Rasheeda R. Rita cared for our 1 yeard old for roughly 5 months and was amazing. Puntual, polite and caring in carrying out her responsibilities which includedm nappy changes, feeds and play. Our little good loved her and we were sad to see her go. She would be an asset to any family!

Martin L. We were incredibly lucky to have connected with Rea. She was very responsive, easy to communicate with and was reliable, and great with the kids. Rea gave us comfort from the moment we swapped messages and even more when we spoke to her on the phone and even more when we meet her. We have no issues recommending Rea and will certainly use her in the future when we are in London.
