Amy has been an incredible help with my children since we moved to London. My son, who is 5 years old and still learning English, immediately connected with her. She has a wonderful way with him, and they always had a great time together. Amy was consistently punctual and even patiently waited when I was occasionally late from work.
Unfortunately, we are moving to a new area in London, and both my son and I are truly sad that Amy won’t be able to stay with us. She has been a wonderful presence in our lives, and we will miss her dearly.

Amy is an amazing person to have on your team. She is so kind, patient and intuitive in how she works and never fails to bring creative flair to a days activities. She always takes the time to check in with us and our little one and very quickly taps into the best way to approach the day. Highly highly recommended!!!

Amy has helped me run an after school and holiday art club for children aged 4-11yrs for the last two years, and is absolutely wonderful with them. Amy meets every project with enthusiasm and knows how to adapt and help every child based on their needs and ability, to get the best out of them. She is a natural with children, and intuitively knows what is required to keep them engaged. if you’re looking for someone who is playful, creative and enjoys the outdoors to give your child memorable experiences and not just childcare, Amy is perfect. She is always on time, highly trustworthy and goes above and beyond what is required. I highly recommend her!

Amy has looked after my children 2/3yrs and 4/5yrs and they absolutely love her. She is creative and joyful with a passion for art and music that she shares with the children who thrive around her.
Whether it’s face painting or baking or playing outside Amy understands what the children need and how to bring the best out of them. She is a pleasure to have around and we would highly recommend her.
