I am so pleased to have Debbie in my life! She has honestly been such a help! Not only has Debbie been an ad-hoc babysitter and a Nanny for my family, she's also helped me declutter my children's toys, create routines and systems within our lives that work, and has helped me to make the entire household run much smoother! She is so personable and easy to chat to. She fitted right into the family from the moment she arrived and I honestly look forward to her coming on a Monday! In all the stress, she is a little bit of calm! Thank you Debbie! xx

We are so grateful to have found Debbie! She has been an absolute gem in taking care of our daughter since she was 3 months old, and has also been incredibly helpful with household tasks such as including ironing.
As a nanny, she is kind, patient, and attentive. Our daughter adores her, and we feel completely at ease knowing they are in such loving and capable hands. She engages with our little one through creative activities, ensuring both fun and educational experiences every time.
On top of her wonderful childcare skills, Debbie is meticulous when it comes to ironing. Our clothes are always neatly pressed, and she takes great care with delicate fabrics. Her attention to detail and efficiency have been a huge help. We could not recommend her enough!

Thank you so much for such a lovely review and welcoming me into your family back in 2022 - looking after your daughter at just 3 months was an absolute privilege - I love the time we spend together and look forward to the future being part of her growing up 😊
Debbie has Been looking after my 3 children for over 2 years, 3 days a week from 8:45 to 5pm and I can honestly say she has been nothing but a blessing. She came on when my youngest was just over one and my middle child was just about to start reception and with three kids under 10 and two full time working Perants life can be pretty hectic. I can honestly say she is not only caring and patient but is one of the most organised and punctual
people I know always going above and beyond. It’s clear she absolutely loves her job and takes pride in everything she does. I’m sure all Perants can agree bringing someone into your home can be a challenge but in my times of chaos Debbie always made me feel at ease and comfortable. She not only took care of the children who adore her (managing school runs, club runs, daily activities, organizing outings, extra baby sitting etc) she also helped me with organising the house to make it run more smoothly, ironing laundry, running errands and more. She’s so great I considered one more pregnancy just to keep her on. Our time together has come to an end and she will be truly missed but always considered part of our family journey.

You were one of my first families and from day one you welcomed me into your home - I knew then I had made the right decision to change my career path and become a Nanny - I have loved looking after the children and glad I have been able to help you with household duties - will always keep in touch
Thank you Josie x
Debbie looked after my 3 children for 2 years and I can’t recommend her more highly. She is 100% reliable and trustworthy, loves doing creative activities with the children and taking them on fun trips. She felt like one of the family and all my children loved her.

Thank you Rosie - I loved looking after the children and we did have some fun days out - really miss them but thankful we are still in touch and look forward to looking after them very soon x
So lucky to have found Debbie for my two boys. A naturally nurturing lady, understands and respects the individual needs of each child and just the same with the individual needs of each parent. My boys love her and having Debbie take care of the boys has meant my husband and I have had the chance to have rare times away with friends and a date here and there. Thank you Debbie for fitting us into your busy life xx

We feel so lucky to have found Debbie for ad hoc help with our daughter. She has stepped in and within 10 minutes my daughter adored her and they were playing blissfully and i could walk away. She is a complete natural with children, and just instinctively knows what to do and how to distract them. We cant thank her enough for helping me manage a toddler whilst pregnant and giving me some rest bite. Thank you Debbie!

Apologies I have just realised I didn’t reply to your review ……

I contacted Debbie in regards to babysitting as we have no local family support and had never sourced private help before. She visited us in her own time to meet both myself, partner and six year old son to introduce herself and put us at ease. She was great with Jack from the offset and he immediately took to her. He absolutely loves spending time with her and always ask when she is coming back :). Debbie is punctual, reliable and a genuine lovely lady, who we trust to take care of our boy. I’m so happy we found her and look forward to seeing her again! Thank you Debbie 💕 XxX
