Harjit aunty started work at a very short notice. She picked my kids from nursery in her car. Once home she cooked us lovely Indian rotis and parathas, always tidied the kitchen and the floor after cooking. She is a very good cook and keeps the house clean without directing her. she has made a very close bond with my children and my daughter runs to her when she goes to pick her up. My parents were pleased with her kindness and friendly and caring nature. She is punctual and always informs me before time if she cannot make it so I can have my arrangements to pick kids. She is also super talented and helped us sewing clothes whenever she had some free time. never idled around and used every minute to do some chores and help out with anything she could. Sat my kids in garden to do some reading and played with them. i work full time and I never once had to worry about my kids and home in her presence.
I am so impressed with her and I think she is an amalgamation of professionalism and socialization at the same time. Its very hard to find people like Harjit aunty and I definitely recommend her as a truly loving trustworthy kind and professional nanny.
I wish I could continue to get her services but unfortunately I am now in need of a full time nanny. I wish her good health and may Gods blessings be with her and her family always.

Harjit looks after my 7 year old for a week or two at a time. Usually from 10:30-3:30 or 7am-3:30, during term time, when he has broken up from school and I am at work.
I make my little boy packed lunches everyday, so Harjit doesn’t need to bother with lunch, as my boy can by picky with his food. Harjit specialises in Asian cooking, but will make my boy an additional sandwich, when needed.
I also ask Harjit to do school work with him daily. Either his timetables, maths or writing practice.
She is kind with him, and perseveres with him when he naturally does not want to do any of this school work.
She has also painted with him, plays board or card games with him. When he wants to go outside to kick his football around, she will go out with him and supervise.
As she is unfamiliar with my local area, she does not take W out on trips to the park or other areas of interest. So they stay in the house and kill time, until I or my husband get home.
Harjit, also potters around the downstairs, keeping everything clean and tidy and helps my boy to organise his toys etc, so the place is kept tidy. She hoovers up and washes my pots, in addition to her main duty.
Honestly, if we didn’t have Harjit, I do not know what we would do. Harjit is paid cash in hand at the end of the week & is flexible with dates and times.

We got in touch with Harjit to help with babysitting but as working parents, we asked if she could help with cooking. she now makes several fresh meals for our 2 kids (7 and 2) every week. It's great they can enjoy home cooked Indian meals and Harjit is a very good cook and always asks them what they would like to eat...Harjit is always punctual, great to communicate with, kids love chatting with her and is a part of our family now..

Abhijit and Roopa got in touch with me as they needed help with babysitting their two lovely kids. They all welcomed warmly and made me feel part of their loving family. Their two kids are very friendly, polite and full of joy. The kids enjoy talking and we always have lots of fun conversations and laughter together.
Abjijit and Roopa are very accommodating, understanding and I always look forward to the days I go to their house for weekly cooking. It is a pleasure to cook for you all and I am glad you like the food. Thank you for everything :)
Harjit looked after our son from when he was 10 months - 18months of age. From the beginning we were very impressed with her communication. She was always punctual, even for 6:30am starts. She had a really lovely connection with our son. We never saw her on her phone but she would be entertaining him looking for helicopters or birds in the sky. She would often take him for walks in the pram or pick him up from nursery in her car. She was amazing at preparing him food and would make him healthy meals with ingredients from our fridge without much direction from us. Harjit also made us delicious Indian food!! She always left our place immaculate and would clean the kitchen or mop the floors when our son slept. She has a lovely family and raised three (now adult) sons of her own which she has a close relationship with. Harjit became part of our family, we however have moved to Australia. We miss her and wish she could have come with us. Her next employer will be lucky to have her.

Thank you very much for your kind and lovely words Phoebe. It means a lot to me. It has been a true pleasure and joy to look after your son, and allowing me to be part of your loving home and family. Phoebe's son is such a lovely intelligent child, cute and a joy to look after. It has been a privilege to look after him as we had fun times together which will stay with me forever.
Phoebe and her partner are the most amazing and lovely people, who are very understanding, accommodating and welcoming. They truly treated me like part of their family and I even got to meet Phoebe's mum who is so lovely and I miss her a lot!
I wish I could come to Australia too but hopefully we will all meet again soon. If anyone gets the chance to look after Phoebe's son and work with her family, it will be a true and you will also be very lucky.
She's very good with my 10mo and she is super organised. the nursery/ playpen are so amazingly! organised and tidy after the sit even though my baby loves to throw her toys everywhere and anywhere.
She's punctual - and not just once - every single time and lovely to talk to each time. She always tries her best to juggle her tight timeslots to fit me in on short notice and it is greatly appreciated.

Jules and her husband are such a lovely couple, who always make me feel welcome into their home. Jules is very good with communication, is very understanding and her flexibility means that we are always able to come to a solution together. We always have a lovely time and conversation. Jules really makes me feel part of her family.
Jules's daughter is very cute, playful and friendly. She has a lovely smile and brightens up the day. Always happy to share my experience and help with the tidiness. Look forward to seeing you soon! :)
I had a meeting I needed to attend and needed childcare urgently. I contacted Harjit not being sure what to expect. She was really nice, moved her schedule with the short notice . She also made it to my place on time before my meeting. Not once did my child feel bored and come disrupt my meeting which I feared would happen. She made the experience as I am a first time mum really stress free for me. My child was happy to show her all his toys lol. Thank you so much Harjit . You are one in a million.

Augistin is very polite, respectful, kind and considerate. We were able to make the arrangements easily in a short-space of time and enabled Augustin to carry out her important meeting. Augustin made me feel very welcome in her home.
Augustin's son is so lovely and we had such a fun time together with his toys! It was a real pleasure looking after him and I look forward to the next time we meet. :)
I would highly recommend Harjeet to anyone looking for a Nanny/ babysitter or any kind of help with the childcare or other things around the house. She is very efficient, proactive, flexible, punctual and kind. I am so grateful to my friends who recommended her to me. My 3 years old twins instantly connected to her and I am very happy to leave them with her as I know they will be looked after really well.
I wish I had found her a bit sooner when they were little 😊

Thank you for your lovely comments Twinmum. It is a true pleasure looking after your twins who are so lovely, kind, friendly and interesting. It is a pleasure helping you out as and where I am able to. Twinmum has treated me with respect, care and love at all times, and made me feel part of the family. I wish I had found you sooner too but I am glad we found each other eventually :)
Harjit has been brilliant in doing the school runs, very reliable. Would highly recommend her to other parents. She makes sure that she communicates her appointments and informed me if there are unexpected changes in due time.

Thank you for your kind words Gem :)
It was wonderful working for and helping Gem. Her son is so intelligent, funny, interesting and polite. I always looked forward to doing the school runs for Gem, it was one of my highlights of the day!
I asked Harjit to escort my son to school on daily basis. Though she had a very tight schedule, she accommodated him immediately. Harjit is a very kind, passionate, caring and warm person. My son loved her instantly and felt safe around her. She was punctual, organised, very professional, and safety-aware. From day one we felt as part of one family and that our son is in safe hands. We are very thankful for her care.
