Honestly, Monica is a lifesaver. You can tell she’s been doing this for a long time because nothing rattles her. My kids (a toddler and a 5-year-old) took to her instantly, which doesn't always happen. She’s just one of those people who genuinely loves kids and knows how to keep them happy and safe. We trust her completely.

Hello all,
We had the worst possible experience with this person and would not recommend her
1. No references: When asked for references [name + number], Monica claimed that she changed phones and lost all family / work contacts from practically the last 10 years she has been doing this. She wouldn't name the nursery school she worked in, claimed that she was working for a 'Paola' [no surname] and changed at the last minute the mobile number of the contact she had eventually provided due to laptop issues.
2. After we agreed to work with her [stupidly before asking for references] she mentioned extra costs like a £100 standard fee when travelling, and full compensation for the day if we failed to notify her a week in advance
3. She offered to do a trial week and then bailed on us for the first three days to spend more time with her family from Spain. She blamed us for miscommunication.
I would not trust her to do this job, and I wish her best of luck
Myrto

Thank you to the Karavias Family for their feedback. I would like to clarify that I did not provide childcare services for this family, and no formal agreement was ever in place.
I provide professional, reliable, and high-quality childcare, and I encourage families to contact my references or review my profile for verified feedback from families I have successfully worked with.
I take pride in ensuring a safe, supportive, and positive environment for every child in my care.
She was an excellent babysitter for my twins, they loved her.
They went to many activities and she always dedicated herself to teaching them colors number and how to use the potty.
We're going to miss her a lot!❤️
