I loved working with Maria from the get go. She was very responsive and was very easy to communicate and agree on babysitting for our son 30 mins after i posted a job!
She followed up with dbs check and passport copy and cv!
She was punctual-and our son warmed up to her so fast! You can really tell she has loads of experience working with babies and children! Very kind, gentle and fun to be around, Filip definitely loved her company and was super comfortable with Maria.
I would recommend her 1000%, next time we need babysitter, I will contact her again without any doubt!
Thank you very much Maria once again, we were very lucky to have found you!

Hello Bojana and family ❣️✨🧚🏻♀️,
Thank you so much for your kind review. Your family and Filip were so sweet and welcoming, from the get go. It was a delight to work for you and spend time with your wonderful , endearing son.
I would be delighted and honoured to sit again for you guys 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you 🤩
Maria was wonderful from when she first messaged about my request for childcare. Not having any family living near us meant that I was nervous about having somebody new come look after my 7 and 5 year old. Maria instantly put me at ease, providing her DBS check and further information without any hesitation. Leading up to the night, she maintained contact which helped me feel even more comfortable. She arrived 5 minutes early, and instantly I could tell she was a warm and kind person. She wanted to know about the kids schedule and the kids fell in love with her straight away. So much so, they are demanding I arrange for her to come back. Thanks Maria for all your care and kindness!

Thank you so much for your beautiful review 😊 🙏💕 . It was a delight to work for your family and I would be honoured to look after your two wonderful children again. Many Thanks 🙏
Great initial communication however due to unforeseen circumstances, Maria cancelled last minute, which of course cannot be helped.

I’m very sorry for the exceptional circumstances that occurred and meant I couldn’t attend. I ironically was left with no childcare myself. This is not as you can see from my previous reviews something that usually occurs. It is not a reflection of my childcare abilities or reputation.
Many Thanks,
Maria
