Emma has babysat for us on a number of occasions and she is the first person outside of family that I had left our now 15 month old with. I was quite anxious the first time we left our daughter, but Emma's professionalism and gentle nature put me at ease immediately and I had a great evening out knowing that she was on the other end of the phone if I needed that reassurance! I haven't looked back since and our daughter absolutely loves spending time with Emma - her way with children and her vast experience with young ones mean that she is able to put both adults and children at ease straight away. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Emma and am so grateful that we found her when we did!
