Olivia was absolutely amazing! My daughter was at ease with her straight away & happily let us go out for dinner with no complaints. She was very prompt with arriving as well as responding really quickly to any messages prior to babysitting. Will definitely be using Olivia again! Thank you :)

Olivia babysat for my two young boys when we attended a wedding at nearby Silchester Farm. We're not local to the area and had never left them with a babysitter before, so I was a little apprehensive, but Olivia was responsive in the run up to the event and very punctual and friendly on the day. Would definitely use her again if we were in the area and highly recommend.

Olivia is always on time and very dedicated to the care of our disabled son, she is very experienced at dealing with children like our son and is also very good with our other children who do not have any disabilities. I would never hesitate to recommend Olivia as a carer/babysitter as she is pleasure to be around, very trustworthy and incredibly reliable.

Would definitely recommend her!

Olivia has babysat for us a few times and she’s very reliable, had great credentials, is friendly and great with children. Finding someone to trust your child with isn’t easy but Olivia makes it easy!

Olivia babysat for our 2 year old so my husband and I could go out for the first time in ages. She agreed to meet me before so she could meet my son and we could meet her, had her DBS check and talked through her experience and was able to provide reliable references. Finding someone I trusted was so important and Olivia is very trustworthy. Will definitely be asking her to help us again.

Olivia was an incredibly helpful last minute babysitter for our 1 year old. She was very responsive, flexible, and professional. Couldn't ask for anything more!

Thank you so much, was my pleasure.
We've been really pleased with Olivia babysitting our 6 year-old boy. She's lovely - trustworthy, calm, professional, punctual, and good with communicating about availability, as well as giving updates while we're out. I highly recommend Olivia!
