"It is with great pleasure to talk about our experience with Lisa. We were introduced to Lisa through friends of ours to take care of our newborn second child, Banjo. Lisa was without doubt the greatest source of care for Banjo, and guidance and support for both Anna and I as parents. We had our first son in childcare from a very early age, so we fumbled our way through that time. With Lisa taking care of Banjo, she instilled confidence and knowledge in us- from everything to sleep times, to feeding, to keeping a good schedule for him. It was such a joy and of great comfort to us to know that Banjo was under her amazing care whilst we were at work. We wished we had known Lisa earlier so she could of taken care of our first son. In a sense it was a sad day when Banjo was old enough for the next phase of his life but we consider ourselves very lucky that he was given such a magical start to his life. Today, Banjo goes to childcare and is a social and happy boy. We feel this is due to his strong to start to life under Lisa’s care from her laying the foundations in his first year of life."

"Lisa looked after our third child Daisy one day a week from when she was around 2 months old until 1 year.  She was an expert at all things “baby” - From settling techniques to feeding tips, routines (and when not to worry about lack of routines), and helping with the transition from milk to solids.  She was also an amazing support to me as a parent, offering positivity, suggestions and kind praise at every turn.  We have had such a joyful time with Daisy over the first year of her life and following and I attribute that to the advice and care offered by Lisa.  I would (and have) highly recommend her to anyone embarking on the joys of parenting."

Michaela, Clovelly

"In the midst of the pandemic, with no family around us, after a bumpy delivery and with a sick bub, Lisa was nothing short of a village in one incredible woman. She visited us weekly from when our bub was 6 weeks old until one of the lockdowns hit. Lisa has a unique ability to adapt to the household’s vibe, and meet you where you’re at. She instantly picked up our daughter’s routine, shared detailed notes and pics of their time together, and would transform the day — all with her signature lightness and expertise. Lisa offered guidance on challenging digestive issues, and how to navigate sleep routines and settling. While in the thick of our fourth trimester, Lisa gave me the gift of being able to leave the flat knowing our baby was in the best of hands. Those pockets of me-time were a game changer! I look back even more grateful, and hopeful we’ll have Lisa’s beautiful support for our second baby."

Maddie, Queens Park

"Lisa started with us not long after our third child was born and came weekly for almost 18 months. Having such a busy household, I was looking for someone who was comfortable with newborns and could just hit the ground running. Lisa was exactly the kind of person I was looking for, she fitted right in like we'd known her forever. Not only was she an incredible help with my newborn but she is calm, attentive and was an incredible support for me as a busy mum. She provided advice or a hug when needed and made me feel like I had someone who understood how challenging those first months are. Lisa and my little one had such a lovely bond and my two older children adore her."

Sarah, Clovelly

"We had the good fortune of meeting Lisa in January 2023 and she spent the next 14 months caring for our then 3 month old son, Sebastian. The care, love and support Lisa showed Sebastian, was every parents dream. I felt confident and calm when Sebastian was in her care, her experience and knowledge meant that she helped us navigate everything from reflux, to sleep regressions and everything in between. Sebastian adored his time with Lisa, where he had fun days filled with tummy time, walks, singing, chatting, baths and lots of tasting new foods. Time with Lisa in his early years, meant Sebastian was set up for success when he transitioned to daycare. I couldn't recommend Lisa highly enough, she consistently went above and beyond and we sorely miss her."

Stephanie & Andrew, DARLINGHURST

"Lisa Murdoch has assisted my family with nannying and maternal health services since February 2022. Lisa not only provided brilliant nannying care for our son but also invaluable advice to my husband and me. This is our first baby, and we were incredibly overwhelmed when we first met Lisa as I was returning to full time work with a 4-month-old son who was having issues with sleeping and digestion. Lisa provided us with great, practical advice that honestly really worked, and it enabled us to get into a much more effective and sustainable routine with our son. Our son was so much more settled and happier after we implemented these small but crucial changes to his routine. This meant I could confidently return to work, and my husband could confidently look after our son when I was out of the house. Lisa is still assisting us monthly as we navigate through the challenges of raising our first child whilst both working full time and we honestly don't know what we would do without the care and advice she has provided us since we've known her. I would highly recommend Lisa to any other mother/family. Our son absolutely adores her and so do we."
