Karyn looks after our toddler a few days a week for the last few months and she is really great with her and so professional. She is kind, compassionate and caring and as first time parents she gave us some good tips that help the development of our little one. She is trustworthy and flexible - we recommend for any family needing someone for their little ones!

Karyn has looked after our toddler a few days a week for the past year and has been remarkably reliable and professional. The most important thing for us is that our child is always happy and settled in her care. It certainly helps that Karyn is fit and healthy, as she has no trouble keeping up with a very active toddler. We would highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and energetic nanny.
