Here are some of the latest reviews that we have received from parents who have used childcare providers and tutors listed on Childcare.co.uk.

Amanda7194 - Long Eaton
Reviewed

Lily has been with Amanda since she was around 6 months old, and from the very beginning we felt completely at ease leaving her in Amanda’s care. It’s not an easy thing to do as new parents, but Amanda’s warmth, professionalism, and natural way with children gave us instant confidence.

She kept us fully updated through the Babysdays app, which was so reassuring, and we loved seeing what Lily had been up to each day. Over the years, Amanda has guided Lily through so many important stages – from potty training and learning good manners to preparing her with the skills and confidence she needs for starting school.

What makes Amanda so special is the way she manages everything with a smile and endless patience. She always thinks of meaningful activities that are fun but also help the children learn and grow. Lily and Amanda became the best of friends, and the bond they share is something we will always treasure.

We are so grateful for the love, care, and support Amanda has given Lily and our family. We couldn’t have wished for a better start to Lily’s early years, and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly exceptional childminder.

Thank you Amanda! 😀

Emma Lou - Leeds

Emma took on my son extremely last minute and has him almost full time. My little boy is utterly in love with Emma, excited to go each morning and sad to leave each night. He has developed so well since joining Emma and is the happiest cleverest boy. Emma is brilliant with him, does such fun activities and even makes him a nutritious lunch each day. Emma sends detailed updates each day putting me at rest in the early days. I would recommend Emma to anybody, she is fantastic and we are so lucky to have her!

Shameem is really lovely, our 1 year old took to her instantly. She is so calm and reassuring which was great for us as first time parents and our first experience of using a babysitter. Our little one loved playing with her for hours and she sent us lovely videos of him for us to see. He was all changed and ready for bed on our return. Thanks Shameem 😊

Shekel - Barnet

Our daughter started at The Learning Tree three years ago and we now send our second daughter there. The setting is second to none and Shekel goes above and beyond for her children there, as if they are her own. Shekel and her team give 100% to the children everyday and our girls have absolutely loved it there. It’s hard to get them to leave sometimes! I know there is no place like The Learning Tree and our children truly have had the best start there, we’ll be very sad to leave!

Sweetpea is one of the kindest supportive people I've met in a workplace and as a friend. The most sensitive caring person and everyone is drawn to her. Also known by my partners family through her working years for a long time as well absolutely would recommend without a doubt

judyowen - Nazeing

Judy truly is one in a million. She goes above and beyond to create purposeful, engaging and memorable learning experiences that our daughters love. The children explore the world outdoors regularly and look forward to their 'Judy days'. She celebrates a whole range of occasions and events with the children and it is so clear how much time and effort is invested! The regular photo updates she shares throughout the day give us complete peace of mind knowing our girls are happy and thriving.

Judy has become like an extended part of our family. Her warm and nurturing environment has helped our children to build strong friendships and enjoy thoughtful, creative activities every day. She provides a home cooked meal in the evening so we are always safe in the knowledge that the children have had a nutritious dinner when collecting after a busy day at work.

Her kindness and support, especially while I was pregnant with our second child, meant so much to us and her wonderful family have also helped our girls feel secure and settled. We honestly couldn’t ask for a better childminder and are so grateful for everything she does!

Bahar - London
Reviewed

Bahar has been a wonderful babysitter for our family. She is reliable, trustworthy, and has such a fun and friendly personality that our little one loves being around her. She always makes sure meals and naps happen right on time, and her excellent timekeeping gives us peace of mind. She is very presentable, professional, and carries herself with a positive attitude in everything she does. I would highly recommend her to any family looking for a dependable and caring babysitter.

Fatima - Birmingham
Reviewed

I have had a number of childminders as my two kids have grown. None come close to Fatima and how supportive and caring she is with my daughter. She always updates me regularly with pictures and videos, and plans plenty of activities to keep her entertained. My daughter loves her to bits and is always excited when she goes in. Highly recommend Fatima every time. Thank you for all you do ❤️

Shekel - Barnet
Reviewed

My son has been with Shekel and The Learning Tree for over two years and we are delighted with the care he recieves, he loves it there. :)

Following a previous (larger) nursery setting that really didn't work out for us we were naturally edgy as parents. The Learning Tree was (and is) miles apart from the other options we considered. Our son receives amazing support (evidenced by his development), love, care and attention. As parents we feel well informed and completely comfortable. Our son looks forward everyday to going in and the challenge of getting him to leave at the end of the day is a testiment to his happiness.

Shekel also goes above and beyond to help us navigate the complexities of parenting (we're first time parents) with lots of tips and tricks. She really listens to what is important to us and works with us to work through any challenges we are having as a team. We also love the cultural diversity baked into the activities, something we feel is essential and often overlooked.

We couldn't recommend Shekel and The Learning Tree enough if you are looking for a childcare setting.

