Ayodele was completely brilliant with our 14-month-old. He's not usually comfortable around new people, so we were amazed at how quickly he warmed to her. She was caring and attentive, and it showed in how she handled him from the start.
She gave him time to settle in on his first day, which made such a difference.
She kept us updated on his daily activities throughout, and it was reassuring to see him play in her different settings and also have naps. I was confident that my little one was being cared for and will definitely be using her again without hesitation when the need arises.
We were lucky to find katie back in 2022, for our 8 month old daughter. We looked many settings around but Katie’s setup, attitude, flexibility and outlook suited us the most. Our little one is nearly 4.5 and has grown together with katie’s younger daughter as extended family. There has been days when our daughter has been in for 10 hours and katie has taken excellent care. At end of everyday, the little one has so much to share regarding day’s activities and new things they learned or explored etc. Our daughter is starting school in September 2026 along with few more, which is making some spaces available and i would highly recommend it to anyone in ashvale, Mychett, northcamp and farnborough area.

My daughter has been going for the 6+ months and I'm pleased. Shelley and the team are very caring, attentive and organised when it comes to her needs and wants. I've also noticed such a huge change in my daughter educational learning and communication outside the service which I hold much gratitude.
We couldn’t be happier with the care our child has received over the past few months since starting at Blossoms. Michelle has been incredibly accommodating, especially when it comes to managing our child’s dairy allergy, she goes above and beyond by providing thoughtful, home-cooked meals and snacks that we completely trust.
The setting she provides is amazing, with a warm, welcoming environment and a fantastic range of activities that keep the children engaged and happy. It’s clear how much effort and care she puts into everything she does.
Most importantly, our child absolutely loves Michelle, which says it all. The bond they’ve built is so reassuring, and it’s made a world of difference to us as parents. As a mum returning to work, she made the whole transition feel easy and far less worrying.
We truly can’t thank Michelle enough for everything she’s done so far. We honestly couldn’t imagine sending our child to anyone else.
Bryony is an amazing child minder with a wealth of knowledge in the EYFS framework. My little boy has thrived since coming to Bryony and he is so happy to go each week. She has great communication with us, along with termly meetings and updating us of his next steps. She ensures my little boy attends playgroups, the park, visits to the library and more. She adapts her environment to his needs and has appropriate activities out for him to further develop his skills. I would highly recommend using Bryony as she is friendly, professional, organised & extremely caring.

Having never had a sitter for my son before I was quite nervous, however with Nancy everything was made so smooth and easy. My son who is normally quite shy was very comfortable coming out of his shell and gets very excited for Nancy coming over. Always feel comfortable knowing my son is in safe and reliable hands, couldn’t find a more trusted person to have in my home and to take care of my son.
I was lucky enough to have Krasy look after my two children for over 6 years. My older daughter from when she was 11 months and my younger daughter has known her since she was born. She is everything you could hope for and more - she is SO good with children - SO gentle kind and caring, always took them on fun outings and classes, makes the MOST delicious food (I still miss her bolognaise!) and she truly loved them like her own. She is extremely reliable - always helpful and fitted right into our family. She really is all you would hope for with someone looking after your children and I feel so lucky that we found her. It broke my heart when my youngest went to pre school and so we didn’t need the hours she’d been doing. My daughters adore her and still speak about her most days - she is very very special and you’d be so lucky if she had any time free!
Rebecca was amazing with my son, she made lessons fun, and enjoyable. He enjoyed every lesson, it was great to see a smile on his face, but there was a serious side & importance to teach.
My son improved massively with his reading over 18 months, with Rebecca’s help & way of teaching.
I fully recommend Rebecca. 5 Stars.
Our strong willed 3 year old and teething baby settled just perfectly with Amelia. They obviously had a lot of fun and the 3 year old has already asked when she can come back! I am very happy to recommend and look forward to having Amelia work with us regularly in the future!
100% recommend. Christine, Mikey, Dan and the family become our family. She looked after my daughter like she was one of her own. She always went above and beyond to meet any needs that cropped up. My daughter loved her 3 years with Christine. If she was closer she would have stayed with her till she was 18. We still talk and meet up on a regular basis. We miss them everyday! Diolch yn fawr!
If I could give Kerryanne and the team infinite stars I would.
Our daughter Saoirse was with Kerryanne for around 2 years and we just loved her so much. We unfortunately moved quite far away and I got a new job which was the only reason we had to move our daughter, but every single day I miss them so much. I cannot begin to put into words how considerate, caring and amazing Kerryanne and her team are. They cater for every single child and what I admired about them most is how they made our daughters confident and strong personality shine, Saoirse to this day has learnt so much from being with them, all of the children there were fantastic and very nurturing to our daughter, I believe the different age ranges is so beautiful as they all learn from each other. I would never EVER feel nervous or anxious when our daughter was with Kerryanne, if I'm honest I would call her a second mummy. The environment is perfect for the children and is like a home from home, which we loved. There was a sleep room with prams, cots, you name it, however your child needs to sleep they have it covered, it was so calming and peaceful. We got regular updates throughout the day, always. From every meal our daughter ate ( which were such healthy and hearty meals, I used to make it myself but she wouldn't eat it only Kerryanne's cooking worked😂) , to new milestones hit, to achievements and so much more. It would make my day to receive photos and videos of our daughter and there was never a day she was not happy there, if anything it was a struggle to get her home because she never wanted to leave, she loved it so much. The thought and details that Kerryanne puts into her curriculum is phenomenal. She never forgets a special occasion, not even your birthday! She will always go above and beyond for you and your family. I remember we had such a beautiful personalised calendar made by our daughter as a new years gift it actually made me cry.
Me and my partner felt we could go to Kerryanne for anything, her advice and words of wisdom was so comforting, she would always reply even late at night bless her when she can shut off from work. When we left Kerryanne it was never goodbye as she still keeps in touch about Saoirse's development, even to this day, always checking in and I will always go to her for advice and reassurance as I was super nervous to put our daughter anywhere else. The team absolutely loved Saoirse like she was their own and that really always showed. If I could have even kept her there for her school years I would have!
Every day there just looks so fun and engaging when we used to get updates, there was never a dull moment, our Saoirse always struggled with sitting and was always on the move and what I loved about Kerryanne was her story time always involved the children and would always incorporate movement and dancing, which is what our Saoirse loves. On her very first day she did a beautiful welcoming song with the children for her and Saoirse just slot right in to the group, as I imagine every child they have ever cared for has done. The family are incredible and your children are such a credit to you both, they always got involved and loved the children too.
Kerryanne's knowledge with children is incredible, she will always offer guidance, she will never push you into anything you don't want to do, she was just simply the perfect childminder there ever could be and we often think about moving back to Luton just for her. You won't find anyone who will care for your child/children as much as Kerryanne, her family and the team. They really do become your family ❤️ thank you for everything Kerryanne. You deserve a medal and more x
We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful caregiver for our son. She looked after him from the age of 18 months until he turned 3, and throughout that time she provided a truly warm, nurturing, and supportive environment.
From the very beginning, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about the children in her care. She creates a real “home from home” atmosphere where children feel safe, happy, and valued. Our son absolutely loved going each day, which gave us great peace of mind as parents.
She is not only supportive to the children, but also to parents—always approachable, understanding, and happy to share updates and advice. Communication has always been excellent.
The variety of activities she provides is fantastic. From creative play to outdoor adventures and learning opportunities, every day is engaging and exciting. It’s clear that a lot of thought and effort goes into making each child’s experience both fun and developmental.
She was also absolutely amazing in supporting us through the potty training stage. She guided both our son and us as parents with patience, encouragement, and consistency, making what can often be a challenging milestone feel much more manageable and positive. Her experience and calm approach made a huge difference, and we are so grateful for her support during that time.
We have seen our son grow in confidence, social skills, and independence during his time with her, and we couldn’t be more grateful.
We will miss Raquel so very much.
I thank my lucky stars we found Kerreyanne during covid for our now nearly 6 year old. I remember reading in a review at the time that she's like Mary Poppins, and I couldn't agree more. She is truly one of a kind, and I fully trust her with our children. We have our second child with her now and we have even planned house moves around not being too far from her. She goes above and beyond for the children - the most loving and patient person with a heart and soul of gold. My girls have learned SO much in her setting, and I just love seeing my little ones face light up when we arrive at her door each morning. She is so inclusive of everyone and goes the extra mile in everything she does including for birthdays and other special event celebrations - even down to creating homemade custom layer cakes made wholly of fruit for children's bdays or tying bows around the backs of the children's chairs for tea parties!! I literally cannot say a single bad thing about her or her team and if you are lucky enough to get a place in her setting for your child, you absolutely should jump on it without hesitation.

