Mandy is simply brilliant. I had a 9 month old girl and she helped me as an ad hoc nanny for almost a year. She helped us get our daughter to sleep at night and into a great routine. We didn't know we didn't know what we were doing until Mandy came in and wowed us with her baby knowledge. She knows all the different developmental stages off the top of her head and helped us tackle each individual problem we faced. Our daughter loved spending time with her and was initially very clingy and Mandy made the transition into care for her so easy. I can't recommend her enough.

Thankyou so much very kind of you xx
Mandy was absolutely amazing. A joy to work with and our boys loved being looked after by her.
We went away for a 28hr period where we left Mandy to look after our 10 month old and 3 and half year old sons. She had to take on the role of myself and my husband, collecting my son from nursery, feeding, bathing and putting the boys to bed, and look after them and entertain them.
We returned (2pm the following day), to find the house straight (we have a very small house so the toys can take over), the boys had been out to the park and she had even had time to make cakes with our eldest while the youngest slept.
Mandy was confidant, easy to give routine information to, and very prompt arriving.
She made our trip away a total success.
Thank you
