My son has been with GMB for three months now, and it has been the most pleasant and reassuring experience. He genuinely enjoys going and is always greeted with a smile on his face each morning when he’s dropped off. I was initially very nervous about leaving my son with any childcare provider, but GMB has completely put my mind at ease. She is a truly caring, kind, and attentive woman, and I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend her to anyone seeking a safe and nurturing childcare environment for their children.
Naila is a very kind and responsible person. She takes very good care of my daughters. They enjoy staying with her and they are always feel safe and happy. I highly recommend her!
Juilette is a brilliant tutor for my son. Despite his young age Juilette is able to capture his attention for the full hour, and tailors the sessions for him. He has grown loads under her guidance and this has been picked up by the school. He thoroughly enjoys his maths sessions and looks forward to them every week. She really puts the children at the heart of her planning. Couldn’t recommend enough.
My son went to Micky from 10 months old and it was the best start for him.
Micky taught him so much and he always looked forward to going there, even now he has great memories during his time with Micky.
Micky is great with the children and understand their needs.
I highly recommend wonderful Micky 😊
Nanny Hannah is truly amazing. I have three young children who are full of energy and can be quite challenging at times, yet Hannah handles them with such ease and understanding. She has a wonderful ability to help regulate their emotions and always makes them feel calm, safe, and happy.
Hannah has fitted into our family seamlessly, and it’s hard to imagine finding anyone as special as her. She is incredibly kind, patient, and loving with the children, and she consistently goes above and beyond in everything she does. We feel so lucky to have her.
We absolutely recommend Renata; she has been absolutely incredible for our child’s growth and happiness. From day one, she has created a warm, nurturing environment that feels like a second home, yet is perfectly designed to be a stimulating and developing space.
Her knowledge of the EYFS framework is truly impressive. She doesn’t just 'watch' the children; she intentionally guides their development, ensuring they are hitting milestones through play and engagement. We are also so impressed by her commitment to health by growing her own fruit and vegetables in her allotment to provide the children with fresh, nutritious meals.
What truly sets her apart is how she bridges the gap between her setting and our home. She takes a genuine interest in what we are doing at home and thoughtfully incorporates those interests and themes into her daily activities. Furthermore, she has been an invaluable support to us, offering expert guidance on how to continue that development and learning at home.
She is a fantastic professional and a wonderful person who is always thinking about the child first. She has made such a huge difference in our lives.
Carmel is a warm, fun and caring childminder to our children. We are very grateful to her.
She started with our eldest when he was 2.5 years (he's now in Year 1). He had not enjoyed his time in nursery but from the first day with Carmel he was happy and quickly developed a close bond with her. We're lucky that our second is now with her and has beem for 1.5 years.
Something we really appreciate is that the children get to do all sorts of things with her, both inside her home and out and about. Taking the bus to Children's Groups, Library, Museums, Soft Play, City Farms, The Local Community Garden (Allotments), Parks, etc. This was a massive plus for us since our experience of Nursery was that children stay in the same place most of the time.
Her home set up is great, she cooks with the kids, does arts and crafts and has plenty of toys and games to keep the children engaged. She has helped our children potty train and get introduced to phonics and numbers.
Carmel feels more like family than anything else, which is a lovely thing for nursery aged children - they need a safe and caring place.
I have known this provider for over 10 years and have no hesitation entrusting my children to her care or recommending her to those looling for childcare. She is extremely reliable, caring and very safety conscious. Her wealth of experience with nursery and school age children is clear in the care that she delivers. I have also found that she tries to be as flexible as possible and is always quick to reply.
I am not over exaggerating when I say Liz has changed our families lives. Liz supported us in getting our 14 month old to sleep, a task we never thought would be possible but she managed it with ease. He is now sleeping 12 plus hours a night and we not only feel more confident but we have our evenings back! Liz didn’t stop there though and has supported us with naps and checked in to see how everything is going since. What struck me about Liz was how caring she was for my son, she truly cared about him and how he was feeling as well as us. Thankyou for everything Liz!