Ella - Bath

Ella was our full-time nanny for our daughter for 2 and a half years starting when she was 7 months old. She provided exceptional care throughout all of the stages of weaning, walking, talking, potty training as well as teaching teaching phonics, numbers, days of the week and writing her name.
Ella is incredibly passionate about childcare and she has an excellent understanding of the
needs and abilities of children. Our 8 year old daughter still talks about Ella!

Androula - Enfield
Reviewed

From the moment I first visited Androula’s home, I knew it was the right place for my daughter. Shine Bright is exactly that – a warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed environment, filled with engaging resources and activities that immediately caught my eye.
My daughter has been attending for over six months now, and she absolutely loves it. It’s clear she has developed a strong, special bond with Androula, who knows her so well and truly understands her individual needs and personality.
We receive daily updates, with photos and videos, giving us a lovely window into her fun-filled days. The attention to detail Androula puts into monitoring development and celebrating milestones has honestly exceeded all of my expectations.
I feel incredibly lucky to have found her. My daughter is thriving under her care, and I know that with Androula's support, she’ll be more than ready for nursery school when the time comes- although it will be super tough for us to say goodbye!
Thank you, Androula. You are so appreciated and so loved.

Ali - Dursley
Reviewed

My son loved coming to Ali's, she is caring, always smiley and bubbly. Ali is always out and about with the children learning new things in different places, my son was always excited to tell me what he had been up to that day. Ali provides great meals and snacks for the children and nothing is ever to much trouble. Ali is very welcoming on arrivals and pick ups and not only tells you about what your child has done that day, but also asks the parents how there day has been which is lovely! I would 100% recommend Ali to anyone we are gutted to have left to go to school but even now she checks in to ask how he is getting on! Lovely setting, lovely activities and overall a lovely lady 😊

Erica - Birmingham
Reviewed

I wish we had found Erica sooner! She has looked after all 3 of our children, ranging from before & after school pickup and drop offs, to full days.

Erica provides a lovely home setting and the children get a wide range of activities. Our children especially always loved the garden.

Our kids have developed beautiful speech and have all gone into school above their expected levels for their ages, they are encouraged to build their independence every single day.

Erica is always helpful and is very flexible in supporting us a a family where both myself and partner are working full time.

Sumera has be childminding my daughter since September 2020.

My daughter has had before school care and afterschool care and Sumera has always provided informative updates on anything happening with my daughter.

Sumera is flexible, accommodating and supportive of our family’s needs. I am extremely happy with the care my daughter has been receiving over the past five years.

Sumera is kind, nurturing and attentive; my daughter absolutely loves her and looks forward to seeing her again after school holidays.

Unfortunately, despite me messaging a couple of times regarding an availability check to meet up for the first time, Sue never got back to me.

Tega - Lewisham
Reviewed

I put my son in this setting after being on maternity leave for 1 year with him and I cannot compliment this setting enough, my Son has been attending here since February 2025 and has learned so much in the past 7 months.
Such a beautiful, welcoming and clean environment with many daily activities.
After every pick up not only am I provided with a informative handover about his day, I also have the privilege of viewing what my son does and eats throughout the day during real time on the app.
My son can be quite picky when it comes to meal times, however Tega is very patient with him. We are also provided with weekly menu's so we know in advanced what meals are to come.
This setting takes a lot of pride in outdoor time, and go to the park, library and other activates daily.
Tega has made my experience going back to work after maternity leave a breeze and I cannot thank her setting enough for it.

I highly recommend.

Andrea - Easthampstead
Reviewed

My daughter has been going to Andrea since she was 1 year old, and now she is nearly 6. I couldn't recommend Andrea more, she is best Childminder in Bracknell area hands down. Children are always well looked after and have so much fun in Andrea's care. They visit so many interesting places together, and have such a great time at Andrea's house, as she has everything Children need for play and learning. My daughter is always excited to go to Andrea's as she knows she will have great time there with all of her friends. There has never been a day that my child would be bored or unhappy.
Our family always know that we leave our precious one in safe and caring hands when we leave her at our Childminder's house :-)
We love Andrea as part of our own family.

I can’t recommend Amanda highly enough. My son has additional needs and she has been absolutely incredible with him from day one. Her patience, and understanding shines through in everything she does. The communication with us as parents has been fantastic, we’re always kept in the loop and feel completely reassured knowing he’s in her care.

It’s clear she genuinely adores and cares for him, and he absolutely loves going to her. She takes the children out somewhere each day, giving them the chance to socialise and have some fresh air, and then fills the afternoons with fun, creative activities that help them learn and develop.

Under her care, my son developed and grown in ways we didn’t think possible so soon, and we’re so grateful for the support she’s given our whole family. She’s truly goes above and beyond and has made a huge difference in his life.

Alice - London Borough of Haringey

Our daughter was with Alice from 6month to 3 years. Her development was incredible. We felt so happy and secure that our baby was there 4 days a week and she was always to excited to arrive at Alice's House where the facilities are brilliant and they're days out in the woods looked like so much. I'll keep recommending Alice to everyone I know and everyone I meet!
