"This was my very first experience with a babysitter, and I’ll admit I was quite anxious and skeptical at first. But Nadica was absolutely wonderful from the moment she arrived. She was so sweet, reassuring, and had such a lovely presence that my anxiety quickly disappeared. While she was with my 5-month-old daughter Tess, I was able to go out for my appointments and the gym with complete peace of mind. Tess was doing really well when I came back she had been fed, took a nap, and enjoyed some playtime. I couldn’t be more satisfied and happy with the care Nadica provided. I would absolutely recommend her to other families and truly hope our paths cross again. She’s just amazing!"

"Sian was a huge hit with my boys 13 & 10 - a huge achievement given they protest that they are far too old to need a babysitter! The boys had a giant Nerf war & built a fort - awesome!! Best of all - no trace of the fun had, it was all tidied away. Thank you x"

"Eileen babysat my 16-month daughter twice and was excellent with her. My daughter is a bit sensitive and doesn’t like being left with anyone other than myself and her daddy. She cried a lot to start with but Eileen remained calm, warm and comforting and managed to sooth her pretty quickly especially the second time when she stopped crying while I was still at home getting ready to leave which was unbelievable! Eileen took her to the park both times and told me in detail what she ate, her nappy change etc. When I came back my daughter was in a good mood so she obviously had a great time. I was very happy leaving her with Eileen and felt she was in good hands and will definitely be asking Eileen to babysit on many occasions in the future!"
Irina, London, NW6
"Mamoona was great with our children and really put our mind at rest. She got stuck in straight away playing games with the kids. We’ll definitely use Mamoona again!"
Lorraine, Romford, RM3
"My 3 1/2 year old was a bit shy when Vanessa arrived, but she immediately won him over. He was looking for her in the morning wanting to tell her a story about a bug they were discussing. Would absolutely have her back again!!"
Matthew, Surrey, KT13
"Prompt, courteous and friendly - everything you could want in a sitter. Thanks very much!"

"Our youngest was very upset at the idea of us leaving and Gina handled him brilliantly. Despite his insistence that he would go to bed before she arrived, he was intrigued enough by her interaction with his older brother to come downstairs and talk to her. Although being very upset when we left, she let us know that he was completely fine 2 mins later and kept us updated on both of them through the evening. "
Molly, London, SW19
"Prompt and baby slept through so obviously a magic angel, thank you!!!"
Naomi, Hertfordshire, SG5
"Sue is absolutely wonderful! She took the time to really get to know my three children and made them feel completely comfortable from the start. She plays fun games with them and even remembers little details about their lives and school from previous visits, which makes settling in so much easier. It gives me such peace of mind knowing they’re happy and well cared for when they’re with her. Highly recommend Sue to any family looking for a kind, attentive, and reliable babysitter!"
Lilly, Orpington, BR6
"This was the first time we were leaving our girls with a sitter. Verena immediately put our minds at ease with her easy but professional manner. She struck up a connection with my older daughter straightaway (my younger one was already in bed) and we were no longer needed! We got a message once the girls were in bed and could relax and enjoy our evening with no worries. Thank you so much! "
Reetika, Kent, ME5
"Julie was an excellent sitter, she was the first sitter Troy has had since he’s only 3 months old and he seemed so happy when we returned - he obviously loved spending time with Julie! I would absolutely use Julie again and recommend her as a sitter. Thanks so much Julie for being amazing! "
Andra, Liverpool, L3
"Sally arrived on time and quickly charmed our nervous little boy. This was the first time in two years that we left him with a sitter and at nearly 6 years old he was unsure about the whole thing. The evening was a success! We will definitely be booking Sally again. "
Renee, Shipston-on-stour, CV36
"Olivia made our (usually shy) children feel at ease straight away and had brought a painting activity with her which they loved. She was kind and caring. And from a parent’s perspective, what a privilege to have a qualified, practicing teacher looking after our kids, thank you so much Olivia!"
Anna, Birmingham, B13
"To come home to happy boys who have had a lovely time was really nice, but so was the washing brought out of the washing machine neat and folded. Ashley does more than babysit, she engages, plays and helps, and this conscientiousness is worth every penny. Thanks Ashley!"

