Emily is our first babysitter and she did a great job. She is very reliable and responsive, making everything easier. She is experienced and knows how to handle fussy babies. She shows genuine care for the baby and managed to get along well with my son quickly. Emily is also happy to help with light housework when the baby is sleeping. I really like her calm and flexible working style.
On top of that, we very much appreciated her taking covid-measures during babysitting - a huge plus for risk-averse families.
Bad experience as I had explained that the baby eats only what I prepare for him and was given cookies (unsafe for allergies) without been asking for it. Also, every babysitter should know that you never leave a baby alone for whatever reason (if there is a need to leave the room you need to find somewhere safe to put the baby)

Response by EmilyF on 26/02/2023:
I directly asked you if it was OK to leave him for a minute when I went to the bathroom, you replied that yes it was, and then when you later said than no it wasn't, I never did it again. I was also not told that he was not allowed to eat one of the (very plain) biscuits that were left out in clear view on the countertop, and if there were allergies, I was not informed of them. I would also like to add that you continued to want me to babysit after both of these things happened.
Emily minded my two boys (2 and almost 5) for a week when my regular childcare provider was unavailable at very short notice.
She was very good and confident with the boys, who can be very boisterous together, and she is clearly experienced with children of this age. They even did not complain when Emily babysat them one evening, which is not a given.
Emily also very kindly tidied up the playroom at the end of each day - something which i did not ask her to do, but very much appreciated.
I will certainly be offering Emily holiday cover in the future.
Emily has been looking after my son who is 11year old, occasionally. She has been flexible with her disponibility. She is pleasant, reliable and responsible. I would certainly recommend her.
Emily was great- very responsive, flexible and reliable.
Very pleasant to communicate and discuss individual needs. Would highly recommend and surely use her again when back in Edinburgh.
We were passing through Edinburgh on a family road trip, and couldn't resist getting tickets for a terrific show as part of the Festival. Emily babysat our three kids and they and we were very happy. Reliable, kind, very punctual. And flexible - we set the babysitting up that very day. Thanks, Emily !
Emily showed up promptly as I was due for a night shift. I had nothing to worry about and was confident that my son was in safe hands. She is really nice and was good with my son . I was truly impressed .I will definitely use her again.
Emily won over both of my girls the moment they met her, when she left my oldest was asking when she was going to come again and I don’t take that lightly :) she is very sweet and attentive to their needs and Im at ease leaving them in her care.
Emily has looked after our two children (7&4) for approx. 2 months now. She’s very reliable, patient and friendly with the kids. My eldest has additional needs and she’s showed great care when dealing with him. Would happily recommend.
Emily has great skills the most important for me was patience and she is the most patient girl I've ever met. Alicia loves staying with her as Emily plays and sing to her all the time. I will definitely recommend her.
