I know what it’s like to lead a busy life and just how hard it is to meet the demands of work, school and home not to mention trying to fit in some downtime! Loads of my friends tell me they feel just the same - so many of us are pulled in different directions all at the same time.

Managing these demands during term time is one thing but the long school holidays can present a real challenge for any family.

My children have tried different school holiday camps and courses to keep them busy whilst I worked. But in all of this what I really longed for was more flexible childcare, not always having to wake them up early in the holidays to deliver them to a course, something less expensive than the local offerings and much less like school. What my children longed for was to be based around home during the holidays whilst being able to meet up with friends and do the activities they really wanted to be involved in rather than just what was offered by a specific course.

Then I found the solution that our family had been looking for: an Au Pair to cover the school holidays. This tailor-made service ensures that your family’s needs are met, taking the stress and strain out of combining work and play during the long school holidays.

I hope you can tell from all of this that I have a passion for the provision of flexible quality childcare during the school holidays. By its careful screening and selection of Au Pairs, School Holiday Solutions delivers affordable childcare you can trust in your own home.

After all, I would expect only the very best for my children and I wouldn’t expect you to settle for anything less.
