Clair and Nicky are the best team, we couldn’t recommend them enough as childminders. They are truly the best. Since our daughter started with them the difference in her is unreal, she is so confident and is thriving. She is the happiest little girl and sometimes we struggle to get her to come home from Clairs! She just wants to stay and play! They make her feel like she’s at home, so loving and caring and will do anything to help! The places they visit are out of this world, they take them out every single day! She has come on leaps and bounds and is much more confident since being at Clairs. We couldn’t be happier with her experience! She loves going and sits by the door waiting to go each morning! If 10 stars were an option we’d give that!
I couldn't recommend Vikkie enough. She is absolutely amazing and has such a friendly, caring personality that instantly puts both children and parents at ease.
My son absolutely loves the days he spends with her, especially all the outings and activities she takes the children on. It's wonderful to know he's having so much fun while learning and exploring new things.
One thing I really appreciate is the constant updates and photos throughout the day. They give me peace of mind and allow me to see all the lovely things my son is doing.
She has also been incredibly reassuring and supportive whenever I've felt anxious, always taking the time to answer questions and put my mind at ease. Knowing my son is in such safe, caring, and capable hands means so much to me.
We are so grateful to have found her, and I genuinely couldn't recommend her more highly.
My family more than landed on our feet when we found Kirsty in 2020. It was difficult handing over my then 1 year old during Covid but she soon settled right in and is stil there over 5 years later! Now joined by her little brother. Both children love it at Kirsty’s ❤️
Kirsty’s is a home away from home, exactly what I wanted from a childcare setting as I prefer that to the sometimes clinical private nursery’s. Kirsty is warm and kind in her manner toward the children in her care, along with being professional yet friendly.
Her communication is great, sending updates and photos of their adventures during the day which I enjoy.
I trust her wholeheartedly with my children and wouldn’t change anything about her and her setting.
Even if it means I hear ‘I wanna go to Kristy’s so I can feed the rabbit her breakfast’ nearly every day!
I cannot recommend my childminder highly enough. She has looked after my son with such care, kindness, and dedication, and it has made a huge difference to both him and our family.
From the very beginning, she created a safe, welcoming, and nurturing environment where my son feels happy, secure, and valued. She takes the time to understand his individual needs and interests, providing a variety of engaging activities that support his learning and development. It is clear that she genuinely cares about the children she looks after and is passionate about helping them thrive. I am incredibly grateful for the support and care she provides and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any parent looking for a trustworthy and exceptional childminder.
My son is as safe as he is at home. Thank you Panda cub team for helping us to bringing up him since last year. You are amazing…
JoJo’s childmind has looked after my son for 2 years before going big school . He absolutley loved his journey at JoJos. He has developed so much on his social skills , intellectual and communication. It has been a pleasure to have her childminding being part of my son’s growth in his toddler milestones and he loved all the activities and fun trips they experienced at JoJos childminding. You will be greatly missed by him and our best wishes as you continue to look after all the little ones.
We joined Panda Cubs when they first opened, and choosing Clair and Nicky to care for our daughter has been one of the best decisions we’ve made.
They have been absolutely fantastic from day one. Our daughter has developed so well in their care and is always happy, confident, and thriving. We know she is safe, loved, and genuinely cared for every single day.
Clair and Nicky take the children to so many amazing places and provide wonderful experiences that help them learn and grow. Our daughter always comes home clean, happy, and full of stories about her day. They truly treat her as if she were one of their own, which gives us complete peace of mind.
I couldn’t recommend Panda Cubs highly enough. We are so grateful that our daughter is with Clair and Nicky, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found such caring, dedicated childminders.
My daughter has been attending Panda Cubs since it opened, and she absolutely loves it. It truly feels like a home-from-home environment where she is happy, safe, and well cared for.
Clair and Nicki are fantastic childminders who take the children on amazing adventures and provide so many opportunities for them to learn and grow. Since being in their care, my daughter has really thrived and her confidence has grown so much.
I would highly recommend Panda Cubs to any parent looking for a nurturing and supportive setting for their child.
Our daughter started with Jodie at 2 years, will remain with Jodie until school and our second who is due soon is already signed up to receive childcare from Jodie. We were nervous about starting our little girl at childcare. From meeting Jodie, we were reassured that Jodie provides a gentle, caring and sensitive approach to all the children she cares for. We hadn't seen our daughter respond so positively to any other caregiver and couldn't believe we'd found someone we felt so confident to look after our child - she is always excited to go and see her friends and Jodie. Her setting feels like home and Jodie goes out of her way to provide the children with great learning and life experiences. Jodie is great at communicating with parents so we always feel in the loop. We couldn't have wished for anything better for our daughter and will be sad when she has to leave! I would 100% recommend Jodie - she works incredibly hard and our daughter is growing in confidence, knowledge and experience thanks to her.
