Latest Reviews
Here are some of the latest reviews that we have received from parents who have used childcare providers and tutors listed on Childcare.co.uk.
We can't recommend Jamie enough! She's been a miracle for our family. My daughter's son is age 5 and has additional needs and was on a reduced timetable until he got more support in school. We hired Jamie to help fill in those hours to be with him at home and to go out together. She quickly built up trust with him (which many struggle to do) as well as keeping firm with boundaries to keep him safe. He absolutely loved his 'Jamie days' and it has truly helped him be ready for his next chapter in a new school. He feels much more confident to build trust with other adults because of the care and attention Jamie gave him. We are so grateful to have had her as our nanny and it has truly set up our boy for the future
Eden has been looking after our 8 month old son now, once a week for the last month or so now and I can't express enough how fab she has been!
She provides continuous updates throughout the day to let us know how he is sleeping and feeding alongside loads of pictures which is an absolute joy to recieve and you can tell he is having the best time!
Eden also goes out of her way to take him to the park and on loads of walks so you know he has had a funfilled day!
I was super nervous about letting someone else look after my son but Eden made it so relaxed and agter just the first day I felt super comfortable with leaving him with her again!
She is also just an all round lovely human and easy to get along with! She is an open book and will make sure you are happy and comfortable with everything!
Couldn't recommend ger more!!
The environment Rebecca has created is great - thoughtfully designed and welcoming, the perfect setting to learn and have fun.
Our daughter, Nora, absolutely loves the time she spends with Rebecca. It’s wonderful to see how much she engages with the creative crafts side storytime sessions; there's clearly a lot of heart put into planning activities that capture the imagination.
The balance of purposeful play and a nurturing atmosphere is exactly what we were looking for. We’ve seen Nora grow in confidence and she always comes home happy and excited to share what she’s been doing. We would definitely recommend Rebecca to any other parents.
A great experience with the tutoring offered by Shaun. He is well prepared, patient and genuinely committed to helping my child.
He is works well to create adapted and tailored sessions and very flexible with times to meet for tutoring.
I would highly recommend Shaun to anyone looking for extra reliable and effective academic support for their child's leaning.
We had Ellie from 5 days old up until 6 weeks for 3 nights a week. From the first night it is clear how well she knows and understands babies. She was absolutely fantastic with our son. Not only did it give us some much needed sleep but she was there to answer all of our questions and worries, there is nothing she doesn’t know about little ones. I was exclusively breast feeding and Ellie got our son to take the bottle and supported me expressing throughout. When I got mastitis she diagnosed early and I could get the treatment I needed asap. Overall we could not recommend Ellie enough she is the baby whisper!
Tania has been a wonderful babysitter for my daughter. She is kind, patient, and always attentive, making sure my child feels safe and happy. Tania is reliable, punctual, and naturally great with children. My daughter really enjoys spending time with her, which gives me great peace of mind. I would highly recommend Tania to any family looking for a caring and trustworthy babysitter.
Kate, Flavio and their family have been amazing with my daughter. She has always been looking forward to going to their place and play with friends. She is a very happy kid always when we pick her up and at under 2 years old she appreciates the food very much. We are very lucky that we have got a place with Kate and very grateful for all the help they have given with my daughter, contributing to her growth and increased confidence. Thank you again Kate and Flavio and hope to continue working with you throughout our daughter's early years
It was my first time to send my children to non-relative or non family members. So I was really worried at the beginning of making my decision. However, I realised that how much I can trust Naila as a warm-hearted childminder as my children ( 2 and 3 years old siblings) were so happy to go to play with her every morning. I am so glad to meet Naila as she treat my children as if her loved one.
We often say about how lucky we were to find Sammy! The kids are welcomed with so much love - our son has come on leaps and bounds during his time here. As a nervous first time parents (and mum getting into the swing of returning to work), Sammy was absolutely amazing at putting our worries at ease, nurturing our son, getting to know him so well and giving updates on the little things he’d been up to through the days. As Sammy is a mum herself, the attention, care and understanding is so unique, I know we’d have never found that with nursery day care.
