Cindy is a lovely, welcoming but very professional individual. My son has additional needs and i had to leave him with a sitter for the first time which I was terrified about. She gave me so much reassurance, regular updates through the day including photos and the environment in which she childminds is clean, safe and has resources such as toys which is lovely . She is thorough with details before, during and after the service and would definitely use her services again.
She has looked after my two children, aged seven and three, and we have always had such a lovely experience with her. She is warm, caring, patient, and very attentive to both of their needs.
My children always felt happy, safe, and comfortable with her, which gave me great peace of mind. I could leave them in her care feeling relaxed and confident, knowing they were being well looked after.
She is kind, trustworthy, and wonderful with children of different ages. I would happily recommend her to any family looking for a caring and reliable childcare provider.
Dani is a wonderful childminder, my 2 year old adores her and I trust her fully. He always has a lovely time with her, and comes back happy and well cared for. Dani communicates really well with me and is professional and friendly. I couldn't recommend her highly enough.

My son has been going to Val’s for the past 9 months and we couldn’t be happier with the care and support he receives. He absolutely loves going and gets so excited to see her.
He enjoys all the activities they do together, especially going out, dancing and colouring. We have seen such a lovely improvement in his speech and communication since he started attending, and his sharing and social skills have come on so much too.
It is so lovely to see how happy and settled he is, and we feel completely confident knowing he is being cared for in such a warm, nurturing and fun environment. We are so grateful for everything she does for him and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dedicated childminder.

Mansi watched our 2.5-year-old daughter for two mornings while my partner and I were visiting family near Shefford. She took time before the first morning to talk to us over Zoom and explain her approach, and we immediately felt comfortable with her looking after our daughter. Within a few minutes of meeting Mansi, our daughter was completely at ease and had a wonderful time during her mornings with her - she even kept talking about how much fun she’d had with her for a week afterwards! We could tell Mansi had looked after her with a lot of care and professionalism, and we won’t hesitate to contact her again next time we’re visiting the area.
Marta was so gentle and flexible with introducing my daughter to her first childcare setting 2 years ago. She always comes up with interesting visits, and manages to communicate fairly and gently any issues the children may have (sharing, different personalities, toilet training) so well, and accommodates as much as possible to what your child needs. We have made such good friends with the other children, the family and with Marta, that I am incredibly sad we are aging out of our weekly days with you.
I would recommend Linda she’s a very nice person and was amazing with my child. she has helped my child a lot. Linda is very helpful my child was always happy with Linda. I’m very grateful of Linda amazing childminder. Thanks to Linda my child will be starting school in September she helped a lot when I asked question about school application.
In the future I will know where to find a great childminder.
Thanks Linda for taking care of my child
God bless you 💕

Sara looked after my two daughters with so much care, kindness and patience. They loved spending time with her and always felt happy and safe. My children absolutely adore her and I always had trusted her.
We have now moved out from London, otherwise my youngest daughter would definitely be going to Sara's childminding setting.
I would highly recommend Sara to any family looking for a caring, reliable and trustworthy childminder. Your little one will be in great hands. 😊

Sara took wonderful care of my baby. She was kind, patient, and attentive, and I always felt my baby was safe and well looked after with her. She was reliable, caring, and communicated well throughout. I truly appreciate all her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy caregiver.
I am delighted to recommend Natasha, who has been with my family for the past seven years.
She is exceptionally trustworthy, reliable and compassionate. Throughout her time with us she has cared for my daughter with genuine love, patience, and professionalism. She is punctual, hardworking, and consistently goes above and beyond in everything she does.
I found her through this website and I am glad she was available all the days for us. She helped us with drops and pick ups, stayed during my extremely busy oncalls and training period. During the Covid pandemic as well she was able to help us.
Over the past seven years, she has become an invaluable part of our family. I have complete confidence in her and would not hesitate to recommend her to any family seeking a dedicated and outstanding nanny.
We are ending this journey only because we are relocating to another country. I would have continued to have her until my daughter completed high school.
Wish her all the best for future, we will miss her.
After searching for the right childminder for quite some time, I was so grateful to find Ranjit and the team at Shining Stars. One of the things I appreciated most was their flexibility in accommodating my changing work schedule. As someone who doesn’t have fixed office days, it meant so much that Ranjit was always willing to adjust my son’s attendance whenever space was available.
Since joining Shining Stars, I have seen such a positive transformation in my son. He has become much more confident, talks so much more, and is always excited to go to daycare. Seeing him so happy and eager every morning gives me great reassurance that he is in the right place.
The care and support from Ranjit and her team have been exceptional. They keep the children engaged in fun, creative, and educational activities, and my son always comes home proudly showing us what he has made or learned during the day.
I am especially grateful for the support they gave with potty training. It’s not something every childcare setting is willing to take on, but Ranjit and her team happily worked with us, providing consistency and encouragement that made a huge difference.
Finding Shining Stars has truly been a blessing. Ranjit and her wonderful team have given me complete peace of mind, knowing that my son is safe, happy, loved, and well cared for. I cannot thank them enough for everything they have done, and I would wholeheartedly recommend Shining Stars to any parent looking for a caring, nurturing, and trustworthy childminder.

