Isla spent the afternoon taking care of our 21 month-old daughter, and she was incredibly patient, kind and playful with our girl. Communication with Isla and making arrangements for the day was also easy which is a great plus. We easily recommend her to other families and will contact her again if we need childcare in the area! Thank you!

Helen is absolutely lovely. She is soo kind and soft spoken and helped me when my first born was only 4 months. She took massive care of him at my place, bathing, cleaning, cooking and organising their things! Soo much love and warmth and care. Absolutely recommend helen for the amazing help she provides my children in a safe environment.
Our childminder Umbreen provides a safe, caring environment where our toddler can learn and grow. She encourages independent eating and offers a variety of playful activities that support childrenās development. She also keeps us regularly updated with helpful feedback and photos, which we really appreciate. Weāre very happy with the care she provides.
Amanda has supported my son in his language development and logical thinking.
My son struggles with learning and picking things up in general but has been improving under amandas tutorage. Working together with amanda has been a real privilege and would whole heartedly recommend her to others particularly children with additional needs.

We couldnāt be happier with Lisaās Happy Home and the care our 2-year-old son receives. He absolutely loves going, which gives us so much reassurance and peace of mind knowing heās happy, settled and so well looked after.
Each day is packed with fun, engaging activities that not only keep the children entertained but also support their learning, development and confidence. Itās lovely to see how much he enjoys his time there and how much he continues to learn and grow.
Itās incredibly attentive, caring and dedicated, making sure the children receive plenty of individual attention in a warm, welcoming and nurturing environment. Itās clear how much thought and effort goes into creating a happy, stimulating space where the children feel safe, supported and encouraged to develop.
Weāre so grateful for the care and attention Lisa provides, and itās reassuring to know our son is in such good hands. We wouldnāt hesitate to recommend Lisaās Happy Home to any parent looking for a caring, engaging and trustworthy childcare setting.
Lisa & Neil have been looking after our daughter for over a year now and she is absolutely thriving. She adores her time at Lisaās Happy Home and has made a wonderful group of friends. We visited lots of childminders before meeting Lisa & Neil and I knew instantly that it was the place for our daughter. They look after her like sheās one of their own and Iāve never known a childminder to provide such an extensive and varied experience for their children. Lisa & Neil truly go the extra mile and have created a wonderful community which we feel truly privileged to be a part of. One of the best things about Lisa is that she keeps me up to date on every day our daughter is with her - she knows I like to get regular updates and I love receiving the photos she sends me so I can see that our daughter is happy and having fun.
I honestly couldnāt recommend Lisa & Neil more highly - there isnāt anyone Iād rather leave our daughter with!

My child attends Lisaās happy home and absolutely loves it! Sheās developing, making friendships and excitedly runs to the door each morning ready to go! With Lisa you always know whatās planned for the week, from woodland walks, play groups and getting involved in the kicthen. Lisa and her husband Neil really take on the kids as if they were their own, and we get loads of photos throughout the day too.
It really gives us peace of mind knowing our daughter is going to a childminder who really shows they love what they do.
The space itself involves most of the downstairs, with a lovely garden for the kids too, with outside play and toys. The children have a dedicated dining area in the kitchen, and loads of toys to choose from in the living room.
We couldnāt be happier with our choice to send our child to Lisaās happy home. If youāre thinking of sending your child, we highly recommend!

I honestly couldnāt recommend Eliza enough! She is such a kind, caring and wonderful childminder who is absolutely amazing with my little girl. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing she is in such safe, loving and nurturing hands.
Eliza takes the children on lots of lovely outings and adventures, giving them opportunities to explore, learn and experience new things. She also provides healthy, nutritious meals and snacks, which is so important to me. Her safeguarding is excellent, and I always feel confident that my little girl is safe, happy and well cared for.
Itās clear how much love, care and effort Eliza puts into what she does, and she truly goes above and beyond for the children in her care. Finding someone you can trust with your child is so important, and I feel incredibly lucky to have found her.
Thank you, Eliza, for everything you do. You are an absolutely fantastic childminder, and I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for someone caring, trustworthy and dedicated to their childās happiness and development. ā¤ļø
We placed my son into this nursery for a year before he started reception in the hopes it would prepare him for the transition to primary school. It definitely helped as now he is in Reception, the transition has been very smooth and enjoyable.
The staff at the nursery are passionate about what they do, they provide great experiences and environments and have the childrenās interests at the forefront of their learning. My son particularly enjoyed Forest School and trips to the local allotments. The children are also included in all school events such as sports day and world book day.
I would recommend this nursery to anyone that is looking for a space that their child feels safe, respected and their needs met.
I would definitely recommend Susyanne and Childdreams! ā¤ļø My daughter attended Childdreams, and we had a very positive experience. The food was always excellent, and it was lovely to know she was in a welcoming environment. Iām happy to recommend Childdreams to other parents looking for childcare. Wishing Susyanne lots of success with her lovely business! š
Fran babysat our baby son (starting at 9 months) a couple times a week for a few hours for several months and now occasionally when we go out in the evenings. (Heās now almost 2.) Fran has been wonderful with our son! He is always full of smiles when she arrives! She is great with kids, but also incredibly reliable and responsible, which was really important for me since he was so young when she started working with us. It was so nice for me to know I could trust her, which set my mind at ease. Iād highly recommend Fran for anyone looking for a babysitter. Youāll be lucky to have her!

