Roxy - Letchworth Garden City
Reviewed

Roxy looked after my daughter a couple of years ago and we had a brilliant experience. She loved the outdoor space and had loads of lovely experiences like feeding the rabbits, seeing the ducklings hatch and many more. Roxy provided such a warm home-from-home environment and it was lovely for her to mix with children of different ages too. Would wholeheartedly recommend Roxy as a childminder :)

My son loved his time with Freya at Caterpillars. He did so much brilliant stuff and Freya was great at keeping me updated with what they were doing. He really enjoyed it and felt instantly comfortable and happy in the setting
Thank you Freya

I was in Sheffield for an event, so hired Jen to take care of my newborn for the evening in my hotel room. She was flexible and reliable. I would hire again if in the area.

Sophie has provided evening childcare for us for our toddler (under 2). She is great with kids and we can head out the house knowing our little one is safely looked after. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for childcare/babysitting.

Marzena - Basildon
Reviewed

Marzena, is amazing, her care and love for the children is beyond what we could have hoped for, they are never bored and always busy with lots of playing, learning and trips out. Absolutely gutted that our time is nearing its end with my little one going to school in September, I feel like no amount of time here would be enough. I highly recommend using Marzena for your childcare, I wish we had been able to use her from the beginning of our childcare journey. Absolutely 1 of a kind ❤️

Jennifer - Romford

Jenny is truly the best caregiver we could have ever imagined for our daughter. From the moment we first visited, she welcomed us with warmth and showed us a setting that is perfectly prepared for children. Her home is full of warmth, safe, and provides a wonderfully educational environment.

As a vegan family, it was important to us that our child’s meals align with our values, and Jenny not only accommodates this but goes far beyond our expectations. Our little one has grown so much in her care. The setting allows children of different ages to learn from one another—older children help teach the younger ones, and the younger ones pick up new skills quickly. The children genuinely love each other, and we can see this in the daily updates and pictures Jenny shares.

Our daughter adores being at Jenny’s. We are a family that speaks three languages, and English is not spoken at home, yet our daughter has learned it entirely through Jenny’s care while continuing to operate in our home languages. Jenny is always positive, warm, kind, and thoughtful—offering explanations, guidance, and advice whenever needed.

The activities at Jenny’s are amazing. Children visit other groups, libraries, parks, and even go bowling. Arts and crafts are a regular part of the day, and our daughter comes home with new creations almost every day. She is learning discipline and beautiful values—care for others, understanding where food comes from, respect for nature, and the wonderful principles of a vegan lifestyle.

Every day, our daughter asks if she is going to Jenny’s before bedtime, which says it all! She loves all the children there, and we couldn’t be happier with the care, love, and education Jenny provides. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a nurturing, educational, and joyful environment for their child.

We hired Lisa in November I believe. She was ok with the kids , however despite saying she’s a professional nanny, she was giving us plenty of excuses that she cannot come this Thursday, next Friday and so on although we have always updated her regularly. I find this very uncomfortable and unprofessional specially when you make your full schedule based on that person…very disappointing

amelia - Newcastle

After reading other people's reviews, positive and negative, I've decided to get in touch with Amelia to support my daughter and son. She seemed lovely, which I'm sure she is. She replied promptly to my messages and we even spoke over the phone. Upon her request, I went with her suitable time slot and got a baby sitter to watch my two disabled children to accommodate the meeting as I'm not able to do so without this support.

I was really eager to meet her but despite going with her preferred time, she didn't turn up. I kept texting her but had no reply. I've tried her number and it kept saying that I've dialed an incorrect number. I even tried calling her WhatsApp number but it kept saying that it's unavailable. I was so confused as I spoke to her using the same number a couple of days ago and it worked fine. After seeing that she was active on the Childcare app, I tried contacting her here, but she still did not respond to any of my queries. I can understand that she might have changed her mind but that's not professional and ethical at all. if you've arranged a time to meet someone then at least have a decency to let the other person know that you're not interested, which is absolutely fine as everyone is free to make their own decision.

