Sarah came to us to help with our 6month olds sleep. He was waking twice a night for milk and multiple other times for a dummy or cuddles and we were exhausted!
Sarah was kind, reassuring and very experienced. She came to us for 6nights over the course of 3 weeks. She used a gentle structured approach, giving us guidance and lots of reassurance that our boy would get there…and he did! He now happily sleeps 11+hours overnight and we have our sanity back! Thank you!

As soon as we knew baby number 2 was well on the way, we got back in touch with Sarah, who supported us with our first son. Sarah helped us with nights 3 times a week - helped us establish good sleeping and eating routines, reminded us ‘how babies work’ and re-instilled confidence in our parenting (a few toddler tips too). Baby 1 slept through 10-7am at 11 weeks and baby 2 at 10 weeks. It’s not easy but it’s certainly easier with Sarah’s help! I would highly recommend it.

We engaged Sarah to help 3 nights a week with our daughter from around 4 weeks old until 3 months.
We would highly recommend Sarah - she is eminently capable, experienced and exudes quiet confidence which is so reassuring when entrusting your very young baby to someone! Our daughter has responded very well to Sarah and is very settled with her. She has put us at ease, given us the confidence that our daughter is in very safe hands overnight and enabled us to have some much needed sleep (essential with a toddler as well!)

We could not recommend Sarah highly enough – I only wish we had contacted her sooner! She is a lovely, kind, confident, calm night nanny and an expert in sleep training.
Our 9-week-old second baby was still waking every 2-3 hours each night and I desperately needed a full night’s sleep to be a good parent for both my children during the day. From the moment Sarah arrived we were confident our baby boy was in excellent hands and he was immediately settled by her. The first night Sarah stayed with us we didn’t hear him cry once and he slept until 6am. I exclusively breastfeed so left Sarah with a bottle of expressed breastmilk. We were very impressed with Sarah - she was also an absolute pleasure to have around.

Sarah helped us with our 3rd baby from 2-13 weeks and from start to finish it was such a positive experience. I had small amounts of last minute help with my first two children but never booked any help in advance for a defined period - we are so glad we did. Our baby girl was not the easiest baby and I had concerns over various allergies but Sarah was patient and sympathetic throughout and I was always so happy to see her on the nights that she came. I was exclusively breast feeding which Sarah was very supportive of, at first bringing her in for feeds through the night and then we moved on to expressed breast milk once my supply was established. Sarah and I worked together to establish a good day routine to help work towards our baby sleeping through the night before Sarah left us. Despite our baby girl being rather stubborn, Sarah left us with a baby sleeping from 7-7 at 13 weeks - with barely a cry required (and the dummy also got rid of). Sarah’s calm and consistent method is just brilliant and she is also a real pleasure to have around. Our baby girl is now 4.5 months and she has slept through the night since that time and is a very happy baby during the day. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sarah.

Sarah provided night nanny services with our 3rd son from 2 wks - 14 wks old. We could not recommend Sarah highly enough. From the second she walked through the door each night we felt a wave of calm because Sarah fills you with confidence that your baby is in the best possible hands while you are 'Off Duty'. Sarah's expertise guided us through the tricky moments of jabs and sleep training. She left us with a baby sleeping soundly through the night and offered valuable advice on day time routines. Sarah is kind, confident, discrete and highly committed to getting you back to normality as quickly as possible. You will not regret meeting Sarah!

One of the best decisions we made was having Sarah as night nurse for our new born baby girl till she was 9 weeks old. Right from the start Sarah clearly demonstrated her expertise and knowledge in handling the baby. We always found her to be caring, calm and confidant in her approach. She’s very personable as is professional – be it being punctual, having good hygiene, discipline, offering valuable advice, and generally following up on the baby’s daily routine and progress. We wish her all the best and strongly recommend her services!

Sarah helped us a few nights a week with our new baby boy for 8 weeks and was simply fabulous, a joy to meet, learn from and enabled us to get some much needed rest to be better parents in the day!
Sarah's extremely personable and wins your confidence immediately. From the minute she picked up Myles he melted in her arms and we never thought twice about her expertise in looking after him through the night. In week 8 he slept right through - the detriment of her own success!

