My little boy has been with Hayley & Jan since he was 9months old. They often have fun days out and we get an update everyday, most days with a photo too. Hayley has offered advice when we were unsure with some things (sleep patterns, bedtimes etc) and holds no judgement. Her & Jan are both caring, down to earth people who genuinely enjoy being with my little boy.
Maria looked after our son for two years. It was important to us that he was in a family-type environment and Maria definitely provided that for him in her home. We felt like he was in a safe place from him being a baby to becoming an energetic toddler and he made some great friends, who he was really sad to leave. She was organised, flexible patient and clearly very experienced.
Maryam has worked with us for over a year and a half, providing full time care for our three-year-old son. She came to us when our son was still very young, and she is now saying goodbye as he is about to start nursery.
Her support and commitment has been invaluable to our daily lives. She adapted to our habits and schedules, and also provided wise counsel when we needed it.
Maryam combines great sensitivity and flexibility with the ability to guide and support parents who sometimes need guidance themselves. She also demonstrated a great ability to work with our son, surrounding him with love, kindness, and motherly understanding.
I can recommend Maryam in good conscience because her professionalism and sensitivity make her highly competent at caring for your child. She quickly became a very close friend of us too, and cared for the whole family throughout her time with us. She is not just a nanny; she is a member of our family.

My son has been going to Hayley for a good few months now and he absolutely loves it. They are always doing something with the kids to keep them entertained and Hayley always sends photos and a review of how my sons day has been which I look forward too. I would recommend Hayley to anyone.

Janet and Wayne cared for my daughter, Lacey-Mary, for 11 wonderful months. From the very beginning, they provided a warm, home-from-home environment where the quality of care was outstanding. Their communication was always excellent, and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for childcare.
They did the most amazing job supporting Lacey-Mary’s development — she truly flourished in their care. I couldn’t have wished for better childminders and wouldn’t have trusted anyone else to look after her.
Lacey-Mary absolutely loved her time with Janet and Wayne. She formed such a lovely bond with them both and was always so happy to be with them. She would come home excited to talk about her day, whether it was playing at the park, visiting the library, or enjoying soft play sessions. Every day was filled with fun, care, and learning.
On a personal level, Janet and Wayne went above and beyond. They always checked in when Lacey-Mary was unwell — not just about her, but also to see how I was doing. Their genuine care for our whole family meant so much to us.
We are incredibly grateful for everything they have done. It was very emotional for Lacey-Mary to leave, as she starts school in September, and she will miss them both.
Thank you, Janet and Wayne, for everything. We love you guys

We put our boy in with Lisa when he was 11 months old. Initially we were worried about leaving him with someone else (as most parents would be) but within a week our concerns proved to be totally unfounded. He LOVED her. He would be happy to arrive everyday and some days he wouldn’t want to leave! Lisa cares deeply for the children in her charge and formed a lovely bond with him almost straight away. Although a house and job move are forcing us away from Lisa much earlier than we would have liked, we still only have positive memories of how well loved and looked after our child was with her for the months they spent together. Look no further if you need a kind and nurturing “third parent” to join your family. Thank you Auntie Lisa, you are already sorely missed!
Tarin has been an angel and stepped in when i most needed her. from the min go, she was so warm, welcoming and reassuring. my daughter has had an amazing time at her setting and has become more confident around her peers. Tarin’s setting is clean, well set up and really inviting. I love that Tarin keeps the children engaged in lots activities including taking them out and about. my daughter is an out doorsey, nature loving toddler and she really enjoys being taken out. i would recommend Tarin as 10/10 and definitely use her again.
Our daughter absolutely loves Pandas. Andrea and Agnes create a very friendly, safe and fun environment. Every occasion is celebrated in a special way, every birthday is unique and so much fun! We also get daily updates via whatsapp with photos so we are aware of what has been done, how long our daughter napped and what she has eaten that day. She has already made so many friends and always says how much she loves her 'teachers'. We wouldn't imagine a better place for our daughter to develop, socialise and just have a good fun every day. And as parents we fully trust Andrea and Agnes and would recommend Pandas to anyone. Thank you for all your hard work!
Nannyhan is amazing! I have two SEN children and I struggle to leave them in anyone else's care. But from the first moment they met Nannyhan they loved her. I felt confident to leave them and I knew they would be truly taken care of. Nannyhan had an incredible way of forming such a strong bond with the children and understanding their needs immediately. I could actually feel the stress leaving my body as soon as she arrived. And the kids absolutely adore her!!!
We have been with Yulia for 3years, she is been an amazing nanny, great support for my daughter and for me our family. She loves and cares so much about our daughter, she has lots of sense of details, makes lots of activities and help for child learning and development . We don’t see her as nanny she is part of our family.
My little girl started with Nikki when she was 1 and after her first week, there is nowhere I would rather her spend her time.
I got positive energy and a positive atmosphere when I met Nikki and instantly I know she was the right person
She goes above and beyond to make sure my little girl has the best time when she is with her but is also no push over.
which is definitely needed now she is a determined little toddler.
I love getting the updates and pictures from her during the day and then hearing my little ones version of her day at pick up.
whenever we get in the car now she always asks if we’re going to “Kikki’s” (this is her name for her) and asks to see all of her friends that she has made. and will always run in when I do drop off and doesn’t want to ever leave when I pick up
If you are looking for a trustworthy, reliable childminder, Nikki is your person. She is everything I wanted and more. and me and my little girl couldn’t imagine our lives without her.
We are very lucky to have found Lucy to look after our two boys. As soon as I met Lucy she was warm, friendly and the kids immediately took to her. It's such a relief to have found somebody that takes such good care of your children when you're not around, we're so grateful for her.
Libby has been a wonderful nanny—kind, caring, and truly engaged with our child. She’s active, always involved in play and learning, and built a strong, trusting relationship with us. Our child adored her, and we always felt confident knowing they were in such capable and loving hands. Highly recommend!

Grace sitted our 3yo and 8mo kids during a private event. She was very reliable from the first second of interaction. We are very thankful that Grace supported us. She is extraordinarily thoughtful and considerate. When we were a bit overwhelmed, Grace thought about a lot of things that we didn’t even had in mind. She had a solution for everything - child related or not - and was of great help. We would recommend Grace to everyone!
Fiona sitted our 3yo and 8mo kids during a private event. She was so very reliable from the first second that we immediately felt at ease. Even though they didn’t have a long time to get acquainted our kids had a good time. Fiona had great ideas how to keep everyone happy - and even brought her first aid box. Big plus for us were her language skills. Our 3yo says they made a new friend… We would recommend Fiona to everyone!
Mahalah is simply amazing. She took my son under her wing at short notice, and he has slotted right in and is having the time of his life. I’ve never seen him happier! The activities they do are so varied, fun, and plentiful. Her home is warm and welcoming, and the updates throughout the day are just so lovely. I wholeheartedly recommend Mahalah

Catarina babysat for us a few times which went very well. On time, lovely with the children, we were very pleased. Then last time, she GHOSTED us while we had very expensive event tickets on the line, she did not respond on any phone / platform. She left us cold, if it wasn't for our kind neighbours and friends we would have lost thousands. At first we were concerned for her but she just went silent as I saw our message being read on WhatsApp. This makes it really hard to trust anyone that you used multiple times with no issue. Beware.
Lisa has been looking after my son Victor since 2024, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provides. She is incredibly kind, patient, and attentive - and my son absolutely loves spending time with her.
I feel completely at ease knowing he’s in such a safe and loving environment.
Highly recommend her to any parent looking for someone they can truly trust!
