I contacted Monique for an ad hoc childcare. Monique responded straightaway, extremely professional and welcoming. My son spent two days with Monique and he absolutely loved it . She organised so many activities during the day and provided nice dinner. Highly recommended!Thank you Monique!
Marcia was our full-time nanny from 2014-2020 from when our son was six months old until he was six and his sister three.
Marcia was wonderful in all respects - the children adored her and had total trust in her as did we. Marcia was wonderful in discipline, potty training, all aspects of looking after babies, introducing them to new food.
Marcia was totally reliable - I remember only 1 or 2 sick days in six years. We also were both working very hard and Marcia was incredibly flexible when we needed to be home late on short notice.
We were so sorry to part ways with Marcia - it was only because we moved from E8 to N6
Very happy to speak as referee
Care concerns!! did not clean my kids' nappies on time and their nappy areas were so red that they won't let me touch or clean them when at home, these incidents happened at least 6 times, when complained, she said she changed them and they came from home like that.
Both kids started shivering and had fever a few days of starting childcare when asked if she didn't turn on the heating, she said I was blaming he for everything and doing tantrum.
Extra pair of clothes always in nappy bag but still they came with dirty bodies with dried poop on them which confirms their nappies were full that they leaked always and changed late, except once when my boy fully wet himself and he had to change.
Poor feeding, usually half or three quarter of the food always came back, which shows she hasn't tried again if the kid didn't want at once.
No show/door opening, went to drop off the kids and she didn't open the door on 2 occasions, I was getting late from my work and brought my kids home, got a warning from my work for being late for half an hour. When I texted her that I'll deal your behaviour accordingly and she replied I was doing tantrum as I needed to understand that she was in her back street (no texts or calls from her).
When I complained all the issues, she texted me that I am terminating your contract RIGHT NOW and your children's care will not resume.
Claimed 30 hours funding from 01/09/25, however, I only first saw her on the 21/09.

I highly recommend Anisha as a childminder. She is calm, patient and very understanding with children and goes above and beyond to ensure they feel welcome and safe. The premises also provide a great space for children to grow and engage in a variety of activities. My son enjoyed it here so I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for a nurturing environment for your child.
I absolutely adore Becci. Becci is wonderful and amazing at what she does. Goes above and beyond and even took my breath away when she decorated her home for our sons birthday and hosted him a party with games and prizes and even a perfectly themed birthday cake catered just for our little boy! Would highly recommend 100% but she's so good she doesn't have any openings 😆
Anisha took great care of our little girl! She is really kind and gentle, you can clearly see she loves children, and children love her! My daughter had so much fun. Anisha set her house up to accommodate the children and make it have everything a child could want or need. I would 100% recommend Anisha to look after anyones child.
Anisha has a very nice outdoor space where children can play as well, which is a bonus!
Anisha is one of the best Childminders I have used. Her provision is safe and secure and she goes above and beyond in looking after the children in her care. I have a son who is on the Autism Spectrum and has been going to stay with Anisha for a number of years. He only goes to her as he feels safe and happy with her compared to other providers .
Anisha provides healthy choices of meals and always take the children outdoors weather permitting so they get their daily dosage of exercise . My son always seems very happy and full of life when he comes back home from Happy Space Academy.
Shazia is absolutely amazing. She is extremely caring and has been looking after my baby since he was 6 months old and now he is 1 years old. She has always helped him get better when he wasn’t feeling well gave him good food to make him better. She makes sure he is fed Wel and gives him different food to keep him happy. She keeps him entertained. And also gives really good advise on how to keep baby healthy.
My son has been going to Ms Anna's since September this year and he loves it! When we get ready in the morning he often asks if we're going to Ms Anna's (even if it's not the day) and when he comes home from Anna's, he's happy and relaxed. Anna is a kind and caring, and I can tell Anna she's vey dedicated to her work, for all the right reasons and I count myself lucky to have found her. My son's speech has improved amazingly thanks to the visits, he also is much more involved and independent in playing at home. I highly recommend Anna's Childminding.
Timea has looked after my daughter from age 10months to just before she turned 4years and joined nursery. She’s the best out there and I would highly recommend! I basically see her as family at this point and still take my kids ( one who is older) to her during school holidays as they love it there! They get to do all sorts of activities, learn and have fun! She is an absolute gem and truly miss see her more often! We love you Timea!

