The experience was absolutely appalling, my child cried the whole way home, the cleanliness was really bad, my child had not received any food all day. When I attempted to address this matter i was confronted back with disrespectful behaviour. Would not recommend. STAY AWAY
Vicky has babysat our 2 children several times now. We needed a babysitter for a number of weeks at very short notice, and she very promptly offered her services. She brings so much energy and immediately got along with the kids. She also got our 2-year-old to actually eat his dinner without fussing like he normally does. Thank you Vicky x
Both my kids have made major improvement’s since Natalie’s involvement they have settled so well with Natalie and always look forward to learning with her.
We are so happy with her teaching methods she makes it fun and has a lot of patience. I would highly recommend Natalie . AMAZING
We feel so grateful to have had Humayra caring for our three children (ages 7, 3, and newborn). She is warm, patient, and truly attentive to each child’s unique needs. She kept our 7-year-old engaged with creative and educational activities, matched our 3-year-old’s energy with fun, hands-on play, and cared for our newborn with incredible gentleness and love.
Humayra is dependable, safety-conscious, and communicates clearly, which gave us complete peace of mind. She creates a structured, positive, and nurturing environment, and we highly recommend her to any family looking for someone trustworthy and dedicated.

Daisy looked after my son from age 1 to 3, and he absolutely adored her. He’d light up every time he was seeing her and Rudy. She’s so warm, friendly, and calm; the days were full of fun, laughter, and zero stress.
He ate well, napped happily, and came home content every time. For me, it was such a relief knowing he was with someone who truly cared. I never once worried about how he was doing, Her communication was fantastic and she always sent updates and made everything feel easy.
The handover always felt seamless and never rushed.
She’s a fantastic Nanny. Thank you, Daisy!

My 10-month-old son has been attending Danielle’s for the past two months, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with our experience. From the very beginning, Danielle settled him so quickly and naturally. As any parent knows, leaving your baby is a huge step, but she made the whole transition feel easy and reassuring. It’s clear how kind and loving she is, and how genuinely invested she is in the children she cares for. She is amazing with children — patient, nurturing, and so attentive to their individual needs. My son is always happy to see her, which says everything. Danielle is also a fantastic communicator. She keeps me updated, is always easy to talk to, and makes me feel completely comfortable discussing anything. Danielle is truly incredible at what she does. I feel so lucky that my son is in her care and would recommend her without hesitation to any parent looking for someone caring, trustworthy, and exceptional.
Mehwish has been absolutely wonderful with my children. From the very first day, she was warm, welcoming and genuinely caring. She takes the time to understand each child’s individual needs and ensures they feel safe, comfortable and happy in her care.
My kids truly enjoyed their time with her and always came home relaxed and cheerful, which gave me great peace of mind. It is clear that she doesn’t just “childmind”she really cares about the children she looks after.
I am very grateful for the support she provided. I highly recommend Mehwish to any parent looking for a kind, attentive and reliable

