I don’t feel like a web review can do justice to ZooZoo. We had issues with our 1-year old at a big nursery and eventually pulled him out. From the moment we first interacted with Victoria and Gareth our minds were at rest, and we knew that our little one would be in a happy and safe environment. V&G go above and beyond in terms of activities, support, development, etc. but the most important thing for us was the communication, especially during a difficult period. They not only shaped and helped our boy grow into the lovely little 3-year old he is too , but they helped us to feel at ease and comfortable leaving him, and we are forever grateful for that. Thank you for all the happy times, the stories, the memories, the laughs we’ve shared!
Sarah was incredibly kind, understanding and generous when I reached out regarding childcare. She was very accommodating and willing to help me work around my circumstances, which I really appreciated. Although our childcare arrangements ultimately changed and we didn’t go ahead, I’m very grateful for her time, flexibility and kindness throughout. I would definitely recommend her based on my experience communicating with her.
Sara has looked after our daughter on a regular basis for the last 8 months. Sara is so kind and caring with our daughter, and had a lovely way of connecting with her and understanding what she's interested in.
Sara puts a lot of thought into the things they do together, following our daughter’s lead but also bringing in fun and educational activities when it feels right.
Sara's also been really good at taking on board our feedback and the way we like to parent, and has always been happy to adapt things to suit us.
We’ve felt very comfortable having Sara look after our daughter and would happily recommend her to other families.
We have been incredibly lucky to have Emma look after our daughter from the age of 1 all the way through to the end of primary school. Over the past 10 years, she has provided a caring, safe, and welcoming environment where our daughter has always been happy and well looked after.
She has been consistently kind, reliable, and flexible, making life much easier for our family over the years. It has always felt more like leaving our daughter with a trusted family member, and our daughter is treated like one of Emma's family.
Our daughter has thoroughly enjoyed her time with her and has built wonderful relationships with the entire family. We are very grateful for all the support and care, and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a childminder.
I found Sophiea through this website, and after interviewing four different babysitters in person, she was by far the standout choice. My three young children, including my two year old twin boys and four year old daughter, naturally gravitated towards her and felt comfortable in her presence right from the start.
As a single mum, I needed reliable support, and Sophiea has exceeded every expectation. She takes all three of my children to the park, handles meal times, manages their bath routine, and even helps tidy up their mess at the end of the day. Having her help three times a week for a few hours each day gives me much needed respite and makes me a better, happier parent.
I highly recommend Sophiea without hesitation.
My son has only been with Moushmi for a few weeks, but the way she cares for him, you'd think they've known each other for months. He's completely comfortable and happy with her, which says everything about the bond she's built in such a short time. Her setup is wonderfully professional, and she clearly plans each day in advance, giving my son a different, engaging experience every time he's there. It's such a relief as a parent to know he's somewhere so thoughtfully organised and full of warmth. We feel very lucky to have found her.
We liked Kelci the moment we met her, but we didn’t realise at the time just how lucky we were to have found her. She’s a remarkable person who invests a lot of love and effort into teaching children to be creative, joyful, confident and caring.
Kelci provided the best possible start for our son (who she looked after 5 days a week from the age of 7 months to 3 years). We’re incredibly grateful, and couldn't recommend her enough.

One of the scariest milestones for your child is picking a nursery that is right for them. The second i met with Gareth & Victoria, seen the environment, how class rooms are outdoors exploring, i knew in an instant this was the best place for my daughter.
My daughter has been going here since January and I can honestly say, she loves it, that much, she cries to go!
Gareth and Victoria go way above and beyond for the children here, always creating different ideas for the children to do and explore especially when the weather has been HOT!
My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting here and I put that down to Gareth and Victoria with how they treat my daughter, as if one of their own.
Not once have I felt worried about my daughter.
I am so grateful that my daughter gets to experience her first few years of her life in this nursery along side Gareth & Victoria.
Zoozoo childcare, you are AMAZING!!!
We love claire! She looked after our eldest son for two years and our youngest is starting with her soon. Claire is so kind and caring with the children and we feel so lucky to have found her. It was really important for us that our son had a lot of time outside, and claire does so much playtime in nature - as well as her own mini forest school in oxleas wood sometimes. She often does different weeks of learning - one week they learnt all about caterpillars and butterflies, and she even had some caterpillars hatch into butterflies at her home. Claire cooks three delicious meals for the kids every day and makes sure they are always safe and happy. Our son has developed so much in her care. If you are looking for a safe, nurturing and fun place for your child, claire is absolutely brilliant. We are so so happy we found her.

