Melanie looked after our 1 year old daughter and two sons of one of my bridesmaids, who are 9 months and 2.5 yrs old, on the day of our wedding in Herefordshire.

I was initially cautious having one person look after three young children without previously knowing them all but Melanie said she was confident to do so and she was absolutely fantastic. From initial communication to arrival on the day, she was very professional and clearly extremely experienced. She started in the house in the morning whilst we were getting ready for the wedding and stayed until we returned at midnight. She is full of energy and able to keep a group like this engaged and entertained (which is not an easy task!) whilst also being loving and on top of all things safety. During the wedding, she provided my bridemaid/the other mother with regular updates.

I could not have felt more comfortable leaving our children with someone. I would definitely recommend Melanie and would have no hesitatation in contacting her for babysitting/nannying in the future.