"Annetta was excellent! She came at very short notice following someone else pulling out late. Settled in very quickly and both children said how much fun they had when she left. Annetta is very professional, with a lovely manner around the children and will be our go to whenever we need a babysitter. "

Vicky, West Yorkshire, HX6

"It was a pleasure to meet Hayley, she was lovely to deal with, very experienced and dived straight in. My 17 months old baby had a wonderful time with her (full of smiles by the end of it!) This was my first experience using sitters.co.uk and will definitely be utilising it again. Was very comforting that she was able to just get on with it, with little guidance and easy to have in the house while I was working from home. "

"Stefany was so wonderful with my two children aged 6 and 9. She was (according to the children) ‘super fun’ and they played many games in the 3 hours I was out. It was a last minute booking and Stefany was quick to respond and made me feel at ease. Highly recommend 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟"

She arrived early, had great communication before and throughout, and arrived with a big bag of toys to immediately connect and relax our baby. She instantly put us at ease and we knew our baby was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Jenny! Thanks again 😊"
Colette, Salisbury, SP4
"Absolutely outstanding, I haven’t used this service for a while and I’m so impressed. Emma was amazing, arrived early equipped with games for the boys. Hours of fun and sleeping peacefully when I returned. At breakfast table the boys couldn’t stop talking about how much fun they had and they want Emma to return. Thank you so much, I hope to use your services again, as do the boys x"

"We had such a wonderful experience with Megs. She was patient, caring, and very attentive to our baby’s needs. Even when our little one was a bit cranky, she handled it calmly—feeding her, soothing her, and getting her to sleep. She also took the time to clean bottles and keep things tidy, which was a huge help. We felt completely comfortable leaving our baby in her care and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a reliable and thoughtful babysitter. "

"Dagmara was wonderful! My kids connected with her right away. She looked after them for three days during some really awful weather, and still managed to make the most of it—taking them to the park when possible and keeping them entertained with all sorts of games at home. I would definitely recommend her!"
Sandra, London, W6

"Penny came to look after our 3-year old. She was absolutely brilliant! Our daughter had the very best day! She played with our daughter all day and showed infinite patience with requests to read many, many books. She also helped her learn how to use the toilet and I could hear her not just playing with her but also gently teaching her too. Penny is amazingly professional and I felt that my daughter was in the safest and kindest of hands. We really hope that she will come back and look after our daughter again!"
Deborah, London, NW4

"Annisa was absolutely fantastic! She took such great care of the kids and carried out her role with professionalism and warmth. When she left, my children immediately said they want Annisa every day and no one else, that says it all! We’d definitely have her back anytime. I’m so grateful for her support and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a reliable, caring, and wonderful babysitter. "
Oyindamola, London, SW16
"Candice arrived perfectly on time, great communication before. This was our first experience using a sitter and was in a hotel away from home. Candice was very familiar with sitting and also winning children’s trust! My daughter got a lot out of her time without me and was well entertained. Would highly recommend."

She’s reliable, easy to communicate with, and makes the whole process stress-free. We’re grateful to have found her and would definitely recommend her to other families."
Yan, Orpington, BR6

"Gabriela was amazing with our babies at a wedding. We shared her as a sitter with friends so she had a 6 month old, a 9 month old and 4 parents to deal with in a house that had lots of the wedding party coming in and out all night - she put us all at ease, was really attentive, flexible and looked after our boys with so much care and warmth. Couldn’t recommend Gabriela more highly!! "

"My experience with Angelica was over my expectations, she is a great lovely and caring person. She was fantastic with my two-and-a-half-year-old daughter, she was very sweet and patient, and quickly managed to connect with her. She also had the thoughtfulness to bring along two games especially to entertain and stimulate her, which I really appreciated. My little one had such a great time, and I felt completely at ease seeing her so happy. Highly recommended"

