Our happy customers have a lot to say about our products and services!
Holly clearly cares very much about the standard and quality of service she provides and we are really grateful to her and her team for a very effective and essentially painfree process.

2016It couldn’t have worked out better with our two wonderful Event nannies. The children had a whale of a time exploring the grounds and doing craft activities based on the sculptures there. Thank you so much for putting the children at ease, engaging them so well and setting them up for a fantastic fun filled day, Janine and Tracy!
Here’s a fantastic photo by Ann Aveyard of them all setting off for their adventure together.

2020We were traveling from the US and used their hotel nanny service to look after our children while we attended the all-day wedding of a family member. It was our first time using a service like this and we (and our kids) were very apprehensive about it, but both Holly and our assigned nanny were very professional and communicative from start to finish. Our booking was confirmed within no more than an hour or two after submitting the inquiry, and our nanny reached out immediately via text to introduce herself and had a video call with us and the children the day prior. She was very personable, well qualified, and came prepared with a great plan for the day’s activities, including an outing to a museum and baking cookies. She kept us updated with texts and photos throughout the day, which helped us feel at ease and able to enjoy the wedding feeling confident that the children were in excellent hands and having at least as much fun as much as we were. Would 100% recommend and would not hesitate to call them should we ever find ourselves in Exeter again!

2015We have used The Parent & Child Nanny agency for the last 4 years. Initially Holly found us our full time Nanny who has been excellent, and is still with us. Since then we have used the agency to find nannies to cover annual leave. Without exception Holly has always sent me wonderful nannies who have been fully vetted, are professional, trustworthy and fit into our busy family life. I have no hesitation in highly recommending the agency.

2019We used The Parent & Child Nanny agency to hire a nanny to look after our 9 month old for our wedding reception and it could not have gone better! The nanny was simply amazing!! We barely even knew she was there and our little one absolutely loved her. She fitted right in, looking after our daughter and keeping her entertained whilst still keeping a very close eye when family members wanted a cuddle so they didn’t miss out. I honestly cannot recommend this company enough – we didn’t need to worry all afternoon /evening, and I would happily have paid double for the fantastic service we had!

2019We had a great experience with the agency. We needed a childcarer at very short notice to look after 4 boys whilst we attended our fathers funeral away from home. Holly was super helpful, and the service received was a high standard. The nanny herself was super and we completely had the stress taken away from us. Would definitely recommend.
