I'm a single parent and I've never left my 6 yr old daughter with anyone other than my parents. They're now in their 70s, so although they're happy to watch her, and do so whilst I'm at work sometimes, I feel very cheeky asking them to do so on an evening to see friends. So before I knew it years have passed without me going out on an evening or having any real social life. I'm so lucky I found Ann-Marie. She was so warm and approachable, and my daughter took to her straight away. It's so obvious that she is very knowledgeable about children, cares about her families, and is a genuinely kind, warm hearted, considerate and patient person. And I'm actually a much better parent, having had some time to myself, and a bit of a social life again. The only regret I have is not finding her sooner. Thank you!

We were very pleased to meet Annmarie, she's lovely and our children were at ease straight away (my daughter was so happy to see her that she gave her a cuddle!). Annmarie is very punctual, gentle and professional. We explained the children's routine but didn't need to leave any instruction as being a mum herself she already knows all these things and it definitely makes you feel conforable leaving your little ones in her care. We enjoyed a lovely and much needed night out with my husband knowing our children were well looked after and safe. It was our first date night in a long time and won't definitely be the last, thank you again Annmarie! x

Annmarie has been helping me out over a year with my 3 year old son and he absolutely loves having her look after him. I work different shift patterns and she is really flexible with her hours to fit in with what I need. In the last few months I’ve had days I’ve needed childcare at the last minute and she does everything she can to help me out.
She plans things to do each time she’s here and takes my son on trips out to the park, soft play and his favourite day ever- on the bus to the museum! :) He always asks when Annmarie will be next here and is very excited when he knows she’s looking after him. She always keeps in touch with me throughout the day/evening to let me know what they’ve been doing which is lovely. I am so pleased I found Annmarie as she’s super helpful and I know when she’s here I can relax knowing my son is safe and happy. I really appreciate her and can’t recommend her enough.

First time I have ever left my kids with a babysitter. I have a 6yr old and 16month old
AnneMarie was loves by them and me! from the minute she walked through the door! Very kind and gentle, helped my 6yr old with her homework, kids were at ease with her, after I left Annemarie got my 16month old down for a nap no problems, no tears then sent me a text which totally relaxed me and put me to ease.
Annemarie was absolutely lovely and biggest thing of all my kids adored her and my oldest told me she didn’t even want to leave her side and go to her room for even a second!
Totally recommend to absolutely everyone out there needing a babysitter.

Ann has been working with us since June 2015 and looked after my 2 little girls. She easily adapted to fit to the needs our family and I was not worried at work when the girls were with Ann. She would regularly update me with the activities of my little one and made sure she had something to eat as my little one has been fussy eater at times. She also does the school runs for my 6 yr old girl and facilitated activities like tennis. Girls also enjoyed the occasional company of Ann's little son who I think has helped them to bond more with Ann.
After I got a higher training job, I started doing on calls for which Ann has been able to provide cover. She also did occasional night babysitting for my girls when I did night oncalls. She would also help to pick up girls from school and nursery when I was stuck at work.
Unfortunately, we need to let go Ann due to our change in circumstances. I know for sure that my girls would terribly miss her and I'm not sure whether I could find someone else equivalent to Ann with any ease!

Annmarie has been with us since February 2015. She has fitted in well with our family right from the start. We have found her to be trustworthy, reliable, endlessly patient with our three-year-old daughter and a calming, positive influence on us all! We also have a three-month-old son - Annmarie is more than competent at dealing with all aspects of his care and engages with him in an affectionate and gentle way. She is extremely well organised and adept at multitasking, so has no trouble taking care of both children at the same time, despite their often competing needs and demands.
The fact that Annmarie's son is of a similar age to our daughter is a bonus, as she is used to interacting with toddlers and understands the challenges they present. She deals with our daughter's negative behaviour calmly but firmly, and uses mainly positive reinforcement.
Annmarie is most sensitive to our needs and wishes as a family and is able to act on her own initiative where appropriate. Our daughter loves spending time with her and looks forward to seeing her every week.
We hope Annmarie will stay with our family for a long time to come!

This nanny is one not to be missed. as soon as she walked up our garden path we had a positive feeling about her. She has a very warm personality, engaged immediately with our sometimes shy and awkward boys and has great experience professionally and via family of looking after children and developing a positive and nurturing relationship with them. I would have no hesitation in highly recommending her.
