Sally cared for my daughter from the age of 1 for about 2.5 years before she moved onto preschool, and we couldn’t have asked for a more nurturing, caring and responsible childminder.
Sally always made sure my daughter felt safe and happy. She was incredibly patient, attentive and thoughtful, and it was clear how much she genuinely cared about the children in her care. I always felt completely reassured knowing my daughter was in such safe and loving hands.
My partner and I are so grateful for everything Sally has done over those couple of years and for the wonderful care she gave our little girl. She played such an important part in her early years. From the fun activities set up throughout the day, to the day trips out, there was never a dull day!
We would wholeheartedly recommend Sally to any family looking for a trustworthy, caring and dedicated childminder.

Helen was an absolute lifesaver for our family! She started as our night nanny when my son was 6 weeks old and suffering from severe colic, completely saving us from sleep deprivation.
She was incredibly punctual, a joy to chat with, and answered all of our questions with a wealth of knowledge. Helen helped us establish an excellent routine for our baby. By the time our son turned three months old, he was able to sleep through the night without bottle feedings. It was amazing when new parents to see such a positive change so quickly!
I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Helen for a future role. She would be a tremendous help to any family with a young baby!
Our one-year-old spent time away from us for the first time today, in Eunice’s care. He was incredibly well looked after and seemed very happy and settled throughout. Eunice is fantastic! We couldn’t have asked for better care and will definitely be using her services again. Highly recommended!

Dawn came to help our daughter with her first baby from August to September this year. She instigated our grand daughter into a routine from day one and gave welcome advice and support in getting everyone on track. We nicknamed Dawn 'The Brain' as we just could not think straight and Dawn would provide the answer or the remedy and helped so much with confidence in those early days of a new life being introduced into a busy household.
Our little grand daughter is in a very reliable routine, thanks to Dawn, which has helped everyone so much adapt to life with a new member of the family. My daughter especially benefitted from being able to ask Dawn every question under the sun to help her get started on her journey of being a mother. We would not hesitate to refer Dawn to another expectant Mum.
I cannot recommend Maariyah highly enough! She has been absolutely wonderful looking after my son, Julian, and I feel incredibly lucky to have found someone so caring, kind and trustworthy.
Maariyah has such a lovely, warm nature and genuinely cares about the children she looks after. She is patient, attentive, reliable and always goes the extra mile to make sure Julian feels happy, comfortable and well cared for and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any parent looking for a wonderful babysitter.

I honestly couldn’t recommend Sally highly enough! She provides such a warm, loving and safe environment where my child felt happy, settled and truly cared for. This was a game changer for me as my daughter really struggled separating in the morning but with Sally this became so much easier! Her patience, kindness and dedication could be seen in the fun learning activities and all the trips they went on, as well as how happy and excited the kids always were to be there. Sally is friendly and was great at communicating with us about our child’s development and needs- knowing our child was in such caring and capable hands gave me complete peace of mind. A truly wonderful childminder – five stars without a doubt! ❤️
We’ve had help from Fernanda for about 4 years now. My boys absolutely love her. She would go above and beyond to help us find the most comfortable arrangements for the boys. She is very reliable, responsible, fun, proactive. Lots of love and respect for her. Would recommend 100%

