Luz has been amazing with our little one. She engaged him in a range of activities based on his interests. Our little one learned through play and had plenty of laughs. Definitely recommend

Thank you Tabatha for baby sitting my son . I was very anxious leaving him for the first time with a stranger but Tabatha had it all covered! It was unfortunate that my son was not feeling well. My son woke up in the middle of the night after a big vomit. She changed his clothes and his cot sheet and put him back to sleep with no issue. I was going to go straight home but Tab reassured me that he was fine and I managed to continue to enjoy my night out with my husband. I highly recommend Tabatha, she's reliable, she always responds back to my msgs right away, amazing with my son and just genuinely a beautiful caring person and plus she's qualified! Thank you for letting us enjoy our night out for the first time in so long!

Hannah was fantastic with our three young kids. Our youngest two often get quite upset when a babysitter arrives but Hannah very quickly put them at ease and made it very easy for us to get out and enjoy our evening. Will be back in touch whenever we're back in Melbourne.
