Finding Gayle to support our household throughout lockdown and over the summer was a total lifesaver.
Gayle integrated into our household with total ease, and our daughter warmed to her very quickly building a lovely bond. Gayle was full of fun and encourage learning. She always had lots of things to do and made everyday interesting.
We’d had lots of feeding issues with our daughter and Gayle really helped with encouraging eating and chewing and making food fun....we saw huge improvements in our daughters eating throughout this time and much of this is down to Gayle’a patience and tenacity.
Alongside our daughters wonderful care Gayle bought incredible housekeeping. She works with so much initiative, just seeing what needs to be done and doing it. Everything she did was completed to a very high standard... we’d often come in and couldn’t believe how lovely the house felt.
Overall I couldn’t recommended Gayle highly enough. She brings everything you could need from a Nanny. She became an integral part of our household and for her time with us improved our quality of life immeasurably.

Gayle has been looking after our two children, ages 1 and 3, while my partner and I continued in our healthcare roles. Gayle was punctual, reliable and had fun with our children which allowed me to work from home in a mental health role - thank you Gayle!

Gayle has been a very loving and caring Nanny to our little boy. She is very professional, reliable and punctual. My boy thoroughly enjoys his time with her - singing, dancing and talking. She also comes up with lovely activities to keep him engaged throughout. I would high recommend Gayle to anyone!

Thankyou so much Hema this is lovely of you thoroughly enjoyed my time with Sidhu he is amazing x
I have known Gayle for a number of years and I have had the pleasure of her looking after my 11 month old daughter. She is caring, compassionate and extremely reliable. I feel completely comfortable and at ease with Gayle looking after my daughter knowing that her best interests are always a priority. I know my daughter is always safe in her care and experiences a wide range of activities and outings when she is with her.
Gayle provides a home from home experience for my daughter and knowing she is so happy and well looked after really puts my mind at rest.
Thoroughly recommend!