My little one really enjoys attending Gilly's Gigglepots. He settled very well into the setting and had some settling in sessions to support this. Gilly is a happy and fun soul and is so enthusiastic, she was born to care for children. She has such a kind and caring personality. My child adores her and has made some lovely friendships. Gilly also sends lots of photos throughout the day which is very reassuring. Thanks Gilly for everything you do x
Lois popped in for a pre-meeting and stayed an hour just being amazing.
Turned up at an early start 7am to look after my son - a big days care!
She had him playing with minecraft blocks, roleplay and KPop demonhunter songs, then played Dobe helping his pattern recognition.
After lunch it was hide and seek inside, and then they went for a lovely walk in the snowy park playing nerf hide and seek.
After snack was pattern 2D math challenge and drawing challenge.
Quitely an amazing day that I was very jealous of!
It was lovely coming home to a happy child, tidied house and two very tired people after a day of play!!!
Thank you Lois, your time with R was a gift.
Our child has attended Timeless Montessori, run by Annabel, for nearly a year now, and we continue to be impressed by the quality of childcare provided.
From the beginning, Annabel was quick to demonstrate a deep understanding of education at Early Years. Her breadth of knowledge, passion for teaching, and emotional intelligence put her at the top of our list: we were very pleased to be able to secure a place, especially since we made contact with her after our initial first choice fell through. Ironically, we're very glad: the provision at Timeless Montessori is considerably better than what we had seen elsewhere. We we also provided with policies, safeguarding information, and all other statutory documentation in advance of agreeing a place, which added to the level of professionalism that continues to be upheld.
Annabel applies the early years curriculum in a tailored and targeted manner: she finds opportunities to support the development of our child's weaknesses, and enhance the development of their strengths. Our child has made considerable jumps in their personal, social, and emotional development, as well as their physical development, communication, and language skills.
We would not hesitate to recommend Annabel and Timeless Montessori, and do so within our social circle.
We were looking for a childminder for our daughter and finally found Naila .My daughter quickly settled with and her and happy with her service .Highly recommended.
As parents, leaving your child in someone else’s care is one of the biggest decisions you will ever make. We entrusted our daughter, Abi, to Phoebe when she was just over one year old, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions we have ever made. She spent almost two years in Phoebe’s care, and the impact this has had on her development is immeasurable.
Abi learned so many new skills, grew in confidence, and felt truly loved and secure. Phoebe, together with Akos and Esi, cared for her as if she were their own. Abi would genuinely not be the same little girl today without their patience, encouragement, and constant support.
One thing we will always treasure is the thousands of photos Phoebe shared with us, capturing Abi’s everyday moments, milestones, and happy memories. These pictures mean so much to us and are something we will keep forever as a reminder of this very special time in her life.
Every day we left Abi knowing she was safe, happy, and surrounded by warmth and kindness, which gave us complete peace of mind as parents. We will be forever grateful to Phoebe, as well as to Akos and Esi, for everything they have done for our daughter. We cannot recommend Phoebe highly enough to any parent looking for not just a childminder, but a second family for their child.
It’s with a mix of sadness and immense gratitude that we write this review, Noovi worked with our family for a full year until last December, and we’re already missing her dearly as she moves on to a full-time role.
I hired her when I was heavily pregnant and feeling overwhelmed about preparing for our new baby’s arrival. From day one, she was more than just a babysitter , she became my rock. When our little one arrived, she was there through every sleepless night, offering calm support, expert guidance on feeding, and ensuring both baby and I were cared for. Her patience, warmth, and practical knowledge made those tricky early weeks and months so much more manageable.
Every day we knew our baby was in the best possible hands, and her reliability and kindness gave us total peace of mind.
We can’t thank her enough for everything she’s done for our family, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, skilled, and trustworthy babysitter. We’ll miss her so much, but we’re thrilled to see her take this next step in her career!
We had our third child after a sizeable gap in November and were fortunate that Ellie had some time available to night nurse for us. Right from the start we were impressed by her no-nonsense and confident style, which combined first rate care and attention to our newborn’s needs with a healthy dose of advice thrown in for all sorts of situations. It’s a mark of how good Ellie is that she taught us things even though we had done this twice before! We would wholeheartedly recommend her for childcare - she’s a whizz with babies and interacted well with our older kids as well. If you see a gap in her schedule our advice is…take it!
