It was my first time using a childminder and I left home feeling happy and content that my kids were in great hands! Sarah did lots of playing with the kids and even baked some cakes! The children said she was fun and kind . What more can I ask for. I would definitely use again xxx."

"What a joy Modupe was! I'm always nervous about introducing Daniel to a new sitter, mainly because he is disabled and a sitter needs to be able to pick him up if necessary and understand that he is non-verbal and non-mobile. However, I had no need to worry, Modupe picked him up and he snuggled in for cuddle. A lovely warm lady who Daniel took to straight away. Even better, I came home and he was fast asleep and stayed that way until morning! Thank you."

"Very lovely and warm lady and happy to do what ever needed to suit your children. She put me at ease straight away. The kids felt comfortable with Margarida."

"Angelina was fantastic with my two boys aged 5 and nearly 2. My youngest son was a bit apprehensive at first. He is like this with all new people. Angelina quickly engaged him with the perfect level of interaction and he settled in her company faster than I've seen him settle with a new adult before. Angelina arrived early and quickly calmed any nerves we had with her warm and caring nature. She played with the boys until it was time for their bed. She sent us a message updating us when they were asleep. It was a hot night and she made sure the boys were comfortable. They woke up the next morning and my eldest son asked when she will be back. Angelina is a fab sitter and we will definitely be booking with her again."

I recommend Shelley and would love to have her sit for us again in the future."

"Anita was absolutely amazing with my 8.5 month old. She swooped in like Mary Poppins at super short notice, and spent the hours with him singing and playing games and got lots of smiles and giggles from him! My son has achondroplasia, and with this some additional care needs. Anita was completely understanding and adapted perfectly to ensure everything was at his level. Thank you so much Anita for making a recent move and lack of family network to lean on, that little bit easier :) xxx."

"Marta was brilliant, listened and followed my instructions and suggestions. She provided a fun filled day for my sonwho seemed very happy when I returned home. He enjoyed the stories that Marta read to him that are from her own house. Marta encouraged my son to use the potty once and gave him a bath that he thoroughly enjoyed. Marta didn't leave as soon as I re-entered the house and gave a good account of my son's day before she left. I definitely would be happy to use Marta again."

She loves to read and sing to him. My son absolutely loves her. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter. I know it can be hard to trust other people when it's in regards to your little ones but I feel she has earned that trust from my perspective."

"We started with Natasha when my son was 7months old. He is almost 11months old and we absolutely are more in love with her. They have so much fun together. He giggles and laughs so much when they play. Every aspect of the day is a breeze. She is around amazing."

"Little legs had so much fun with Samantha today. What a truly lovely lady."

"The boys loved her. They had a great time playing in the garden and asked when she could come again. Next time she came it was raining so she brought some activities to do with them indoors. We'd be very happy to have her again in the future."

Our boys are very different personalities but she was able to manage both of them with their differing needs and entertainment expectations! We have no hesitation in recommending her."

"My children absolutely enjoyed themselves. Great with all 3 they didn't even say bye to me when I was leaving lol. Thank you again!"

"Julie came to look after my two children (4 and 18months) for a full day and evening. She arrived with bags of toys and they'd made a den in her pop up tent before we'd left the house. The children quickly felt comfortable in Julie's company and didn't even notice us leaving the house. My eldest said he had lots of fun and would like Julie to come back!"

"My son and I felt at soo much ease with Quratulain. She played with him and kept him engaged without a fuss whilst I carried on with house work. Was just the help I needed. She's amazing."

The children found Nicole extremely attentive, and my 2 boys and little girl, had fun with her, drawing and playing with toys. Nicole was sensitive to the needs of our SEN child so he warmed to her very quickly. My children were well entertained and more importantly felt safe., Excellent service! Thanks again so much Nicole!"

"Alison knew exactly how to work with twins as she's had so much experience. The boys instantly took really well to her and enjoyed their time so much.

Highly recommend working with her!"

"Rime was amazing with our daughters (3.5 and 1.5) and a great sitter! We were on vacation in London and a little hesitant to use a random sitter in a foreign country. Rime was so warm and friendly and took to our girls within the first few minutes of meeting them. We felt very comfortable having her watch our girls and would recommend her as a sitter!"

"Is the first time hiring a sitter for my kids and I was very nervous but Aminata make us all feel very calm and her professionalism was beyond expectations. she took care of my two little ones and honestly i think they really enjoy her as next day they where asking if we can call Aminata to play with her, even today after 4 days they still ask for her. I am very please with her service and professionalism. I can't thank enough. Surly we'll call her next time we're in London. Totally reccomend her. Thank you Aminata!"