A lovely little nursery!
Little Garden Gate is such a lovely, welcoming nursery. I really love the warm, homely atmosphere and the fact that it's a small setting where children get more individual attention and don't feel lost in a big group.
My daughter absolutely loves it there, which makes me so happy as a parent. She enjoys her time there and always feels comfortable. It's lovely to see a nursery that focuses on children's happiness, learning through play and helping them grow at their own pace.
A real little gem in the Kensington/ Notting Hill area. I would definitely recommend it to other parents!
Our toddler loves being with Tulip childminder, she is very professional, kind and the activities are very educational and fun. Flexibility and updates during the day is very comforting. The house is clean, refurbished and safe. Garden is very clean and accessible for children to play outdoor.
Kemi has been caring for my twin boys for the last couple of months and they absolutely love her. She is extremely caring and loving. She plans fantastic activities for them to make sure they are always learning and have things to do. I am completely at ease when Kemi is caring for my boys. She is reliable and trustworthy
It's very hard to leave a short review for someone who had such a huge and positive impact on our youngest boy. We had bec bec as a childminder for almost 4 years and she was literally marvelous. Her home was always so inviting, warm cosy and she really became a friend. She was always wanting the best for our boy and really instilled fundamental manners and early years learning in him. I could never boast about you enough. Good luck in London and you are missed dearly.
We've been sending our two boys to Gully for years, even overnight on occasion. The boys love going there - there are always other kids around and it's a fun environment. We also feel safe leaving the kids with Gully and are confident they are well looked after. Would recommend.
Kat has been our amazing nanny for over three years now. We are moving abroad and wish she could come with us!
She's always been totally reliable, and we feel very safe and comfortable with her looking after both our children. Kat first started looking after our son when he was six months, and he's now over three and a half, and she's also more recently looked after our daughter, who is now one year old.
We'd 100% recommend it to any of our friends.

Thank you so much for looking after my three children and making them feel so welcome in your home. ❤️ They had a lovely time and really enjoyed themselves. I truly appreciate your kindness, care and the time you spent with them. You are such a lovely, caring lady, and it gave me peace of mind knowing my children were in safe hands. I will definitely be booking you again in the future. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤️
I honestly couldn’t recommend Ash highly enough as a childminder for Imogen. He is caring, patient, understanding and genuinely fantastic with her. It is clear how much he cares about the children and making sure they feel happy, safe and comfortable.
Imogen absolutely loves spending time with him and as a parent, knowing your child is being looked after by someone you trust completely is priceless. Ash goes above and beyond, makes everything fun and creates a lovely, welcoming environment where children can be themselves. The adventures and special days out he takes them on are wonderful and Imogen always comes back talking all about her fun day with Ash and her friends.
Thank you Ash, for the care, kindness and attention you give Imogen. I am so grateful and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to any other parent looking for someone truly special to care for their child.
Our children have been with Sarah approximately 1.5 years and we honestly couldn’t recommend Sarah highly enough! She is an absolutely incredible childminder, and we feel so lucky that our children have had the chance to be in her care. She has created the most wonderful, warm, nurturing and fun setting, where the children are genuinely so happy and excited to go every single day. It’s such a special environment, full of love, laughter, creativity and endless opportunities to learn and explore. Sarah is not only brilliant with the children, but she has also been amazing with us as parents. She is so communicative, thoughtful and attentive, and it has always been so reassuring knowing that our children are in such wonderful hands. She really takes the time to get to know each child as an individual, and we have seen them both absolutely flourish in her care. The progress they have made in their confidence, independence and development has been incredible, and we know Sarah has played such a huge part in that. We are genuinely heartbroken that our circumstances have changed and the children can no longer continue with her. Any family lucky enough to secure a place with her will have struck gold. We couldn’t have wished for a better childminder, and we will always be so grateful for the love, care and happiness she has given them.
We would recommend her a million times over, without a moment’s hesitation! ❤️
I needed a babysitter on quite short notice, and I'm sure any parent can relate to how important trust is in that type of situation. Alicia really helped allay my worries here. The moment she walked in, she was calm and confident, and she immediately bonded with my 1-year-old daughter. I don't get many date nights out with my wife, but Alicia played a big part here in helping set my mind at ease for an evening when it comes to parenting. She's very personable, you can tell she's been doing this a long time, and I would hire her again.

Nicole is truly a lovely person inside and out, and I had no doubt my children were in kind hands. Having helped with adhoc childcare, Nicole did not have much time to build a rapport, but managed to engage my two children instantly. She made a fantastic effort to understand their individual needs and interests, dealt with health issues with absolute sincerity, and provided all relevant documentation of her experience and training necessary. Excellent communication, relaxed and engaged yet professional. I would love to have Nicole work with us again in the future, and truly recommend her services to anyone with young children.
