We booked Donna to look after our two year old when we came to Perth for a family wedding, it was for a long time, pretty much 1pm till 1am. We had a couple of phone calls and a video call in advance so our daughter could see her, she absolutely set our minds at rest, I was a bit nervous leaving our toddler with a stranger but Donna couldn’t have been more understanding, she’s so lovely and clearly very experienced. On the day she brought toys and books, she had such a lovely way with our little girl. They went to the park to play and she text us several photos of them having fun throughout the day. Would highly recommend, she’s an absolute pro!!

We recently asked Donna to help us out with caring for 3 children aged 4 years, 14 months and 6 months while attending a wedding. Not the easiest age combination but Donna coped brilliantly. The 4 year old said he had a lovely day with her. We felt very positive about all aspects of our experience with Donna and would happily use her again.

I couldn't recommend Donna more highly, she babysat for us slightly last minute and was brilliant. She popped round to meet the kids beforehand and put us all at ease. Which meant on the night we had no worries about her putting our five year old to bed and neither did he. Both of our children were very happy to have Donna and we will definitely be using her again. She is brilliant!

We were visiting Perth for a wedding and were in dire need of a nanny to take care of our 4 month old for the day and evening. Donna was absolutely brilliant! Prior to our visit we had two video calls to get to know her which was very helpful and made us feel perfectly safe. She was very kind and took great care of our son. She even brought plenty of toys to keep him entertained. Would not hesitate the tiniest bit to recommend her.

Donna has babysat for my 3 month old twins on numerous occasions and has been brilliant each time. She sings and talks to them, takes them out for walks and is very calm with them. She is also a lovely, kind person with lots of relevant experience and she is exactly what my husband and I were looking for. You don’t need to look any further; l highly recommend Donna.
