Sitters childcarers love what they do

"Adrash stood in for my nanny and needed no guidance. She's clearly incredibly experienced with children. Very warm and loving - perfect for a baby. I would use her forever if I could - a Godsend!"

"Andrea was full of energy and enthusiasm. Lovely and friendly yet confident. Totally unflappable. My seven year old daughter warmed to her immediately. That is the best test of all."

"Sue was an instant hit with my 3 year old who is usually very clingy with me. This morning the first thing he asked was "Where's Sue?" I would definitely recommend Sue and use her services again."

"An essential lifeline"

"I have used Sitters for years. As a single parent, it's an essential lifeline for me. The sitters I have had to date have been amazing. Definitely child orientated, friendly and most importantly I feel secure leaving my child with them. I would not hesitate to recommend them."

"Our go-to service for childcare"

"Always reliable, professional and secure. Any parent is naturally very worried about leaving their children with a complete stranger for a few hours, but in all our experiences with Sitters, our nerves have always been calmed as soon as their carers walk through the door. They are always our go-to service for childcare any day."
