Reviews
Jemma
“Thank you for looking after our 3, they loved you and you made it so so easy for us. Can’t wait to have your help again x”
Gemma
“So here is a picture of my son (age 2) sitting watching Lauren leave today, and waving goodbye to her through the window. He has told me several times since that he’d really like her to come back and play with him again soon. This was our very first time hiring a babysitter, and in a very short space of time Lauren has just gone out of her way to quell our son’s (and our!) nervousness and to get to know him very quickly but naturally. He just can’t wait to see her again! Thanks Lauren! Xx”
Caroline
“Lauren is so friendly and nurturing, my daughter was immediately comfortable with her at the initial intro and play date and you’d have thought they had known each-other forever! Looking forward to using Lauren for future childcare bookings x”
Rachel
“Lauren was wonderful. She really engaged our 9 and 11 year old. They said they really liked her. So thank you Lauren, it’s a relief that we can come back to you x”
Charlotte
“Hello just wanted to write a review, Lauren has been incredible with my son, he suffers from severe anxiety and Lauren has been so empathetic and so kind, honestly 100% recommend her especially if your child needs a 121 or extra support.”
Paulina
“Thank you Lauren for looking after our 2. Great professionalism and patience! Kids loved you x”
Emily
“Lauren has been babysitting our baby boy once a month for the past few months and has put us at total ease each time. She’s punctual and friendly and has always been able to comfort him and even get him to go back down when he wakes up. Her experience, warm nature and excellent communication takes all the worry out of going out for date night ❤️🎉”
Katie
“Lauren is fantastic!!! My 16 month old suffers with separation anxiety. We had a previous childminder that he went to for a few months but didn’t settle at all to the point that they could no longer care for him. So, as you can imagine my nerves were through the roof when having to try out a new childminder all over again. However, since being with Lauren he has not cried once. He thrives in her setting and it definitely puts me at ease knowing that he is in a place where he is comfortable. I couldn’t be happier with the care my little one receives and I would recommend Lauren to anyone! ❤️”
Lucy
“Lauren babysat for us for the first time this week. It is the first time that we have had someone outside the family babysit in a long time. She arrived early and took in all the info about bedtimes, routines etc and my children (8 and 13) were very happy to be with her for the evening. She was even brilliant with our mad beagle 🐶. Thanks Lauren, I will be getting you to babysit again x”
Katie
“I booked Lauren to care for my two boys 5 years and under for babysitting service. It was the first time I had ever booked a babysitter so I was unsure how it would go however Lauren made me feel instantly at ease, she spent a little time with the boys at bedtime but got them to settle and kept me informed. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and I would highly recommend Lauren.”
