We used the Gloucestershire Wedding Nanny for our wedding in July. As soon as Claire arrived, she knew exactly what needed to be done and the weight was then lifted off our shoulders. Claire is incredibly organised and fantastic with children. The children all had plenty of toys and crafts to keep them entertained.
Once the children were in bed, Claire stopped and stayed all night while we continued the party. She was incredible and we couldn’t have had anyone better for our day. Some of the parents (including us) then asked Claire if she was available for a permanent nanny role which I hope she considers as we would love her to be ours!! The parents all agreed that without Claire we wouldn’t have enjoyed the night fully as we couldn’t all party.
The Gloucestershire Wedding Nanny is really something special and a must have for weddings and nannying. We cannot thank her enough for everything she’d done! We can’t wait to see her again. Thank you from all of us!

The service was outstanding. Claire was so great on the day. We had travelled 3.5 hours to the venue on the morning and realised we left a few bits at home. Which included the pushchair!! So she brought with her a pushchair and baby monitor which we hadn’t even thought of the when our children were sleeping. Claire offered a playdate before hand but due to the location we couldn’t. She brought toys, a teepee, books and games. We were even given a toy which our daughter loved and we’d never seen before. I would definitely recommend The Gloucestershire Wedding Nanny to anyone!

A MASSIVE thank you to Claire. We booked The Gloucestershire Wedding Nanny for our outdoor ceremony and evening. From the initial conversation to the day was a 5 star service. Claire looked after ours and our family members children all day despite having a few last minute extra children to the list. The children were happy and cared for all day and the parents had an incredible day without worry. A big thank you for everything you done on the day! Thank you, AK x

Cannot thank you enough.
The stress of a wedding is hard enough. So last minute we needed something for the children so we asked Claire . She set up an indoor den for the kids and then she had an outdoor area with bubbles and toys. The children had great fun all day with Claire and the parents didn't need to do anything.
Claire attended the wedding with the children and after they had great fun.
We then kept Claire as a babysitter at the hotel and the parents mostly got to their rooms by midnight.
It was a magical set up and even though we asked Claire last minute, she had all the supplies and toys needed.
What an incredible service for the day. Well worth the money for the whole day set up.
Thank you once again Claire without you we wouldn't have had the day we did.

There was 23 of us in total which included 12 children of all ages.
She really does have so much love to give. Not only did she care for our children, she entertained and cared for my friends children.
Claire immediately put us at ease from first contact and she clearly is highly qualified and the most organised person we know. She brought a range of toys and games for all of the children which was great.
It’s such a shame we will only see Claire when we have large functions as we don’t live near but we can guarantee our friends who are local to her now have her booked. We booked Claire for Christmas and New Years and will be booking her again. The bond we now all have with our new born is stronger than ever and that’s all thanks to Claire. We can’t thank her enough for what she did for our family. I know our friends who live here will be booking Claire on a regular basis. What a gem!
I would have no hesitation in recommending Claire to anyone and I’m so pleased we found her.

Claire was fantastic. She arrived in plenty of time and nothing was too much trouble - including a much later finish time. She enabled the parents to enjoy the evening of a family wedding whilst she looked after the babies and 4 year old in the main house. When given the option to return to the party or stay with Claire my four year old chose staying with Claire!!! We honestly couldn't rate Claire highly enough and just sad that we don't live near enough to Gloucester to use her more regularly. Fantastic experience - thankyou so much. x

Initially it was for the odd occasional babysitting we wanted Claire but we then decided to increase it to the weekends. Claire takes the children on day trips which they love. She’s also helped with the children feeding our animals- the children now do this on a daily basis which is so adorable! I now work weekends when Claire is able to have my tribe and my husband works weekdays which works really well for our family.

We found Claire when we needed wraparound childcare for our children.
We only moved to the area in February 2020. Our family are in the Birmingham area so it was difficult to have relatives to help. We were only looking for help to move house and to care for the children, however, the bond and care that Claire gave them it was clear to see they loved her.
Covid has a massive impact on our family and my wife lost her job. Claire made sure we had everything we needed, gave us great advice and helped with providing Information on the support we could get through the pandemic.
We are both truly grateful that we found Claire where she provided care in her home and ours when we needed.
She will be forever apart of our family and I cannot wait for the summer holidays for the adventures the children will have with her.

Couldn’t rate Claire enough.
Having three kids, twins and a 3 year old to look after. She was incredible. Me and my wife were very anxious at finding someone. What a blessing it was finding Claire. Always on call! Thank you once again!