My experience at Little Oasis Nursery has been a positive one. The setting is warm, organised and child centred. Both of my children settled in quickly and continue to feel safe and valued.
The environment is calm and nurturing, with a strong focus on communication, creativity and emotional wellbeing.
Communication with parents is also always clear and professional.
I would happily recommend Little Oasis Nursery to any family looking for a caring and supportive childcare setting.
Five stars – I would give 10 if I could! Sophie is a truly down-to-earth and caring nanny. Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and the kids absolutely loved spending time with her. She made them feel comfortable, happy, and well looked after. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.
Rachel has been looking after my daughter since last September, when she was just 15 months old, and I honestly couldn’t ask for anyone better. She is incredibly caring and always pays attention to the little things. She even picked up on my daughter having an ear infection, which shows how attentive and experienced she is.
She keeps us updated all the time, which gives us so much peace of mind. My daughter clearly enjoys her time there. They go to toddler groups and do activities that have really helped her confidence and development.
I’m very grateful for the care Rachel gives to my daughter. Highly recommended.
Wida has become an absolutely essential part of the happy and healthy running of our home. From the very beginning, she has brought warmth, calm and deep professionalism into our family life.
She has built the most beautiful bond with our children — nurturing, playful, and instinctively attuned to their emotional and developmental needs. Wida doesn’t simply supervise; she truly invests in them. She thoughtfully plans age-appropriate activities, supports early learning with creativity and intention, and creates a rhythm to the day that feels both structured and joyful. Our children are safe, stimulated, and deeply cared for in her presence.
Beyond her natural warmth, Wida is exceptionally reliable, organised and proactive. She anticipates what needs doing without being asked, maintains a safe and tidy environment, and handles daily routines with ease. Her judgement is sound, her communication is clear and respectful, and she carries herself with professionalism at all times.
What sets Wida apart is her emotional intelligence. She brings patience, positivity and genuine care into our home every single day. She has supported not only our children, but our family as a whole — creating a sense of calm consistency that allows everything to run smoothly.
We trust her completely and feel incredibly fortunate to have her. Any family would be lucky to welcome Wida into their home.
Our child has been with Sarah for a little over a year now, and we could not be happier with the care she provides!
Her patience and seemingly bottomless enthusiasm has brought him out of his shell and helped build his confidence with others. We really value that Sarah takes him on adventures either to local attractions, playgroups, or for walks almost every session, which has helped to expand his horizons away from the safety net of mum and dad.
Communication is always fantastic, regular updates with pictures of their adventures, and always quick to respond to any queries.
Our little boy is certainly going to miss his time with Sarah, but she has helped him so much to get ready for the next step! Sarah is such a kind, fun, and caring person, and you can tell she genuinely enjoys getting to know the children and all of their little personalities. We could not have found a better person to provide the early years care we needed, and will always be grateful for the time and affection she has given our son.
Aniko has been looking after my daughter since April 2024, when she was only 10 months old, and I truly cannot recommend her highly enough.
She is a caring, professional and dedicated childminder who creates a warm, safe and nurturing environment. My daughter has always been very happy, well looked after and supported in her development. Aniko provides a lovely balance of learning, play and outdoor activities, and communication is excellent with regular updates and photos, which gives great peace of mind.
We feel very lucky to have found her, and I would confidently recommend her to any parent looking for outstanding childcare.
We moved to the area almost three months ago and started our son at OakGlen during what was quite a sensitive time for him. He was going through toilet training, adjusting to a new home, a new city, and suddenly everything around him was unfamiliar. As parents, we were naturally anxious about how he would cope , but we truly couldn’t have chosen a better nursery.
From day one, the team at OG have been incredibly caring, kind, and supportive. They made such a big effort to help him settle in and feel safe. We have seen such wonderful progression in him in such a short time, and that gives us enormous reassurance and happiness.
One thing we especially appreciate is the daily feedback. We are always informed about what he has been doing, how he has been feeling, what he has eaten, and the activities he has participated in. It makes us feel connected to his day and confident that he is in great hands.
The nursery provides a fantastic variety of food and snacks throughout the day, which is another big plus. The children are offered so many different activities, and I really love that they can choose what they would like to take part in based on their age group and interests.
I have also recently attended their coffee mornings where parents can join the children during activities. Seeing firsthand how much care, energy, and effort the staff put into looking after these energetic little ones was truly eye-opening. The level of dedication and organisation is impressive.
We are so grateful that we found Occlan. It has made such a positive difference for our son and for us as parents. A huge thank you to the whole team, we couldn’t be happier.

We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful childminder. Sarah has looked after our son since he was just one year old, and the care, patience and dedication she has shown have made such a positive difference to his early years. We are so pleased that she will also be looking after our daughter when she turns one – we wouldn’t hesitate for a second.
She has played a huge role in supporting our son’s development. What really stands out is the time she takes to truly understand his individual interests.
The children regularly enjoy days out to the park and to Croome Court. She also takes them to Debutots, which our son absolutely loves, as well as local playgroups.
Most importantly, she is completely trustworthy and reliable. We have always felt that our son is safe, happy and genuinely cared for in her setting. Her communication is excellent – she keeps us regularly updated on his progress and development, sharing milestones and little moments from his day.
We couldn’t recommend her more highly. She has become such an important part of our son’s early years, and we’re so grateful for the care and support she provides.

We feel incredibly lucky to have found Ellie. From the very beginning she has been warm, reassuring, and genuinely caring, which made the transition into childcare so much easier for us as first time parents. After a difficult previous childcare experience, Ellie has been an absolute breath of fresh air.
Ellie is extremely proactive and provides a varied, stimulating environment and development. She regularly takes our son to different activities, groups, and outdoor outings, giving him opportunities to explore, socialise, and learn in ways we simply couldn’t provide at home. She supports his milestones and encourages independence while always ensuring he feels safe and secure. It is clear he is happy, engaged, and thriving in her care.
Communication is excellent. We receive daily photos and a detailed log of meals, naps, activities, and nappy changes, which gives us enormous peace of mind while we are at work. Ellie is always approachable, responsive, and happy to discuss anything, which makes us feel fully informed and involved in our sons day.
Ellie’s home environment is calm, clean, and very well set up for babies/children, with plenty of safe space for play and exploration, and follows routines carefully, adapts to our sons individual needs. Most importantly, she has a natural warmth and kindness that our son responded to immediately. Our son settled quickly with her and is always calm, content, and well cared for when we collect him - a testament to the nurturing and secure environment she provides.
Ellie is organised, reliable, professional, and clearly passionate about what she does. We have complete trust in her and feel confident leaving our son in her care, knowing he is safe, happy, stimulated, and genuinely loved.
Choosing Ellie has been one of the best decisions we have made for our son and our family.

We have now had our children with Jenny for 6 months, best decision we had made!
Jenny provides a home from home environment, learn through play, home cooked meal provided daily, outings whatever the weather.
Her organisational skills are beyond most people's capability!
Our children are always happy and excited to be visiting Jenny, we feel they are safe, well cared for and couldn't ask for more!
Asma was absolutely amazing from the very first time she stayed with my son for a long day. My boy can be quite challenging, but she put him at ease immediately and he loved her from the start. She is punctual, professional, attentive to every detail, and truly puts her heart into caring for children. I felt completely calm while she was with him thanks to her thoughtful updates and dedication. I would trust her again anytime.
