I contacted Gingham Kids just 1 week before we needed a nanny to look after our 9 month old - Dee was very able to find us a lovely nanny to look after our daughter in such short notice, within hours. Throughout the process, Dee was very responsive, caring and reliable. Our nanny was simply lovely: very calm, gentle, playful, taking very good care of our daughter - I could see they had quality time together. I'll definitely recommend Gingham Kids to my friends & will return when in need of ad hoc nanny care!

Dee and her team have some super jobs. Over the years they have placed me with some amazing families and given me wonderful support. They value their candidates and take time to get to know them, always going the extra mile. Its so nice to hear such positive feedback from the families too, saying that this is the only agency they will use. Good to work with such dedicated professionals.