I don’t usually write reviews, but I felt this time was a must.
Claire helped us out over the past few months tutoring our children.
From the first day Claire brought the exact aged books for the children in order to provide a structured learning plan. She arrived with an activity bag which the children loved and even took the children out on days out.
Me and my wife are so pleased that we found her and can’t wait for half term to help with school work and taking the chi,Daren out. We really do feel at ease with Claire and the children even ask if she can visit on weekends - which she does!!
Claire has provided support for our children and I feel they have made an incredible progress as the online learning was a struggle.
Claire was and remains incredibly flexible and I can’t wait to see what the next half term brings.
Me and my wife had a brief holiday during the year and Claire provided support when we were there. She also babysat in the hotel which was a bonus when we had a wedding.
Super excited for the children and for the help she brings.

Claire has looked after my babies while my husband has been away working from June to July. They’re 6 weeks old and I knew, once my husband was away, I would find it difficult managing the home, caring for my babies and looking after 2 dogs.
Claire is an outstanding childminder, I was able to drop my babies off and have a few hours to myself. I didn’t think I needed the few hours, but it has helped me greatly. Claire on many occasions over the time we had her has taken the dogs for long walks and even helped us with housework which has been a god send.
I was worried that my husband was leaving and I would really struggle, but I found Claire and I do really hope she will be available to help us out again!!

Claire has been such a delight through what we thought was a difficult time! We had a tough few weeks at the beginning of lockdown. Claire entertained our daughter both Saturdays and Sundays and continues to do so. We couldn’t have asked for more! We love her!

Claire has looked after our 6 month baby a couple of times since we decided to move to the area. We felt at ease and our baby loves her. Claire has had him over night and all day which has been a blessing for us to have our time and to catch up on the much needed house work. When Claire doesn’t have our baby, she has done the ironing and washing in her home and delivered it back to us the next day. Claire also takes our dog out with her and is an incredible part of our family. I would thoroughly recommend Claire.

Claire cared for our children when we both decided to work from home.
She arrived with a bag full of art supplies and games. She immediately had a great relationship with them.
They went out on days out, to the park and made sure lunch was prepared and healthy.
I really hope Claire will have some availability in the near future to care for our children again.
I must say that working from home was perfect and I couldn’t recommend her enough as an excellent ad-hoc nanny.

We desperately needed an emergency childminder as ours would give me less than a days notice that she was unable to care for our children, Which would leave us in a difficult position with work. I called Claire up and that morning and she stepped in. My children have become attached to her and we couldn’t think of anyone more suited. Incredible and such a dedicated person, I just wish Claire had availability from September!!

Claire has been my daughters part time nanny since 2018. I’ve never had a nanny before.
Claire has been there through everything. It was so easy and a pleasure knowing my daughter was in her care. I see her as a member of my family.
She sends me videos and photos of what they do in the day and it’s so lovely to keep them in the photo album for when I sometimes don’t get to see the special moments. Claire has helped with weaning and now potty training!
For special occasions Claire will make keepsakes such as hand and footprints for birthday and Christmas’s which I love. She is very creative and will always find things to engage my son to promote learning and development. Claire has been incredible and I am glad that on the odd occasion when we need a reliable babysitter Claire is there. Claire has been with us on holiday and even when we had our wedding where she cared for many children!

Claire looked after our two daughters from when they were 4 and 6 until they turned 11 and 13. Claire picked them up from school/ after school club on most days and looked after them in our home until we arrived back from work.
My girls adored Claire and Friday Funday was something they really looked forward to! Claire was also very happy to have the girls’ friends over for play dates which was a real bonus.
I thoroughly recommend Claire - she has been an absolute star and I wouldn’t have been able to do my job without her!

During the lockdown my sons school was only able to offer two days of childcare and my regular childminder was closed. I however work 4 days a week and needed cover the other two days.
Claire not only helped me when I desperately needed it, Claire provided free childcare when other childminders and nannies didn’t want to know. Caring for my son and even doing the weekly shop!
COVID-19 was a huge scare for me and my family and safety and cleanliness was Claire’s priority and I am glad I found her.

We've had Claire as a regular babysitter for 6 years. Claire relocated for work and still would travel to us to look after the kids. Claire entertained and made sure the kids had lots to do when we were out. I hope we find another babysitter just like Claire as she's been a god send!

As a babysitter Claire has always arrived on time. She will keep me updated on how the children are doing and would always arrive with activities for the children to do before we leave. I feel confident and I trust Claire, she does such a great job and the children, and we love her.
