I tried Sam for the first time today, and she did an excellent job. She cleaned thoroughly and managed to get everything done within the time booked. I was really pleased with her attention to detail and efficiency. I’ll definitely be calling on her again. Highly recommend!

The kindest and sweetest nanny/babysitter we have ever had. My son loved spending time with her, and she showed him so much kindness and care. I couldn’t recommend her more – she’s kind, reliable, and wonderful with children. She has been so supportive towards me and has gone above and beyond for both of us. My son and me both already look forward to next time she looks after him! ♥️

Minna has been tutoring my son for just over a year, and the growth he has had has been phenomenal. Minna has the patience, discipline and duty of care. She truly is passionate about her students growth both academically and in life. She was able to break things down to fit my son’s ability and understanding and he loves going to tuition, it’s something he looks forward to. She also helps us as parents navigate and help our child by giving tips and pointers how we can help him at home which I think is invaluable.Thank you Minna
Giv was really great with our toddler Arlo, our usual family childcare fell through so we were scrambling and Giv came through for us. She took Arlo out to the playground and they had a lovely time and were great friends. She was punctual, friendly and got on really well with our child. I will definitely book her again for babysitting and childcare!

Leila has been looking after my son for the past month in a few occasions. As a first time mum it was important for me to have someone I could trust and that I felt comfortable with. Leila made sure that we eased into it by transitioning slowly from both being at home whilst she watched my son to me leaving for a short period of time and then them just spending time together without me around. I feel more at ease because she took the time to build rapport with my child, my dog and myself.
My son is a very active toddler and Leila knows how to keep him entertained and happy.
Leila sometimes can be a helping hand around the house which is very much appreciated after a long day.
She has also been accommodating with booking her at short notice for exceptional circumstances and she also makes sure to send her availability in advance so families can organise themselves.
I’m very grateful we found her.
We are so happy with Sahira and cannot recommend her enough. She genuinely cares about what my little boy enjoys and always finds ways to include his interests in their daily activities. The crafts she does with the children are amazing, creative, fun, and so thoughtful. Sahira takes the kids on lovely outings to the library and other places, making every day exciting and educational. She always makes sure they are dressed appropriately for the weather and activities, which shows how much attention and care she gives to every detail. I also really appreciate how she looks after their routines, even helping them brush their teeth and learn good habits. It is clear she puts a lot of love and effort into her work, and we feel very lucky to have her caring for our son.
We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better childminder. She has been an incredible part of our lives for the past three years, caring for our daughter since she was just one year old, and more recently our baby boy for the past few months. From day one, she has been loving, patient, reliable, and truly devoted to our children’s well-being.
She has become like part of our family always flexible, understanding, and supportive no matter what life throws our way. Our daughter absolutely adores her and still talks about her all the time, which says everything about the wonderful bond they share.
We have complete peace of mind knowing our children are safe, happy, and loved in her care. She provides a nurturing environment full of fun, learning, and warmth, and we honestly don’t know what we would have done without her.
What a gift it has been to have Jennifer as our nanny! She has helped take care of my toddler and my baby since he was a newborn, but really she has been taking care of the entire family with love, grace and enthusiasm. She is extremely reliable, trustworthy and goes out of her way to make sure everyone’s needs are met. She really IS part of the family and both my children absolutely love her. She has been amazing at coming up with specific activities for my 2.5 years old to help her acquire new skills while following her interests, and my baby boy lights up every time she walks in the room. She brings such joy, professionalism and care every time she walks in the house. 1000% recommend!

Paula looked after our son over 2 weeks whilst our usual child care arrangements were not available. She was incredibly kind and nurturing towards our son and he loved his time at little seeds. Thank you Paula!

Karen was an exceptional nanny to our twins and our eldest son. At the time, I had three children under the age of three and was finding it difficult to manage everything. Karen joined us two days a week, and those quickly became my favourite days — everything just felt easier and happier when she was here.
She primarily cared for our twin girls, allowing me to spend more one-on-one time with my eldest. The girls absolutely adored her. Karen regularly took them to playgroups, organised engaging activities at home, and prepared their meals — all with warmth, energy, and professionalism.
Her extensive childcare experience was evident in everything she did, but it was her kind, friendly nature that made her feel like a true part of our family. I only wish we could have kept her with us longer, but the twins were due to start nursery alongside their brother later that year.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Karen to any family — she is a wonderful nanny and an even more wonderful person.
We love Vaidehi, and so does our 9month old daughter. We’d never organised childcare before but Vaidehi made the whole thing really easy: she’s reassuring, engaging and receptive to our specific asks around how we want our girl brought up (EC, baby-led weaning, being walked to sleep, gentle parenting — nothing crazy, but Vaidehi handles my helicopter parenting like a pro). It takes a village, and Vaidehi is an indispensable part of our village.
Kaye has been our childminder for 6 years +, and from the very beginning, she’s felt like part of the family. Her warm, nurturing nature immediately put both my son and daughter at ease, creating an environment where they felt safe, happy, and cared for.
Her thoughtful daily photo updates brought so much comfort during those early days back at work—they were a real lifeline and a lovely window into our children’s days. Kaye provides a home-from-home experience, preparing nutritious meals, fostering friendships across different age groups, and planning regular outings to parks and playgroups. Her activities are always fun, engaging, and aligned with the early years curriculum too!
We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Kaye as our childminder—she’s been such a special and important part of our children’s early years.
Stacey agreed to attend our home today for an initial meet. I stayed home from work to make this happen at her preferred time (lunchtime), which she suggested.
2 hours prior, at 11am, I messaged Stacey to forward her my home address only to be sharply informed, "Sorry for the short notice but I’ve actually been offered something else. Best of luck with finding someone."
It is really frustrating how people like Stacey discard commitment without considering their reputation and the knock-on effect on the disappointed party.
Victoria is truly our angel on earth. She has been a constant source of love, care, and support for my little boy, Roman. Despite his ongoing health condition, Victoria treats him with the same kindness and inclusion as all the other children, making him feel safe, happy, and valued every single day.
Her dedication goes far beyond what anyone could ask for in a childminder. She ensures Roman receives his medication responsibly and communicates with his healthcare professional to ensure he still has follow ups even when he is with Victoria.
Knowing that Roman is in Victoria’s care gives me complete peace of mind — she truly has his best interests at heart. Her compassion, professionalism, and genuine love for the children she looks after are remarkable. We are so grateful to have her in our lives. ❤️
