"We were very nervous to leave our 9 month old with Hannah at our hotel while we attended a wedding. But she was so lovely with our son from the moment she arrived and she sent regular updates and photos to keep us in the loop. She called the day before which was reassuring and followed all our instructions to a T. She also gave a written handover of everything to us at the end which was very helpful.Thank you Hannah for taking such good care of our baby!"

"Adele was excellent taking care of our girls, (7 months and 3 years) as a back up childcare day. Her calm demeanour and kind attitude throughout the day won the girls over and gave us complete peace of mind. She played with the girls, puzzles, tea, dolls, stickers, you name it… she also managed all meals and even helped prepare some food that we will freeze and are super grateful for! Thank you Adele!"

"Samantha was totally brilliant from start to finish and my girls - a one year old and three year old - immediately felt comfortable with her. Samantha took the girls to the playground and they had a fab time. They were all smiles when they got home and told me what a fun time they’d had. Samantha was great at organising the girls and called me to reassure me that all was well. Samantha is very experienced, professional and friendly and clearly knows what she is doing with children. I would have no hesitation about recommending her or booking her again. "

"Vilma came early to learn the ‘lay of the land’ and to know all exits as well as to get to know our daughter a bit before we left; it was her first time sitting for her. She was wonderful with our four-year-old who had a great time doing puzzles with her and playing! Vilma is a lovely person with a responsible persona and a great heart; we would welcome her again any time!"

"Anna was awesome! 🤩 Within minutes she’d engaged with our baby and toddler (not always an easy feat) and had gained their trust and smiles. She played with them, created games, cared about their welfare (suggested sun cream), helped feed them throughout the day. We felt very confident in leaving our children with her and look forward to seeing Anna again soon!"

"Sam was fantastic. Asked wonderful questions, listened carefully to us and to my son, Brax who has complex care needs. He loved spending time with Sam and we felt so comfortable as a result. Sam is also a lovely person and I look forward to working with her again"

"Janine was absolutely fantastic. We hired Janine to look after our 5 month old on the day of our wedding at the venue, and I am struggling to put in words how appreciative I was of her. Our little one has been struggling a bit with unknown faces (crying when not with mum/dad) and from the moment she arrived he was all smiles and giggles! She stayed at the venue and brought him over for pictures, took him for many walks around the beautiful grounds. We had a video call a couple of weeks before the event to go over babys routine and she had actually done a wedding previously! She then checked in with us again the day or so before the event which just gave us more confidence for the day. She has since sent some beautiful photos of her time with Trey on the grounds and had even kept a schedule of his sleep/nappies/food from the day before handing him back over to us. I cannot recommend Janine enough, she made us feel at ease on one of the biggest days of our life. Thank you so much Janine!! "

"Wendy was lovely - this was our first time using a babysitter and she put me at ease immediately, was really great with our 6 month old and really easy going and flexible to our slightly chaotic family wedding environment! Would highly recommend and will definitely be booking Wendy again when we’re down in Wiltshire/somerset again. "

"In the words of our three year old Loraine was the best babysitter because she played with me and came outside with me and let me have a banana! Loraine was fab from start to finish - taking a very last minute booking for us and immediately putting our little one at ease. She had loads of fun and didn’t want Loraine to go home! Would certainly recommend to others and we look forward to having Loraine sit for us again. "

"Clare was warm and friendly from the outset, immediately putting both us and our son at ease. She arrived right on time and kept in touch beforehand, which we really appreciated. Our son absolutely loved spending time with her and is already looking forward to her next visit. She engaged with him beautifully, and we felt completely confident leaving him in her capable hands. We’d happily recommend Clare to other families. "

"It was Joanne's first time babysitting for us but we were instantly put at our ease the minute she arrived. She was so calm and confident and immediately interacted with both children. My daughter woke up while we were out but Joanne sat with her and comforted her until she fell back to sleep. We were able to enjoy our evening knowing that our children were in the best hands. Thanks so much Joanne 😊"

"Emma was the 1st person we met. I was quite nervous beforehand as I have never had a baby sitter before but I didn’t need to be. Emma was fantastic we had her for two days running and my 3 children loved having her look after them. My son says he wants to have Emma next time. Very calm, reassuring and very kind. Emma gave my youngest child a lot of one to one which she really enjoyed. Would definitely recommend and book to have Emma again! "

"It was our first time using a babysitter for our 5 and 3 year old boys. Rebecca put us at ease straight away, providing updates on how things were going and leaving us very comfortable and able to enjoy a night out. We would definitely recommend Rebecca and will hopefully be able to have her come to babysit again for us in the future."

"Katie is fantastic, we have always been hesitant with babysitters and with the school holidays we had no other choice than to get help and I’m so glad we did. Katie’s approach with the kids was so well received, by the end of the first day, they didn’t want her to go! So glad we found Katie, she is so calm and the kids absolutely love her. Will continue to use her over the summer holidays and all the half term breaks too. "

"Coming from Spain, we were a bit reluctant about this babysitting service because in our country is not something common, but our one year and a half daughter fell instantly in love with Veronica. She took care of her for two days, played with her, feed her and put her to sleep. We won't hesitate in counting on her the next time we come to England. Thanks, Veronica!"