He has a wonderful time learning about different occasions/ calendar events and it’s the cutest thing when they get stuck in at the allotment!
Sammy has a beautiful, clean house and a brilliant family that all make our little guy feel so welcome! She’s so creative in taking time to prepare lovely activities for the children and it’s a huge bonus that they go on little trips to the library, parks and other days out like the farm!
We can’t recommend Sammy enough - we will be so sad saying goodbye when the time comes for leaving to go to school nursery!
Our daughter has been with Kirsty for over a year now loves going to Kirsty’s house and often chats about her at home like a true extended family member. Kirsty has been so kind and supportive to us and our daughter (M), she is always there to give us advice and provide a listening ear which we very much appreciate.
Her home is always clean and has a home away from home feel.
Kirsty is very professional, a great communicator and she provides us with holiday dates with good notice which has been important for full time working parents and she is very reliable.
Overall I would highly recommend Kirsty and I’d love to keep her as our personal nanny/mentor until our kid is grown up.
Cheryl is amazing! She has looked after my son for the last 7 years and my daughter for the last 5 years. Both my husband and I work long hours and wouldn't be able to do so without Cheryl's support. I know that when I drop my children off in the morning that they will be safe and happy until I come and pick them up in the evening. Cheryl picks up from school clubs, take the little ones to play groups, etc. Her house is such a happy place. She puts out amazing activities every day to engage everyone. She is organised, kind and very flexible. I would recommend her every time!
Choosing Casey was definitely more than the right decision for our little one. What makes her special is that she’s not just looking after children – she’s a guide who helps them explore the world. She’s incredibly active and energetic, with a real drive to take children out to discover new things. She gives my daughter so much that we can’t provide.
The most impressive thing is how much she values outdoor activities – she takes the children out almost every day. For example, they go to parks, the library, and baby groups (with playing, crafts, cooking, painting, singing, dancing, etc.). She also takes them to National Trust sites and the beach, even though they’re quite far away. I believe it’s her genuine passion for this work that makes her go the extra mile.
Another thing we love is that she sends out a weekly newsletter, each week with a different learning and development theme. She’s the one who plans well and gets things done.
And for the practical things parents care about: she’s very professional, communicates with us promptly, and sends daily updates on our daughter. Her home is very spacious, clean and tidy, and all the toys are clean and look new. She really puts a lot into this job – energy, time, money, you name it. We feel so, so lucky to have her!
Mia has been looking after my son for approximately a year now and provides a fantastic service. She is professional, reliable, and the setting is always clean, safe, and welcoming. Most importantly, my child loves going there!
The communication is great, and I love receiving updates on his progress.
A brilliant childminder who we feel very lucky to have found.
James helped with our daughter only 12 weeks before her 11+ exams, whilst she is a bright child anyways, 11+ exams are different to what is taught in state school curriculum in y5/6. My daughter gained more confidence in her self and James also made her lessons enjoyable and engaging that she always felt 1hr was too short! I will be using James again nearer the time for my other two children and his teaching is exceptional! Just for information, my daughter got a place in every independent school she applied to in newcastle (on bursary and scholar awards) and has chosen to accept RGS newcastle! Thanks James
Saleha, or “Lala” as my two toddlers call her, is a brilliant, thoughtful childminder who we have trusted with our two little girls since they were both roughly 6 months old. They love the time they spend with her and enjoy playing with the other kids in her care during the afternoons. She’s created a loving and safe environment and we are grateful for everything she does for our girls.
I used this childcare provider for my pair of boys for many months between 2025 and 2026. Princess is reliable, punctual, and both my boys love her. I will definitely book Princess for my employment related childcare needs in the future, and would recommend her excellent organisation skills and child care to others.
