My husband and I had an invite for a no kids wedding so needed a babysitter for most of the day. We don’t go out together much so our kids are not used to any other adults, apart from the childminder looking after them. We met her beforehand and she was so friendly, already interacting with the children.

On the day, I already said please don’t worry about mess being left etc and kept in touch whilst I was out. We came home and children were fast asleep in bed, the living room was tidier than we left it and the washing up had been done and put away. She even made arts and crafts with them as an activity.

Definitely made me feel at ease and will be using again in the future.
