Ciara recently looked after my little one (1 year old) for one week . She is the first person to look after my son (other than myself & my husband) so this was a very big deal. In our initial meet and greet she brought with her homemade playdough for our little one as as way to get him interested. She was great at following my son's day to day schedule, asked questions when she was unsure, is super friendly and lovely to have around. Ciara is a great communicator - she keeps you well informed throughout the day, pin drops you when ever she leaves the house with your child, sends a recap at the end of the day and takes the BEST photos. The real proof was in the pudding when at the end of each day my son would be sad to see her go. I highly recommend Ciara.
