Mariya has babysat a couple of times for our two children - 7 and 9 year old boys - once for an evening and once for a full day. She has a very calm, playful and professional personality. Our children really enjoyed spending time with her and she was a pleasure to speak with. She is very experienced and knows plenty of strategies to keep children regulated whilst having fun. If the kids have come away from babysitting having had fun, feeling positive and at the same time all routines running as usual, then we couldn't hope for anything better. Highly recommended!

Mariya has been really fantastic helping with our daughter (18 months old). She is warm and playful with our daughter who is always delighted to see her and loves their play time! She has also been very helpful and flexible with arrangements and completely professional with her communications etc. We highly recommend Mariya!

Thank you so much Gareth for your lovely feedback. It truly means a lot to me.

Mariya was very good with my 11 year old autistic child who doesn’t connect easily with people. She is very kind and patient and I would definitely recommend her!