"Jo helped us at very short notice with our two daughters (7mths and 3 years) for a full day when we needed backup care. She was great and our eldest adopted her within 30mins allowing me to get on a call and my husband to work. She took everything in her stride and helped with food, tidying up and all! Thank you fairy Jo!"

"Angelica, was genuinely, lovely! It was my first time hiring a babysitter and leaving my child in the care of a stranger. I was nervous about that. However, it immediately became apparent that there was nothing to worry about. My 6 year old son son took to her immediately! She exuded warmth and thoughtfulness from the get go. My son loved her. She is highly recommended!"

She asked all the right questions, quickly got on top of the kids’ schedule, and put together an activity-filled day that kept them happy and engaged. Tonia also prepared a healthy, filling lunch, which was a great bonus. The children warmed to her straight away, and we felt completely at ease with her in charge. Highly recommended!"

"Julia is an absolutely wonderful babysitter, I can't recommend her highly enough. Chatty, friendly and engaging with our children (8,10,13) she was also flexible when I came home slightly later than expected. Julia is very highly qualified along with having exceptional experience with ND families. Feedback from our kids says it all - 'she is AMAZING', 'she is SO nice when is she coming back?'. Thank you so much too for your 'pottering' - an incredible surprise. We'd book Julia again with zero hesitation."
Claire, Edinburgh, EH10
"Elise was an absolute delight! I had complete peace of mind leaving my 2-year-old son with her, no easy feat considering he's going through a very clingy phase and doesn’t like being apart from his mom. Elise handled it all with such grace, patience, and professionalism. She instantly made him feel safe and cared for, which allowed me to step away without worry. I can’t recommend her enough!"

I felt completely confident leaving him in her care, and I’d absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!"

"It was a lovely experience for all of us having Debs sitting for our two children. She called in advance to find out a bit about the children and then (having checked it was ok) arrived 15 mins early and even brought some lovely presents for them! Our children are not always the easiest, but Debs managed the demands and separation anxiety of one and engaged with the passivity of the other calmly and in a friendly manner. We’re keen for her to babysit for us again. Thanks very much Debs!"
Chris, Gwent, NP19

"Gemma was fantastic with both of my boys that are non-verbal. She communicated with me a lot and sent me some lovely pictures she got of my babies. She played with them water play and playing catch with anything my son decided to use as a ball. Made sure dinner was done on time and stuck to their routine. Absolutely amazing with my boys and she made me feel at ease how she was in contact before asking everything she needs to know for them. Will definitely use Gemma again to look after my boys. Thankyou Gemma. "

Our son not only had a great few days out and about with Dagmara, but he also had a healthy few days. Thanks Dagmara! "

"Tina was completely fantastic. She looked after our daughter Marina, who's 12 months-old, during our wedding weekend. She handled feeding, bathing and putting her to bed, and looked after her overnight. She's got a great manner with children and by the end of it all felt like part of the family. Would strongly recommend and would definitely use again."
ROGER, Hinton St. George, TA17
"When Tessa arrived, she immediately engaged with my 5 year old son asking him questions about his stuff and getting him to talk to her so he would feel comfortable. It was a longer sitting, so she prepared his dinner and afterwards played several games and read a book until it was time for bed. They hit it off so well, he asked if she would stay the night? He told us the next morning how much fun they had and wanted to know when she'd return. Would recommend Tessa."
Christopher, Kent, TN4
"Soraya arrived promptly at our hotel room to look after our son for the evening. There was excellent communication beforehand. She was very friendly and approachable; my son very much enjoyed playing with her from the start and we felt comfortable and confident with Soraya. Soraya carried out our son's evening routine as requested (dinner, bath, story etc) and got him to sleep. She gave an update as the evening progressed as well as at the end of the session. The following day our son kept asking where Soraya was and what she was getting up to! Thank-you for looking after our son so well."

She was friendly, flexible, communicated with us very well about the booking, and spent an amazing day with our 11-year-old while we attended an all-day event. Her knowledge of the area, and her experience as a mom, created a perfect situation where she was able to suggest really fun activities for our son. We kept in touch during the day and she shared photos and video He had a great time with her, exceeding our expectations. We would happily recommend her to anyone in need of caregiving."

It felt like I knew Darcy for a long time. I would definitely recommend her to any SEND or Autism parent, as she has experience working with them too. I would definitely book Darci again, thank you so much."

"We are traveling from the US and were very nervous: we have four kids (age 3, 7, 10 and 13), they were jetlagged, the little one skipped his nap, and we were in unfamilar surtoundings. Sonjia came early and the kids felt instantly safe. Nobody protested when we left, the transition was very smooth. She is very gentle, kind, competent, has so much experience, has a positive attitude, and was unphased by the many challenges we were bringing. She stayed about 10 hours with them. She was lovely and able to relate to all the kids despite their different ages. She asked us all the right questions before we left. She even brought several books for the 3 year old, took him on a walk to see the ducks. My teenager loved her. Thank you Sonjia."
