Duni came to look after my little one (11 months) whilst I was working from home upstairs. I could hear them playing and chatting and singing downstairs, and although I was at home to lend a hand if necessary Duni worked hard to ensure that was not necessary, and dealt with my little man in a kind and gentle fashion. We will definitely use Duni’s services again!

Lea has been our part time nanny for over 1.5years. She is reliable, kind and loving and little one enjoys lots of outdoor activities and local classes and museum trips with her. She also always makes varied and nutritious meals for him. Lea is also a great help with babysitting as and when we need it.
It's hard finding a suitable babysitter when you have 2 children with ASD. Finding Riva is like finding a unicorn! Riva is brilliant! She's already had previously babysat for a child with similar needs to my children. She gets on great with them! She's also lovely enough to help me with the ironing while the boys sleep. I highly recommend her!
Micaela was my daughter’s key worker in a nursery setting.
Absolutely beautiful lady inside and out.
Micaela is kind, caring, nurturing and adored my daughter and my daughter adored her. I will definitely be using Micaela now she is offering babysitting. Highly recommend to anyone 🌟
My 10 year old son started his tutoring sessions with Brittany 3 months ago. In them 3 months my son has progressed so much with his reading and writing and has gained a lot more confidence. Brittany personalises the sessions and asks him every week what he would like to write about the following week making it so much more enjoyable for him and keeps him engaged the whole session. Brittany also communicates really well with me about his progress and keeps me up to date with the lesson plans. Brittany is punctual, friendly and very reliable. I would 100% recommend Brittany she is a great tutor🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Twice now we have arranged to get Raquel along. The first time she let us know she was ill on the day she was to come round, she says. Fair enough, so my wife rearranged with her for today.
She was supposed to be here at 10. Just after that she messaged my wife to say she was waiting for the bus. She has ghosted us since, despite her phone ringing out. I rang her supposed “emergency contact” which it turns out is a Spanish number.
My son and wife rang me at work around 2 to tell me how sad he was. He was looking forward to asking her what colour the Spanish empire was on the map, and what their most important colony was. Yesterday he was asking how to say Spanish words such as pencil. We had spent days preparing him for her visit and he was as disappointed in his voice as I have ever heard. He was really let down in his heart by her and that’s the first time that’s happened in his five year old life.
Raquel claims an awful lot of childcare experience, working with troubled children. Maybe, but I would take it with a couple of pinches of salt.
It’s now 5pm and we havent heard anything out of her despite us both calling and leaving messages.
I just read this out to my son and asked him if he would like to add anything and he said “say ‘our child’s heart is broken’”
I earlier used it as a teaching aid and he, unprompted, told me his feelings were “sad” “frustrated” and “angry” and I’m proud of him for being able to know his feelings unprompted.

Sarah brings a wonderful level of energy and enthusiasm from the beginning of the day right through to the end. Our little girl is always thrilled to see her in the mornings, greeting her with big smiles and excited waves. Sarah consistently provides timely updates and maintains communication throughout the day.
She is especially skilled in engaging with our daughter, and we’ve noticed clear developmental progress as a result of their interactions. Sarah also offers a fantastic variety of nutritious, whole foods that encourage healthy eating habits. Her daily activities are thoughtfully planned, rich in sensory experiences, and provide meaningful opportunities for play and exploration—evident in our daughter’s growth and development.
We wholeheartedly recommend Sarah and truly appreciate the care she provides.

We couldn’t be happier with Bouncing Bunnies childminding! Lindsay provides a nurturing and engaging environment for our child, with fun activities. Communication is fantastic, and we love hearing about our child’s adventures each day. We’re so happy we found Lindsay when we did and we highly recommend to anyone looking for childcare.
We researched everywhere to find somewhere to have our little boy and we couldn’t have picked better. He has been there since he was 2yrs old, and through the care and attention of Sue and her staff has an absolutely brilliant foundation to start to now take his next steps. His development has been brilliant and he’s made some great friends. He’s always enjoyed going to Sue’s every day. He’s had great fun, had exciting days out and his learning has improved no end. We’ve found Sue helpful and friendly, she has always tried to accommodate any changes we’ve needed to make. It’s been really sad for us to leave, and we thank Sue and staff for all their care love and attention over these last years.
Stephie has been looking after my two boys aged 1 and 4 weekly for the past few months. She has been consistently reliable and my boys adore her. She thinks of fun and engaging activities for them to enjoy and is kind, patient and caring with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any other families needing extra help.

I cannot recommend Kat’s services enough. As a first-time mum, I was very nervous about putting my daughter into childcare. The thought of leaving her with someone else felt overwhelming, but from the very first communication, Kat put us completely at ease. She was so kind, supportive, and reassuring, and she took the time to really understand both my daughter’s needs and our own worries as a parents.
My daughter, who was naturally, initially upset about being in a new setting now adores her time with Kat and will ask for Kat and the other children when we are at home. It’s clear to us that she is not only comfortable with Kat, but thriving and loving her time with her. Her development has also come on in leaps and bounds since being with Kat. I feel confident that she is having fun and learning in a safe, positive and supportive environment.
We feel lucky to have found Kat’s services. Finding a childcare setting which offers such a thorough level of professional combined with kindness and a genuine passion has been a breath of fresh air and I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Sheila helped us in more ways than she will ever know, she became family to us. Sheila cared for my son from 1 week old to 7 months old and he absolutely adores her. She took the weight off my shoulders as a second time mum so I could rest, look after my daughter and most importantly avoid post natal depression, which I suffered from with my daughter. We originally booked Sheila for 6 weeks before quickly realising she was life changing and the best money we'd ever spent, so we quickly snapped her up and extended her contract for 7 months. Sheila is trustworthy, loyal, fun, loving and a hard worker. We miss her so much!

Both of my sons went to Lorraine full time and only left her setting when they started preschool at 4 years old. They really enjoyed their time with Lorraine and made good friends with the other children she was looking after.
She plans the activities she does with the children very well to help with their development and often had a theme for the day, for example Teddy Bear’s picknick, Chinese New Year, Easter and many more. My sons came home with lots of arts and crafts they had made. Lorraine communicates very well and always kept us updated on what our children were doing during the day. They also enjoyed days out with Lorraine, for example to Nation Trust places.
We couldn't have asked for a better childminder than Lorraine to look after our children and highly recommend her.
We’re thrilled to share our experience as Emily moves on to preschool! From the moment I returned to work when she was just one, Olivia has treated Emily like part of her family. Emily absolutely loves spending the day with Olivia, and she enjoys her delicious home-cooked meals. Olivia has nurtured her and taught her so much along the way, and Emily adores her. Honestly, we have been incredibly impressed with the care Olivia has provided. If you're on the lookout for a childminder, do pop by and see Olivia! The moment you step into her home, you’ll feel the warmth and comfort. It was such a relief knowing Emily was so well looked after. Thank you for everything, Olivia!
Simon has taken care of my three boys, for three years now. He is caring, always on time and the boys love having him around.
I have a son with special educational needs Simon has a positive attitude and understands
my son's needs, I always feel confident leaving my boys with Simon.
