Shona has been very good with our 9 month old. She was comfortable to do the whole of the evening routine from playtime, to dinner, to bath time and then sleep.

Shona had taken the time to meet our baby and us prior to her initial visit. This helped our baby to get to know her better for the actual babysitting evening. She was engaging, playful, patient, very happy and confident in looking after our baby. She also kept us informed throughout the evening which certainly reassured us.

We are planning to have her back on a regular basis (if she’ll have us!) thank you Shona :)

Shona looked after my 18month old boy for days in June while I was working. She was great with him and he really enjoyed his days with her. She kept me up to date throughout the day with photos and how he was doing and she really treated him so wonderfully. I felt completely safe and trusted her straight away and you can tell she just loves the children she watches. Definitely recommend her.

Thank you for your kind review Fiona, your little boy was such a joy to look after we had a fun time on our outings.
You have my number if you require my services again.
Shona.

My baby girl loved spending time with Shona and I felt very confident leaving her for the work hours I needed covered. Shona was incredibly professional and went above and beyond to make the situation work very smoothly and comfortably for me and my daughter. Will definitely want to use Shona again.

Hi Ruth
Thank you for the lovely feed back,it was such a joy caring for your little one. I look forward to seeing you when you visit Edinburgh. You have my number.

Shona was very caring and lovely with our 2 children, a 4 year old and 1year old. This was the first time they spent the evening with a babysitter, so quite a novelty for them. But Shona felt like family and both of them loved her immediately. She was with us for a short period (5pm to midnight), but they enjoyed it so much that our 4 year told us all about in the morning 😊
Communication was great and very flexible to our schedule and needs!
We would highly reccommend Shona!

Hi Daria

It was a joy caring for the children, fun chasing each other around the house, we enjoyed songtime and stories. You have my details if I can help with care in the future.
Best wishes
Shona.

I booked Shona for the a recent 7pm to 9am overnight sitting for my 16 year old.
I was looking for a service where they could begin to practice their independence (i.e. cooking a simple meal) whilst under the watchful eye of someone.

Shona arrived precisely on time and spent the evening playing card and board games with my teen. My teen enjoyed the experience of having a nice, friendly and caring person around.

We paid £300 for 14 hours of attendance (this also included £20 travel costs)

Shona is a lovely lady and I'd thoroughly recommend her.

Thank you for your kind review.
I enjoyed my time with you.
Look forward to working with you again if you ever require my services.
Best regards

Shona was an excellent nanny to my 1 year old son and he truly adored her. She is absolutely wonderful with children. I’ve seen her with all ages of children and she really has something magical about her that children and babies love. She is warm and nurturing and quick to make a connection with the children, it felt like having a family member looking after him. Shona always had lots of different fun games and activities up her sleeve and also took him out for lovely nature walks and to the park every day. Would highly recommend Shona.

Hi Vicky

It was such a joy caring for your wee boy. He came on so well in my care. I just adored his affectionate smile.
Don and I miss him dearly.
I hope you both are doing well.
Shona.

Shona was so great with the three girls that we hired her to babysit. They all loved her, and we would absolutely use Shona’s services again. Shona is so friendly and great with kids!

Thank you for your kind feedback.
The girls were wee gems. Happy to offer my services the next time you’re in Scotland.

Shona has provided my 3 children the most professional and quality childcare which provides a sense of reassurance every time. With experience, flexibility and reliability alongside, I would highly recommend Shona for childcare and will continue to value her service and support.

Hi Sam
Thank you for your lovely feedback review of my services, it’s very much appreciated.


I have such fun time with the children it’s so nice to see children enjoying board games than having their heads stuck into a phone or computer. I will continue to provide care as and when you require me.

Shona.

Shona looked after our 1 and 3 year old for an evening including bed time. It was the 1st time we left the boys with anyone and we felt confident in Shona's skills as a nanny. She got them both asleep and in their beds (almost a miracle 😆). Shona has a calm and nurturing approach and we will definitely use her again!

Thank you for the lovely feedback.
Look forward to seeing the boys again.

Shona has been the childminder for our two daughters over the past 8 years. She provides an excellent service, is kind, caring and organised. Importantly, both girls really enjoyed any time with Shona. I've no hesitation recommending Shona for any childcare duties.
