Babysitter needed for a friend visiting London

Hi all

My friend is visiting London with family including her two little ones end of March and she is looking for a reliable and recommended Babysitter for one evening whilst her husband and her go out for dinner.
They will be based in Notting Hill so not exactly local but I was hoping someone could recommend someone or an agency?

Thanks!!

Likeminders babysitting agency will almost certainly be able to sort you out - you can make a one off booking without being a member, you just pay a higher rate. They are all vetted and you get a profile for your sitter but obviously it's not a sitter known to you if it's a one off. Have used them at short notice and been very happy.

We regularly use Likeminders, and I have always been pleased with the quality of the sitters they send out. We have had everything from maternity nurses to medical students and full time nannies.
I had a friend who came to London for work for 2 weeks, and they found a professional nanny to look after her 4 year old little girl. She was excellent.
I highly recommend!
