Rida helps us once per week house sitting while my daughter is asleep in bed. Rida also helps with our ironing. She is always punctual, helpful and responsible.

My son is very happy here. He has been coming here since he was 10 months old. He is now 18 months old. I was very anxious due to the last child minder but here at Joki Gems my mind was put at ease. My son settled in very quickly and he is progressing very well and has made many friends. I can tell he is well and truly loved and cared for at this childcare provider. I am grateful and will always use this provider.

Simone has looked after both our children, they have been so happy in her care. She really cares about their welfare and the children have fun together, becoming a nice group of friends.

Ersida - London
Reviewed

We recently started working with Ersida to help my 6 year old son who has poor attention for certain learning tasks to ensure there are no gaps in his learning. She has been brilliant in engaging him and ensuring he is getting the most out of his sessions and each week he is completing increasing amounts of work which is fantastic. As a tutor Ersida is incredibly patient, firm but warm and experienced in the curriculum. She spends time at the end of each session discussing what’s been covered and brings all her own resources and a few treats :) We are very happy we chose Ersida for our son.

Alice - Crawley

I want to recommend but I can’t lie as safety of children is key.
We really liked Alice and she seemed good with our son and was good for short notice but something started to unsettle us after she was abit rude via messages and wanted to stay at our home so we brought a camera to keep an eye and are forever grateful we did.
She had our son while we went out and we checked the camera she was no where to be seen for 15minutes she then ree appeared on her phone must I add our son is autistic and shouldn’t be left alone for his own safety as he has no awareness of danger but he also has his dinner with him and has no concepts of not putting it all in his mouth and chocking.
When Alice re appeared she sat on the sofa near our son didn’t check him and was on her phone talking to someone about men and what has recently happened. Our son laid on the other sofa with his food he was putting in his mouth and slowly falling asleep we immediately made our way home. Once home she was shocked we was back I checked first my son was safe then had a word with her about it and told her we wouldn’t be able to trust her again she become really upset and apologetic I explained safety has to come first and this was a massif safe guarding issue. She didn’t seem to care or understand this only about her self and went on about how she had just become homeless and she wasn’t doing best she wants coping or mentally okay I said you shouldn’t be with kids right now then she said she needed to for money I understood this so reminded her that she can do household help rather than be with kids until she is mentally well. We then paid her (out of sympathy) and let her go. We have never once recieved an apology or anything. I think she needs more training with children and chocking before looking after any children again.

Tegan - Crawley
Reviewed

Tegan is amazing our young son is autistic when we met Tegan we new straight away she was perfect our young son straight away liked her and he doesn’t like new people. She is caring and patient we couldn’t have found someone better. Like any SEND parent we worried especially as our son is non verbal but we need not to worry he has a great time with Tegan and now knows when we arrive he runs to her door and straight in with excitement. He has also learnt to be able to say no to things he doesn’t want and is much more calmer around other children which before he could not cope with. We have noticed since he has started with Tegan he has come along way and has learnt so much.
Tegan is amazing with our son and always keeps us updated and sends some lovely photos we highly recommend and the photos here doesn’t do her setting justice honestly it’s amazing and massif much bigger then the photos she has a lovely clean home very welcoming.

Olga - Cambridge

We are so grateful for the wonderful care our children received with Olga. From the very beginning, she created such a warm, welcoming, and nurturing environment where our little ones felt safe, happy, and truly loved.
Although our eldest only spent a short time with her, we saw immediately how attentive and kind she was. But it was through the time our youngest spent with her—from babyhood until starting nursery—that we truly came to appreciate the amazing care she provides.
She always showed such patience, affection, and understanding, meeting our child’s needs with genuine care and consistency. We were always reassured knowing our little one was in such good hands—happy, well looked after, and thriving.
Olga has been an important part of our family’s journey, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. We cannot recommend her enough! She is just amazing!

SUMAYYA - Oxford
Reviewed

I had the absolute pleasure of entrusting my 11-month-old daughter to Sumayya’s care, and I can confidently say she is everything you would hope for in a childminder—and more. As a parent, especially one who tends to worry, it’s incredibly important to feel reassured when leaving your child with someone. From day one, Sumayya gave me that peace of mind. She is kind, warm, and genuinely passionate about caring for children. Her environment is safe, loving, and full of fun, and she ensures every child receives the best possible care. My daughter always came home happy, settled, and thriving after spending the day with her. It was clear that she was not only cared for, but also truly loved.
What stood out most to me was the personal touch. Sumayya regularly sent updates, messages, and pictures, sharing all the lovely activities my daughter was engaged in. It made me feel involved and reassured throughout the day. Her combination of professional qualifications and a genuinely nurturing heart is rare and so valuable.
I wholeheartedly recommend Sumayya to any parent looking for a trustworthy, caring, and skilled childminder. She’s made a lasting impact on us, and I feel incredibly lucky to have found her.

