Max gets along really well with the kids and they absolutely love having him as a sitter. They think he is very funny and lots of fun. Max is very reliable, punctual, flexible and professional. I would highly recommend him.

Max has been our nanny for almost three years and we cant recommend him enough. He is super reliable and we trust him to cover whatever the kids need….. school, activities, health appointments etc. Most importantly the kids have fun with him.

Max has been a regular babysitter for my two sons aged 13 and 10 for a few years. They both really enjoy it when he looks after them. He has flexed his activities over time to ensure that they have remained fun and interesting as they have grown older.
We left them overnight with Max last weekend for the first time and he was absolutely brilliant. We had every confidence that the boys would be safe, well looked after and have a lot fun. My youngest just said 5 stars best babysitter in the world!!

Max has been amazing in helping with both my children. He has helped my autistic son engage with him after a really difficult year and he’s always happy to play whatever crazy barbie adventure my daughter is imagining. He is communicative, reliable, flexible and most importantly kind and both my kids adore him!

Max does ad hoc nannying and babysitting and is always great. Our children enjoy him coming over and he’s always super reliable.

Max has looked after our little boy for half a day per week, starting when he was 8 months old (he is now 13 months). Even through some very clingy and teethy spells, our LO has always been happy to see Max at the door and they've had a lovely time together! Max has always made sure he was well fed, clean and rested.

Max has babysat for my 4 kids a few times now and has also done an overnight stay which went brilliantly! My kids absolutely love Max and have requested we go away again so he can come back. I felt very comfortable leaving the kids with him knowing they’d be well looked after. My kids ages are twin boys age 10, 8yr old boy & 5yr old girl.

Max collects my two daughters from school twice a week and looks after them while I work, including preparing their dinner. The first word they both said to describe him is FUN! Max plays football with them and does some great experimental art and craft activities. He achieved the unimaginable when he made some slime that they liked playing with. Previously they had declared they would never touch slime!! Max is very reliable and honest and his communication is excellent. We are all very happy to have found him!

Max has been babysitting for us for a few years now and our 11 year and 8 year old love him. He is always on time, keeps the children entertained and we can go out knowing they have fun, are safe and well cared for. Looking forward to using his services again once things get back to normal.
Asked the children what they think and they said ‘He even likes to watch Frozen!’ ‘He always makes things fun’ and ‘he is 100% great’

Thanks for your kind words Frankie. I always looking forward to helping you guys!
Max was very flexible in coming to help look after my daughters who are 4.5yrs and 1.5yrs. He bonded with both of them quickly and was very helpful with home schooling. He fitted in quickly and had planned lots of fun activities for them. They absolutely loved him and asked when he could come again. I would definitely recommend him. Thank you Max!

My daughter went to the nursery/preschool that Max works at. She is now 9 years old and I have found him again through this site. My daughter absolutely loves him! When we received a message from Max her eyes lit up. She remembers how attentive, fun and friendly he is. An absolute star and a pleasure to know. He always fully reported my daughter's day at the nursery and he helped her out greatly with her confidence.

Max looked after our daughter (6) and son (4) for ~6 weeks when they returned to school and nursery after lockdown.
Max was friendly and flexible from the start, he made such an effort with the children including doing crafts and taking them on day trips. He was reliable and prevented any childcare worries for us.
The kids loved having him around and we were really pleased too, we’d definitely recommend him.

Our regular babysitter was on holidays and we needed to find someone who can handle our 2 boys and little girl. Max was happy to have a meet and greet session at our place before the babysitting day. We got to know him and the kids could also see who would be looking after them.
Max won the boys' respect in that he knew how to play their PS4 games and our little girl, who is always hard to please, accepted him as her babysitter and still remembers him now.
Max listened to what we needed - playtime, when to feed them, what snacks they are allowed, when to get them to bed. All went exactly as expected and the place was kept tidy on our return. Kids were in bed and it was a lovely peaceful evening.

We used Max for a couple of years, he always turned up to every session and on time. He was great with my little girl and boy playing continuously with them and putting them to bed on time. Max is super trustworthy we had to stop using him as we needed to employ an Au Pair. The kids were asking about Max the other day so would love to get him round to ours to do a catch up baby sitting session.

I know Max as he was the nursery room manager where my daughter went. He is undoubtably the best nursery staff I have come across as he paid great attention to any feedback I had and made sure he brought any concerns to closure. He is full of ideas, energy and enthusiasm and keeps children engaged and entertained very well. He is always forthcoming to offer any help outside the nursery hours and very prompt in providing any updates that may affect you. I would highly recommend his services.

We’ve known Max for many years as he works at the nursery my daughter went to and now my son. He has a wonderful energy with kids of all ages and is one of the most engaging people I’ve come across. Always with a smile, the kids are always excited to see him and delight in his jokes as well as the activities he plans for them. He’s always great at communicating and following up, he’s reliable and extremely helpful when we most need help. Couldn’t recommend him enough!

Max has been great with our 2.5 year old son getting him out and about and giving him a variety of fun activities under his own steam. Our son felt secure and happy with him immediately and the two of them have a good laugh together!

Thanks liz. It was a pleasure looking after your little one! He was amazing and thanks for the freedom you let me have with him! The next nanny you employ will be very lucky to work for such a lovely family.
Max has been teaching our 3.5yr old for 6 months now at our local nursery and is incredibly hard-working and committed. He continually comes up with engaging and challenging activities and our little one loves him! Would highly recommend Max to look after young children, keep them active and having fun!

I was lucky enough to find Max through childcare.co.uk. He has been looking after the twins for over 2 years now and so glad we found him !
The children adore him and he always plays either football or board games and I can happily leave Max to put them to bed for me :)))
I would highly recommend Max and if anyone needs any more info please feel free to message.
