Catriona has been an absolute blessing to our family. She has been caring for my daughter since she was just over one month old, and the bond they have built is truly special. My daughter is now six months old and such a happy, content baby who clearly enjoys her nanny’s company.
Catriona not only takes wonderful care of my daughter’s physical needs, but is also deeply attentive to her emotional well-being. She is patient, nurturing, and genuinely invested in her happiness and development. Leaving my baby to return to work was an incredibly tough decision for me, but Catriona made that transition so much easier. Knowing my daughter is in such loving and capable hands gives me complete peace of mind. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Catriona looked after my 1-year-old and 9-year-old on a couple of occasions, and I was really impressed. Both of my children felt completely settled and at ease with her, which speaks volumes about her calm and caring nature. She is reliable, warm, and great at engaging with children of very different ages. I will be using Catriona in the future!

Catriona created a warm and safe place when she took on the role of childminder for my two neurodivergent sons last summer.
She gave them space to take to her, and took them to the park often, and also did arty and crafting activities with them.
I would use her again in a heartbeat and my boys loved her.
