Melissa is a real gem of a nanny. She has a real sense of warmth and fun, she is very kind and understanding and is so keen to ensure children feel secure, well cared for and entertained. Melissa is great company and very attentive to the children she looks after. Children really enjoy her company. She is so thoughtful, planning great activities. She is organised, reliable and solves problems easily when plans need to change. Melissa became a close and valuable member of our family. She is such a wonderful person, always looking to help. She is tidy, polite and easy going, happy to work as a team with carers to maintain consistent approaches to parenting. Any family would be very fortunate to have her as their nanny- she is gold dust !

Michele is a five star tutor. She tutored my 16 year old for his GCSE English and Maths exams.
My son had missed quite a bit of school due to anxiety. Michele has a deep understanding of the issues that a teenager, either mental health and absence issues, could be facing.
She quickly built rapport and, in a calm and friendly manor was able to get him to think and embrace the challenge, without further compounding his worries.
We were extremely impressed with Michele’s experience and ability to turn things around with our son. We cannot recommend her highly enough.
We couldn't have asked for a better childminder for our girls. They have been with Suki for almost two years and are now leaving to start preschool, and it is the end of a wonderful chapter.
From the very beginning Suki has made them feel completely at home. She is one of the very few people whose house they will happily walk straight into without any hesitation, which says everything about how safe, comfortable and loved they feel with her.
Suki plans many fun and engaging activities, from baking and crafts to outdoor play and learning through play, and it's been lovely to see how much the girls have developed during their time with her. They are always excited to tell us about what they've been doing each day.
Knowing they were happy, well cared for and genuinely looked after like part of the family has given us real peace of mind. We are so grateful for everything Suki has done for our girls over the last two years and would recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for a caring, reliable and dedicated childminder.

Emma has been a superb childminder to our son. From the start we had settling sessions and spoke constantly to ensure we had a smooth transition. We entrusted her with our son from the age of 9months talking babe language and now his 2years and 3months with mouth full of words. He loves going to Emma’s house and always waves goodbye with a big grin on his face. Her house is child friendly with lots of learning items and clean.
We will dearly miss you Emma and this is surely not a goodbye but a see you soon 🥰
After a difficult experience in another setting and needing to move our little boy desperately, finding Kelly and Hannah was the biggest blessing we have ever had. To say our little boy loves going here would be an understatement. The experiences, curriculum, love and attention provided to the children every single day is beyond words. Our son has came on unbelievable amounts since starting here, we will forever be grateful to have found you both!
Steph is an amazing tutor! Before she started, my Grandson was behind with his reading it was a struggle to get him to read 2-4 pages. Now he reads an entire book with her during their weekly lesson after school. Steph has vastly improved his phonics, spelling and grammar. along side these skills his reading fluency has also advanced significantly proving just how effective your after school tutoring has been. From day one we noticed her encouraging yet firm support. She combines a kind personality and endless patience with a professional and punctual work ethic, makes lessons engaging and fun, and always listens to family feedback to ensure his success. We highly recommend her

We have been using Amelia’s services for a few years even before she joined this site and we couldn't recommend her more highly. She is incredibly friendly, reliable, and wonderful with our children. We always feel completely at ease when she’s looking after them! Thank you.

Tanya has been looking after my boys for nearly a year and they love her! Every morning they are excited to see her and their friends. Tanya provides lots of learning opportunities and my boys have thrived both physically and with their language skills. She has been very caring and kind to us as a family, especially at the beginning when I found it more difficult to leave my boys as I returned to work. I would, and have, recommended Tanya to friends and family. She is fantastic!

I arrived in Manchester from NYC for work knowing no one and needing care for my 2 years old while at work . Found ROKSALANA. Pure gem!!Roksalana ‘s energy and care made my child immediately feel safe and cared for . She took many initiatives ( park adventure/ stroll/ museum) to keep him engaged while sending pics of their adventures in the city. She gave me full report on their feeding, nap time and adventures at all time. Not once did I hear my child cry or being upset while with her. Her softness and attention led him to trust her fully and kept me feeling at ease 100 %. I recommend Roksalana to anyone who needs peace and safety and joy with their little ones. She set the barre very high for any baby sitters after that !
We had a disappointing experience with Millen. After several back and forth conversations, a phone call and an in-person meeting in our home, we agreed on a regular nanny position with Millen’s minimum hours required and planned all our work around her starting. The night before she was due to begin with us, she let us know she had accepted a PA job offering a higher salary. While I completely understand people need to do what’s best for them, the timing left us without childcare at the last minute after we’d stopped searching and made plans based on her commitment. She did apologise and recommend another nanny, (who turned out to be extremely far away), but the lack of reliability made what was already a stressful situation at the time much harder, as we were really sorely let down.

Liz is an absolutely fantastic babysitter, As anxious parents, leaving our 19-month-old was initially a bit daunting, but Liz completely put us at ease from the very beginning. She has excellent communication skills and made sure we felt completely reassured while we were away.
She is incredibly nurturing, friendly, approachable, and genuinely caring. It was so wonderful to see how she looked after our little one with such genuine care and attention. We will 100% be keeping in contact with Liz to look after our child again in the future. We cannot recommend her highly enough
Our son has been with Lucie since he was just 10 months old, and he is now 3. Lucie has been caring, fun, and incredibly supportive throughout some of his biggest milestones and developmental stages. He has thrived in her care, and we’ve always felt confident knowing he is happy and well looked after. We are so excited that our second child will be joining Lucie very soon. We couldn’t recommend her more highly.
Michelle was an absolute lifesaver for me on two occasions this week when I was left with no childcare options. She babysat my two children for a few hours each evening and was amazing. My 7YO couldn’t stop raving about her and was so excited to go a second time. My 1YO is extremely fussy with new people and she quickly settled with Michelle and enjoyed playing with her daughter and dogs. I can’t recommend Michelle enough and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!
My little one has been with Kelly for 3 years from the age of 1 through to starting school. As a first time Mum with a busy career I was incredibly nervous after maternity leave ended, how I was going to make everything work and ensure everyone is content!
Kelly has been absolutely incredible, so professional. The settling in phase was smooth and my little one has loved every minute of going to Kelly’s.
Kelly creates a fantastic balance between the kids feeling part of the family environment, plenty of learning and development and daily adventures for the kids to feel constantly engaged.
We were so lucky to have Kelly, and our little one has had such a fab start for school, she is miles ahead with her development from the majority of her class and loves to learn. A huge part of this is down to Kelly and the environment she creates in her home!
Would recommend Kelly to absolutely anyone and you would be very lucky to have her!
Honestly, I can’t say enough good things about Derek. He’s been an absolute lifeline for my family. As a childminder, he not only handles the drop-offs and pick-ups with reliability, but he’s also formed this beautiful bond with my son. Derek takes the time to understand his unique learning style, keeps him engaged with indoors and outdoor activities and communicates so well with both of us. His services and care have truly become part of our family dynamic and I can’t recommend him highly enough to any parent looking for a childminder. His communication is outstanding and I always feel informed and supported. My son sees him as a friend and it’s truly amazing to me that Derek made him feel like he belonged, never once making us feel any discrimination or doubt. That genuine acceptance and care have been so vital! The setting feels welcoming, safe and nurturing for learning, fun and growth! I totally recommend 👏🏽!
