Sophie has taken care of my children for the past year. This has been an after school arrangement three days a week. My children are 10 and 14 years old.

Sophie is extremely hardworking and reliable and she has never been late for work. She communicates really well but also takes the initiative and makes decisions as required. Sophie collects my daughter from school, prepares meals and packed lunches, drives the children to social activities and after school clubs, has helped with homework and ensures my daughter is ready for bed when I get in from work.

Sophie has been able to help me when I have had calls from school for help when my daughter was poorly. She has also helped me around the house and with ironing when there is more time during the school holidays.

Sophie is moving on to new opportunities and hours that are longer (which I cannot provide). I wish her all the very best for the future and would highly recommend her if you are looking for childcare or babysitting in the future.