We've only been with Ammarah and Shamsa for a few months, but we honestly couldn't be happier with our choice. Leaving your toddler with someone new is always nerve-wracking, but she made the transition so smooth — our little one (18 months) took to her almost immediately, which told us everything we needed to know.
What really sets Ammarah apart is how warm and caring she is, you can tell it's not just a job, it's a genuine vocation. Our children come home having done brilliant activities and is clearly learning and developing every day.
On top of that, Ammarah and Haleema have been incredibly flexible and reliable, which as working parents means the world to us.

Lilly looks after my twins (2)
Lilly takes them to lovely places and groups that they really enjoy and caters to their individual needs, encourages learning shapes/counting/alphabets ect each activity. Bonus is we as a family get updates regularly on what they have been up too and eaten.
My children ask every day if they are visiting "lillys house" as they love going.
Lilly is very kind and caring person, the whole family are very welcoming and get to know the parents and children invidually, their home is clean/ tidy with lots of activities for the children, aswell and a beautiful garden with equipment for the children to play with.
Would highly recommend.
Rebecca has been looking after my daughter for a couple of years now, and I honestly couldn’t recommend her more highly. She is not only a fantastic childminder but also an amazing person who genuinely cares about the children.
Rebecca goes above and beyond to create a fun, nurturing, and stimulating environment. She regularly takes the children on a variety of outings, giving them opportunities to explore, learn, and develop confidence in new settings. At the same time, she provides a wide range of resources and educational activities that support their learning and development in a really engaging way.
One of the things I value most is the peace of mind she gives me. I always feel completely secure and relaxed when my daughter is with her, knowing she is safe, happy, and well cared for. Rebecca is incredibly reliable, attentive, and professional, and we have absolute confidence in her abilities.
It’s clear that Rebecca truly loves what she does, and that shines through in every aspect of her care. We feel very lucky to have found her.
We are so happy that we chose Cheeky Charlie’s for our little one! Farrah, Jess & Toni are just brilliant. Couldn’t ask for anymore from a childminder. Our daughter is well looked after and always smiling at pick up time. They do some many different activities with the children. Can’t thank them enough for how they look after our daughter!
We have been using this wonderful childminder for almost a year now and we could not be happier with the care our child receives.
She is incredibly trusted, reliable, and attentive — someone we feel completely at ease leaving our child with every single day. The setting is well-equipped with a fantastic range of toys, books, and resources that keep the children engaged, stimulated, and learning in a fun environment.
Most importantly, our child is always content, and happy, which says everything about the warmth and dedication she brings to her work. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any parent looking for outstanding, loving childcare.