"Would highly recommend Paula-Jayne. She put my mind at ease, answered all my questions, and made me feel so comfortable ahead of the booking, as this was my first time using Sitters. Prompt, relaxed, clearly experienced, and most importantly made my little girl very happy with regular updates throughout the day. Look forward to using Paula-Jayne again! Thank you!"

"Heather was great! She came with bags of toys, literally! Which my boys loved, despite having lots of toys of their own, they love new toys! She was friendly and the boys took to her really well. They are always a bit teary when I leave and she sent me a picture to show they were now happy and settled. Couldn't have asked for more, thank you!"

"Friendly, supportive and respectful. The children really enjoyed her presence and she's so humble. A Stars..."

"I would definitely have Faiza back to babysit. She did a wonderful job of looking after my 5 and 7 year old. She gave them their dinner, read them a story and got them to fall asleep much earlier than I'm normally be able to. They woke up well rested and happy to have been looked after by Faiza. Faiza has a very calm and confident way about her which was very reassuring and was just what my children needed."

"Nik was amazing, her communication before the appointment was spot on and allowed us to get to know her a bit and to let her know about our children before she turned up. On the day she was on time and had an instant rappour with our children. We would absolutely recommend Nik to anyone and would be delighted to have her sit for our children again. Thanks Nik!"

"Lisa F was brilliant! Having booked Lisa for the first time (for a very late night) with our three girls she took it all in her stride. I felt immediately confident in her ability & left the house not giving my children a second thought - perfect!! Lisa even let my dogs out a few times in the evening & made sure the cat remained inside on a very wet night. We ended up being quite a lot later than we originally planned due to a taxi mishap but again Lisa was relaxed & calm. My girls all raved about her. I would highly recommend Lisa F. Thank you very much Lisa."

"Tito has been our top babysitter by far. Our kids look forward to meeting her and knowing that they find talking to other adults daunting, Tito makes them feel at ease and is always engaging with them. She's always handing over a house that is super tidy and clean when she leaves making it a delight for us to have her."

"Andrea was great with my children, playing games with them before bedtime. She was also very happy to have our mad dog as company!"

"Tanja has sat for us on many occasions now so I just wanted to add another review to say what a genuinely kind and caring person she is. The children are not so little anymore. They are now 9, 10, and 13 so for us it's more about knowing that they have someone at home to make sure they feel safe and looked after when mom and dad are out later in the evening. We always feel relaxed knowing they are in good hands."

"My son had so much fun hanging out with Nadica. They both love travel and Nadica shared so many stories with him that he has been talking about non-stop. We hope to hire her again."

"Hewi was a perfect babysitter for our two boys 10 & 6. He was full of energy and won them over in minutes, which is no mean feat with our oldest who is shy of sitters. He ran a tight ship, but also had fun with them playing games before bedtime. The next morning they both asked if we could have Hewi again (this is a first for us!). Thanks Hewi!"

"Aster was wonderful yet again with my son and another friend's family kids during our bbq - excellent."

"Marcus got glowing reviews from both my kids. My son in particular was really pleased to have a male babysitter for a change and Marcus spent a lot of time engaging with him, chatting to him, playing football and watching videos together. They have both said they would love to have Marcus sit for them again."

"We absolutely love Petra. Wow did she impress us! Our toddler typically has major separation anxiety, but after 15 minutes of playing with Petra she enthusiastically waved goodbye to us with a smile on her face. Petra won her over with her gentle, yet attentive nature and made us feel so comfortable the entire night. Will definitely be asking her back!"

"Mimi is absolutely adorable! It was the first time I hired a nanny for my daughter and I was more than a little nervous, but Mimi put me at ease immediately and took great care of her even if she was sick and wingy. She's very patient and caring. Thanks you Mimi!"

"Friendly, kind and chatty. Felt very comfortable with Rebecca. Happy to have her to look after my son again."

"Tina was brilliant. She spent time with all three of my kids, really interested in them and their lives. My youngest, in particular, enjoyed playing with her. Experienced in SEN, Tina understood the quirks of our three spectrum children, and wasn't fazed in the slightest. all three of them (and myself) would be happy to recommend Tina and have no hesitation in booking her again."

"Kit has babysat my children on several occasions over the years. They genuinely enjoy their time with her and always talk very enthusiastically the next morning about what they have done together. She is very imaginative and immerses them in various crafts and creative activities, often to the point that they want to carry on doing them the following day. I cannot recommend her enough."

"Marcia was prompt, friendly, helpful and accommodating with a timing change. Our 6 year old son enjoyed spending time with her so that's a win!"

"Lorna was fantastic with our one-year-old son! It was the first time we had left him with a baby sitter and Lorna put us right at ease. She showed up 10 minutes early and was great with engaging with my son right from the start. She was very friendly and didn't mind our dog. We would definitely look to have her sit again!"