I am writing to say how happy we were to have Sarah as a night nanny for our 8 weeks old baby boy William.
Firstly, we were really impressed how quickly she responded to my message. Within a few days we arranged an in person meeting and from the moment Sarah held William in her arms, I knew I can trust her to loom after him. She is extremely experienced and calm and confident around babies. Sarah was with us for a total period of 6 weeks and never I even heard William crying during the night. All I saw was a happy and smiley baby face at 7 am! By the time our baby boy was 8 weeks, both my partner and myself were totally sleep deprived, so Sarah was a real savior! I cannot tell you how much difference it makes to have a full night sleep and also to know that your baby is in trusted hands,
Sarah was also able to apply her expertise and experience straight away to help us build a better routine for William during the day so he could improve his sleeping at night as well.
We were so impressed with the service offered by Sarah and cannot recommend her enough!

We couldn't have asked for a better night nurse than Sarah. Not only was Sarah extremely professional throughout her time with us, she was terrific with our new born daughter.
Sarah helped us with setting up the routine for our daughter in addition to providing us tips on how and what to do with our new born during day time. Her knowledge on new borns was very impressive which was visible in how effortlessly she handled our new born.
We are really grateful to Sarah for all her help and wouldn't have been able to do without her during the initial weeks of our new born...

Following the birth of our second child, Sarah worked with our family for 8 weeks and in that time was very caring and professional. With sound advice, she has helped us establish a realistic routine and I would highly recommend her.

Sarah is fantastic, there is no other way to describe her! She has a natural maternal air about her. She is very knowledgeable, listens to your concerns, and offers excellent practical advice. Sarah helped us with our son from 1 week old, and has helped us to establish a realistic routine, which really works.
Reliable, professional, conscientious, discreet like a fairy godmother with a magic wand. I cannot recommend her more highly.

Sarah helped us with our newborn daughter a couple of nights a week during the first few weeks. Her help was invaluable in helping us have some rest and ensuring she was sleeping and feeding properly. Sarah is very personable, reliable, punctual, trustworthy and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a maternity nurse.

Sarah walked into our house and instantly made me feel that my baby would be safe and in good hands. Sarah oozes confidence and love for babies in a very professional manor. It was always lovely to know we were seeing Sarah and we could have a full nights sleep knowing that our baby was in wonderful care. I can't recommend Sarah more highly - I'm only sorry that my daughter is now sleeping through the night so we can't justify having Sarah anymore! We will miss her but should we ever have a third baby we know who to call :-) thank you Sarah x

Sarah was wonderful with my daughter and worked with us from 1 week old. She helped me to establish an excellent routine which I'm still following now. I would recommend her to anyone. As well as being professional she is warm and friendly and I always looked forward to her coming, especially in the early days when things were quite tough.

We have had Sarah helping us for nights from when our baby was first born for seven weeks. She was absolutely fabulous with our little boy and we felt really comfortable with letting Sarah help with our new bundle. Sarah was always able to get the best sleep out of our boy and he is now sleeping really well at 9 weeks. We are so pleased for the time we had with Sarah and imagine she is now helping the next family to get some much needed rest. She is very reliable, helpful and personable. I have no hesitation in recommending Sarah as a night nanny.

We hire Sarah to help after almost 10 weeks of exhaustion looking after a 6 week premature baby. It was the best decision we ever made. Having had help from friends and family, nothing would compare to the help and advice from the years of experience Sarah had to offer.
She arrived on time and was very professional and discreet. She immediately put my wife at ease and help us to put our newborn down in his crib for the first time since he was born. The whole night went smoothly and we did not hear a single cry. By the morning we awoke refreshed and with some more confidence and with a child who would finally sleep in a crib and not just our arms.
Her feeding and sleeping advice was invaluable. We will definitely be using again in the future whenever we need a night off.