Mavis is an exceptional childminder. She has been looking after my two children for the past two years, and all I can say is thank you. Throughout this time, she has been incredibly reliable, caring, and nurturing.
Mavis always goes the extra mile to ensure that the children are well cared for, happy, and supported. Whenever I’m at work or away from home and my children are in her care, I have complete peace of mind knowing they are safe and being looked after to the highest standard.
I have never had any issues with Mavis. Her dedication, professionalism, and genuine love for the children she cares for are evident in everything she does. My children have thrived under her care, and I am truly grateful for all the support she has given our family.
If you are looking for a reliable, caring, and nurturing childminder, I would highly recommend Mavis without hesitation.

Aimee & Liv have been wonderful as our first childcare providers. Our little boy has been with them since he was about 14 months old and they made the settling in period really easy, even though we were quite nervous about leaving him for the first time! It didn't take long for him to start smiling when we pulled up outside. We like that they are a small local team with a familiar routine and their space feels cosy and homey. They communicate regularly throughout the day which puts your mind at ease too.
My daughter has been attending Sandra's Bright beginnings since April and she has settled in straight away. Sandra has been so accomodating for our needs and very flexible when we have needed last minute help. Her setting is absolutely lovely and the resources switched around frequently, my daughter get's very excited to see what toys she will get to play with on the mornings she attends! Sandra is so welcoming and my daughter has created an instant bond with her. We are so happy we found Sandra and my daughter often asks on day's she isn't attending if she is having toast at Sandra's house! Could not recommend Sandra and her services more!
Lisa has been an amazing childminder for the last 3 years! My daughter has loved going here since day 1! They do such a variety of activities, ranging from baking, arts and crafts, puddle jumping! They go outside everyday on little adventures come rain or shine!
My daughter has learnt so much with Lisa. Her counting, vocabulary and understanding on life has come on leaps and bounds due to Lisa’s extensive experience working with children! Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a true professional to look after your child! She will be truely missed!
My daughter started with Karen when she was 11 months old, I was nervous as it’s the youngest age I’ve had to find a childminder for, and truly from just meeting Karen and seeing her setting in person I could tell my daughter would get all the same care and love she got at home, she was very welcoming and so friendly and provided me with so much reassurance. On her first day she went in perfectly I was updated throughout the day with pics and the things she was doing it was lovely. Since then she’s stayed with Karen and will continue until of school age, she really interacts with her and encourages her learning and she gets all the attention she needs and loves seeing her friends. She does lots of fun activities and has such fun days out at the beach, park, toddler groups etc! I truly couldn’t recommend her enough she really cares about the children she looks after and has become like a family friend to myself and my partner I’m so thankful I chose her setting been the best decision we made 🩷
I have had an excellent experience with Mavis and using her child care service. My daughter is well looked after and attended to. She looks forward to going to child care. Mavis is a loving, kind as well as patient person. Mavis is flexible and accommodating. She is respectful and also helpful, with excellent communication skills. I would highly recommend using her service.

It’s hard to put into words how much Aliya means to our family. She joined us almost a year ago when I was returning to work after maternity leave, and she made what felt like an overwhelming transition so much easier. Within just a few days, I knew my daughter was in safe, loving hands.
From the very beginning, Aliya built a wonderful bond with my baby. She was incredibly patient during the early days when my baby constantly looked for me, and she always found creative ways to engage, comfort, and teach her. Every day, my daughter seems to learn something new, and it’s clear how much love and effort Aliya puts into helping her grow.
What makes Aliya truly special is that she goes far beyond her role. Whether it’s creating fun activities, taking my baby on little adventures, helping around the house, or simply being there to support me as a working mum, she always gives more than anyone could ask for.
Over the past year, Aliya has become so much more than our nanny—she has become a trusted friend and part of our family. We are incredibly grateful for everything she has done for us, and we honestly can’t imagine our lives without her.
Ilona was the first babysitter we ever used with our son. We were very anxious but she immediately put him at ease and they connected right away. My son liked her from the moment they met and there was no difficulty at all when it was time for us to leave while they played together. She was warm and engaging and made the experience very positive for both my son and us keeping us always updated with pictures and messages. My son is always happy to see her and very sad when she leaves. We would happily recommend her.
I’m so pleased with Dreamy tales and the team. Nadine and her team are an absolute dream, they’re so good with the children and my daughter warmed up very quickly with Nadine.
All the children are well behaved with good manner so I feel rest assured my daughter will pick up good habits here.
Fantastic value for money considering all they do with
the kids. Honestly so pleased and happy I was able to get a space! Thank you Nadine! I felt so worried about leaving my daughter but I know she’s in safe hands. ❤️