Gene has been an absolute godsend both to me and my two children (Now Ages 10 years & 19 Months). We have been working together now for the last year and Gene now feels part of our little family, she is patient, kind, considerate & attentive. Gene is thoughtful, intuitive, works well on her own initiative, is always on time and adaptable. I often work unpredictable/variable hours and Gene is always as accommodating as she can be even at last minute.

Leaving Little Achievers Childcare as our son starts school is truly a bittersweet moment for us. I cannot put in to words how fast the time has gone and how far our little boy has come!
From the very first day, our son was welcomed at the setting with warmth, patience, and genuine love. It was clear to me from the first time, that this childminder poured all her passion and knowledge in what she does. The setting is a safe and happy place where children can truly grow, learn, and thrive.
Over the years, she has nurtured his confidence, encouraged his curiosity, and supported his social and emotional development in ways that have amazed us. Every day was filled with fun activities, creative play, fantastic outings and gentle guidance — and we’ve seen him blossom into a kind, independent, and joyful little boy.
What makes Little Achievers Childcare so special is not just her professionalism, but the way she treats each child in an individual way and provides/tackles exactly what is needed at that moment. She has been a constant source of reassurance for us as parents, sending daily lots of beautiful pictures and updates about our son. Always communicating openly and clearly as well as celebrating every milestone with us.
We feel very confident about him going to school thanks to the strong foundation he built here.
We feel incredibly lucky to have had her in our son’s early years, and we know the values and skills she’s helped instil will stay with him for life. We cannot recommend her highly enough — she is truly one in a million.
Thank you for everything. You will always have a special place in our hearts. ❤️
Our little boy Harry has been attending Hazel a day a week for just under a year. He has absolutely loved his time at her setting. Hazel provides a wonderful environment for children to develop and thrive. She provides stimulating activities, takes the children on exciting trips, and provides an all round excellent experience for the children. Our boy will miss going to her very much. He has come on leaps and bounds thanks to her. Thank you Hazel for all you’ve done. Alex & Ellie
Nesh and her team have been nothing short of exceptional.
Our daughter has attended this childcare setting since she was just five months old and is now 11 years old. I think that alone speaks volumes about how happy, settled and confident we have always felt leaving her in Nesh's care.
Over the years, our daughter attended full-time, then moved on to school drop-offs and pick-ups, and has continued to attend throughout school holidays. To her, this setting has always been a second home, and that is exactly what it has been. Every child is treated as part of the family, and she has built many wonderful friendships during her time there.
As this is likely to be her final summer needing childcare, it feels like the right time to reflect on just how significant a role Nesh and her team have played in shaping the kind, caring and confident young person she is today. She has benefited from being surrounded by older children who inspired and guided her, and then, in turn, becoming one of the older children who looked out for and supported the younger ones.
The environment Nesh has created is warm, nurturing and full of opportunities for children to learn and grow. Her team of dedicated carers shares her remarkable attention to detail and commitment to every child's wellbeing and development. The children enjoy a wide range of activities, as well as regular outings to places such as local parks and farms, creating memories and experiences they genuinely look forward to.
Communication with parents has always been excellent. Through the Baby Days app, we have received regular updates and accumulated countless photographs and memories over the years that we will treasure forever.
Most importantly, we have always known that Hope was safe, happy and well cared for. As a parent, there is no greater reassurance than that.
We are incredibly grateful to Nesh and her team for everything they have done for our daughter over the past decade. I would wholeheartedly recommend this setting to any parent looking for a loving, professional and nurturing environment for their child.
Thank you, Nesh and team, for being such an important part of our precious girl's childhood.
my son has been going over to Val’s for a year now since he turned 6 months . She has been absolutely a God sent . As a parent I could not tell you how much at ease she made the process and also how much she cares for my little one . It’s a safe and loving environment for my little one and he has been thriving and loving it .