My son attended the nursery for a year before starting in reception. It was the best thing we could've done for him. He settled in straight away as the staff were so kind and welcoming and I felt confident that he was being well looked after.
The nursery has lots of fantastic facilities and the staff are always thinking up creative and educational activities for the kids to do.
My son always came home from nursery happy and he couldn't wait to go back the next day.
The staff kept parents up to date on all the fun things the kids had been up to and were always available to speak with parents if needed.
We definitely recommend this nursery to any parent!
We feel incredibly lucky to have found Husina.
We had her 2-3 days a week to help when my babies turned 7 months. She was patient with them and I loved how she engages them with songs, sensory play as well as other age-appropriate activities. One time I watched her get on the floor and crawled across the house with them. You can tell that Husina loves babies.
Looking after twins is a whole different game to singleton but Husina gave it a good shot. We started off supporting her during naps, meal times and nappy changes but over a short period of 2 months, she evolved to managing most of it alone.
My babies are happy when they see her coe through the door and I can't wait to see how their interactions unfold as my babies get older.
I also appreciate her flexibility when we needed additional days or nights.
Whilst I do work from home, I have peace of mind that my babies are in good hands with Husina.
Daniela has been looking after my children for over a half year now, once or twice a week. She picks them up from school, takes them home, goes through the day's routines and keeps their minds and hands busy.
I am a working single mother with 2 children so she is a godsend for me.
I have been looking for an adaptable babysitter for months before I found her and I have to say, she is just what I needed.
My children love her, which is not surprising as she is very warm hearted. She has years of experience with children in official setting, plus her personal ones as well. She is not set in her ways and is willing to change things about if neccessary and gives constant feedback on what they are doing, with my permission sending me pictures of activities and debriefs me on all that went down during the day when I get home.
She knows clearly what she needs to do and how to go about it.
I have only ever had family members helping me out with the children before and seeing how engaging she is with them, keeping them active, while still sticking to the rules, fills me with so much joy. I can only recommend her.
Absolutely brilliant and so understanding!
We canāt thank her enough for all her help during such a difficult time. She was so understanding and flexible with her availability when we were struggling to find childcare while bringing our new baby into the world. She was so reassuring throughout and absolutely brilliant with the kids, which put our minds at ease at a time when we really needed it. Weāre so grateful for her kindness, support and flexibility and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for childcare!
Laura is amazing with my two girls 4 and 1. She has been flexible when necessary coming in early, staying late, driving the girls to activities, and always sparking curiosity and learning through visits to the park, baking, and crafts. She is ever so gentle and kind and I grew to completely trust her with the well being of my two children. I always reach out to her, when I have childcare needs and she responds promptly even if it is not something she can be available for due to other commitments. So anyone would be lucky to use her services if they can.
Jo has looked after my daughter since she was 9 months old and she absolutely loves going. She always comes home so happy, confident and relaxed, which is lovely to see.
Jo has been such a support to our whole family, not just my daughter. Sheās made us feel so at ease, and it means so much knowing my daughter is happy and cared for while sheās there. I honestly canāt recommend Jo enough!
Our family have been with Nina for 4 years now and have loved the experience. Our son thoroughly enjoyed his 3 years at Nina's and is now in school, but our daughter continues loving life there. Nina and the team have provided a safe, nurturing, fun, and warm home from home for our children. Thanks to Nina and team, our son flourished during his time there in those crucial first years of life; he left Ninas and started school a happy, fun and curious little boy. The consistency of care and love that they give means our children have always felt safe and happy there. They have developed strong, loving bonds with the team, and wonderful friendships with the other children there. It was always so much fun to hear the names of the different children my son played with as he started developing friendships.
Nina and team also go out of their way to support the families of the children they work with - they are flexible and always willing to help out where they can. It has always been reassuring to know that our children were in a safe and loving environment when our family has gone through some particularly challenging times. We felt looked after by Nina and the team when we most needed it, and for that I will always be truly grateful.
Our son's transition to school has been smooth, and I attribute a lot of that down to the wonderful start to life he had at Nina's. Our daughter is similarly becoming confident and curious, and we look forward to seeing how the rest of her time at Nina's pans out (and thankful to not have to say a final farewell to Nina and her team quite yet!).
Thank you Nina and team for the wonderful work you do!