"Aysel saved us last minute when we lost our babysitter. She was super responsive and made us feel super comfortable. She watched our son while asleep in the hotel, and asked all the right questions and checked in to let us know everything was okay. She was a lifesaver!"

"Tirhas is a wonderful babysitter! She spent the evening with my children and they had an amazing time. She was engaging, patient, and made sure they were safe and happy throughout the night. She was especially comforting to my daughter, reassuring her that we would definitely come back. The kids can't stop talking about how much fun they had with her. Thank you, Tirhas, for your exceptional care and kindness!"

"Victoria is the best! Our two kids keep asking us when she's coming back. They've particularly enjoyed all drawings and colouring they did with Victoria. We've enjoyed hearing that they'd gone to bed super easily!"

"Michael was a fantastic sitter. I'd made a mistake on our profile and he turned up expecting a 10 year old and instead got an 8 month old. Totally unphased he immediately got involved and our daughter really took to him. We had been worried about how she'd react to a new person caring for her but it was all smiles and laughter and Michael managed to get her sleeping in her cot too. Can't recommend Michael highly enough."

"Daniella arrived on time and immediately made me feel at ease. We had communicated prior as my daughter has anxiety around me going out. This is the first time she's been with a sitter and they had the best time. Daniella is warm and softly spoken, she even managed to get my very shy boy talking. Something not many people manage! I would love to have Daniella back in the future and highly recommend her to others. What a gem."

"Noaeem was an absolute reassuring delight and would highly recommend!! My children absolutely adored their time spent with Noaeem and actually begged for mum and dad to have another date night! Noaeem kept in touch during the evening and made us feel at ease. Would 1000% recommend Noaeem, she is a wonderful, caring person who really cares for your children ! Thank you!!!"

"Our baby daughter had a lovely time with Amanda, who is clearly experienced and talented with childcare. Amanda was easy going and interested in understanding our baby's routine, care needs and likes. We would definitely ask her back."

"Thank you to Theresa for stepping in for us! She is so bubbly, warm and energetic! Just what we needed for our anxious 6 year old son who it can take a while for him to warm to people. Loved how Theresa immediately engaged with him and after ten mins was already chasing him round the house and playing hide and seek! She also kept us up to date throughout the evening putting our mind at rest. Thank you Theresa!"

"Rachel is an absolute ray of sunshine! She made my two children (8 & 6) feel safe and relaxed immediately. She engaged them in fun games, read with them and put them to bed. She even sent us a message to update us whilst we were out. We knew they were in safe hands. Thank you Rachel."

"We had the pleasure of having Jess babysit our two young children, both under 2 years old, and we couldn't be more impressed with her. Jess was absolutely fantastic with them, engaging them in a variety of activities and ensuring they were happy and entertained the entire time. She demonstrated incredible patience, creativity, and care, which made our children feel comfortable and excited to spend time with her. From reading stories to playing games, Jess kept them engaged and content. It's clear that she genuinely enjoys working with kids, and her warm and nurturing demeanor made a significant positive impact. We wholeheartedly recommend Jess to any family looking for a reliable and exceptional babysitter. She went above and beyond our expectations. Thank you, Jess, for your outstanding care and dedication!"

"Kerry was absolutely fantastic with our 5yo boy. He said "next weekend I want to do something with Kerry again". She did a nice combination of garden, artsy, park and shopping. Super patient. Would highly recommend."

"Julie sat for us for the first time at the weekend. Julie rang on the morning to confirm what time she'd be with us later on. Julie arrived with bags of toys & books and my daughter (13) and son (6) had a fabulous afternoon playing board games and doing activities outside. They would both love to have Julie sit for them again and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to other families."

"Carol came in last minute as our original sitter had fallen sick. She was so wonderfully engaging with us and our 2 kids (ages 9 and 6), both in conversation and in games. Both girls really liked spending time with Carol. We would absolutely have her watch our kids again!"

"Azeb didn't get to meet our son for more than a minute yet since our booking was late in the evening, but she was very sweet and brought a toy with her. She also cleaned our main living space and organized the toys in such a fun way for our son, which we didn't expect and were thoroughly impressed by! We are excited for our son to meet her next time."

"Gaynor was simply fantastic! Kind, patient, experienced, punctual, 100% attentive. From the moment she arrived, she put my 14 month old completely at ease - I was initially worried that we might have to deal with separation anxiety, but she approached my little boy with such a calm caring demeanour that he was playing beautifully with her by the time we left! Not a single tear! She also diligently kept us updated throughout the day/night so we could totally relax. We cannot recommend Gaynor highly enough. Our only complaint is that she's not based in London so we can use her more often!! Thank you again!"

