Thanks so much, I am glad that I was able to cater for your childcare needs. It was nice working with your family.
One of the most concerning aspects was the cleanliness and safety standards of the environment in which my child was supposed to spend their time.
She refused to give me invoice for my payment on 2 occasions.
She came me benefit earner that she only takes children of professionals workers even she known I am a registered nurse.
I would not recommend their services to other parents seeking reliable childcare options.

I am truly sorry to hear about your experience with our service. We strive to maintain high cleanliness and safety standards, and I apologize if you felt these were not met during your child's time with us.
Regarding the invoice, I want to clarify that I tried to address this matter by contacting the childcare team and following the advice given to me to contact my insurance. Unfortunately, I was unable to secure payment from the insurance, which is why the invoice was not provided. We are unable to issue invoices for payments that have not been made.
I understand your dissatisfaction with the situation, but it's essential to acknowledge that payment is necessary for the services provided. We are committed to resolving any issues and ensuring a positive experience.
Bollar has been an amazing presence in my twins' lives. They thoroughly enjoyed her company and felt incredibly comfortable in her care while I was at work. The environment she provided was not only nurturing but also conducive to their growth and development. It's evident that my children have developed a strong fondness for her, which speaks volumes about her exceptional care and dedication.

Aww, I am so pleased to be part of the twins development. I would love to this over and over again.
Bollar is a very nice and helpful childminder. She picked up my son and he looked after him until we were coming back from work. If I needed her to look after my son as an emergency she did it and it was very helpful.I am very pleased with her services and recommend her as a childminder! ☺️

Awww thanks so much Anca, it's was a pleasure looking after your lovely brilliant son. I hope to be of help in the future.
The whole experience was very pleasant and the girl loved having her around. Boller was also able to do some flexible babysitting for us which wa quite helpful.
It was unfortunate that she had to stop coming due to our family change of circumstances. My girls still ask about her every now and then.
There is nothing more comforting than knowing your kids are happy and felt safe with their sitter.

I met Bollar through this website and she looked after my 4 years old for 3 days as an emergency nanny when me and my husband were on call.
I found her very friendly, humble and kind towards my son . She developed a good bond with him and at the same time was very disciplined . She listened to him patiently and interacted with him.
My son loved her and I will definitely recommend Bollar to anyone who is looking to hire a nanny .
