Sarah has been with us for 8 months now and fitted amazingly into our family. She has offered sage advice, support and a wide experience of all things ‘baby’ and ‘twins’.
Sarah’s easy going approach and caring attitude towards our twin girls and older boy set her apart from other help we have had in the past. Thank you so much for your help and support. We will miss you!

Thank you for the lovely review. You both made me feel very welcome & I will sincerely miss working with you all.
Sarah did some nannying for my little boy for several months before he started nursery - she’s friendly, calm, capable, trustworthy and my little boy absolutely loved her. He’d give a massive grin when she arrived and they’d have a great time playing together. She’s babysat for us since and will defo have her back for more babysitting. Definitely recommend!

Thank you for your kind words. I’m missing J’s infectious laugh and heartwarming smile. It’s been a pleasure looking after him
Sarah is an amazing Nanny to our 7 month old who absolutely adores her.
She's given us great advice over the last 4 months on sleep, weaning and development and has helped us set up a solid sleep routine that has kept baby (and mom and dad) happy.
Her help in the early stages of our baby's life has been truly invaluable. We're so grateful that we found Sarah and would highly recommend her to anyone!

Thank you for the lovely Review. It has been such a joy working with you all in those first precious Months.
I can’t speak highly enough of Sarah! Sarah is very kind, considerate, professional and knowledgeable. She started working for us as a night nanny when our twin boys were just 10 weeks old. When they started sleeping through, she continued with us in the day. She taught us techniques to help with sleep, which have worked a dream, we have two toddlers that are great sleepers! I would recommend her to any parents needing support with sleep. We feel very lucky to have her as part of our family.

Thank you so much for the review and for making me feel so welcome. I’ve have enjoyed every minute nurturing, playing and helping the boys grow in their first year.
Sarahs help has been invaluable in helping us with sleep routines for our newborn and toddler and we’ve learnt some lasting tips and techniques that will make a big difference to our family moving forward. She managed to fit us into an already busy schedule as we needed help quickly and is clearly very much in demand. Genuinely passionate about what she does, we wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to or work with again if needed and the opportunity was there. Thanks again for all your help.

Thank you for the review Tim. I really enjoyed helping you and your lovely family. I wish you all the best in your parenting journey and look for forward to an update on your progress soon
Sarah is a brilliant nanny. She helped me with my newborn baby and toddler of 2.5 years for 9 months. Sarah is friendly and approachable. She is full of tips and advice on subjects such as routines, feeding and especially sleep. She helped get my new baby into a really good routine. She is also excellent at entertaining older children and is always coming up with creative things to do. I would recommend Sarah to anybody!
