Laura looked after my daughter whilst we were at a wedding and upon meeting her she immediately put my mind at ease and I wasn’t concerned leaving my little girl at all. Laura provided lots of updates throughout the day and it was clear that my daughter was having the best time. I’d recommend Laura to everyone and theres no one else or better I’d choose to babysit in future.

Laura was fantastic. We we’re traveling to a different area and knew no-one who could babysit for us whilst we attended a wedding. I was nervous but Laura put my mind completely at ease from the moment i spoke to her. We face timed prior to the job and again she put me at ease. Although she was new to my two young children she bonded with them straight away and they enjoyed playing with her. I was comfortable to leave them in her care. She was very accommodating for us. I highly recommend Laura and would book her again. Thank you Laura x

Thank you for such a positive review Kerry, was lovely to meet you all x

We were abit apprehensive about getting a babysitter we didn’t know for our 4 year old boy, having had a couple of no shows, even more so.
However we came across Laura on here and from the first contact her communication was great, we asked for a visit before hand and it was like we’d known her for years.

We have already arranged another night both us and our boy are really happy. She really knows how to put you at ease and was great with the boy.

My partner and I were seeking a babysitter to assist us with the care of our 18 month old little girl for our wedding day. We came across Laura on the website and saw that she was local to us. We were a little apprehensive about leaving our daughter with an unfamiliar person, but after meeting Laura we immediately felt at ease. We booked Laura for a number of sessions prior to the wedding day to see how our daughter responded to her care. Laura was amazing and our daughter loved playing games with her and Laura was very attentive to her needs.
On our wedding day Laura came to look after our daughter into the night so that we could enjoy the celebrations together, knowing that our daughter was in safe hands with Laura.
Her communication and reliability was great.
We cannot recommend Laura enough and would use her again in a heartbeat. One of the best decisions in our wedding day planning.
Thankyou Laura
