We were attending a wedding at Pylewell Park, Lymington and found Hannah at the last minute after being let down by another babysitter. From the moment we met her, she was warm, calm, caring and incredibly reassuring.
Hannah looked after our 7-month-old daughter, and it was immediately clear that she was experienced, thoughtful and genuinely caring. She put us completely at ease, allowing us to relax and enjoy the wedding knowing our little one was in safe hands.
She was professional, considerate and wonderful with our daughter throughout. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable babysitter, and we would happily hire her again in the future.
Thank you, Hannah!

Our kids love Hannah and it's always wonderful having her around. She has the most fantastic way of interacting with the children, very respectful and on their level, which reaps wonderful results with them behaving well and willingly following her lead. Hannah has a very calm nature which sets the tone but she also uses strategies for engaging with them in fun ways whether that's games at home or out-and-about. It's easy to trust Hannah, she's very professional, always on time and goes out of her way to help if she can. Hannah has become a joyful and reliable part of our family.

Hannah had been fantastic with our two wee boys, they love hanging out with her. Nothing is too much trouble for Hannah, and she is so kind and gentle. Thank you Hannah, I feel so lucky to have found you. I would happily recommend Hannah.
