"Naomi arrived promptly, asked all the right questions, and sent lots of reassuring updates while we were out. Our seven-month-old son was by all accounts blissfully happy, which is more than he usually is with us! Fed and changed, and Naomi accommodated his contact naps and vomiting over his clothes with a smile. Will definitely use again, thanks Naomi!"

"Absolutely fabulous time with Noaeem!! She immediately won over my toddler and arrived full of energy and playful ideas to keep him entertained during the day. Her confidence was so reassuring, and I loved how she communicated throughout her time with my son. She was safe and considerate, made sure to check for allergies and followed the general schedule and procedure for naptime and bedtime. I wish we could hire her full time, but this was just a quick visit to Edinburgh. I highly recommend her!!!"
Sierra, Edinburgh, EH3
"Azeb was wonderful taking care of our 5-month-old baby girl. She came early to make sure she had all the required information before we left. She brought her own books to play and sing with her. We are very happy and would absolutely recommend Azeb. Thanks!"

"Helen was fantastic. She looked after our 14 month old for a whole day during a wedding including put down. He had an excellent time. She gave us a call the night before to arrange. She brought extra toys with her. She was calm confident and warm. I’d definitely trust Helen to do a good job."

Tim, Oxford, OX2
"Shara was amazing, arriving promptly and immediately putting our 8 year old twins at ease, particularly our son whom tends to find it difficult be at ease with a new sitter and prefer a familiar person. She was kind enough, to keep us updated throughout the sitting and we returned home to find the kids down for the night without any fuss. "

"Jillian is a superstar! She collected our children from school and nursery as we were away all day and into the evening, she kept them entertained, fed, did their whole bedtime routine and they were so happy to have her as their babysitter. She’s warm, caring, conscientious and incredibly capable. We heartily recommend Jillian to anyone looking for the highest standard in childcare. "

"Aimee was great - very professional and my 2 year old son felt comfortable with her right away. Within minutes he was on her lap reading some toddler books she had brought along with her. I was working from home in another room and could hear every now and again how Aimee was expertly encouraging my son's drawing, counting etc. Aimee was also very diligent to understand and keep to my son's normal routines re food/naps etc. Highly recommend!"

"Sue is a fantastic regular babysitter for our two sons (aged 11 and 5). They look forward to her arriving and as soon as she comes through the door she chats and engages with the games and activities they’re playing really well. They tend to just fall into their little routine with her and forget all about us! She reads them lots of stories before bed and gives us updates while we’re out. We love having Sue to babysit for us! X"

"Amira is excellent. She babysat our 4 and 1yr olds 3 days in a row, both during the day and evening. She is calm, relaxed amid tantrums and very sweet. My 1 year old at the top of his stranger anxiety ran to her laughing his head off to be hugged when she walked in. My 4 yr old wants Amira to come for her birthday party. She normally wants to come everywhere with us but was perfectly happy to be left with Amira which is a huge compliment. We will surely ask her every time we are back in London."

"Elizabeth was communicative and prompt. We had a wedding to attend coming from abroad and it was so lovely to feel confident that our 5yo would be well taken care of while we were out. Highly recommend Elizabeth, she made us feel so welcomed and took such good care for the whole day sending us photo updates and highlights of the day. Thanks so much!!"

Donna, London, SW17
"This was our first time using a nanny through the app and it turned out to be such a wonderful experience. She kept our little one happy, engaged, and well cared for throughout her time with us. The biggest sign of how amazing she was — our 3-year-old daughter cried when she was leaving because she had become so attached to her. That alone says everything about the genuine care and connection she showed. Hope we get to work with her again!"

"Naomi is a fantastic caring babysitter who instantly bonded with my 6 and 2 year old and was able to settle my youngest when she awoke in the night, which isn't easy! I'm super grateful to her and so glad I've found such a wonderful person so I can finally enjoy some time away from home without being worried. Thanks again Naomi! "

"Simply amazing! Sylvia took on my booking late Sunday evening when I realised my almost 2year old is too sick to make it to nursery on Monday. She was on time and so gentle and warm - quickly bonded with my daughter and looked after her all day always being cheerful and patient. I worked upstairs in my office and at times didn’t even realise both were there. A true godsend! Thank you! "

She and James made a stunning railway track that I’ve even taken a photo of as it’s so beautiful. James was over the moon with Aysel’s visit and we can’t wait to see her again xx Thank you Aysel "

"Shazma was wonderful. She looked after my five year old son for three days while I was at a conference. She found lots of activities that he enjoyed and made sure to adapt to how he was feeling each day. He hasn’t had many babysitters before but felt super comfortable with Shazma right from the start. Shazma communicated really well and was flexible adapting to situations that arose. "

"This was a one-off booking as we were visiting the city, but soon after Elizabeth arrived, our baby was immediately comfortable with her calming and demeanor. After a few hours of play, she put our baby to sleep, and sent us updates so we were aware as to how things were going. After we came back, she briefed us on how things went. She was exactly what we were hoping for, and if we do come back in the future, we would love to have Elizabeth as our baby's babysitter again,"

"Janet was absolutely fantastic looking after 4 kids from 2 to 8, for 11 hours! She has a very easy and calm manner and the kids instantly warmed to her. She has excellent communication throughout and reassured us adults. She very sweetly came with activities for the children, including baking and an Easter egg hunt! She also has a nursing background/health visitor, and was very professional. 10/10 and could not have asked for more! Thank you Janet!"

