I had arranged with Sophie a week in advance to look after my toddler so we can go to the Nick Cave gig. I messaged her the previous afternoon to confirm details, and chased the morning after and she just never replied. We ended up having to sell our concert tickets very cheaply and we stayed at home. We were waiting all year for this concert!
Samiya is now our family and that alone says it all. We cannot begin to thank Samiya and her team enough for the exceptional care they have given our boys (now 4 and about to start school) and our 1 year old who has been there since he was 6 months. The setting is like a nursery with different ages but with the intimacy and care of a childminder. Samiya and the team have taught the boys everything alongside us and are hot on manners- there isn’t a single child there who isn’t coming out being kind and well mannered. They have patience of saints, they take the children on educational trips and are always getting them out into nature. Not only that but all of the children who are about to start school can already do carpet time, are regulars at the library and all love books. They can pay attention for much longer periods than I’ve seen other children of the same age. I could write pages and pages about the incredible care and we rave about her to everybody!
Angela has supported us with babysitting and childminding (when our childminder was on holiday) and we always feel confident that our son is being looked after very well and is in safe hands. Angela is calm, caring and very friendly. We trust her completely and are very grateful that she makes herself available for us.

I just want to say a huge thank you for the incredible care you give my daughter. You look after her with so much love, gentleness and attention — it means the world to me as a mum. She is always clean, fed, and happy when I pick her up, and I never worry about her while I’m away. Thank you for being such a blessing to our family. Jehovah truly bless your kind heart! 🙏💐
Am did a fantastic job looking after my two girls, aged 3 and 6, for a few occasions. The girls loved her high energy, and she always went above and beyond to keep them active and entertained with baking, arts and crafts, face painting, and dancing. She also ensured the house was tidy and clean when we got back. We highly recommend her and hope to have her around again soon!
I honestly couldn't recommend Jasmine's Childminding Services highly enough. Jasmine and Charlie are two of the kindest, warmest and most caring people you could ever hope to leave your child with.
They have looked after my little one for the past two years, and the care, love and attention they've shown has been incredible. They've created such a safe, nurturing and fun environment where children are encouraged to learn, grow and thrive. The activities are always so thoughtful and engaging, and it's clear how much effort they put into supporting each child's development.
The setting itself is absolutely beautiful—it's always spotless, well organised and full of inviting, stimulating spaces for the children to explore and enjoy. You can see the love and pride Jasmine and Charlie put into creating an environment where every child feels happy, secure and inspired.
One thing that really stands out is how every child is made to feel special. Birthdays and personal milestones are always celebrated, and each child is genuinely acknowledged and valued as an individual. It's those thoughtful touches that make such a big difference.
They've always been so accommodating, supportive and approachable, and I've never had to worry when my child is with them. In fact, I trust them so much that I'll soon be sending my youngest there too.
Thank you, Jasmine and Charlie, for everything you do. You both go above and beyond every single day, and any family would be incredibly lucky to have you caring for their children. I truly couldn't imagine a better place for my children to be.
We hired Aida to help us night-nanny our 3-month-old, and she has been an absolute lifesaver. We travelled from the US and wanted help here in Central London. Handing over your tiny baby to someone else in the middle of the night requires immense trust, but Aida put us completely at ease from night one.
She is gentle, incredibly calm, and deeply knowledgeable about infant sleep habits, developmental milestones, and soothing techniques. Not only did she handle feedings, diapers, and settling our baby with extraordinary care, but she also helped establish a gentle nocturnal routine that left our baby far more settled.
She was always punctual, communicative, and had notes about feed times and sleep patterns each morning so we felt completely in the loop.
If you are looking for someone trustworthy, skilled, and compassionate to care for your baby, I cannot recommend Aida highly enough!
I reached out to Karen when I was really struggling for childcare around my work - she was welcoming and completely understanding, she’s gone above and beyond to help me and my Daughter. She’s been nothing but reliable and kind, my daughter throughly enjoys going to Karen’s - I wish we could use Karen full time in fact! When life’s busy, Karen truly understands and clearly loves what she does, she takes great pride in the children she cares for. Thank you Karen, we couldn’t have done it without you! x
We contacted Atefeh when my wife and I needed someone to look after our two-year-old daughter while we were away. Our daughter is extremely attached to us and had never attended nursery or been cared for by someone outside the family during the previous six months. She normally never sleeps without me, so we were naturally very worried about how she would settle.
Atefeh made the whole experience easy and reassuring. She took excellent care of our daughter, helped her feel safe and comfortable, and even managed to settle her to sleep, which was a big achievement for us. Our daughter enjoyed her time there, and we felt completely at ease knowing she was in safe hands.
Atefeh’s childcare setting is clean, neat, well organised, and professional, with all the facilities children need. She is caring, patient, attentive, and reliable. We are very grateful for the wonderful care she provided and would happily recommend Atefeh to other parents.

