Thank You 🙏 for such a great review. I love my job and always do my best. No hardship for me. You are such a lovely family, welcoming me into your home, treating me with respect , I literally felt like a family member and I honestly had a great time with your son, the hours flew by, nearly didn’t want to go home as I felt so settled. Thank You so much 🤗.

A brilliant sitter

5 stars

We have had Amanda over at our house to sit for our daughter aged 4. Amanda brings along a lot of toys with her which are very exciting for children. She is very lovely to speak to and makes sure she follows your child’s routine. She is very funny and definitely keeps your child entertained for hours. We would definitely recommend Amanda to our friends and family too. Thank you Amanda 😊

Highly recommended - professional babysitter

5 stars

Amanda was great! She was on time, well prepared, professional and proactive in communicating/providing updates up to the date of the booking. Provided all the documentation prior and also turned up with her passport as ID. Went through many profiles before deciding and was very glad that we went with Amanda.

Amazing person

5 stars

We hired Amanda-Jane to stay with our autistic child. This was first time I left him with somebody else, so I was very anxious. Amanda-Jane was absolutely amazing. Took care of my son really well, had long conversations with him and kept him company. He was very happy and I was sure my child is in safe hands. Thank you Amanda-Jane. We are all very grateful for tour help. X

Fantastic babysitter

5 stars

Amanda came to babysit our 2year old daughter last month and we can’t rate her highly enough. It was the first time we had used a none family babysitter and she was great and very relaxed and left us feeling confident to enjoy our evening. Would definitely recommend

Amazing childminder

5 stars

We have been using Amanda for 4 months now and would really recommend her. She is fantastic with our daughter Felicity, who has gained so much confidence since starting with her at 9 months old. I wouldn't trust anyone else with Felicity, and she respects our parenting ways. She is very hands on and her home is amazing with so many toys and educational posters etc !

excellent childcare

5 stars

Amanda has looked after my little girl as if she was her own. I wasn't worried leaving my child with amanda at all, she offers a lovely safe homely environment full of lots of activities and things to do. I liked that poppy was made to feel like part of the family. A lovely lovely lady, We will miss you! X

Babysitter

5 stars

We used Manda to babysit at our hotel for two nights when attending a family wedding in the Eastbourne area. We found her to be good at communicating in the lead up to the weekend, she turned up on time both nights and was confident being left with the children even though they weren't yet asleep. We were able to relax and enjoy the night without worrying about the kids, so many thanks for that, Manda!

Highly recommended childminder

5 stars

Amanda has been looking after one or both of my children for over a year now, and from the first meeting and first day childminding them she has given me every confidence in her excellent abilities. She provides a really welcoming environment, everything is safe, organised and policies are well documented, and she provides a detailed written description of their activities each day. The standard of care is excellent, and as a person she is lovely - I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Amanda as a childminder!

fantastic childminder

5 stars

We have used Manda for a couple of years and Caitlin adores her. She is treated like part of the family and Manda has devoted the entire ground floor of her house to the children! It has to be seen to be believed. I would not hesitate to recommend her and she'll remain a family friend long after Caitlin has grown.
