Having Sophie look after our little girl (1y) was our first time using a babysitter who wasn’t a family member and we’re so glad we found her! She came and met our little girl beforehand and was an instant hit and really fun and friendly. She was really professional and kept us up to date on what was going on whilst we were out for the night which was great…we will definitely be using Sophie again!
Sophie was recommended to us by other parents and I’m so glad she was. Sophie made the time to come and meet us and my 4 yo, and then suggested an hour settling session where she took him to the park. This was really successful and my 4 yo was really comfortable. The same week Sophie babysat for us in our new home, and was able to settle my 4 yo to sleep in a new house, having only met him twice before. Sophie is natural around children, her communication with children is great and my son is already fond of her. Sophie’s communication with us as parents has also been excellent. Would recommend if you need for babysitting/childminding, even if your child is not used to a wide range of people looking after them. Thank you!
Sophie is the first babysitter we’ve left our little one with- I would highly recommend! Sophie has loads of experience and always keeps us informed about how our daughter is doing when we’re not there which is very reassuring. Will definitely be using Sophie’s babysitting services again in the future
Sophie is the most amazing person we could have found to look after our 2 year old girl. Our daughter instantly felt comfortable with her - Sophie’s caring, fun and loving nature shows. We get regular updates and our daughter always has a huge smile on her face. X
Sophie babysat for my 2 year old and 8 month old. Sophie immediately put us all at ease and my children warmed to her immediately. Sophie visited ahead of the booking to chat about the boys and their interests. This was the first time I had left my boys and I did not have any worries leaving them in her care. Sophie kept in contact and provided updates on their day. I would 100% recommend Sophie she is kind, caring and everything you could wish for in a child care provider.
