“Littleones made the daunting process of finding our first nanny very easy and straight forward. From the initial meeting, to sending through CV's of candidates and following up after interviews, a friendly and professional yet laid back approach was displayed which we liked and appreciated. Our questions and emails were always promptly answered which allowed us to make decisions at the pace we wanted to. All candidates were of an excellent calibre and we are very happy with the Nanny we have employed. More importantly, our daughter Molly is happy with her too! They have bonded well and the first shoots of a long and happy relationship are already starting to show through.”
– Paul Seagar, London
“Thank you for your note and all your help. You were extremely supportive and I really enjoyed our dialogue. I really hope that all will be well with Sophia and that I do not need another nanny for at least two to three years! Of course, I will recommend you highly, should I know of a contact in need of a highly committed nanny agency. Thank you once more.”
– Isabella Hyde, London