"Eunice was incredible from before our booking even began. From being a great communicator to having such warm energy, I knew she was the right woman to care for my daughter as soon as she arrived. It was first time hiring a babysitter and she really set the standard. I didn’t have any anxiety leaving my daughter in her care and I’d highly recommend booking her.

"I have an 8 month old and 2.5 year old who I rarely leave with anyone apart from family. We felt so comfortable with Theresa straight away. Her experience with children really shows. She was absolutely fantastic with both baby and toddler. Very confident, caring, capable and naturally great with little children. I will definitely be booking Theresa again. My toddler cried when she left. That says it all :)) "

"Modupe came into our house and instantly put our family at ease. A total professional and obviously experienced with kids, she connected right away to our child and was a good fit for our home routine and philosophy. She was the picture of patience and ready to play, help with schoolwork, lunch and a park visit too. We look forward to having “Mo” return to sit for us again. Thank you! "

"Amal was very communicative leading up to, and during her babysitting. Her communication with us told us she knew what is usually important for a parent to have a sitter know (safety, food preferences, child’s schedule, etc.) and most importantly, the kids had so much fun with her! They had nothing but wonderful things to say about Amal and she was flexible with them, allowing more breaks or fun as she noticed their moods fluctuate. We felt completely comfortable going to our concert and knowing our kids were being well cared for!"
Makinna, Wembley, HA9
"We had Jana for three days in a row and my kids loved her. She is a very kind, lovely, professional person. She has lots of activities and books and crafting material for the kids. It is not usual that I can leave my both kids with peace of mind but Jana made it possible. I was hearing their laugh and giggling all the times when they were with Jana. It was like an interactive learning session. Thank you, Jana! "

"Vicky was absolutely fantastic. I would book her again in a heartbeat and I recommend her unreservedly. Vicky was punctual and polite and my son (who has some send issues thought she was great) In fact, within about five minutes of stepping through the door she had won my son over and he couldn’t wait for me to leave the house!! He clearly had a brilliant day and Vicky was great at sending me photos and videos. My son isn’t always the most affectionate and he gave Vicky a massive unprompted cuddle when she was leaving. Well done Vicky and thank you so, so much Xxxxxxx"

"Natasha was absolutely amazing with both of our kids. From the moment she arrived, she knew exactly how to communicate with them and made them feel comfortable straight away. She played games with them, kept them entertained, and even baked a delicious cake together, which they loved! She is warm, kind, and very natural with children. Our kids really took to her and had a wonderful time. We would definitely use Natasha again and would happily recommend her to other families."

Thank you, Fouzia, for this incredible experience with Sitters in London! "

"Azeb was lovely! We we’re visiting for the weekend and staying in a hotel, but despite my 1 and 2 year old being out of their normal home/routine, Azeb immediately caught their attention with a book, toys and some songs she brought with her. They loved it! You can tell she is a very kind and experienced childminder and I will absolutely use her again when we’re in town. "

"Abbey was absolutely fantastic. She put me at my ease from the moment I booked, offering to introduce herself over the phone if I wanted when I admitted I was nervous because I’d never left the children with someone I hadn’t met before. She got years of teaching experience and it really shines through - she merrily and patiently sat making balloon model hats with our son on a Tuesday evening and we felt totally comfortable leaving them with her. We’ll be booking her again, and we can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you Abbey!"

She was attentive, gentle, and completely comfortable handling feedings, diaper changes, and soothing him when he was fussy. As first-time parents, it meant so much to feel totally at ease leaving our little boy in her care. We’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful babysitter."

"Elsie was wonderful today being another pair of hands for me with my young children, they are both autistic and Elsie took the time to connect with them both and just got stuck in straight away. My daughter is particularly choosy about people so I was pleasantly surprised that she allowed Elsie to do things for her and loved playing with her. Elsie was professional, trustworthy and easy to have around. Would definitely book in again "
Laura, Belper, DE56

"We love Abbi so much. She is the babysitter who our 5 year old gets excited to see, asks about her and when he'll see her next! From day one she had his trust, and ours, and she humours him with all his games and stuff he talks about. When we had our youngest and felt ready to start leaving her for the evening, Abbi put us so at ease, and we never once doubted leaving her in Abbi's care ❤️"

"This is the second time Natalie has looked after our children. Although our children are 9 and 11 and don’t need ‘entertaining’ as such, she made sure they were happy and safe whilst I was at work and my husband was at college. Knowing that they were okay made it so much easier for both me and my husband. Thanks Natalie 🥰"

"This was our first experience of using sitters, so we were naturally a little nervous. Sian came and settled with our 6 month old almost immediately. Friendly and calm. Our daughter is teething and a little difficult to put down for a nap unless I'm doing it, but Sian took it in her stride and got her to settle for 2 naps throughout the day. A good first experience. Well definitely use Sitters again. "
Fay, London, N9
"This was my first time using a sitter through the service as any parent I was very hesitate, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Taslima. She was absolutely great with my little 3.5-year-old boy — kind, patient, and very attentive. She made me feel comfortable and reassured from the start, and everything went smoothly. I really appreciated her professionalism and care, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!"
Tina, Chadwell Heath, RM6
"Eva is wonderful! She worked miricles with my little one who’s very sensitive about attachment atm (15 months). Soon tears were replaced by the sounds of laughter and reading.

They played well together and went to the park - I really appreciated the pictures shared while doing so! And while not expected, her help around the house was much appreciated, leaving all toys and kitchen tidy after use !!! Very respectful and helpful, it was like having my mum around and Santi enjoyed every minute !
