I would recommend in a heartbeat!
I booked gilly’s helping hands to help my partner and I enjoy my sisters wedding. Sara did just that my children took to her straight away, we wanted our 3 children to have fun at the wedding but have an extra set of eyes. Sara was constantly on the go with the children and went by how I wanted the day to go. She couldn’t have been better I would recommend in a heartbeat! We even had a family emergency and Sara even stayed late while I helped with that she really went above and beyond!

we would highly recommend Gillys
We booked Gilly and her team to look after the seven children attending our wedding recently at Sandycove Hotel, Ilfracombe. Gilly and Karen were extremely attentive to the children all day, they had activities supplied for the crèche and the children were kept busy all day. The parents were able to relax and enjoy themselves and the children were really happy. Overall we were extremely happy with the crèche service and we would highly recommend Gillys helping hands for your wedding/other. Thank

I would definitely use Gilly again
Gilly looked after our 19th month old for a day and evening while we attended a wedding at Tunnels Beaches. She was fantastic with him - brought toys and books, took him to the beach to play, and had him in bed, asleep and settled at the appropriate time. He couldn’t stop talking about her the next day! She sent regular updates so we didn’t need to worry. I would definitely use Gilly again, and recommend her to others!

Thank you Gilly, we would really recommend
Gilly looked after our 8 month old son along with a friends 4 month old baby all day and evening whilst we were at a wedding, she made us feel so at ease and we were able to enjoy the day even more knowing our son was being looking after by Gilly. He was put to bed in our room and he slept very well so he must have had a great time! Thank you Gilly, we would really recommend your service to anyone needing childcare at an event/wedding.

it was the best decision we made!
Gilly looked after our 6month old whilst at our wedding and it was the best decision we made! We felt relaxed all day knowing our little boy was happy and chilled out away from all the madness & noise of a wedding. She took him to our accommodation, put him to bed and sent us a picture of him asleep to put us at ease! Thank you Gilly - 🌟

The children had a wonderful time
We recently hired Gilly’s Helping Hands to provide a mobile crèche at our wedding at Tawstock Court and were absolutely blown away by the service we received. Gilly came highly recommended to me, but by the time I got in contact to enquire about the crèche, she was already unavailable. However Gilly went above and beyond and managed to organise staff to cover the event. The children had a wonderful time, and their parents were all very pleased with both the ladies and set up
