Oscar & Owl Babysitting

I have used Oscar and Owl on a number of occasions and have been so impressed with every babysitter sent by them. I have three children aged 5, 8 and 10 and they have all been very happy in the company of the babysitters. On returning home the house is always in a much neater and tidier state than I left it which is also a real help! I would definitely recommend Oscar and Owl for any babysitting needs you have whether it's during the day, taking the children to the park or being at home or putting them to bed in the evening. I have found them to be friendly, reliable and trustworthy.

Excellent service and lovely babysitters

The service we've received from Oscar & Owl has been faultless. Not only was the booking process quick and easy, but on both occasions the babysitters they have provided have been lovely people who our three children warmed to very quickly. I would definitely recommend this company.

Oscar & Owl babysitter - capable and trusted

I needed a babysitter at short notice. I was slightly nervous about leaving my toddler with an unfamiliar person. Oscar & Owl were brilliant. They arranged for Dagmar to come to the venue I was at to look after Edward for the day. Dagmar herself was outstanding. She engaged totally and straightaway with Edward, playing with him, having fun. He responded and was happy to go with her. She looked after his every need. I felt confident leaving him with her and was able to do what I needed to do. He returned very happy, fed and nappy changed. I highly recommend both Dagmar and Oscar & Owl. I have no reservations based on my experience.

O&O are great

O&O are great. Good sitters. We had Lucia several times and our son warmed to her immediately and together that had lots of fun while we were out. Would recommend to anyone.
