Sara looked after my two daughters with so much care, kindness and patience. They loved spending time with her and always felt happy and safe. My children absolutely adore her and I always had trusted her.
We have now moved out from London, otherwise my youngest daughter would definitely be going to Sara's childminding setting.
I would highly recommend Sara to any family looking for a caring, reliable and trustworthy childminder. Your little one will be in great hands. 😊

Sara took wonderful care of my baby. She was kind, patient, and attentive, and I always felt my baby was safe and well looked after with her. She was reliable, caring, and communicated well throughout. I truly appreciate all her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy caregiver.

Natasha - Manchester

I am delighted to recommend Natasha, who has been with my family for the past seven years.
She is exceptionally trustworthy, reliable and compassionate. Throughout her time with us she has cared for my daughter with genuine love, patience, and professionalism. She is punctual, hardworking, and consistently goes above and beyond in everything she does.
I found her through this website and I am glad she was available all the days for us. She helped us with drops and pick ups, stayed during my extremely busy oncalls and training period. During the Covid pandemic as well she was able to help us.
Over the past seven years, she has become an invaluable part of our family. I have complete confidence in her and would not hesitate to recommend her to any family seeking a dedicated and outstanding nanny.
We are ending this journey only because we are relocating to another country. I would have continued to have her until my daughter completed high school.
Wish her all the best for future, we will miss her.

Ranjit - Wolverhampton

After searching for the right childminder for quite some time, I was so grateful to find Ranjit and the team at Shining Stars. One of the things I appreciated most was their flexibility in accommodating my changing work schedule. As someone who doesn’t have fixed office days, it meant so much that Ranjit was always willing to adjust my son’s attendance whenever space was available.

Since joining Shining Stars, I have seen such a positive transformation in my son. He has become much more confident, talks so much more, and is always excited to go to daycare. Seeing him so happy and eager every morning gives me great reassurance that he is in the right place.

The care and support from Ranjit and her team have been exceptional. They keep the children engaged in fun, creative, and educational activities, and my son always comes home proudly showing us what he has made or learned during the day.

I am especially grateful for the support they gave with potty training. It’s not something every childcare setting is willing to take on, but Ranjit and her team happily worked with us, providing consistency and encouragement that made a huge difference.

Finding Shining Stars has truly been a blessing. Ranjit and her wonderful team have given me complete peace of mind, knowing that my son is safe, happy, loved, and well cared for. I cannot thank them enough for everything they have done, and I would wholeheartedly recommend Shining Stars to any parent looking for a caring, nurturing, and trustworthy childminder.

Gene has been an absolute godsend both to me and my two children (Now Ages 10 years & 19 Months). We have been working together now for the last year and Gene now feels part of our little family, she is patient, kind, considerate & attentive. Gene is thoughtful, intuitive, works well on her own initiative, is always on time and adaptable. I often work unpredictable/variable hours and Gene is always as accommodating as she can be even at last minute.

Leaving Little Achievers Childcare as our son starts school is truly a bittersweet moment for us. I cannot put in to words how fast the time has gone and how far our little boy has come!

From the very first day, our son was welcomed at the setting with warmth, patience, and genuine love. It was clear to me from the first time, that this childminder poured all her passion and knowledge in what she does. The setting is a safe and happy place where children can truly grow, learn, and thrive.

Over the years, she has nurtured his confidence, encouraged his curiosity, and supported his social and emotional development in ways that have amazed us. Every day was filled with fun activities, creative play, fantastic outings and gentle guidance — and we’ve seen him blossom into a kind, independent, and joyful little boy.

What makes Little Achievers Childcare so special is not just her professionalism, but the way she treats each child in an individual way and provides/tackles exactly what is needed at that moment. She has been a constant source of reassurance for us as parents, sending daily lots of beautiful pictures and updates about our son. Always communicating openly and clearly as well as celebrating every milestone with us.
We feel very confident about him going to school thanks to the strong foundation he built here.

We feel incredibly lucky to have had her in our son’s early years, and we know the values and skills she’s helped instil will stay with him for life. We cannot recommend her highly enough — she is truly one in a million.

Thank you for everything. You will always have a special place in our hearts. ❤️

Our little boy Harry has been attending Hazel a day a week for just under a year. He has absolutely loved his time at her setting. Hazel provides a wonderful environment for children to develop and thrive. She provides stimulating activities, takes the children on exciting trips, and provides an all round excellent experience for the children. Our boy will miss going to her very much. He has come on leaps and bounds thanks to her. Thank you Hazel for all you’ve done. Alex & Ellie

Nesh and her team have been nothing short of exceptional.

Our daughter has attended this childcare setting since she was just five months old and is now 11 years old. I think that alone speaks volumes about how happy, settled and confident we have always felt leaving her in Nesh's care.

Over the years, our daughter attended full-time, then moved on to school drop-offs and pick-ups, and has continued to attend throughout school holidays. To her, this setting has always been a second home, and that is exactly what it has been. Every child is treated as part of the family, and she has built many wonderful friendships during her time there.

As this is likely to be her final summer needing childcare, it feels like the right time to reflect on just how significant a role Nesh and her team have played in shaping the kind, caring and confident young person she is today. She has benefited from being surrounded by older children who inspired and guided her, and then, in turn, becoming one of the older children who looked out for and supported the younger ones.

