It was definetely a great fun in the restaurant.

Thank you guys for an easy night, I did enjoy It with the little hurricane ;)

See you hopefully next time,
Vicky.

Vicky watched my son the other day and was absolutely terrific. She came right over to my boy and interacted with him and played. He immediately felt the warmth of her and the rest of the evening went without a problem.

She is great with kids, a natural, and I would book her anytime

Thank you very much Alys. Had been a pleasure! All the best in your new adventure,
Vicky.

We recently hired Vicky to look after our 2 boys (3 years and 8 months) when we went on a night out. Everything went great and Vicky seems like a very professional, trustworthy and reliable person. I especially appreciated the text updates Vicky sent me to put my mind to rest. :-) We would definitely hire her again.

Thank you guys. It was my pleasure babysit the two sleeping bunnies , anytime!! ;-)

We were fortunate to find Vicky to look after our little boy, 1 day a week from November 2015 to May 2016 (from 13 to 19 month old), when I returned to work after maternity leave. Unfortunately due to moving from Chorlton to Derbyshire she is no longer able to care for him, but if we could have put her in the removal van and taken her with us we would! We can only say positive things about Vicky's care for our son during these precious months of his life. He was always happy to be with Vicky. We were happy and confident that he was safe and well cared for by her.

Vicky is a caring, kind, warm, generous and friendly person who we enjoyed having in our lives. She bubbles with energy and genuine love for and enjoyment of the children in her care. Vicky took him to playgroups and many lovely trips to the local parks, as well as being happy to play with him at home. She often introduced new and creative ways to play and helped him make us some lovely
gifts that we treasure. He now loves the outdoors and this has much to do with his outings with Vicky and the hours spent playing in the garden.

Vicky kindly kept us up to date with what was going on throughout the day with regular pictures and messages. Which for a Mum and Dad leaving their little boy for the first time was some much-needed reassurance, but in later weeks became a much-welcomed source of pleasure to see them having such a good time yet again.

Vicky was always willing to offer some words of advice and encouragement about any issues or problems that we had with him and was happy to act as a sounding board for our concerns.

In short, Vicky is an excellent nanny/babysitter that we would happily recommend to anyone looking for a fun, dedicated and experienced person to look after their child. It's clearly more than just a job to her. I will miss the laughter that I invariably heard when I came through the door.

Thank you so much guys , I miss you all around sunny Manchester.
And if I had been as good as you are saying it's because you made all so easy. Someone who feels appreciate will do always more than is asked for...
That's it.

Vicky looked after my five year old daughter (now 6) eight hours a week for six months. She is kind and caring and good with children. My daughter took to her quickly and was happy in her care. She engaged in many creative activities with my child, keeping her entertained throughout the evening. I would recommend Vicky as a suitable babysitter/Nanny.

Thank you Helen!
Always a pleasure having Leila. Here we are still after nearly two years ;-)

Vicky has been looking after our now 11 month old baby for two days per week since he was 8 months old and we feel really very lucky indeed to have found her. When she began to look after our baby, he had been going through a phase for quite a few months of being quite fearful of strangers and would often cry if anyone tried to pick him up for example. Vicky quickly established a good rapport with him and now I would say he’s so comfortable with her that she’s like another parent to him. This has also had an impact on how he relates to strangers and he’s again much more friendly with them. Vicky is a lovely person and she brings a lot of energy and love to working with children. We can always rely on her to make sure our baby is well fed, well slept and gets taken out somewhere to be stimulated. She goes above and beyond the call of duty in thinking of what activities might aid his development and she has often made toys in her own time for him to play with. I would have no hesitation in recommending her.

Thanks a lot Catrina! I feel very lucky too working for and with you. You make all so easy!
Little Barney is my sunshine two days a week , the baby with the shorter naps in the whole earth :) xxx

Vicky looked after my lo for a few hours recently and I can only say good things about her. My daughter was happy to hold hands with her from the first minute! Vicky has a special gift when it comes to being around children. You can tell straight away. She lets them lead the game and enjoys participating. Lo was sad to see her go that day and we look forward to seeing her again very soon.

Thank you Carmen. It´s very kind of you! Meet with Spanish mum´s is lovely!
I´ll see you very soon again.

Vicky has been looking after our 2 girls (2 years and 5 months) part time for two months now and already feels like part of the family.

I work from home which isn't the easiest set up for Vicky, but she just gets on with it. The girls absolutely loves her and when Vicky looks after them, they never get upset, which is pretty amazing, especially for a toddler who is constantly testing boundaries.

She clearly loves children and has both a natural ability with them and extensive knowledge and experience. She understands the different stages of child development and adapts activities so that the girls have fun learning. She is extremely patient and always has a positive approach. Vicky interacts constantly with both children, talking and singing with them, and our eldest's talking has greatly improved as a result. She is super proactive, suggesting activities within the home or researching local playgroups and activities.

She is also extremely reliable and trustworthy.

We love Vicky. She has been a godsend and we feel so lucky to have found her.

No words Claire.

Thanks for this wonderful (more than me) opportunity , thanks to the moon and back!




Victoria was a nanny with us for almost six months and we found her fantastic. the children (3y/o and 1y/o) were safe and well cared for; stimulated; and loved.

Victoria clearly thoroughly enjoyed children. She was warm and loving towards both of ours and tailored her interaction and activities with them according to their age and interests. She engaged in activities that were both fun and educational. In addressing their little problems she was creative and demonstrated understanding of their needs and developmental stages.

Any family would be very lucky to have Victoria work with their children.

One thousand years later,here i am... Thank you so much Sarah!
It was my ABSOLUTE pleasure work with and for you. I´ll keep my two fellas on my memories for the rest of my life as a wonderful and unforgettable experience. All the very best!

Victoria had been working for a 5 years for our family in Spain.Victoria was like a member of our family, fulfilling her responsibilities and with our full trust.Victoria is and was always very responsible with our children, whom she has known since they were babies. She was always attentive and treated them with love. Victoria enjoys spending time with them and my children love having her around. She is very organized and she keeps routines for better organization and discipline with children.
Victoria has an impressive natural way with kids and very much appeared genuinely invested in the development of children.She is really dedicated to childcare, clearly because she loves children more than you could even begin to imagine. I would recommend her highly.
Good luck Vicky ,you deserve it!
