Ruby was prompt, reliable and friendly. My son said she was great and I would happily have her sit again.

Jessica D .       March 2023

Ruby was booked last minute as our baby sitter canceled on us. She was very fast at responding and arrived on time.

Stayed in contact with us during our night out and also got home to a clean kitchen which was very nice

Kate S .       March 2023

Nadia A .       March 2023

Ruby was great, the girls were immediately comfortable around her and she was very professional.

Danielle R .       February 2023

Ruby was great. This was our first time using a babysitter that wasn't a family member, for our 1 and 3 year old. We came home to both babies fed, bathed and in bed asleep and Ruby even packed up the toys and washed up the dishes. The kids warmed to her quickly and she handled our clingy 1 year old with care and calm. I will hire Ruby again!

Ben B .       February 2023

On time and easy going… and not fussed that I was a bit late home.

Bithia O .       July 2022

We were travelling as a family,staying in a small and basic hotel and I took my older children out to see the Harry Potter show. Ruby was prompt at replying to all my messages. She happily provided ID on meeting and was even able to come early at very short notice. She arrived on time and prepared with games and ideas. My 6 year old warmed immediately to her simple kindness and there were no tears or separation anxiety. She responded quickly via text during the intermission to assure me all was well. I arrived home to a sleeping child and she had even tidied up !
I would recommend Ruby and wish her all the best.

Nicole G .       July 2022

Ruby was amazing, she was patient with our 17 month old and allowed him to warm up to her until he absolutely loved her. She even did housework and was very caring towards our son and was extremely patient with us being nervous with our first time hiring a babysitter.
