Deborah made herself available on short notice and dove in at the deep end straight away by looking after our 8 months old son during our Christmas Party. She was great with our baby, very punctual, precise and just a pleasure to be around. We have since then used Deborah’s services again and will be doing so in the future. We feel very lucky to have her in our neighbourhood and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone!

Deborahs Childcare is brilliant, she is very professional and keeps you informed throughout the duration of her service. I'm totally at ease with her caring for my 3 year old son. She is also very accommodating to arrive at short notice if she can. She is always top of my list for Childcare when I need. 100% recommend !

Deborah is a lovely person and really helped us with looking after our two daughters. She usually arrives well before the given time. She gave us regular updates with messages, calls and photos, which made us comfortable.
She was very patient with our kids and she built a good relationship with them. My kids were comfortable with her too.
Specifically help her given to us at a very short notice shows her dedication to work. We highly recommend and will continue to use Deborah's excellent service.

My first time using a babysitter and I felt very much at ease after meeting Deborah for the first time and hearing about her previous childcare experiences. She was patient with my son and very nurturing and understanding towards my son’s communication needs - my son instantly appeared comfortable with her. She prioritised building a good relationship with him and was very efficient and arrived slightly earlier than the arranged time to allow for me to leave promptly. Deborah communicated with me throughout the time she was with my son, updating me on their activities together which put me at ease and he seemed to have enjoyed himself. I will definitely be using Deborah’s services again in the future and I highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking a babysitter.

Seeing as this was my first time leaving my boys with someone new considering I have my youngest who was diagnosed with ASD and often doesn’t take well to new people. Deborah was absolutely amazing. She had alot of knowledge about Autism which put me at ease. She came early to settle in with my boys. She was patient and observant and attentive. Even my oldest who is 12 had nothing but good things to say. She kept me updated about the boys throughout the evening which put me at ease. Came back to my sink being cleaned aswell which was very sweet of her.Honestly pleased with her service. Your children will be in good hands with Deborah as she demonstrates care and patience for each child as an individual. Will definitely be using her services again. Thank you Deborah!!

Despite the urgency of my request, Deborah handled the situation with absolute understanding, without any fuss or quibble. Her dedication to her work and genuine care for my son's well-being shone through, making it evident that she genuinely loves what she does.
From the moment I contacted her, she displayed exceptional flexibility, willingly accommodating my need for extended hours while I was out and This alone was a great reassurance for me as a parent.
Deborah's open communication was another standout feature of her caregiving. She kept me informed sending pics
What truly set Deborah apart was her ability to make my son feel at ease he had never stayed with anyone before and enjoyed his time and has asked to stay with her again already, to me evidencing Deborah had a natural talent for connecting with children. She created an environment that made my son comfortable, as if he was spending time with a family member rather than a hired babysitter. As a parent, this was precisely what I wanted for my child – a nurturing and familiar experience in my absence.

Deborah arrived early to her babysitting slot, armed with treats for our 18 month old. It was our first time leaving Emily, and Deborah put us completely at ease. We had regular communication/FaceTime ahead of the sit, and everything ran smoothly. Thank you sooo much to Deborah - we will definitely be using her services again x

It’s our first time ever leaving our 8months old with a babysitter sister. We was a bit sceptical but when she arrived we felt at ease as she immediately connects with the baby. She kept us updated all through, was very friendly and did an amazing job with the baby. Thank you Deborah!

Deborah was the first external person we have ever had to look after our girls, she looked after our 2 girls aged 2 & 4 so we could have a day date.
She's great with communication leading up to the day (she's highly professional) and has a gentle & caring way with kids. She was really good with our girls and kept updating us with pics of the girls and updates. We loved Deborah and our girls took to her well.

Thank you so much Deborah & we look forward to seeing you again soon x

Deborah took care of our 17-month-old for us to go on a night out. She was always great at staying in touch and we had an introduction with our son beforehand to see if she would be the right fit. Our son was naturally drawn to her and Deborah always made us feel reassured and confident to leave him with her. I would definitely recommend her!

Deborah agreed to babysit our 1 year old In our hotel room while we enjoyed a family wedding. She communicated fantastically in the lead up to the day and really helped put us at ease. She arrived early on the day, and was professional throughout. She completed our night routine with the baby and kept us informed throughout.
Excellent service from a really lovely babysitter. Would not hesitate to recommend Deborah.

We got stuck without a babysitter on Saturday and connected with Deborah at short notice. She was a great find!
She arrived not on time but early to ensure we could leave on time, listened carefully to inhaler instructions and then after we left proceeded to have fun with the kids getting them to have a singing competition etc before putting them to bed. She did the dishes and cleaned up after I had given the kids popcorn.
Our kids are 9 and 6 and reasonably straightforward as far as babysitting goes.
Has a kind nature and a lovely person.

We’ll be using the lovely Deborah again.

Deborah looks after our 2 boys (2yrs and 8months) on some ad hoc evenings. She is very warm and friendly with the boys and put us at ease when we are leaving. She is proactive and engages well with tasks. Her gentle and kind nature works well with the boys and we return to a calm, peaceful household with contented, sleeping children.

My friend and I had a night out and Deborah took care of our 2 babies.
Gio is 1,3 yo and Morena is 3 months old only.

She arrived about 2 hours earlier for the setting in which she already made Morena sleep.
She managed to deal with both babies and when we returned they were sleeping.
She followed all our instructions, updated us frequently and gave lots of love and cuddles to our baby girls.

We strongly recommend her.

Deborah is lovely. She kept me at ease whilst my son was in her care (as I was anxious to leave him) by sending me pictures and videos and keeping me up to date with his progress throughout the day.

Andre warmed to her straightaway as she embraced him with smiles and entertainment. She also ensured that he had a nutritious diet by preparing him a variety of foods and home made snacks.

I appreciate the fact that Deborah is punctual as my shifts started really early. He was still as clean as he was when I left him which showed that Deborah attended to him well.

I would recommend Deborah because she gives her all and she has a genuine passion/love for kids.

Thanks babe!! Xx

Deborah worked for us as a nanny from Sep – Oct 18 providing both morning and afterschool care for my three year old son whilst he started a new pre-school.
She is incredibly warm and friendly and bonded naturally with my son. She is reliable, punctual and flexible, and understood our needs as two full-time working parents. Communication was open and she quickly adapted to any feedback points.
Whilst she was with us she completed a Paediatric first aid course.
I felt completely comfortable with my son being in Deborah’s care and have no hesitation in recommending her for a similar role in the future. She finished her work here when I started maternity leave, but I would happily employ her again.
