Colin is an excellent nanny to our two toddlers. He is part of our family now. The children get on really well with him and those who see them out and about always comment how good Colin is with them.
Our eldest has medical needs and Colin includes the treatments in the day to day activities, particularly when our youngest is asleep.
He has endless patience and always gives the children his full attention and comes up with some great activities that they really enjoy.
We would highly recommend Colin to anyone!

Thanks for the review and for making me feel part of the family. I really enjoy coming to look after the children.
Colin had been baby sitting for our now 2 year old for a while and is amazing. Always very helpful putting the little one to bed while we eat and thoughtful keeping us informed throughout the night. Colin is obviously very caring and passionate about working with children and this can be seen with how he interacts
We’ll definitely be continuing to use Colin

Thanks for the lovely review. I enjoy coming to babysit for you.
Colin had previously babysat our twin boys and hadn’t seen them for a while as we got used to going out less following the arrival of our youngest boy.
Despite this, our elder boys immediately felt comfortable with him and began babbling about ‘Colin’ despite the fact they weren’t even verbal last time he met them. This is a testament to how relaxed he makes children feel
Our youngest baby isn’t as used to strangers, but Colin doesn’t let that phase him and remains a calm and relaxing presence
I would highly recommend Colin to parents needing a night off from the kids!

Thank you for another lovely review. I enjoy coming to look after the boys.
Colin has been babysitting for our boys (1.5 years and 5 years) for almost a year now and we’ve been very happy with him. He is always quick to respond to queries about his availability, comes on time, keeps us informed throughout the evening, and is able to put even our little one to sleep, which is a miracle. We are very happy with him.

Thank you very much for the lovely review and for making me welcome. I look forward to continuing to babysit for you.
From the moment we first met Colin he was affable, dependable and calm.
Colin is quick to respond to any requests for babysitting and our girls (1 and 5), bonded with him almost instantly. He will voluntarily ally any concerns with regular updates via text, which really enriches the time spend away.
In essence, his caring nature and attention to detail make him highly recommended from us.

Thank you for the lovely review. I look forward to coming again.
Colin has babysat for our 2 boys consistently for a year now - he is key to our social life! He’s always very good with the boys (now age 1 and 3) and we feel comfortable leaving him to put them to bed. He always keeps us updated and we’ve not had any issues whilst we’ve been out so it means we can really relax, especially as he has so much experience working with children in his role at a nursery.

Thank you for the lovely review. I enjoy coming to look after the boys.
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!

Just perfect. Colin made us feel completely secure, he is the first baby sitter we have ever used. He made us feel reassured from the get go and then upon meeting him, even more so. He is a calm, collected person with a great attitude, training and experience. We have only used him once so far but will definitely be using him as often as possible.

Thank you for the review and for making me feel welcome. I enjoyed looking after Archie and look forward to coming again.
Colin babysat for our 2 sons (age 2 and 7 months) - in particular the elder one is very shy with new people but Colin was great at making him feel comfortable with his experience of working at a nursery really coming into play. We felt at ease leaving him with the children as he clearly has a wealth of experience. We will definitely ask Colin to babysit for us again.
