Kaya has babysat our 5-year-old daughter a few times, and we honestly couldn’t ask for anyone better! Our daughter loves going there and always has such a great time. Kaya is super organised, always on time, and keeps in touch really well — communication has been excellent. She keeps our little one busy with fun activities and we always know she’s safe and happy. The extra languages Kaya speaks have also been a lovely bonus!
Highly recommend her to any parents looking for a caring and reliable babysitter.