I wish her all the best but if she's reading this then please try to be considerate of others time and emotions. A lot of parents come here to look for support as they already have many struggles in their lives.

Thanks

Belen is really lovely and welcoming. My son has loved being with her. She has a great setting and the children take part in multiple activities. The amount of time spent outdoors has helped my son thrive, he really looks forward to going.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our son receives here. He’s 23 months old and has been attending for about a year now, and he absolutely loves it. The variety of activities, the structured daily schedule, and the balance of playtime and garden time keep him engaged and excited to go each day.

One thing that really reassures us is the level of care and attention given to his severe food allergies. The staff take this very seriously, and it gives us real peace of mind knowing he is safe and well looked after. It’s also clear they genuinely care about the little ones, we know he’s comforted and supported whenever he needs it.

He is learning so much during his time here at OG and constantly comes home with new skills and words he’s been taught by the staff. Little things, like bringing us his dirty plate after meals, show just how much he’s developing with their guidance.

We’re so happy with his care and would highly recommend this setting to any parents looking for a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for their child.

Amelia - Camberley

My son is autistic, hyperactive, and has a short attention span. Amelia engaged with him very well and quickly built a positive connection. She kept the activities structured, engaging, and enjoyable, adapting them to suit his needs.

She was patient, used an appropriate tone and clear language, and managed to keep him motivated throughout. She was also punctual and communicated well with us. I would highly recommend her, especially for children with additional needs.

Pearl - Corby

I cannot recommend Pearl highly enough. She is a warm, positive, and genuinely caring person who responds thoughtfully to the needs of both adults and children. From the very beginning, she made us feel comfortable and welcome. Pearl is incredibly approachable and supportive. She always responds quickly and in a timely manner whenever something is needed, which gives great peace of mind as a parent. Communication with her is easy and natural — you can talk to her freely and openly without hesitation. She creates an environment where you feel secure, understood, and respected.
She has supported my two children with great care and patience. Pearl has been especially helpful during times when adaptation was needed, handling situations calmly and professionally while always putting the children’s well-being first.
We are truly grateful for her dedication and kindness.

Seedlings Tale SN - Swindon

Poppy is so wonderfully loving and caring. She is a real natural with children of all ages. She creates a warm, nurturing environment where our children feel completely safe and happy. Poppy is full of engaging activities that support learning and development through play and exploration. She takes the time to truly understand each child’s personality and needs.
She is always so welcoming and polite whilst also encouraging the children’s own good manners and kindness. Her communication is excellent — we’re always kept informed about daily activities and any little moments that make us smile. It gives us complete peace of mind knowing our children are not only well cared for but genuinely cared about.
We cannot recommend her highly enough. She always goes above and beyond and we are so grateful for the love and patience that she shows. She truly is exceptional at what she does. Our children will forever hold a special place for her in their hearts.

Sarah has helped out with ad hoc childcare and daytime babysitting for my energetic 3.5 year old and 1.5 year old over the last few months. I never have to worry about them when they are with Sarah as she has the skills and energy to manage their different needs. My little one even learned Sarah's name during her last visit which shows she's a big fan!

TINA - London Borough Of Lambeth
Reviewed

I would like to recommend Ms Tina with all my heart. She is, without a doubt, the best nanny my daughter has ever had. Since being with her, my daughter has learned colors, the alphabet, and so many other things. But most importantly, she feels safe, loved, and happy.

I have never felt so at peace leaving my daughter with someone. She is such a kind, caring, and patient lady. You can truly see that she loves what she does.

Every time we arrive at her house, my daughter gets so excited. She walks in happily, and that says everything to me. Knowing that my daughter is happy and well cared for is priceless.

I recommend her 100%. She is truly a wonderful person.

Sherise is absolutely wonderful with my son, and they have so much fun together. She is incredibly reliable and helpful; if I ever need her to take him to school early because of my work schedule, she always says 'no worries' and is happy to help. She’s polite, professional, and excellent at the school runs. Knowing he is in such caring hands makes my life so much easier—I can’t recommend her enough!!
