"I will never forget my interview with Consultus... all the friendly faces and kindness you have shown me... I want to use this opportunity to tell you how much I appreciate everything you did for me during my stay in the UK. I really enjoyed every moment and miss [my clients] already. I intend to be back in December... I hope I can still be of assistance."

"I looked after F.H. for 10 days. It was my first booking and I thoroughly enjoyed it. They are a lovely family and I felt part of the family. It was a great experience... You and Consultus are great and I am telling my friends about this friendly agency."

"Thank you for your help and your warm reception. Consultus is a friendly and professional organisation - a pleasure to be associated with."