We are sadly having to leave Waldemar early after relocating for work but we couldn’t recommend it enough for anyone looking for a creative, kind and nurturing environment for their child. Dana and her two assistants work in a bright and clean homely space with different rooms for the children to play, nap and eat in. They have a lovely large garden where they play in lots and are right next to Lammas and Walpole park, where they go most days. The home cooked food they prepare each day sounds so delicious but also so varied and healthy! Their daily activities are so imaginative and include music classes, circle time, baking, arts and crafts and reading. Dana’s communication is great and we are sent photos during the day and are talked through our child’s day when we pick up. As a first time mum still breastfeeding, I was worried how childcare would go (our daughter started at 13 months) but we had no issues with settling in and Dana works to each child’s needs and pace, we felt completely at ease and our daughter completely loves it there. Her speech has come on leaps and bounds and it is especially lovely to see the different ages of children playing and having fun together! Waldemar is a complete gem and we will miss it so much!
I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better nursery for my two children. From the very beginning, the staff made us feel welcome . Both of my kids were so happy there and clearly thrived—socially, emotionally, and in their confidence.
The care and attention each child receives is incredible. The team really takes the time to get to know the children as individuals, and it shows in how excited our kids were to go each day. Communication was always excellent, and we felt fully informed and involved.
Im so grateful for the love, patience, and dedication shown to my children. This nursery has been a huge part of their early years, and we’ll always appreciate everything they’ve done for my family. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to any parent.
I would recommend happy space academy to anyone looking for childcare as the provider is just amazing with children, so understanding with the kids and generally a very caring person.
The space is set up nicely enabling the kids to be able to participate in different activities including messy play and there is also a garden space for free play.

We cannot recommend Vicky highly enough! She has cared for our three children for years - sometimes after school and frequently during the holidays. She understands each child as an individual, is endlessly positive, flexible, and creates the most wonderful balance of outdoor adventures and creative play at home. We never worry for a moment when our children are with her, and in their words: “Vicky always takes us to the best parks!”
Anna and Andy providing perfect nursery service, ours son it's always happy when he hear he going to auntie Anna and uncle Andy.
Both of them making kid's time at theirs home very active what we like the most.
We couldn’t be happier with this nursery. From the very first day, the staff have been incredibly warm, caring and professional, creating a safe and nurturing environment where children truly feel happy and secure.
The teachers genuinely care about each child as an individual. They are attentive, patient and always go the extra mile to support children’s emotional and developmental needs. Communication with parents is excellent — we are always kept informed and feel listened to.
The activities are engaging, creative and well thought out, helping children grow in confidence, independence and curiosity. It’s clear how much love and dedication the whole team puts into their work every single day.
Our child absolutely loves coming here, and as a parent, that peace of mind is priceless. We are truly grateful for everything this nursery does and would highly recommend it to any family looking for a wonderful, supportive place for their child.
Fatiha is dependable, kind, and truly cares about the children she looks after. From day one, she built a strong, trusting bond with my kids and always treated them with patience and respect. She is proactive, organised, and great at balancing fun activities with structure and routines. I felt confident leaving my children in her care, knowing they were safe, happy, and well supported. Any family would be fortunate to have her, and I recommend her without hesitation
Eva has been teaching my 10 year old daughter for a few months now and I’m so glad I found her! She’s been helping my daughter with her needs within her learning and well being she’s been showing her special techniques on how to work out maths with resources she brings her self we are so happy that we found Eva she’s really helped my daughter get confident with her learning techniques. Thank you!
Our child started nursery at TikTak recently. They were so incredibly welcoming and accomodating (dietary requirements, cloth nappies, sleep preferences, pumped milk...) it feels like leaving our child with family. They have bent over backwards to settle our child in which has happened so quickly. The regular updates and photos are so reassuring and it's wonderful to see all the incredible activities they are doing. The effort put in to the children's development and happiness is second to none. Last week's Christmas party was unbelievable, the preparation and execution showed how much the staff care and pride they take in their work. Our child had the best time. I cannot recommend TikTak highly enough. The multicultural, multilingual environment is brilliant for the children's development as well as the time spent outdoors. The nursery itself is a beautifully laid out and decorated space, with incredible attention to detail.
