My son absolutely loves going to Fatima’s He started in January and settled in really quickly. When I go to pick him up, he never wants to leave, which says it all about how happy he is there.
He’s always well fed, happy and so well looked after. As both my husband and I work full-time, it’s such a relief knowing our son is in safe and caring hands. We never have to worry about him because we know he’s being looked after so well.
We’re so grateful to Fatima for the care and love she gives our son. I couldn’t recommend her enough! ❤️
Becky was my daughter's childminder from age 1 until she was 10. I can't recommend her highly enough. She was brilliant at engaging with her and really getting to know her when she was tiny all the way through as she grew. My daughter always enjoyed the welcoming setting and the fun things they did, from imaginative play, to going on trips out and about and in nature. She gave me complete confidence that my child was well looked after and happy while I was at work.
Charlie and Emily have been hugely supportive to our family and we could not be happier with the care that they give our children.
Our 20 month old has been with Charlie and Emily for 8 months and is thriving. We drop her off in the morning knowing that she is receiving the best possible care. She suffered with separation anxiety when I returned to work and would get upset when she was left with anyone other than us. Charlie and Emily soon won her over and really put my mind at ease which hugely assisted with my return to work.
Charlie also assisted with wrap around care for our eldest and she thoroughly enjoyed her time with them and would happily regale us with stories of her time there.
Charlie really does offer a platinum service providing children with a nurturing, caring and fun environment enabling them to thrive. The children are constantly creating artwork, engaging in outdoor, creative and messy play, attending playgroups and learning new skills. She is extremely accommodating, experienced, warm and reliable and keeps us regularly informed of their adventures and provides helpful developmental updates.
We don’t have family in the local area but our girls see Charlie and Emily as an extension of their family.
We feel extremely fortunate to have found Charlie. It really is a home from home setting.

We arranged for Lisa to look after our two-year-old son at relatively short notice, and we couldn't have been happier with her! Our son was immediately at ease with Lisa, who took great care of him for a couple of hours. Communication with Lisa was excellent from the outset, and she also sent us photo updates while we were away. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Lisa and will definitely book her again next time we're in Glasgow!

I cannot recommend Keturah highly enough. She has been part of our family for the past two years and has been an invaluable source of support throughout that time.
Keturah is exceptionally professional, polite, attentive, organised and dependable. She approaches her role with genuine care and dedication, and I have always been able to trust and rely on her wholeheartedly, which, as a parent, is absolutely priceless.
She is wonderful with children, attentive to their individual needs and committed to ensuring they are happy, comfortable and well cared for. She also prepares delicious, wholesome and nutritious meals and snacks, always taking care to provide a healthy, balanced diet.
One of Keturah’s greatest qualities is her flexibility and willingness to accommodate our family’s changing needs, often at very short notice. She is proactive, considerate and takes initiative, making day-to-day family life that much easier.
Beyond her professionalism, Keturah is a genuinely lovely person. She is respectful, approachable and a pleasure to have around. Her reliability and consistency have given me tremendous peace of mind, knowing my children are in safe and capable hands.
Keturah has been a real asset to our household, and we are incredibly grateful for the care, time and dedication she has given our family.
Any family would be extremely fortunate to have her. I would recommend her wholeheartedly and without hesitation.
We've been so happy having Priya look after our children. She is wonderful and has built a special relationship with both of them and knows how to have lots of fun with them! I completely trust her and if only she lived nearer she would be our full time childminder too. Thank you Priya, we can't wait to have you back!

We’ve had the absolute pleasure of having Charlie care for our two daughters, and we couldn’t recommend her highly enough.
We were new to the area when we were fortunate enough to be recommended Charlie. From the very beginning, she made us feel so welcome as parents, and it was clear how much she genuinely cared about our children.
Our youngest has been with Charlie since we moved to the area, with Charlie also providing wraparound care for our eldest, who started at Grand Avenue. Having previously used a private nursery for our eldest in the Earlsfield area, we have really noticed the difference that having someone who cares just as much about your children as you do can make to their happiness, confidence and development.
We regularly receive updates on all the wonderful activities they get up to, and rarely a day goes by without them being out adventuring, exploring and discovering something new. Charlie creates such a fun, nurturing and stimulating environment, and it’s lovely to see how much the girls enjoy their time with her.
Most importantly, we have complete peace of mind knowing our girls are so well cared for, happy and having the best time. Charlie is a truly special childminder, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for someone who will love and care for their children as if they were her own.
Our three-year-old has been in Charlie’s care since September, and we honestly couldn’t be happier with the experience. She has settled in so beautifully and is always so happy and excited to go in each day.
Charlie, alongside her assistant Emily, are incredibly friendly, welcoming and approachable. They go above and beyond to listen to both the children and their parents, taking the time to understand and accommodate each child’s individual interests, likes and dislikes.
Our daughter regularly comes home excitedly telling us all about the wonderful things she has been doing throughout the day, which is so lovely to hear. We also really appreciate how convenient and thoughtful Charlie makes her childminding service. She ensures our daughter has nutritious meals and everything she needs to feel happy, comfortable and well looked after throughout the day.
We genuinely couldn’t recommend Charlie and Emily highly enough. Their care, kindness and dedication really shine through, and most importantly, our daughter absolutely loves being there. We couldn’t ask for more!
Claire
Our daughter was the first baby Carly looked after when she opened, and we’re so happy we chose her. Carly has been warm and welcoming from the start, and we really appreciate how reliable and flexible she is. Her setting is lovely and homely, always clean, and has plenty of toys and activities for the children.
Our daughter is always so happy to go to Carly’s. Even during half term, she kept saying, “Go to Carly!” It made us smile hearing how much she wanted to go back.
Her speech has come on so much since she started. I love that Carly plans themed weeks around topics like animals, giving the children new things to explore and talk about as they play. Carly also cooks fresh meals, which our little one seems to really enjoy.
We get updates throughout the day on the Tiny app, and Carly posts photos every day so we can see what the children have been up to. It’s lovely to get a little glimpse into our daughter’s day and also so reassuring for us parents.
We’re really grateful for the care Carly gives our daughter and would definitely recommend her to other families 🥰 ❤️

