We adored Jennifer. She was instantly warm and put us at ease right away. Her profile and reviews stood out from the others on the platform, and she more than lived up to them. We needed childcare for our 6-month-old baby boy during an 8-hour day while we attended a corporate event, which felt like a big step as we had never left him for more than a couple of hours before. Jennifer was fast to respond and spoke with me in advance, which really calmed my nerves. We spent some time together as a family at the start so everyone could get familiar, then she cared for him beautifully on her own. Our baby has been exclusively breastfed with just a little formula and is a notoriously fussy napper, but she handled both feeding and nap times with such confidence. She has a wonderful natural touch and our baby warmed to her straight away. She gave our baby her full attention, kept him happy all day, and sent thoughtful updates on WhatsApp, which was so reassuring. What mattered most was that our baby was calm and cheerful afterwards — it reassured me that he had felt secure and well cared for throughout the day. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands and would book Jennifer again.