"Tsehainesh is lovely. she instantly connected with my 10 months old baby girl and sh kept her entertained with games and songs while I was working in the other room. We are so happy to have found Tsehainesh and we hope to get her back for future bookings."

"Jane was absolutely excellent a true professional. Jane reassured the children, played games and read bedtime books. Jane was a calming presence to the children when they were naturally anxious as their parents left for a rare night out. The children adored Jane and have asked for her to come back.."

"Lydia was lovely. She made the kids feel at ease and even Introduced them to some new board games they've been playing all weekend."

"Gemma was brilliant! She emailed us first thing to confirm the booking and ask if there was anythins she should be aware of etc. When Gemma arrived the place was a bit chaotic - with friends of the kids with us, our two not fed etc and Gemma took this completely in her stride and was last seen heading to the back garden to play cricket! We also arrived home later than planned and again Gemma was completely unphased! So highly, highly recommended! Thanks Gemma!"

"Anita was on time, communicated well and asked all the right questions (several I hadn't thought of) about bedtimes, devices etc. She quickly made friends with our loud and protective Labrador, and the look of joy on my son's face (when he realised he had found someone who would play monopoly with him!) was a joy to behold. Would totally recommend!"

"First time using Sitters for my 13 and 11 year old sons. Linda called to messaged me to confirm the booking and took my call so that I could go through the needs of my younger son who is neurodiverse. She had a good understanding of what was needed and put me at ease ahead of the booking. When she arrived she was relaxed and had brought a "get to know you" sheet which she filled in with my kids. They each spent over an hour talking to her and felt like she had got to know them and looked after them really well! I am very impressed."

"Another wonderful visit by Tina. She remained patient with our young girls (18 months and 3 years old), made them dinner and ensured they went to sleep with their bellies full. We feel very comfortable with her and are very thankful!"

"Tracey has looked after our children a few times, they adore her! She also makes us feel very comfortable providing quick updates to let us know everything is fine - she is a true gem!!"

"Kate was outstanding. I have never seen a calmer woman than her. She has got extensive experience in childcare . When i came back, my boys were all full of praises for her as to how she played with them and kept them comfortable. They did not even miss me! I will recommend Kate to anyone anytime."

"Tas blew us away with how professional and just how experienced she was with children. Nobody batted an eye lid, not least my child who had met her for the first time, while they got on great and cracked on with their day like they'd known each other all along! Cannot recommend Tas enough."

"Brenda was amazing with my children. I felt relieved knowing she was coming as she has two children of her own so I knew she'd know how to deal with my 4 months old. Highly recommended baby sitter, thanks again !"

"Really good experience with Maria, she was patient and fun. My daughter liked and felt comfortable with her. She took her for walk / park and helped me 3 days last week, no complaints and will certainly book with her again."

"As usual very good experience, she is reliable, kind and fun. Took my daughter to the nearby library where she enjoyed some activities for her age group."

"Sarah was a wonderful Sitter who kindly looked after our 3 month old daughter during the evening reception of my sister's wedding. She arrived early and instantly put us at ease. I felt confident and relaxed leaving her, and was able to enjoy myself! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sarah and hope we will be able to use her services again in the future. Thank you Sarah!"

"Stephanie babysat my three year old boy while I was at a wedding. She was fantastic. Very reliable, professional and friendly. My son was instantly at ease with her and had a fun afternoon and evening playing - meant I could enjoy the wedding without worrying!"

"Nathalie is amazing, Very responsive to babies needs, she made sure my daughter eats healthy, too. xxx."

"Samantha was brilliant - warm, professional, and not at all phased by the strange nature of our sitting request! (She came to a sporting event and watched our 1 year old all day while my husband and I were competing). Our daughter took to her straightaway and they clearly had a lovely day together. Would highly recommend!"

"Rute was very lovely and did an amazing job with my son. She spent a whole day with him, and eventhough my son is at the age where he doesnt like or accept new people, she managed to break the ice with him and engaged so well with him. He didnt want her to leave by the end of the day!"

"Both children warmed to Jill immediately and felt comfortable with her. She was excellent with them, offering assurance to me and my wife. Bedtime seemed to go smoothly and she was kind enough to message us and keep us updated, this being the first time anyone other than family had taken care of the children in our home. I would highly recommend Jill to anyone."

"It was our first time having Leah as our babysitter. My children had an instant connection with her, she made lovely breakfast and lunch for them, helped them to do their homework, read lots of books for them, played in the garden with them and filled the day with lots of other fun activities. Leah was very friendly and also very professional. We definitely recommend Leah, really looking forward to see her again soon."
