Colin babysat our 8 month old twin boys one Friday evening, when we had our first night out sans kids in months.

He has a gentle, calming approach which I really appreciate (doesn’t overexcite them), and it was clear the boys felt very comfortable with him. The boys are mobile and too young to listen, so managing them was no mean feat!

In addition to looking after them while they played, Colin also changed and bottle-fed them, and put the boys to bed. He also let us know how the boys were doing as the night went on, which was really great.

This was the first time Colin had looked after our children, but he took such wonderful care of them that we’re already planning our next outing!
