Shini has worked with our family for six months, caring for our 3-year-old boy and 5-year-old girl. During that time, she has been consistently reliable despite our complex schedule, always punctual, and deeply committed to our children. She had worked with us every weekday as an after school nanny and regularly assisted on weekends as a babysitter.
Shini approaches her work with genuine care. In addition to childcare, she helps us daily with light housekeeping, such as cleaning the kitchen, folding laundry, tidying up, and sometimes even preparing amazing food (she loves cooking, lucky for us!).
We would highly recommend Shini to any family seeking a nanny, babysitter, or housekeeper, and would be happy to provide a reference. She has quickly become an important and trusted part of our family, and we look forward to working with her for many years to come.

Mary is an exceptional childminder. She is a strong and positive role model, and it’s clear that the children truly look up to her. One of the things we value most is how she takes the time to really understand each child as an individual — their personality, their needs, and what helps them thrive.
Her setting feels safe, nurturing, and full of thoughtful activities that support learning and confidence. Our child feels completely at ease with her, and we see the impact of her guidance every day.
We feel incredibly fortunate to have Mary in our child’s life. She is caring, professional, and genuinely dedicated to the wellbeing of the children she looks after. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family seeking outstanding childcare.

We have used Una for just 1 year now and our son absolutely loves going to their house. Most days, doesn’t want to leave!
He’s always happy and full of stories at the end of the day.
It’s clear he feels safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. This gives us complete peace of mind.
We’re so grateful for the love, patience, and kindness Una and her family gives him.

Joanne is very friendly, caring, and approachable. My son is happy and comfortable with her, which means a lot to me. He has ASN and Joanne has been very understanding and supportive. I feel confident leaving him in her care and would happily recommend her to other parents.
Skye has been amazing with my daughter Mia. I had never left her with anyone before, but Skye made me feel so comfortable straight away with her kind and welcoming nature. Mia absolutely loves being with her and always comes home happy, confident, and settled. Mia’s confidence is growing and it’s lovely seeing how much she’s learning through the activities Skye plans. I really appreciate all the photos and updates during the day and Skye is always so quick to respond if I have any questions. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

Belén started working with our family when my little one was only 3 months old and he liked her from the first moment. She has been part of our family since and took charge of all the main care duties such as of bottle feeding, weaning, sleep routines and activities. She is a fully reliable person and I always felt very comfortable leaving my little one with her, she is a lovely presence to have around and I would strongly recommend her!

We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful childminder. They provided a safe, caring, and nurturing environment where our child felt happy and secure. My son always looked forward to being picked up by Rayhana and always came home with a smile on his face.
We would highly recommend them to any parent looking for reliable, loving childcare.
We absolutely love Tuba and couldn’t be happier with the care she provides. Our daughter has been with her since she was a baby and has grown so much in confidence, speech, and mobility skills to name a few. Tuba has such a warm and kind approach and is wonderfully creative, making learning fun through play. We especially love how she regularly gets the children outdoors exploring nature and provides lovely, nutritious seasonal meals.
She’s fantastic at including children of all ages and truly understands each child’s individual needs. We fully trust Tuba’s judgement and really value her support, flexibility, and reassurance. Our daughter loves being there. It truly feels like a second home 😊
Elise looked after my daughter for 6 months (aged 18 months - 2 years), she was my daughter’s first childcare provider & she was perfect. Elise is so gentle, kind & tender, she made my daughter’s settling in period seamless. Elise provided wholesome home cooked lunches & explored so much outside & sensory play with my daughter. Thank you Elise, we miss you ❤️
Beth has looked after my daughter (aged 2) for the last 5 months & it has been amazing. My daughter is like a member of her family now (we all are). My daughter goes on many outings & has learnt so many things. She is jumping over her mile stones & is thriving in Beth’s care. My daughter is happy to attend, eats well, sleeps well & is making many friends. I cannot recommend her enough.
I cannot recommend Kim highly enough. She is truly part of the family and was absolutely fantastic when looking after my daughter. She is caring, patient, and incredibly trustworthy, and my daughter felt completely comfortable and happy in her care. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was being looked after by someone so kind, attentive, and reliable. Kim always kept us updated with daily pictures, took the kids out to museums, parks, farms and everyday they learnt something new.
We are extremely grateful for everything she has done and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone. We have also put our youngest daughter on Kims waiting list! Thats how incredible she is!!
I cannot put into words how grateful I am for the care Grayson has received over the years. He has been with Heathers childminding since he was just 6 weeks old, and from the very beginning she has treated him with so much love, patience, and understanding.
Heather has always taken the time to truly see Grayson for who he is, recognising and supporting his SEN needs with compassion, sensitivity, and professionalism. Her ability to adapt, nurture, and advocate for him has made such a positive difference to his development and confidence. Grayson has always felt safe, accepted, and valued in her care.
The environment she provides is warm, calm, and nurturing, and it is clear how much thought and effort goes into supporting each child as an individual. I have seen Grayson grow, learn, and thrive thanks to the consistency, reassurance, and genuine care he received and still receives every day.
Heather goes above and beyond everyday to care for each child and caters for each child. Grayson isn’t an easy child to look after as he has additional needs but she has been fantastic and I couldn’t have been the mother I am now without her love support and guidance.
Leaving your child with someone from such a young age is never easy, but I have always had complete trust and peace of mind knowing Grayson is not only cared for, but truly loved. I will always be thankful for the role Heather has played in Grayson’s life and can’t recommend her enough.

My son Eric who is just under 3 loves going to Miss Rachel and Miss Bhara. He always runs in with a huge smile and comes home looking happy and content. I am provided with daily updates which is great and it always looks like he is having such fun. I was super impressed on my first visit with the setting and with them both and immediately asked if they could look after my son when I was working. He has also come on leaps and bounds in their presence with his speech. I normally pack him a lunch but one day my food shop didn't arrive and I had to ask Miss Rachel at last minute if she could sort food for him and it was no problem at all. I am very pleased.
We feel incredibly lucky to have found Julia. Our daughter has been with her since she was one year old, and from the very beginning she has been so happy and settled in her care.
Julia creates a warm, nurturing, and fun environment. She plans lots of lovely activities for the children and regularly takes them out to explore and experience new things. There is always something engaging and thoughtful going on.
Most importantly, our daughter absolutely loves going to Julia’s. She is happy, confident, and clearly feels safe and cared for, which means the world to us. Julia genuinely cares about the children and plays such a positive role in their early years.
We couldn’t recommend Julia highly enough.
My daughter has been going to Erica's for nearly 10 years now. She absolutely loves being there as Erica is such a kindhearted, caring, lovely and compassionate childminder. Couldn't have asked for any better, I highly recommend her. You can see how much she loves and cares about all the kids she looks after. She has tons of activities to do with all of her children, and makes every day engaging. There isn't a better childminder I could find, even if I tried.
Debbie and Paul have looked after my son for more than 2 years, and family before that. Their experience means they have seen it all before, will used to growing children. Good communication means we always are in the loop. Our new baby will be going soon too, probably no better sign.
