Latest Reviews
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.
My son has been with Victoria since April with a few sessions from January and he loves going to see her. Her family are very welcoming and the set up is perfect for him. He enjoys playing outside and having after nap snuggles. Victoria always updates us on their daily activities and keeps us informed. She is also very accommodating to my last minute requests! Very much appreciated and will always highly recommend :)
Our son has been with Chloe from the age of one to three and a half, and we simply could not be happier that we came across Chloe all those years ago. She is kind, patient, flexible and understanding, as well as being an excellent communicator with parents. Most importantly, of course, she is an incredibly skilled, creative and dedicated childcare provider, and has helped shape the development of our son in such a positive manner, aligning perfectly with what we have also tried to do at home. We are now leaving London, but leave Chloe with a heavy heart and nothing but thanks for the past 2-3 years. Highly, highly recommend!
Gemma is incredible. Our son, who is very shy absolutely adores her and cannot wait to go back from the minute he leaves.
Gemma truly makes the setting ideal for the children she has, tailoring it to each individual need - if our boy is there, she always ensures there are cars and water play available and I think part of the reason he settled immediately was her care and compassion in every single thing she does!
He is absolutely thriving in the nurturing, supporting environment Gemma provides and we couldn't be more comfortable leaving him with somebody ā¤ļø
Thank you Gemma, we can't wait for all the adventures Arthur will share with you š«

We cannot recommend Tinzar highly enough! Our daughter has been in her care for nearly two years now, and the experience has been wonderful. From day one, we have trusted Tinzar completely. It is incredibly reassuring to leave your child with someone so dependable. Our daughter absolutely loves going there and has developed so many new skills. She especially enjoys the wide variety of daily activities, the engaging storytimes, and all the outdoor play. Tinzar provides a brilliant environment for children to grow and learn.
Claire has supported our family with childcare for the past three years. She cared for our daughter until she started reception and is currently looking after our two-year-old son.
She is exceptional, and we highly recommend her. Claire is creative and provides the children with a wide range of engaging arts and crafts activities. We have received many thoughtful handmade gifts from our children for Motherās Day, Fatherās Day, birthdays, and other special occasions. She also celebrates religious and cultural events with themed activities and food.
Claire ensures the children are offered a variety of healthy, balanced meals. She regularly takes them on outings, including local toddler groups and music sessions, which they thoroughly enjoy. Claireās home is safe, welcoming, and well-equipped with a wide variety of indoor and outdoor toys.
Communication is excellent. We receive daily updates on what the children have eaten, naps, along with plenty of photos to keep us informed and reassured.
Claire has also been incredibly flexible, supporting us with additional days when our work and plans have changed.
We feel very lucky to have her help.
Monique is such a great childminder, since my little girl has been there I have seen huge progress and development. She has learnt lots of new words and phrases, she is sleeping so much more consistently and independently. She follows routine really well and has never once been unsettled or not excited to go. I am so happy with her and would recommend her to any parent who is looking for an exceptional childminder who really cares about your child and makes them feel like family.

Melissa worked with our family for around 4 years when our 3rd child arrived. She was a continuously kind, calm and gentle presence in our home. All of our children formed a special bond with her and still ask to see her to this day. Melissa really went the extra mile for our family when we moved from Sheffield and continued working with us throughout some big changes. I highly recommend her as someone who really values the children in her care and who takes time to get to know them individually. All of our children have such special memories of days out, games and Melissa's special pasta! Thank you for being so wonderful to our children Melissa.
Sally was absolutely wonderful. From the moment we first spoke on the phone, she put me completely at ease with her warm, motherly nature and excellent communication. Meeting her in person only reinforced that feeling ā she was approachable, kind, and instantly made both me and my 11 month son feel comfortable.
We hired Sally to look after our son during a wedding, and despite the day becoming a little chaotic at times (especially later in the evening when groomsmen were popping in and out of the cottage we were staying in), she remained calm, patient, and reassuring throughout. Nothing seemed to faze her.
Most importantly, my son absolutely loved her and was so happy in her company. It made such a difference knowing he was being cared for by someone so capable, caring, and trustworthy. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sally to anyone looking for a babysitter, and we would happily hire her again.

