Feedback

We received this lovely feedback from Jacqueline, about her male au pair Chris.

I am glad to say we are definitely NOT looking for a replacement au pair, Chris is simply fantastic.  He is without doubt the best au pair we have ever had.
 
I have no idea how we are going to replace him in April 09, not really looking forward to him going at all, nor are the children!
 
However, we will trust in you to find a suitable replacement when the time comes..

Thank you for the folders which I received yesterday for both myself and Kate. I have to say the professionalism with which this has been dealt is fantastic and I want to thank you all for your hard work and commitment to ensuring that this au pair placement goes well.

Kind Regards