HDN has been such a calm, happy environment for our daughter. She joined at 10 months, settled in quickly and came home happy every day. The staff are all wonderful and it's clear how much she loves them by how happy she is to see them every morning. Regular events at the nursery and the park make it easy to drop into the lovely vibe there. Sadly moving out of the area meant we had to move our daughter out of HDN, but that was also a smooth process and we were genuinely touched by the photos and scrapbook she left with. Thank you to Chris and the team. We'd recommend to local families in a heartbeat.
We couldn’t be happier with the care Afshin has provided. She is reliable, kind, and incredibly patient. From the moment she arrives, I know my baby 10 months now is in safe and caring hands. We highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring babysitter. She has been a wonderful support to our family, and we are so grateful for everything she does.
I have enrolled my son who is 1+ years old
With reema for almost 6 months and I can honestly say I am so so happy with the care being provided
The activities they get to take part in and all the development I see in my son.
Makes me very excited to see how much more he will progress in the future.
Reema is always keeping me up to date with any and everything and is always happy discussing anything that I may need.
Well what can I say , sara has both my little boys 3 days a week and my boys absolutely love coming !

Maria has been caring for our 1.5-year-old one day a week over the past few months, and we have been extremely happy with her. As this was our first experience with a nanny, she quickly put us at ease, and our daughter clearly adores her.
She is proactive in finding local activities and ensures they spend plenty of time out and about. She also prepares healthy, tasty meals that our daughter enjoys.
Maria’s communication has been excellent throughout, and she has always been reliable and punctual.
We would not hesitate to recommend Maria to any family looking for a caring, reliable, and proactive nanny. She has been a wonderful addition to our routine, and we feel very fortunate to have found her.

My little boy has settled so quickly into Beth's setting and really enjoys his time there. They are always out and about doing something, from gymnastics classes to soft play he has the best time every day and Beth makes sure to take lots of photos so you can see how much fun they're having.
Beth is great at communicating and reassuring me as a nervous parent going back to work and leaving my little one for the first time, she is flexible where possible and always listens to any requests I have for my little boys care and making sure she follows them.
I couldn't ask for a better childminder to look after my little one and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for care for their little one.
Happy Hearts childminders is a real home away from home. Tania and Fallon are so invested in the children’s interests and wellbeing, and have a deep understanding of early childhood development.
Activities are well planned, and cater to each child’s interests and stage of development. They deepen learning through frequent trips to the library and the local community, and the children seem so engaged.
My daughter has gained so much confidence and social understanding since attending the setting, and has even learned Makaton to help express herself. She is so happy to greet Fallon and Tania in the mornings, which is such a relief when leaving her at a young age. She has truly felt so safe and well cared for here.
The communication is excellent, and we feel well informed about trips, new learning any accidents that may take place.
We could not recommend Happy Hearts more and feel really lucky that our daughter’s first experience of early learning was such a positive one.
Jasmine & Charlie cared for my daughter right up until she started school and the care, kindness & professionalism were second to none. I would highly recommend Jasmine’s Childminding to anyone looking for an incredible setting & consistently outstanding childcare.
Blossoms Childcare it is actually a place where your child is going to blossom.
From the moment I met Michelle I knew she is the person I would trust to look after my baby, and she proved me all the way she is a trustworthy person.
I could see my child blooming everyday, I could see him happy, growing confident and very well looked after.
She looks after the kids like her own, and many times I said to myself, " I couldn't have done a better job than she does". From lovely activities to help them develop, to exciting trips and little adventures suitable for kids.
All our journey has run smooth all the way and it felt so good to have the peace of mind knowing we have her as a support.
I couldn't recommend her more, and I don't think there would be a second Michelle out there. We taking her into our hearts.
We are very greatlful and give her all credits and respect.

We honestly couldn’t recommend Sarah enough! She has looked after both of my children, previously caring for my older daughter and now looking after my 4-year-old son, Bertie.
Bertie absolutely loves his days with Sarah and always looks forward to seeing her and finding out what exciting adventures they’re going on. She is so caring, kind and attentive, and it’s clear how much she genuinely loves and cares for the children she looks after.
Sarah has become like a second little mummy to Bertie, and knowing he is happy, safe and so well cared for means the absolute world to us. She goes above and beyond to make every day fun, engaging and special.
We are so grateful to have Sarah in our lives and couldn’t imagine anyone better to care for our children. She really is the best! ❤️