Louise has been looking after my baby for over a year now. She is kind, thoughtful and very attentive to the children. My two year old loves her and always talks about her at home. We are so grateful for Louise - she has taught her so much and really cares about her. She makes her day so fun and dances and sings with them which makes me happy at pick up! :) xx

Christine has been looking after my son since he was one, it was very difficult to find someone we feel comfortable with and Christine has been the most amazing person, she cares about the little ones just like her own.
We couldn’t be happier with the care and attention our child receives. From day one, Christine has been so caring, patient, friendly and professional. Playtime was always fun and educational, meals were prepared with love and care.
It’s such a relief knowing our little one is in a safe, happy and loving environment. The dedication, kindness and effort she puts into looking after the children really show, and we truly appreciate everything she does.
Thank you for treating our child with so much love and care. We feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful childminder and would highly recommend her to any family looking for someone they can trust. ❤️ my son has always referred Christine as his auntie and he loves her.
Zoe has cared for our little girl from the age of 12 months right through to 4 years old, and we honestly couldn’t have wished for a more wonderful childminder. From day one, Zoe has provided such a loving, nurturing and welcoming home-from-home environment where our daughter has always felt safe, happy and truly cared for.
Over the years, we have watched our little girl blossom into a happy, confident and independent child, and we know that Zoe has played such a huge part in that. The love, patience, kindness and attention she gives the children is truly special. We have always had complete peace of mind knowing our daughter was in such caring and capable hands.
Zoe goes above and beyond, treating the children as if they were her own, and nothing is ever too much trouble. We are so grateful for all the wonderful memories, experiences and care she has given our daughter over the last three years.
We have had Harley now for around 3 months and we absolutely adore her.
She is so good for my children and with them.
My toddler looks for her and follows her everywhere and my autistic son is also so attached to Harley.
Harley is respectful, reliable, trustworthy, firm, playful, friendly, smart, helpful, caring and follows all instructions and rules very well.
What I love about her most is she has always used initiative esp with kids activities and learning time.
Our home feels incomplete when she isn’t here and I would love to have Harley forever.
Cassie did a fantastic job of looking after my son from nine months to 18 months when we moved to a different area. He took to her immediately and she was warm and loving and so much fun. They spent a lot of time outside which was very important for us and the whole experience was easy and enjoyable.
I honestly couldn’t recommend this tutor enough! The progress made has been fantastic, and the patience, dedication and encouragement throughout have made such a difference. We couldn’t be happier with the experience and the results. I would highly recommend to any parent looking for a tutor who genuinely makes a difference. We will definitely be returning for our other children. Thank you so much! ❤️
We honestly couldn't ask for a better childminder! ❤️
My son has been attending since Clair, Nicky, Ethan and Maria first opened, and he absolutely adores it there. He is always so excited to go, which says everything about how happy and comfortable he feels with them.
They look after him wonderfully and treat him with so much care and attention. They provide three meals a day as well as snacks, take the children on all sorts of exciting trips and adventures, and even go above and beyond by teaching them how to swim!
It's lovely knowing that while we're at work, he's not just being looked after but is having fun, learning new skills, making memories and enjoying himself.
A huge thank you to Clair, Nicky, Ethan and Maria for everything you do. We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful setting for him. You can really see how much love, effort and dedication goes into what you do.
We couldn't recommend you highly enough! ❤️
We honestly couldn’t recommend Karishma highly enough! She has become such a wonderful and valued part of our family’s routine, and we feel incredibly lucky to have her.
She helps us with the morning routine, getting the children up, dressed, fed and ready for school and nursery, and making sure they get there safely and on time. She also babysits in the evenings, including bedtime routine, which means we can go out and genuinely relax, knowing the children are happy, safe and in the best possible hands.
The children absolutely adore her, and we feel completely comfortable and confident leaving them with her, which is priceless as a parent. She is so caring, reliable, thoughtful and proactive, and she doesn’t just look after the children — she goes above and beyond in every way. She helps with meals, keeps the house in order and always seems to do those little extra things that make such a difference to family life.
Having someone we trust so completely, who the children love and who makes our lives that little bit easier, is invaluable. She is so much more than a babysitter; she is a real helping hand and a genuinely lovely person to have around our family. We would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring and exceptional with children.
Thank you Karishma
Not only was leshas professionalism in caring for my son exemplary, she was an absolute legend and friend and so chilled and patient with my little boy who is autistic that it made my night so much better , she was bubbly fun and positive and organised and my son loved her!