My little T was with shabnum for a full year and she was absolutely amazing! He went to shabnum at only 7 month old. She took on his care very easily. She was very clear, professional and flexible in her dealings and only once did she ask me to take T home because of sickness. He loved going to her! The one thing I really appreciated was the fact that she used to take him out to the park, the farm and other local setups quite frequently. This really boosted his confidence and he is now so friendly and not afraid to try new things. Thanks for all your help Shabnum xxxx

Zebras Tots - Basildon
Reviewed

My toddler has been coming to Zehra the past few months. When initially looking at childcare, Zehra was so friendly and reassuring. The setting is just right as a secure home with a play room for the children. The team provide a hot meal for my child everyday and ensure she is fed and well cared for throughout the day.

The children have full access to the garden instead of outings outside of the house. This works well for us as toddler so young.

Zehra is easy to contact and has also picked up a day where my mother in law could not. My child has built up a nice bond with the team and now goes in and comes out happy every day. She always seems to have had a good day and I get updates in the book supplied about what she has done in the day.

Highly recommend Zebra tots to anyone looking for a friendly homely atmosphere.

Thankyou Zehra!

Mega fun - Blackburn
Reviewed

We feel incredibly lucky to have found Megan. From day one, she’s brought such warmth, professionalism, and genuine care into our lives. Her attention to detail is absolutely second to none, nothing gets missed, and you can tell how much thought and heart she puts into everything she does.

She’s always punctual, super organised, and goes above and beyond in every way. Communication is one of her real strengths, we’re always kept in the loop, and she’s so approachable and easy to talk to. Megan has a wonderful way of adapting to fit around the needs of our family and, more importantly, what’s best for the child.

What really stands out is her deep knowledge and understanding of disabilities – it’s clear she’s incredibly experienced and makes safety and inclusion a top priority. On top of that, she’s always up to date with local events and activities, which keeps things exciting and fun for the little ones.

Honestly, we couldn’t ask for more. Megan has made such a positive difference, and we’re so grateful to have her support.

Megan is a gem!

Came home and my child and dog were completely safe, however was told that she barely spoke to my child or interacted with her- just sat on her phone, and for £15 an hour I’m very disappointed with the service given. I was also barely spoken to so I won’t be booking again.

Jean - London
Reviewed

My son has been attending Jean’s setting for nearly a year now, and I can confidently say it has been a fantastic experience. Jean provides a warm, caring, and stimulating environment where children are supported in their development through a wide range of engaging activities. My son has learned so much during his time there — from everyday skills to more structured learning — and always looks forward to going. I really appreciate how Jean takes the children out to visit local places, giving them a variety of enriching experiences. I highly recommend her to any parent looking for a nurturing and reliable childminder.

laura - St Ives
Reviewed

Laura is just so wonderful. I had a last minute work booking while in St Ives and she was able (with less than 24 hours notice) to take all three of my children for a full day. Despite different ages (9, 7 and 4) they all had a wonderful time with her - she took them to museums and the beach and they said it was their favourite day of the holiday. She is so kind and warm, knows the area inside out and has an instant understanding of how to deal with children. Cannot recommend her highly enough.

Colette - Hampton
Reviewed

Colette has been looking after my son for the past year, and I honestly couldn’t ask for a better childminder. From the very first meeting, I felt completely at ease – she and her lovely family welcomed us with such warmth, and my son settled in so quickly. It was a huge relief after a difficult experience with a nursery.

My son absolutely adores going to “Lette Lette’s” house – he shouts with excitement when he realises where he’s going! He loves spending time with her three children and always comes home full of stories about his day. Whether he’s been to the park, a playgroup, or done sensory play, he always has a great time.

Colette keeps me updated every day with a report of his meals, nappy changes, and lovely photos of their adventures. It’s clear how much care and thought she puts into every day with the children. As a first-time mum, her support and advice around toddler behaviour has been invaluable – she’s not just a childminder but a truly caring presence in both our lives.

I honestly cannot recommend Colette enough – she’s loving, supportive, and absolutely amazing with children.

Victoria - Royal Borough Of Greenwich

Our daughter Daisy has been with Victoria for the past few months and absolutely loves it. She’s always excited to go and it’s clear she has a wonderful time every day. Victoria creates a warm, caring environment where Daisy has learned so much and grown in confidence. Daisy especially enjoys the days out to the park and library (sometimes both in a same day) and always enjoys Victoria’s food. We really appreciate the effort Victoria puts into every part of the day, and the regular updates keep us reassured and informed.

We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend Victoria to any parent looking for a kind, reliable and nurturing child-minder.

Emily looked after our little boy (9-12 months) until he started his nursery and was so patient and kind. He bonded with her really quickly which made my return to work much less stressful and a lot easier knowing he is having fun every day. She adhered to our routine and kindly kept us up to date with photos, videos and nap times throughout the day which was very helpful. Also, if there was any time left, she helped us with chores giving us more time we could spend with our little one.

Thank you so much for everything, Emily! We miss you already!

Neelu has been caring for my daughter since I returned back to work, and she has exceeded all expectations. My daughter has become so confident and chatty since starting with Neelu, and she gets so excited when we arrive at Neelu’s house each morning!
It’s hard to trust someone with your child but I would recommend Neelu to everyone!
