Katie is a lovely, kind and professional nanny/childminder. Prior to her looking after my newborn twins and eight year old daughter she had provided with me all the relevant references, qualifications and certificates.
The time she had the children, she was on time, very polite, and settled into my home straight away. When she was looking after them she had text me and kept me updated with how they were.
My daughter said she was really kind and lovely and would love for her to look after them again.
I will defiantly be using katie again in the future.
Katie has looked after our two daughters aged 3 and 6 a few times and she is an utter delight to work with. She is punctual, reliable, and has a wonderful warmth combined with exceptional skill in childcare which makes the perfect combination of assets in choosing someone to entrust your children to. Our younger child has separation anxiety sometimes when we go out, and Katie knows exactly how to distract her and calm her down. She is so kind and reassuring, I always know my children are in the safest of hands when they are with Katie and I’d recommend her to anyone for any age child...she is a delight!
Katie has been our son's Nanny since August 2019, it was out first time hiring a Nanny and my first experience of returning to work when my son was 8 months old. Katie made the transition so much easier and she gave me every confidence my son would be so safe and well looked after, fast forward almost 1 year and that confidence has only grown stronger. Katie has an amazing relationship with my son, and I know when I leave him, he will be happy all day long. I see this in all the videos and photos I receive daily. Katie also has additional responsibilities managing a health condition our son has which she takes in her stride. Katie is excellent at ensuring his treatments are administered every day without fail and always has his health, safety, wellbeing and happiness at the heart of everything she does with and for him. Katie is very creative and will always find new things to engage our son with to promote his development and actively encourages his learning every day. Katie is enthusiastic, trustworthy, reliable and nurturing, for my son most importantly fun!
Katie was employed with us between Oct 2017 - Aug 2019. During this time she cared for our 3 children. Her duties involved school drop off / pick up, activities, days out, crafts, planning and preparing meals and snacks. There is no doubt that Katie cared and tended for the childrens' needs. She was punctual, reliable and approachable. The kids will miss their Katie days. We wish you the very best for your future.
We have two children and needed someone to care for them while we worked on weekends.
Our eldest is autistic so needed someone who would be able to care for him and our bubbly 5 year old daughter, and Katie has fitted right in.
We are so pleased we found her.
We feel incredibly lucky counting on Katie as a Nanny. We do not have any family around and when we needed to leave our baby for the first time it was really daunting as we are first time parents and were very nervous about leaving our son with someone who we barely knew but Katie was lovely since the very first second, she visited us before taking the job with her impressive curriculum in Childcare and she showed from the very beginning confidence, professional manners and knowledge about childcare.
When we go out, she is always updating us sending photos, videos. She is confident to take him for outdoors activities which we found really nice and give us reassurance that he’s having a wonderful time as well as us.
Katie is now part of our lives, anytime that we need to go out we feel so relieved knowing that our son will be safe and at the same time will have a good time.
She has that special magic with children, our little one connected with her instantly and we cannot be happier and more grateful.
I would highly recommend Katie to anyone. She is just brilliant.
Katie visited our house prior to babysitting to meet my two daughters aged 5 & 2 years which was lovely. They warmed to her straight away and were very comfortable in her company. She is a fantastic babysitter, very punctual, trustworthy, experienced, and we can relax and enjoy our evening knowing our children are in safe hands. Would highly recommend. Thank you!
We heard about Katie through a friend and hired her for babysitting when we needed to leave our 5 month old for the first time. We hadn’t met before but as soon as she arrived I felt comfortable with her. She was really reassuring and so knowledgeable on all aspects of childcare so she made me feel at ease. She knew I was nervous so kept me updated through the evening, sending photos of my baby on the monitor etc which allowed me to relax. We’ve used Katie several times since then and have found her brilliant. She coped really well with our baby even when he was having a difficult time sleeping and was able to comfort him back to sleep, which even we were struggling with at the time. She also gave loads of advice on how to improve his sleeping which was really beneficial. She’s warm, friendly and very easy to talk to. I trusted her instantly and would highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a babysitter.
After becoming unwell and in need of emergency childcare, we found Katie. She took sole charge of my two young daughters on a temporary basis while I was recovering.
It was an unsettling time for my children and I was anxious at the prospect at leaving my children with someone we were unfamiliar with. However, Katie was kind and thoughtful towards them, took them on some lovely days out and ensured they were well cared for and had a great time.
Katie was professional and punctual and always updated me throughout the day. I can highly recommend her based on our experiences.
This was the very first time that we left our 3 months old baby with someone else that we haven't met before and only first parents will know how daunting it can be!! I was very anxious that evening. I remember that when we met Katie I instantly thought that she genuinely loves what she does, she is very gentle, caring, confident and very professional! We had a wonderful evening outside knowing that our boy was in very good hands! We're so grateful and we cannot recommend Katie enough. THANK YOU!
