My Fees
- Babysitting from £17.00 per hour
- Nannying from £18.00 per hour (gross)
Unfortunately I cannot accept government funded hours. My rates will depend on distance/where you live. If you are happy to pay mileage we can discuss fees.
I am trained to a high standard and pride myself on this. If you are looking for a Saturday night “babysitter” I am not this. I am so much more. I am extremely professional & this will show upon meeting me. My prices reflect my knowledge and my training. Your children will be expertly looked after in my care :)

We have known Carly for just under a year now and it has been an absolute pleasure to have her as a PA to my little boy. My son has severe autism, moderate learning disability, ADHD, he is non verbal and not toilet trained. Carly is amazing with him and meets all of his high care needs. I honestly do not know how we ever managed without Carly, she has given our family a chance to have quality time with my other son. When I first started using Carly, I was so nervous leaving my little boy, as all parents would be and Carly has built such a fantastic bond with him. Nothing is ever too much trouble for Carly, she is very flexible and accommodating. Anyone can look after a child but it takes a special person to look after a special needs child and I could not recommend Carly enough.

I was really struggling to find the right person to provide care for my autistic, non verbal 3 year old with sensory processing disorder. Then I wad lucky enough to find Carly on here! Carly is so amazing with my son and he has taken to her straight away. She talks to him so much which I absolutely love, she presumes competance and sees the best in him which not all caregivers would. I trust her completely and she's already become part of the family, everyone loves her. Meet her and you'll see what I mean, she cares so much about the kids she looks after. As a single Mum I couldn't be happier to have found Carly and have her be part of my sons support system.

We have had this nanny work for us for 10 months and the last few weeks we have had to challenge her on the care she had supplied for our non-verbal child, in the end letting her go.
Her recent unprofessional behaviour and putting photos of our children without written consent from us onto social media and her advertising page then refusing to remove them when asked and became very aggressive towards my wife.

Carly was absolutely amazing, we booked her for a whole day with our 8 year old Autistic son for a wedding, we had main roles in the wedding so our attention was need for the bride and groom! Without carly the day wouldn't have been possible, she absolutely amazing!! Our son loved her and she felt like family looking after him although we'd only met the day before! Honestly couldn't recommend enough!!
Thank you so much!!

Thank you so much! Your children are lovely and I enjoy my time spent with them. I have learnt so much in a short time, your daughter is inquisitive in the best way! I love how comfortable your son is with me and the cuddles he gives. Thank you for using my services, now and in the future.
My son is 1 and my daughter is two they got on with her so easily and so quickly she took them to soft play and they had a really good time she’s a really nice person and I couldn’t ask for anyone better, she made sure that she knew everything about the children and reassured me as I like to know the person I’m leaving my children with, I Would definitely recommend her!
