We understand the importance of language development in a child’s early years and we recruit candidates who share the same ethos. We understand that the roles of a Nanny, a Nanny-Housekeeper and a Housekeeper are very different.

Invoiced for service never received - failure to return funds
We used Little Ones to find a nanny/housekeeper. The process appeared to be going well. In November 2025, we found someone we liked, offered her the position (to start in Jan 2026) and Little Ones invoiced us for their services (nearly £7,000), which we duly paid. Only upon communicating very shortly before her start date with the new nanny did she tell us that she had informed Little Ones, in late November 2025, that she could not take up the position. She provided a written record of this communication. I complained to Little Ones immediately upon this discovery, in December 2025. As of 14 January 2026, I am still waiting for a refund of the nearly £7,000 paid for the role they never secured. I feel that not only have Little Ones lied and obfuscated about the fact that, despite knowing the nanny could not proceed, they nevertheless charged me for their apparent services, but they are now fobbing me off with pathetic excuses about "refund process". They have had our money now for over 6 weeks when they should never have invoiced for it. Needless to say, I shall never use them again and suggest you avoid them like the plague for the fraudulent and dishonest behaviour they have displayed to me.
In response to the communication below from James Ross, I have been in communication with you since late December 2025 and you still fail to provide any reason why either you took the money in the first place (incompetence is all I can surmise) nor why you continue to withhold our monies which you have now had for more than 6 weeks. Please answer those questions.

Thank you Little Ones
Little Ones response time to my application was swift. I had an interview with the lovely Breeya who talked me through the process of joining and what to expect. She listened to my expectations for a job and was able to find me one within 2months of being with the company. Many thanks !
Terrible agency!
To avoid! They call you every day and are always available until you pay the fees but if you have any questions or issues once the payment is don then they don’t reply to your messages nor even to your calls!
I had a first nanny with fake references and totally unreliable in terms of attendance who resigned after 4 months claiming she was unwell but later found out she is a ticktocker and just wanted to apply for a master in LA. We also had a few safety incidents with her which made me quite relieved when she resigned.
Her replacement seemed great, unfortunately even less reliable than her in terms of attendance and with a “I don’t care” attitude that was out of this world.
After this, they were so “kind” to grant me a second replacement even though you are only allowed once, but after one interview which was not successful and one CV shared that was not in line with our need, they went MIA. It’s been now two months and we have no replacement yet and no news from them.

Whilst looking for a nannying job
Whilst looking for a job, the whole process was smooth and reassuring for start to finish. I felt supported and the communication was great. Special mention to Rob, thanks for all your help!

This agency took a substantial fee to find a nanny for our child. After a serious safeguarding incident involving facial bruising, the agency acknowledged the issue and agreed to provide a replacement instead of a refund.
The replacement search was poorly handled, unsuitable candidates were sent, and the search was later closed without discussion. After more than a year of silence, the agency now denies the agreement entirely, citing missing records and staff turnover.
Families should exercise extreme caution before paying large fees to this company. Proper vetting, safeguarding, and accountability appear to be lacking. We are now pursuing recovery of our fees legally. Please stay away

Thanks to Little ones, they help me find a position as a nanny in Paris. Noémie was really nice, helpful, understanding and easy to contact when needed.

Extremely Unprofessional Experience
TLDR: Don't write any of the agents a positive review until they have secured a job for you.
First person I was put with, Matthew, ghosted me in a way that left me in complete shock. He interviewed me and seemed really nice, then asked me to write a review of him, saying his company was doing a contest where each employee had 24 hours to get as many reviews as they could. I was in a different time zone and so didn't see the message for a long time, but wrote him a great review, which he thanked me for, but after that, the ghosting started. Not responding to me for a couple weeks at a time, not wanting to get my DBS check started, etc. It was hard not to feel that he had just wanted a great review (maybe they get bonuses if they get the most positive reviews?) When I confronted him about it, he said he'd been 'away' and then pretty much completely ghosted me. I couldn't believe it!
I have worked with many agencies and always had great relationships with them, loving how efficient, responsive, and skilled at finding compatible families they have been. Some positive experiences in the past: Pavilion Agency in NYC, SmartSitting in NYC and Los Angeles, and The Lighthouse Agency in Berlin. Luckily I found an amazing job at a school on my own, which is why I can write this review.
Second person I was put with was extremely kind but still didn't get one interview, which is a little odd because I've been a nanny for 10 years. I understand, though, that the nanny market is tough during this economic downturn. But when I posted on Facebook, I immediately got interviews. It's hard for me to not think that this company mostly just wants people to sign up for the various courses they offer.

Steer clear.
I initially began speaking with this agency but nothing came to fruition.
They contacted me again trying to pair me for a job then ghosted me for 3 weeks. When I brought this up I was called out for ‘ghosting’ them when we were only ever trying to set a phone call up.
Reminded them that they reached out to me not the other way round. I feel like I was contacted and ghosted for some sort of revenge.
I have heard nothing but bad things from this agency and should have listened.

Maternity nurse LHAMO
I applied for a role through the agency little ones uk , and Laurane contacted me quickly. She carefully reviewed my CV and understood my experience as a Maternity Nurse.
✅ Interview — L. then interviewed me, and it was very easy-going and comfortable. She created a friendly and relaxed atmosphere while still keeping the conversation professional, which made the interview feel natural and stress-free 🌟

Jack was absolutely incredible during my job search. He took the time to really understand what I was looking for, and it showed in every step of the process. Jack was professional, attentive and patient, no matter how many questions I had, he answered each one clearly and kindly.
His support made the entire experience smoother and less stressful. You can tell he genuinely cares about the people he works with and that made all the difference. I truly appreciate his guidance and dedication, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who listens, understands, and goes above and beyond.

Exceptional Agency
Dear Little Team, I want to share my impression of you. You are a very friendly agency to me. I have been working with you for many years, and I am always full of admiration for your professional and exceptional work. You are incredible in your quick handling of employee-client contact, without excessive bureaucracy. Your support is always perfect, answering questions and giving me tips. I feel that you are committed to and understanding of the staff you work with. This time I want to thank… Shanice Meunier for her incredible professionalism and the organization she has. I think managers should be proud to have someone like her on the team. I wish Shanice much success in the future. Thankful Barbara
