Sue was great with our boys (10,11).
Wouldn’t hesitate to book in again.
Great communication and arrived just prior to our start time for a meet and greet.

Sue was lovely with my boy and we felt in very safe hands! Will definitely book Sue again when travelling to the Sunshine Coast.

We recommend you book with Sue when needing a sitter, she is just lovely and our two boys aged 6 and 8 thought so as well.

Stevie G .       September 2022

Sue was amazing! We came up to Coolum for the weekend for a friends birthday. She babysat our kids for 2 nights and the kids loved her and when we got home they were fast asleep in bed. We will definitely use Sue again when we are next here.

Sue was fantastic with our 3 kids, happy and enthusiastic and our kids felt comfortable and loved her straight away. Thank you Sue

Emelie K .       March 2022

Sue babysat our 1 yo while we attended a friend's birthday party. We were up from Sydney for the weekend and Sue accepted our booking with short notice and was very communicative right away. We had great trust in Sue and felt very comfortable with her right away. Our son is quite shy with strangers but smiled at Sue within the first few minutes. She handled his tantrums when we left with patience and perseverance, and he had all his dinner and went to sleep around the time he usually falls asleep. Sue provided us with updates during the night (when my phone was acting up she found other ways to communicate). We felt like we had nothing to worry about! We would highly recommend Sue and will definitely lean on her again if travelling to sunny
coast.

Ian T .       February 2022

Murray E .       December 2021

Thanks Sue for looking after a herd of children. So nice to enjoy a night out without worrying about the kids. Highly recommend!

Addy I .       June 2021

Sue responded to our job so quickly that it made, what could have been a panic, such an easy process. She was welcoming, polite and confident.
Highly recommend.
Thank you.

Alex H .       May 2021

Sue was great and very professional. I was organising to whisk away my newly wed friends at the last minute and they were both very nervous about leaving their 11month with a stranger for the first time. Sue put everyone at ease and we had a lovely evening. Sue contacted laura halfway through our booking and although I couldn’t keep them out for long we had a very enjoyable evening. Thanks Sue. Laura and Drew were very impressed.

Denise G .       February 2021

My partner was very nervous about using a babysitter for the first time, but was very much out at ease after meeting sue. She arrived early, the boys (4 and 5) were very comfortable around her and they had a great evening together! Would definitely recommend Sue as a sitter and we would love to use her services again.

Julian L .       November 2020

Sue was fantastic. Arrived early and was very pleasant and chatty. We would happily recommend her sitting services. Our girls had a great time with her. Will definitely be using her services again.

Randi L .       October 2020

Sue had a big task of taking care of 7 kids while a few families were on vacation. Kids had a great time and were well taken care of.

Fintan C .       March 2020

Sue looked after our kids while we were visiting Noosa. She was early, easy to deal with and got on great with our kids. Thanks Sue.

Hannah B .       January 2020

Sue was fantastic. We were up here on holidays and wanted a babysitter while we went out for dinner for our 3.5yr old and 20month old boys . Sue was early, after a quick run down we left. The boys were upset when we left, Sue sent us a message as soon as they had calmed down.
Sue also let us know what was happening through the night and sent us a message when the the boys had gone to sleep.
After a lovely dinner out we came home to two fast asleep boys.
We highly recommend Sue and would definitely use her again.

Kelly B .       December 2019

Sue was fantastic! We needed an extra set of hands to help out with everyone’s children while we hosted lunch of 12 couples.

Sue helped wrangle everyone’s children for the day and was wonderful with every age group of children. She also helped keep everything tidy throughout the day, which made life so much easier after everyone left.

Her care and experience with children was very clear in her ability to manage a group of children ranging in ages from 2-9.

We loved having Sue help! Our children We instantly engaged with her and we will definitely use her again!!

Jarrod P .       October 2019

We had Sue look after our two boys twice while we were on holiday and she did a wonderful job of caring for them. Would highly recommend her, Jarrod & Jo.

Jarrod P .       October 2019

Sue was fantastic. Would happily recommend her sitting services. Our boys had a great time with her.

Georgie R .       September 2019

Sue was just lovely and went above and beyond for us. When our 7 month old came down with tonsillitis last minute, Sue reassured us the kids would still be fine for a short period so we could take our one opportunity to use a gift voucher out to dinner while on holidays. She did a great job balancing a sick bub and an excited little boy, even managing to get some dinner into the little one before putting her to sleep (no easy task!). Sue has a really kind, approachable nature that put the kids at ease immediately. We found her to be punctual, flexible and really helpful, and she received a glowing report from our 3 year old the next day too. Would definitely use Sue again!

Narida A .       June 2019

Sue was fantastic and our 8yo twin boys LOVED her! We required some casual babysitting whilst on holidays and Sue was very responsive and punctual. Our boys took a shine to her immediately as she chatted with them and made them feel relaxed straight away. I would highly recommend Sue and we will certainly be re-booking with her for our next holiday stay in the area.

Sue has looked after our 2 boys (4yrs and 10months) on numerous occasions. Her time management and professionalism really excels compared to who we have used in the past. The boys are both very comfortable with her company and often ask ‘when is Sue coming back to look after us?’ We highly recommend Sue.

   May 20, 2019     Personal

Sue is amazing with children and I’ve left my 2 boys with her on numerous occasions. Both boys love her company as she engages in play and creates a safe and fun environment always.

I highly recommend Sue.

Sue is one of my oldest friends. I’ve been with her as she started her family, ran her own family day care superbly and now working professionally in a care centre! She is the first person I call when I need advice, support, vent to with my own newborn son! Would completely trust her with my baby!

   May 20, 2019     Personal

We love when Sue comes to babysit because we can have a night out feeling completely comfortable knowing the kids are in great hands with Sue’s experience in the industry and being a Mum herself. The kids are always so excited for her to come and can’t wait for her to come back. I especially love coming home to the house being in order like the way we left it and now having to go around cleaning up the house after a date night! I highly recommend Sue!

Susan Chambers has been a wonderful sitter for my daughter Charlotte on several occasions. My daughter has known Susan since birth and is extremely fond of her. Susan has a warm a caring nature and has a genuine love for what she does.
Susan also cared for my daughter when she previously run a family daycare.
I would recommend Susan to any family looking for care.

I have worked with Sue within the Early Childhood industry for the past several months. She has great relationships with families and children. Sue works in partnership with families. Sue is friendly, hardworking and reliable.
Sue is child focussed and has a vast knowledge of child development.

I would highly recommend Sue, she has looked after our boys a few times now and I feel totally at ease with leaving them with her. She has plenty of experience and also has her first aid, this is vitally important to us as one of my sons has anaphylaxis, so to leave him with someone who would know what to do in this situation is of utmost importance to us. She is a very reliable and caring lady, I’m so glad we have found her

I have both worked with and been a client of Sue's. She is professional, lovely and easily connects with kids. Plus she's got the qualifications and experience to match. I'd highly recommend her service.