As soon as I met Reena, I knew she was the perfect childminder for my daughter.
Before finding Reena, I visited several nurseries and childminders, but I never felt completely confident that they were the right fit. The moment I met Reena, I felt instantly comfortable and reassured. Her warm, caring nature and the safe, welcoming environment she has created in her home made the decision so easy for us.
Reenaās home is beautiful, spotless, and extremely well maintained, with plenty of toys, activities, and opportunities for children to learn and have fun. She always puts me at ease, and my daughter absolutely loves spending time with her.
Since starting with Reena, my daughter has come on in leaps and bounds. Itās been amazing to see her confidence, development, and happiness grow.
Reena is truly exceptional at what she does. She is caring, professional, and dedicated, and I trust her completely with my daughter. I couldnāt recommend her highly enough.
Janine cared for Rosie from 9 months to 3 years, and I couldnāt have asked for a better childminder. I always felt completely calm and confident leaving Rosie with her, knowing she was in the safest and most loving hands. Rosie was genuinely cared for, nurtured, and treated as one of the family.
Janineās beautiful cottage and fantastic outdoor space created the perfect setting for Rosie to learn, explore, and grow. We are so thankful for the time Rosie spent with her, and I can give Janine a glowing recommendation to anyone preparing to leave their baby with someone for the first time.
Melissa looked after our girls for 2 years. The girls loved their days with her, they always had lots of fun. Melissa is very caring, patient and kind and created a fantastic bond with our girls. She is very trustworthy and honest and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for childcare needs.

Magda has been fantastic with my little autistic boy!! She has provided exceptional care and understanding of his needs . He is much more confident in doing anything new and speaks more and more since we are working with her !! She is an absolute star - very flexible, knowledgeable, punctual and helpful not just as a childminder but as a parent and as a woman !! Highly recommended!!!
My son has been with Tinzar since September last year and he loves going. I wanted a home setting for my son as I work full time and did not like the idea of nurseries; I wanted a more home like feel for him and we certainly get this with Tinzar.
My son has made friends and has progressed so much. Tinzar has set learning for the them and keeps us parents updated within the app.
Tinzar is always willing to help when I need to swap days and with potty training my son; giving me tips along the way.
I highly recommend Tinzar.

The best of the best! Satindar is loving, kind, caring and very professional. I have had my baby go to her from 9 months old and have always felt confident and at peace knowing he is being looked after and well fed with home cooked meals. My son goes to her with open arms and a big smile in the mornings. I couldnāt recommend her enough Iām so glad we found her. Thank you so much for everything you do š

Michele has looked after both my children for years. She has always taken so much care of the and they have always have thrived in her care. She treats each child like they are a member of her own family and you can see that she truly loves them and wants the best for them and their futures. Michele has been a massive support for me especially over the past few months when my child has shown signs of autism. She is loving, patient and goes above and beyond to ensure the child always leaves as happy as possible. My child gets upset if he canāt see his āshell shellā everyday! Thanks Michele for everything you do!

We had booked Kerrie in advance to do Monday Tuesday for 3 weeks. She cancelled last minute 30 minutes before on the first day. That week didnāt happen. The following week we gave her the benefit of the doubt, and took her reasoning as genuine so gave her another chance. She cancelled again with 10 minutes to go even though Iād double confirmed the day before. Waste of time, wouldnāt recommend booking if you actually want childcare. I mentioned I would complain and she said it wouldnāt matter because she had a āpristine recordā not anymore.

My almost two year daughter has been with Angela and Cam since she was 6 months old and they've been absolutely wonderful. They've always been incredibly warm and welcoming and made me feel very comfortable leaving my daughter in their capable hands from the first day. They've got excellent facilities to help children play and learn in a safe environment and I feel like my daughter has learnt so much and has so much confidence in socialising since she's been with them. Every time my daughter comes home she seems like she's had the best day and whenever my partner drops her off in the morning she bowls straight through their door without a second glance at him to say goodbye! I think that's a great sign of how happy she is there. I highly recommend!
Wendy took care of our two children (ages two and five) every day for two weeks while I was an academic visitor at the University of Oxford. The experience was excellent.
She connected with both children immediately, even though they didnāt speak English, and kept them engaged so they were never bored. Wendy is reliable, kind, funny, and energetic, and she always seemed to know exactly what to do.
She was also incredibly flexible, as each day was different due to my academic schedule. Her support made it much easier to balance family life with my academic commitments, even taking the children to explore colleges while I attended lectures.
It was a pity she wasnāt available any longer during that period.
Would highly recommend.
Kerstin