My boy went to nursery and we had an awful experience, unfortunately. This made us more precarious in future choices. Gifty was advised by the school, which already meant she was to trust.
After a year with Gifty and her Helpers I absolutely advise her services! Gifty listens and takes in consideration everything a mom has to say. Gifty and her team is watching your child like her owns, with reports, advices and love❤️.
My boy loved spending time after school and on holiday's at her big, very secure and warm home!
Gifty is very responsible, protective, understanding and always there for us, parents, our kids and our needs!
Little Lambs has been absolutely wonderful, and we are genuinely so sad that we had to leave.
Our son spent the last few months there and absolutely loved it. In such a short time, we saw him grow so much in confidence, independence and curiosity. The staff are incredibly caring, attentive and genuinely invested in the children — you can really see how much they love what they do.
We felt completely reassured leaving him there, knowing he was in such kind and capable hands. The communication with parents was also excellent, and we always felt listened to and kept informed.
I honestly couldn’t recommend Little Lambs highly enough. We are gutted that we had to move nursery and would have happily kept him there. A huge thank you to the whole team for everything you have done for our little one — you are amazing at what you do!
My daughter has been with Khadijah since she was 2 years 8months after moving to greenwich and she has really grown as a person. When we started my daughter was highly dependent on dummy and could hardly speak any words nor always want to play with other children. Within a week she dropped her dummy and we have seen her go from zero words to 2-3 words phrases, she is now joining in plays with her peers and has gotten comfortable using all the toys at the setting that has helped with fine motor skills and is now toiltet trained. I have loved Khadijah, approach where she discusses the child needs and work with us parents to see the child development including any advice on interventions and follows up on any open actions. She is also a good communicator & professional and have loved that she does periodic report on the child development. I also lover her setting and her garden that provides the children with outdoor play with various messy and sensory plays. I would highly recommend Khadijah and her setting, you can be assured your child will thrive. Thank you Khadijah
Minta has been absolutely wonderful. She is punctualm reliable and very thrustworthy, and I have felt confident knowing my son was in her care after school. She is friendly and responsible and has been a great help to us. I would happily recommend Minta to anyone looking for a dependable and caring babysitter.
From my little boys first visit to Jackie’s he’s loved going, sometimes we’ve struggled to get him to leave! Jackie’s home has always been so welcoming and my little boy is so happy to be there. His speech improved drastically over such a short time which is an absalute credit to Jackie, she’s really helped build his general confidence and social skills. The Tapestry updates are lovely, and she’s only ever a message away for any concerns or advice. My son is so content, comfortable and safe in Jackie’s care, she really looks after them like they’re her own. Looking forward to sending my youngest in a few months time!
I had enquired about availability almost 2 months ago, I was given excuse after excuse, then was told they’re now available and asked if I’m still looking for a space for my child, I then responded yes and they responded by saying they’re no full. Honesty and being direct would of been ideal and saved me a lot of trouble.
Our daughter has been going to Gina’s for 3 years and she loves it. Gina provides a true home from home experience, where she welcomes the children into her family completely. She plans lovely activities each week, including days with other childminders at a local hall meaning the children can experience a larger group as well. Gina provides daily photo updates which our daughter loves looking through and telling us all about her friends and adventures.
From cooking, arts and crafts, sports days, trips to the fire station and visits from children’s entertainers, there is always something fun happening.
In the words of our daughter, “Gina is a star” and we feel so lucky to have her caring for our daughter.
My daughter goes to Stacie 5 days a week during school hours, Stacie accepts the 30 hours free funding and has also babysat for me a couple of times when I've needed her. Going back to work was a worry but Stacie has been amazing, my daughter absolutely adores her. I'm about to have another baby who will also be attending Stacie's setting along with my daughter. I couldn't imagine going to another childminder. If you want someone who will make your baby/Child feel loved, secure and happy then Stacie is your lady! I'm very grateful to have found her on this website.

My daughter absolutely loved it here. The environment is a home away from home, clean and tidy with lovely healthy food available. My daughter looked forward to going here after school which says everything. Hira took time to get to know her and understand her needs, very child focused. Although my daughter hasn’t been diagnosed I suspect she is on the autistic spectrum and had no issues here again because of how Hira takes time to get to know your child and how best to care for them.
I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a child minder.