"Our little one was settled and happy with Jennifer. We love her smiley and light demeanour that at the same time has the professional care to make sure our daughter has her needs met and more! Jennifer played hide and seek, cooked, read and has the lovely nanny non judgmental attitude when faced with plenty of ipad time our autistic daughter uses for self soothing. Thank you Jennifer! We are indeed very lucky to have you ❤️. "
Carolina, Gloucestershire, GL10
"I booked Julie to look after my son at a wedding and she was so lovely. From the moment Julie arrived my son was comfortable with her. I was concerned that he wouldn't go to bed at an appropriate time because there was too much going on downstairs in the hotel but I had no need to worry at all because Julie had it all under control. If I lived here Julie would 100% be my go to babysitter! Thank you Julie!"
Caroline, Gosport, PO12

"Helene took care of our 6 year old in our hotel cottage one evening during our holiday travels. She is the quintessential Mary Poppins! So calm, engaging, and in tune with our little one. Helene arrived with stickers in hand ready to engage our son and soothe his initial nervousness. We felt totally comfortable with Helene, our son loved her, and we highly recommend her to others! "
Jenny, Chippenham, SN14

"Sue was absolutely wonderful with my two children (ages 6 and 9). She called shortly after my booking to gather all the necessary details, which immediately put me at ease. The children had a fantastic time playing with her and were settled in bed right on schedule. Throughout the evening, Sue kept me updated and made the whole experience stress-free. I’ve already booked her again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!"
19/08/2025
"Wow! Gabriela was the absolute best. From the minute she walked in, she won all of our hearts. She is so patient, so gentle, so fun, the absolute BEST. My boys have never had a sitter before so I was so nervous but she made me and my boys feel so at ease by the way she made my boys comfortable. My 13 year old and 9 year old boys were so happy with Gabriela! I highly recommend her! They keep asking about her. I am so thankful for Gabriela! "

"We are so very grateful for Jenny! It was our first time using a sitter, she made us feel so at ease, such a warm and calm nature. The amount of thought she put into preparing for tonight is absolutely amazing. She brought toys and stories based on our son's favourite things and left him a note with a special treat for when he wakes in the morning! Jenny is very understanding of our son's needs. She also sent us updates once our son was in bed. Absolutely will be using Jenny again! Highly recommended "

"Andrea was wonderful with my two boys aged 1 and 3. I booked Andrea to help me out with my 3 children under 4 for the day so I focussed on my newborn and Andrea looked after the boys. All I could hear all day was laughter and playing. The boys adored her and she came very prepared with lots of fun toys and games. From the moment she arrived they no longer had any interest in me and were very happy with her all day long whilst I bumbled about the house. Her communication with them was wonderful and she had a brilliant way of defusing squabbles between the two boys. Her experience with children is very evident . Will definitely book Andrea again! "
Harriet, Wantage, OX12
"We were very nervous to leave our 9 month old with Hannah at our hotel while we attended a wedding. But she was so lovely with our son from the moment she arrived and she sent regular updates and photos to keep us in the loop. She called the day before which was reassuring and followed all our instructions to a T. She also gave a written handover of everything to us at the end which was very helpful.Thank you Hannah for taking such good care of our baby!"
Hilary, South Cerney, GL7
"Adele was excellent taking care of our girls, (7 months and 3 years) as a back up childcare day. Her calm demeanour and kind attitude throughout the day won the girls over and gave us complete peace of mind. She played with the girls, puzzles, tea, dolls, stickers, you name it… she also managed all meals and even helped prepare some food that we will freeze and are super grateful for! Thank you Adele!"

"Samantha was totally brilliant from start to finish and my girls - a one year old and three year old - immediately felt comfortable with her. Samantha took the girls to the playground and they had a fab time. They were all smiles when they got home and told me what a fun time they’d had. Samantha was great at organising the girls and called me to reassure me that all was well. Samantha is very experienced, professional and friendly and clearly knows what she is doing with children. I would have no hesitation about recommending her or booking her again. "
FELICITY, Folkestone, CT19
"Vilma came early to learn the ‘lay of the land’ and to know all exits as well as to get to know our daughter a bit before we left; it was her first time sitting for her. She was wonderful with our four-year-old who had a great time doing puzzles with her and playing! Vilma is a lovely person with a responsible persona and a great heart; we would welcome her again any time!"
Danielle, Somerset, BA10

