Prince William hires his former nanny to help look after baby George part time
THE Duke of Cambridge has hired his former nanny Jessie Webb to help out with his newborn son, it's been reported.
Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge have called on the 71-year-old professional to help out with their bundle of joy, but only on a part-time basis.
According to the Daily Mail, Nanny Webb was looking after the future King last night when William and Kate attended their second official engagement since their son’s birth on July 22.
"Jessie Webb is helping the couple out," a senior royal source told the newspaper. "It was a very recent decision."
William obviously feels very confident to leave his baby boy in the care of Nanny Webb, as he has known her since he was seven-years-old.
She was first employed by Prince Charles and Princess Diana to look after William and Harry when Harry was about to start prep school.
According to a Kensington Palace figure, Webb witnessed the breakdown of Charles and Diana's marriage, and did her best to try and keep the children out of it.
"Diana was often in tears and there were frequent rows," they recalled. "Jessie did not see it as her job to console the princess, so she did her bit to keep the children occupied and out of the way."
This time around, Webb's job is bound to be a lot more different and set in much happier surroundings.