The environment Nesh has created is warm, nurturing and full of opportunities for children to learn and grow. Her team of dedicated carers shares her remarkable attention to detail and commitment to every child's wellbeing and development. The children enjoy a wide range of activities, as well as regular outings to places such as local parks and farms, creating memories and experiences they genuinely look forward to.

Communication with parents has always been excellent. Through the Baby Days app, we have received regular updates and accumulated countless photographs and memories over the years that we will treasure forever.

Most importantly, we have always known that Hope was safe, happy and well cared for. As a parent, there is no greater reassurance than that.

We are incredibly grateful to Nesh and her team for everything they have done for our daughter over the past decade. I would wholeheartedly recommend this setting to any parent looking for a loving, professional and nurturing environment for their child.

Thank you, Nesh and team, for being such an important part of our precious girl's childhood.

We honestly couldn’t have wished for a better childminder. She has cared for both of our girls since they were just 6 months old, and knowing they are loved, safe, and genuinely cared for has meant everything to us. She creates such a warm, nurturing environment where the children are encouraged to learn, explore and grow at their own pace. Our girls absolutely love going and have built such a lovely bond with her. One thing we’ve always appreciated is how flexible and accommodating she is. As a family, that support has been invaluable and has taken so much stress away over the years. She is always planning fun and enriching experiences, taking the children to groups like Jo Jingles, Forest School, picnics, parks, soft play and so many other outings that keep every day exciting. The girls have had so many wonderful experiences and opportunities because of her, and it’s been amazing to watch their confidence and development flourish. She always keeps us updated, celebrates their milestones, and truly treats them as if they were part of her own family. Her kindness, patience and genuine love for the children shines through in everything she does. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and honestly couldn’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you for everything you’ve done for our girls and our family – we will always be so grateful

Angela started looking after our daughter nearly 6 months ago and we have not regretted that decision.

Angela makes sure to engage the kids, she takes them out to the museum, park, soft play, and even at home in the garden the do lots of activities.

Our daughter has since improved in her development and we are happy.

Thank you Angela for how you care for our daughter.

I needed someone to look after my daughter while I am at work. Chandani was the best person I found as childminder to put my mind at ease while I am at work. She reassured me and given me a summary of the day at pick up time. I felt confident with her. My daughter had a good playful time and she wanted to go back the next day.

Ana is a kind, gentle, and caring nanny with many years of childcare experience.
She joined our family Oct 2025 to Feb 2026, when our son was around six months old and cared for him with warmth, patience, and genuine affection. She prepared healthy meals, kept him engaged through a variety of indoor and outdoor activities, sang to him, and created a nurturing and stimulating environment that supported his development. During the few months she worked with us, Ana was reliable and a pleasure to have in our home.
I would be happy to recommend her to any family looking for an experienced and compassionate nanny.

Leah was a godsend. She stayed with me (a first time solo mum) for two weeks and helped me establish a routine early on which my baby responded really well to. She also taught me a lot in the process. Leah is very calm, gentle and clearly excellent with babies! She also accompanied me and provided reassurance when my baby had to go into A&E unexpectedly. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Ruth - Purfleet-on-Thames

Ruth was literally God sent for me, after my one year old daughter wasn’t doing well in nursery I had to switch to a childminder and I immediately saw a positive change and improvement in my child. Ruth made sure she was reaching all her development milestone such as physical and motor skills with active talking, physical and emotional support and regular activities in her home, in the children centre or library. I was a new mother dealing with postpartum depression and anxiety and my daughter was experiencing speech difficulties and couldn’t walk or take the stairs with confidence. However Ruth was invested in her development. She was very supportive and was constantly encouraging her to sing songs, recite nursery rhymes, read books together every day to expand vocabulary. She would also use frequent eye contact, talk about what she was doing, point to objects, name them clearly, and ask simple questions to encourage back-and-forth interaction. You should see the smile on my face each time my daughter sings the wheels on the bus and repeat the dance moves of the song. I don’t know what I would have done without Ruth. She is exceptional and truly care about children, like genuinely! And this is so important to know you are leaving your child in good hands and in a safe space. This is my honest review, she is gem! Thank you for everything Ruth and I would definitely still use her childcare services again and again.

Della - Frome

Della has been absolutely fantastic, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provides. From the very beginning she’s been so warm, flexible and accommodating, creating such a lovely homely environment where children are free to learn and develop at their own pace.

Since my daughter started attending just two days a week, I’ve seen such a huge difference in her confidence and social development. She’s really come out of her shell, and it’s been amazing to see how much she’s learned and how happy she is there. Della follows a child-led approach and is always happy to work around routines and each child’s individual needs, which has been so important for us.

The children spend lots of time outdoors exploring, playing and learning, and Della keeps me updated throughout the day with photos and messages, which is so reassuring. It’s obvious how much she genuinely cares about every child in her care. I would wholeheartedly recommend Della to anyone looking for a caring, flexible and nurturing childminder.

Geneane has been looking after our 9 month old since the start of July. We felt so comfortable with her quite soon as she’s so lovely and sweet. Our son absolutely loves spending time with her. She’s super kind and an added bonus is the fact that she leaves our home spotless anytime she comes . It really helps that she’s flexible and accommodates our needs when she can. We absolutely love having Geneane take care of our child!
