Amazing night nanny

We can’t recommend Helen highly enough as our night nanny. From day one, she got straight in with our daughter and never missed a beat. She gave us clear guides, patiently supported every question we had, and helped us establish a routine exactly when we needed it — always guiding us rather than dictating to us, which meant we felt empowered rather than replaced as parents.

Helen’s flexibility was outstanding. She stayed longer hours when we needed it and worked around her schedule even when she had other client commitments, which made a real difference during a hard stretch. Most importantly, she gave me the chance to actually rest and recover.

We had Helen’s support for 12 weeks, during which she helped us through sleep training and even set us up with a book to track and show the differences day by day — a small touch that made a big difference in seeing our progress.

Helen is a fantastic night nanny, and we’re happy to give references to anyone considering hiring her.

Super supportive night nanny

Helen helped us for 10 weeks from when my daughter was a week old to 12 weeks. My husband and I could not have managed the initial phase without her. My surgery recovery was challenging as was my milk supply. Helen looked after our daughter with thought and care, and was super reassuring in how she handled the baby. She is experienced and has lots of tips and information, and helped us establish a feeding routine. She would always advise based on her experience but leave it to the mother's judgment, which I appreciated. We had a great experience and was very thankful for her presence in those early days.

Helen is a super star!

We hired Helen to support us during the nights with our first baby, from birth to around 13 weeks. Helen completely exceeded our expectations from day 1. She provided so much more support beyond getting a good night’s sleep - she helped to establish our day time routine, recommended products to buy, helped with feeding, introduced us to a specialist paediatrician…the list goes on! Our baby had reflux which we found difficult at times but Helen provided a lot of support and advice to manage it. Helen was a pleasure to have in our home - she was kind, compassionate, reliable and great with our baby. Our baby is a great sleeper and feeder - I am sure this wouldn’t be the case if it wasn’t for Helen. I don’t know what we would have done without her and I can’t recommend her highly enough, particularly to first-time parents.

A***

Helen helped with my newborn son since he was 2 weeks old. I couldn’t recommend her enough!! She was absolutely amazing from the moment she walked in the door I felt completely at ease and relaxed knowing he was in the best hands. Helen always knew what to do and that allowed me to have some well needed rest during those tiring first weeks. Until now Helen is still so helpful and always has such a great approach with her extensive experience. Having someone like Helen even made me consider having another baby just to book her again. Thank you Helen, we are forever grateful for your help and advice.

Trusted, Knowledgeable, and Hugely Supportive

Helen supported us from when our baby was 3 weeks old until nearly 13 weeks, and we couldn’t have asked for more. She delivered exactly what she promised, offered excellent advice, and was a steady, reassuring presence throughout. By the end of her time with us, our baby was sleeping through the night.

Her calm confidence and deep experience were invaluable. She always knew how to help, never imposed, and ensured our whole family felt comfortable. Her approach is thoughtful, practical and grounded in so much experience.

We felt so lucky to have her with us during those early weeks. We’d recommend Helen without hesitation and would love to work with her again if we have another baby. Thank you so much, Helen!

Helen is the BEST

Helen worked with our son from week 5 to 16. She was extremely helpful not only handling the nights so we could rest but also teaching us good sleeping habits and day routine. As a result my son was sleeping through the night at just 12 weeks old. Helen is punctual and reliable. We were so lucky to work with Helen and highly recommend her.

Best hire I’ve ever made!

It is with great pleasure that I write this recommendation for our wonderful night nanny and maternity nurse. From the moment she started, she was amazing, and she managed to get our baby sleeping through the night from just 8 weeks old. Initially, I was skeptical that anyone could achieve this, but her confidence was contagious and reassured me that it was possible.

As a new parent who hadn't read any baby books, I was completely unprepared. She guided me through every stage, advising me on what to buy and do as my baby grew. Her knowledge was a saving grace, from recommending a pediatrician for reflux issues to suggesting the best creams for my baby's skin. She truly knows everything!

What sets her apart is that she's not your typical night nanny with rigid rules. She collaborates with you to create a baby routine that fits seamlessly into your lifestyle. Thanks to her, I was able to reclaim my life post-birth while effectively managing the early days with my newborn.

Our baby has not experienced any sleep regression, even with our travels across the US and Europe. Her support extends beyond her time with us; she's always available on WhatsApp for any questions, providing an invaluable sense of security.

I cannot recommend her highly enough. She has been an incredible asset to our family, and any parent would be lucky to have her.

The best happy, ray of sunshine Maternity Nanny !!

Helen started looking after our 2nd baby boy when he was 4 weeks old, she was amazing with him, my 3.5 year old and us and injected so much positivity and joy into those early days - which can also be a little tricky to navigate on not much sleep! When Helen arrived we always felt so relaxed knowing we were in really safe hands. She could always sense how we were feeling and was very empathetic. She has so much experience managing babies and children, she is a fountain of knowledge and guidance. We wanted Helen in the day-time and some nights to set a very gentle routine which helped our baby eventually sleep through the night by 9 weeks. Helen made those early months so so much easier and our baby is still very calm and easy now. We would 100% recommend Helen to anyone and miss her!

She’s now a very special person for our family!!

Helen started guiding us even before the baby was born. As first time parents, not only her knowledge and support, but calming and positive energy really meant a lot to us. I could see that she really cared about my baby and our family. Like other reviewer said, she’s really like a family to us!

Thanks to her, we have been almost always happy parents. She accomplished her goal — our baby started sleeping through the night until 6:30/7am by 3 months! And even though he was born premature, his size caught up by following her advice!

A third parent to our baby :)

Helen made a massive difference to the first few months with our first baby. Aside from the obvious benefits of gaining sleep, she gave us so many tips, words of reassurance and support at a time when we really needed it. She was always brilliant at reading a situation, and would know if I'd had a particularly rough time and would always help in a very gentle way. She genuinely cared for our baby boy and at times we even said she was like a third parent to him. After three months we were left as confident parents, with a baby who has good sleep habits and is most importantly very happy. I couldn't recommend Helen more strongly.