"Anna was awesome! 🤩 Within minutes she’d engaged with our baby and toddler (not always an easy feat) and had gained their trust and smiles. She played with them, created games, cared about their welfare (suggested sun cream), helped feed them throughout the day. We felt very confident in leaving our children with her and look forward to seeing Anna again soon!"
12/08/2025
"Sam was fantastic. Asked wonderful questions, listened carefully to us and to my son, Brax who has complex care needs. He loved spending time with Sam and we felt so comfortable as a result. Sam is also a lovely person and I look forward to working with her again"

"Janine was absolutely fantastic. We hired Janine to look after our 5 month old on the day of our wedding at the venue, and I am struggling to put in words how appreciative I was of her. Our little one has been struggling a bit with unknown faces (crying when not with mum/dad) and from the moment she arrived he was all smiles and giggles! She stayed at the venue and brought him over for pictures, took him for many walks around the beautiful grounds. We had a video call a couple of weeks before the event to go over babys routine and she had actually done a wedding previously! She then checked in with us again the day or so before the event which just gave us more confidence for the day. She has since sent some beautiful photos of her time with Trey on the grounds and had even kept a schedule of his sleep/nappies/food from the day before handing him back over to us. I cannot recommend Janine enough, she made us feel at ease on one of the biggest days of our life. Thank you so much Janine!! "

Would highly recommend and will definitely be booking Wendy again when we’re down in Wiltshire/somerset again. "
Hattie, Warminster, BA12

"In the words of our three year old Loraine was the best babysitter because she played with me and came outside with me and let me have a banana! Loraine was fab from start to finish - taking a very last minute booking for us and immediately putting our little one at ease. She had loads of fun and didn’t want Loraine to go home! Would certainly recommend to others and we look forward to having Loraine sit for us again. "
Amy, West Sussex, RH15
"Clare was warm and friendly from the outset, immediately putting both us and our son at ease. She arrived right on time and kept in touch beforehand, which we really appreciated. Our son absolutely loved spending time with her and is already looking forward to her next visit. She engaged with him beautifully, and we felt completely confident leaving him in her capable hands. We’d happily recommend Clare to other families. "

"It was Joanne's first time babysitting for us but we were instantly put at our ease the minute she arrived. She was so calm and confident and immediately interacted with both children. My daughter woke up while we were out but Joanne sat with her and comforted her until she fell back to sleep. We were able to enjoy our evening knowing that our children were in the best hands. Thanks so much Joanne 😊"
Danielle, Somerset, TA21

"Emma was the 1st person we met. I was quite nervous beforehand as I have never had a baby sitter before but I didn’t need to be. Emma was fantastic we had her for two days running and my 3 children loved having her look after them. My son says he wants to have Emma next time. Very calm, reassuring and very kind. Emma gave my youngest child a lot of one to one which she really enjoyed. Would definitely recommend and book to have Emma again! "

"It was our first time using a babysitter for our 5 and 3 year old boys. Rebecca put us at ease straight away, providing updates on how things were going and leaving us very comfortable and able to enjoy a night out. We would definitely recommend Rebecca and will hopefully be able to have her come to babysit again for us in the future."
Stephen, Basingstoke, RG24

"Katie is fantastic, we have always been hesitant with babysitters and with the school holidays we had no other choice than to get help and I’m so glad we did. Katie’s approach with the kids was so well received, by the end of the first day, they didn’t want her to go! So glad we found Katie, she is so calm and the kids absolutely love her. Will continue to use her over the summer holidays and all the half term breaks too. "
Gina, London, SE12

"Coming from Spain, we were a bit reluctant about this babysitting service because in our country is not something common, but our one year and a half daughter fell instantly in love with Veronica. She took care of her for two days, played with her, feed her and put her to sleep. We won't hesitate in counting on her the next time we come to England. Thanks, Veronica!"

"Jo helped us at very short notice with our two daughters (7mths and 3 years) for a full day when we needed backup care. She was great and our eldest adopted her within 30mins allowing me to get on a call and my husband to work. She took everything in her stride and helped with food, tidying up and all! Thank you fairy Jo!"

