My little boy loves going to Kirsty or seeing her when we are out and about, she hasn't looked after him for some time now but she gets mentioned almost daily!
My son has a blood disorder and it can be quite a worry but I always felt at ease leaving him the care of Kirsty!
She really is a diamond!

Kirsty has looked after my three mess makers a number of times. They love her company, sunny personality and infectious enthusiasm. She has the rare ability to connect with children of all ages making them feel at ease. She is incredibly thoughtful, considering the personalities and preferences of the children in her care, adapting activities so they are engaged and happy to be with her. The kids and I would 100% recommend her.

Kirsty watched after our daughter a few times while we were on holiday in Cornwall this summer. She met us at our hotel and brought some toys with her, which was a really thoughtful touch.
Kirsty was very nice and extremely professional. Our daughter instantly warmed to her and by the last day she was reaching out for Kirsty when she arrived, which made us even more comfortable leaving her in Kirsty's capable hands. At the end of each evening she made sure to tidy the space and clean our daughter's bottle.
An absolute lifesaver - would highly recommend! We'll definitely contact Kirsty again next time we're in Cornwall.

We contacted Kirsty for help looking after our two children for a few nights on our family holiday. Kirsty was really flexible and professional in terms of arranging the cover and when she arrived, she instantly hit it off with the kids which allowed us to head off for the evening without any worries.
She brought some games along to keep the kids entertained (which was a very thoughtful touch) and they were very excited to know when she would be coming again.

Kirsty babysat for our 9 and 7 year old boys twice at the Bedruthan Hotel this summer. She was absolutely great with the boys and they warmed to her immediately. She is fun but firm and we were delighted to have found here! The boys even asked if we could go out another night so that she could come back again - which has never happened before!!! I could not recommend her highly enough.
