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.
After reading other people's reviews, positive and negative, I've decided to get in touch with Amelia to support my daughter and son. She seemed lovely, which I'm sure she is. She replied promptly to my messages and we even spoke over the phone. Upon her request, I went with her suitable time slot and got a baby sitter to watch my two disabled children to accommodate the meeting as I'm not able to do so without this support.
I was really eager to meet her but despite going with her preferred time, she didn't turn up. I kept texting her but had no reply. I've tried her number and it kept saying that I've dialed an incorrect number. I even tried calling her WhatsApp number but it kept saying that it's unavailable. I was so confused as I spoke to her using the same number a couple of days ago and it worked fine. After seeing that she was active on the Childcare app, I tried contacting her here, but she still did not respond to any of my queries. I can understand that she might have changed her mind but that's not professional and ethical at all. if you've arranged a time to meet someone then at least have a decency to let the other person know that you're not interested, which is absolutely fine as everyone is free to make their own decision.
I wish her all the best but if she's reading this then please try to be considerate of others time and emotions. A lot of parents come here to look for support as they already have many struggles in their lives.
Thanks
We couldn’t be happier with the care our son receives here. He’s 23 months old and has been attending for about a year now, and he absolutely loves it. The variety of activities, the structured daily schedule, and the balance of playtime and garden time keep him engaged and excited to go each day.
One thing that really reassures us is the level of care and attention given to his severe food allergies. The staff take this very seriously, and it gives us real peace of mind knowing he is safe and well looked after. It’s also clear they genuinely care about the little ones, we know he’s comforted and supported whenever he needs it.
He is learning so much during his time here at OG and constantly comes home with new skills and words he’s been taught by the staff. Little things, like bringing us his dirty plate after meals, show just how much he’s developing with their guidance.
We’re so happy with his care and would highly recommend this setting to any parents looking for a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for their child.
My son is autistic, hyperactive, and has a short attention span. Amelia engaged with him very well and quickly built a positive connection. She kept the activities structured, engaging, and enjoyable, adapting them to suit his needs.
She was patient, used an appropriate tone and clear language, and managed to keep him motivated throughout. She was also punctual and communicated well with us. I would highly recommend her, especially for children with additional needs.

I cannot recommend Pearl highly enough. She is a warm, positive, and genuinely caring person who responds thoughtfully to the needs of both adults and children. From the very beginning, she made us feel comfortable and welcome. Pearl is incredibly approachable and supportive. She always responds quickly and in a timely manner whenever something is needed, which gives great peace of mind as a parent. Communication with her is easy and natural — you can talk to her freely and openly without hesitation. She creates an environment where you feel secure, understood, and respected.
She has supported my two children with great care and patience. Pearl has been especially helpful during times when adaptation was needed, handling situations calmly and professionally while always putting the children’s well-being first.
We are truly grateful for her dedication and kindness.
Poppy is so wonderfully loving and caring. She is a real natural with children of all ages. She creates a warm, nurturing environment where our children feel completely safe and happy. Poppy is full of engaging activities that support learning and development through play and exploration. She takes the time to truly understand each child’s personality and needs.
She is always so welcoming and polite whilst also encouraging the children’s own good manners and kindness. Her communication is excellent — we’re always kept informed about daily activities and any little moments that make us smile. It gives us complete peace of mind knowing our children are not only well cared for but genuinely cared about.
We cannot recommend her highly enough. She always goes above and beyond and we are so grateful for the love and patience that she shows. She truly is exceptional at what she does. Our children will forever hold a special place for her in their hearts.
Sarah has helped out with ad hoc childcare and daytime babysitting for my energetic 3.5 year old and 1.5 year old over the last few months. I never have to worry about them when they are with Sarah as she has the skills and energy to manage their different needs. My little one even learned Sarah's name during her last visit which shows she's a big fan!

I would like to recommend Ms Tina with all my heart. She is, without a doubt, the best nanny my daughter has ever had. Since being with her, my daughter has learned colors, the alphabet, and so many other things. But most importantly, she feels safe, loved, and happy.
I have never felt so at peace leaving my daughter with someone. She is such a kind, caring, and patient lady. You can truly see that she loves what she does.
Every time we arrive at her house, my daughter gets so excited. She walks in happily, and that says everything to me. Knowing that my daughter is happy and well cared for is priceless.
I recommend her 100%. She is truly a wonderful person.
Sherise is absolutely wonderful with my son, and they have so much fun together. She is incredibly reliable and helpful; if I ever need her to take him to school early because of my work schedule, she always says 'no worries' and is happy to help. She’s polite, professional, and excellent at the school runs. Knowing he is in such caring hands makes my life so much easier—I can’t recommend her enough!!
Our daughter joined Lolo Day Care when she was ten months old and spent two wonderful years there. It’s never easy leaving your child in someone else’s care for the first time, but from the very beginning, the warmth and kindness of Lolo and her team gave us complete trust and comfort.
The setting has such a calm, nurturing atmosphere and beautifully embraces the Montessori approach. They fill the days with creativity and fun — from sensory play to a wide variety of local outings that broadened her world in the most wonderful ways.
They supported her development more than we could have hoped for, helping her grow in confidence and curiosity.
We’ll never forget the love and attention they gave. They even recorded and sent us videos of her first steps — memories we’ll cherish forever.
Lolo and her team truly made our daughter the happy, thriving little person she is today, and we couldn’t recommend Lolo Day Care more highly.

Coco is great! She looked after our little Una (2 years old) and they got on straight away. Coco is interested in art and was keen to share this with Una, they painted and playdow ect fab.
I like her approach — very nice and flexible, adapting to the kids’ needs, but also able to set boundaries and redirect in a playful way.
Coco is also super energised and can handle a good game of football with my eldest (Louis 4 years old) when he’s back from school.
Now that the kids are at school, I’m hoping to have Coco babysit for us when she can. X
Nawal has been the childminder for both of our boys, and we truly could not have asked for anyone better. She is incredibly loving, gentle, and genuinely devoted to the children in her care. From the very beginning, she created such a warm and nurturing environment that made our boys feel safe, happy, and excited to spend time with her.
She is wonderfully hands-on — always engaging them in activities, encouraging their development, and giving them so much individual attention. It’s clear how much she cares, and that care shines through in everything she does.
Knowing they are not only safe, but truly loved and well cared for, has meant the world to us. We are so grateful to have had Nawal as such an important part of our boys’ early years.

My son has been with Lisa since he was 10½ months, and I couldn’t imagine a better place for him. She takes such wonderful care of him—going on walks, visiting the zoo, and doing lots of fun activities. I’m so happy with how much he has developed under her care. Her patience, warmth, and dedication make her an outstanding childminder, and we feel so fortunate to have her in his life.

I’ve had a wonderful experience with Kajal Karia caring for my son Mohamed. He started with her at just 9 months old and has been doing fantastically ever since. He smiles as soon as we approach her door, which says everything about how happy and comfortable he is in her care. Kajal provides a warm, nurturing environment, and I have complete peace of mind knowing Mohamed is so well looked after. Highly recommended.
Safiyah was amazing. Her professional skills coupled with her motherly instincts was much appreciated. She allowed my daughter to feel comfortable, safe and ensured their time together remained educational. Aside from this, she proactively engaged with me and kept me updated throughout the day. It was really assuring. Will definitely be requesting further bookings.