"Angelica, was genuinely, lovely! It was my first time hiring a babysitter and leaving my child in the care of a stranger. I was nervous about that. However, it immediately became apparent that there was nothing to worry about. My 6 year old son son took to her immediately! She exuded warmth and thoughtfulness from the get go. My son loved her. She is highly recommended!"

"Tonia was absolutely lovely and warm from the moment she arrived. She was punctual, proactive, and immediately took charge with confidence and care. She asked all the right questions, quickly got on top of the kids’ schedule, and put together an activity-filled day that kept them happy and engaged. Tonia also prepared a healthy, filling lunch, which was a great bonus. The children warmed to her straight away, and we felt completely at ease with her in charge. Highly recommended!"

"Julia is an absolutely wonderful babysitter, I can't recommend her highly enough. Chatty, friendly and engaging with our children (8,10,13) she was also flexible when I came home slightly later than expected. Julia is very highly qualified along with having exceptional experience with ND families. Feedback from our kids says it all - 'she is AMAZING', 'she is SO nice when is she coming back?'. Thank you so much too for your 'pottering' - an incredible surprise. We'd book Julia again with zero hesitation."
Claire, Edinburgh, EH10
"Elise was an absolute delight! I had complete peace of mind leaving my 2-year-old son with her, no easy feat considering he's going through a very clingy phase and doesn’t like being apart from his mom. Elise handled it all with such grace, patience, and professionalism. She instantly made him feel safe and cared for, which allowed me to step away without worry. I can’t recommend her enough!"

"Sue was absolutely wonderful with my 2-year-old son. She showed up right on time and immediately made him feel at ease. Even when he had a few moments of crying after I left, she handled it like a total pro, calm, kind, and reassuring. It was clear she knew exactly what she was doing. I felt completely confident leaving him in her care, and I’d absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!"

"It was a lovely experience for all of us having Debs sitting for our two children. She called in advance to find out a bit about the children and then (having checked it was ok) arrived 15 mins early and even brought some lovely presents for them! Our children are not always the easiest, but Debs managed the demands and separation anxiety of one and engaged with the passivity of the other calmly and in a friendly manner.

"Honestly Caroline has become a firm favourite with my 10 month old and it is so lovely to see! She’s waving me out the door, more than happy to be sat playing away with Caroline. Makes me feel incredibly comfortable and reassured leaving my daughter in Caroline’s capable hands. Would highly recommend as she clearly just has a way with children."

"Gemma was fantastic with both of my boys that are non-verbal. She communicated with me a lot and sent me some lovely pictures she got of my babies. She played with them water play and playing catch with anything my son decided to use as a ball. Made sure dinner was done on time and stuck to their routine. Absolutely amazing with my boys and she made me feel at ease how she was in contact before asking everything she needs to know for them. Will definitely use Gemma again to look after my boys. Thankyou Gemma. "

She handled feeding, bathing and putting her to bed, and looked after her overnight. She's got a great manner with children and by the end of it all felt like part of the family. Would strongly recommend and would definitely use again."

"When Tessa arrived, she immediately engaged with my 5 year old son asking him questions about his stuff and getting him to talk to her so he would feel comfortable. It was a longer sitting, so she prepared his dinner and afterwards played several games and read a book until it was time for bed. They hit it off so well, he asked if she would stay the night? He told us the next morning how much fun they had and wanted to know when she'd return. Would recommend Tessa."
Christopher, Kent, TN4
"Soraya arrived promptly at our hotel room to look after our son for the evening. There was excellent communication beforehand. She was very friendly and approachable; my son very much enjoyed playing with her from the start and we felt comfortable and confident with Soraya. Soraya carried out our son's evening routine as requested (dinner, bath, story etc) and got him to sleep. She gave an update as the evening progressed as well as at the end of the session. The following day our son kept asking where Soraya was and what she was getting up to! Thank-you for looking after our son so well."

We kept in touch during the day and she shared photos and video He had a great time with her, exceeding our expectations. We would happily recommend her to anyone in need of caregiving."
