I honestly couldn’t ask for a better nanny for my twins. She is absolutely amazing with them — caring, patient, and genuinely invested in their happiness and development. She feels like part of the family, which gives me so much peace of mind. She’s always early, incredibly helpful, and completely trustworthy, which means the world to me as a parent. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, kind, and dedicated to caring for their children.

I needed some last minute childcare and Kellie was absolutely brilliant. My 1& 3 year old immediately look a shining to her and it was easy for me to leave them with her. She is very professional. So. so glad I found her on childcare.co.uk will definitely be using her again in the future.

Jennie - Stoke Gifford
Reviewed

I feel incredibly lucky to have found Jennie and am so happy to leave my son in her care. It is really nerve wracking to leave your child with someone unknown to them but once he settled (which he did very quickly) I didn't have to worry about leaving him, knowing that he was having fun with his new friends and with Jennie. They have a great time going to playgroups, the park to feed the ducks and even sometimes the farm! Jennie communicates well, and I love getting updates and photos via the app. I really can't thank Jennie enough for her excellent care of my little boy!

Saeeda - Birmingham

From the moment we met her, it felt like a second home for my child. The environment is loving, welcoming, and full of warmth. She genuinely cares for each child, always attentive, kind, and trustworthy. I feel completely confident leaving my little one in their care and couldn’t ask for a more nurturing and reliable childminder.

I can’t recommend them enough! my daughter has flourished since starting and she adores everyone at her childminders.
She has come on leaps and bounds at 18months old she talks, can count to 10, tell you what she wants all because of the support that they have given her since starting in October.
I cannot recommend them enough.
Thank you Angie and team you really are the best at looking after my daughter.

We feel so lucky to have Aferdita as Alina’s nanny! Every time the doorbell rings, Alina runs to the door with pure joy, excited to see her. They laugh, play, and share such happy moments together. I’m incredibly grateful for the love and warmth Aferdita brings, and it gives me peace of mind knowing my daughter is in such caring hands.

We have had a wonderful experience with Estelle as childminder firstly to our eldest daughter and now our son - from when each was 11 months until school age. Estelle cares for the children in a warm, friendly and safe environment, and treats them as if they were her own. They have each learnt so much with her - whether that's how to share, arts, crafts, learning about different cultures & festivities, baking, the list goes on. Estelle is always full of original, clever ideas, and enjoys taking the children out on mini adventures - no two days are the same! What stands out is how Estelle allows and encourages the children to be independent and supports their interests. Thanks to Estelle, both children now understand and can speak French which is a great benefit to us as a dual national family. We highly recommend her to anyone looking!

Agrees to meet or accept the role. But then cancels last minute. Done this twice and with no valid reason. When trying to address the issue, she just apologises and deletes her messages.
Very unprofessional.

Izzyo - Canterbury
Reviewed

Izzy joined our family in spring 2025 as a full-time nanny to our two daughters, Daphne (then 18
months) and Twyla (then 6 months).
From our very first meeting, we felt she would be a wonderful fit for our family. Izzy brings a
breadth of childcare experience across different ages and settings, and this showed immediately in
the calm, capable and reassuring way she stepped into our home.
Over the past year, she has supported our girls through meaningful stages of growth. With her
encouragement, Daphne’s confidence, language and independence flourished, and Twyla moved
steadily through her early milestones with attentive, loving care. It has been a genuine joy to watch
the girls grow with Izzy by their side.
Izzy is kind, compassionate and emotionally intelligent. She has a natural warmth that children
respond to, and she brings fun, creativity and energy to her days with them. She built a close and
affectionate bond with both girls, and they have been very fond of her.
We are deeply grateful for the role Izzy has played in our daughters’ early years. Any family would
be fortunate to have her caring for their children, and we would confidently recommend her for
future childcare roles.

farwa - Burnley

Farwa is really lovely and good with my little boy. Looks after him very well. She’s always on time. Keeps the house clean and does a great job with helping out with everything. At the end of every visit she sends a full timeline list of what’s been done, eaten etc. Definitely recommend.

Ciara E - East Herts

We've been using Ciara with us one morning a week since last year, she's great with our little boy. He loves seeing Ciara and all the time they spend together. Ciara is confident and experienced and really good at taking Rhydian out and about without our prompting. She's super flexible and polite.

Our daughter went to Saras when she was just over 1 year and has been there for the past 2 years and absolutely thrived. Our son went to a nursery and in comparison we wished hed had the same experience had we known better. She settled so fast and has always run in so happy to see her little buddies, they get so much fresh air, running about and fun planned / themed activities! Our daughter potty trained in days and has developed really quickly with Saras help. We trust Sara completely and have always felt very confident our daughter is being well cared for and loved for who she is. Our son often joins for the holidays and its one of his highlights he cant wait to go back! I wouldnt hesitate to recommend Sara to any other family.

My son attended this setting last year. I’ve taken time before writing this because I wanted to reflect calmly.

At first things seemed fine, however over time I started to feel uneasy about certain aspects of communication and documentation.

On one occasion my son came home in completely soaked clothes with a heavily wet nappy. As a parent, that was very upsetting to see. I raised it immediately. Although an apology was given, there was no written incident report.

There were also ongoing concerns around nappies and wipes. I provided a full pack of 32 nappies. My son was also in the early stages of potty training, so I would not have expected them to run out so quickly. The pack did not last a week, and the number of changes recorded in the diary did not align with how quickly the nappies were said to have finished.

On two days there were no written daily records provided, only verbal explanations.

During one activity, photos were sent which included another adult I had never previously been introduced to or informed about. When I asked who she was, the initial message was deleted. The following day I was told she was a volunteer. The photos that had been sent were later deleted from WhatsApp. That sequence added to my concerns around transparency.

When I raised my concerns, I was described as “nagging,” which I found unprofessional and hurtful. I was also informed that the provider’s husband wished to speak with me regarding my complaint, which made me uncomfortable as I expected communication to remain directly with the registered childminder.

Shortly after raising these concerns, the provider terminated the contract and refunded the remaining balance.

As a parent, I expect openness, accountability and professionalism. Unfortunately, this was not my experience.

Tutor Nat and Esi - Belvedere
Reviewed

My son has been doing online tutoring for maths with Natalie for a year. He got on well and really liked her. However a number of issues with meetings starting late (or in some instances not at all) over the year, due to lack of communication/technical. Initially as a parent I had feedback and son was given homework. This stopped approx Sept 25 until I queried why homework was not being set. No feedback voluntarily provided on feedback (having had tutors for another child it’s standard to get this after every session). Take care with the terms and conditions, school holidays, public holidays are not considered (there was an expectation for my son to attend a session 5pm Xmas Eve). I ended the agreement a week ago as we have moved to a local tutor and a week after sending an email confirming this I have not even received an acknowledgment (bar auto plan cancellation)from Natalie. Didn’t work for us , lack of communication which def needs to be worked on. Disappointing and frustrating for my son who now has to build a relationship with another tutor.

Lakshmi - Chelmsford
Reviewed

Our daughter has been with Lakshmi since she was a baby, and we could not have asked for a more caring and nurturing childminder. She created a warm, home-like environment where our little one always felt safe, loved and secure. She was incredibly accommodating to our needs and provided a personalised approach that really suited our family.

Lakshmi supported our daughter beautifully with her feeding skills and early development, offering a variety of toys and engaging activities that encouraged learning through play. The care and attention she gives genuinely feels like that of a second mum. We always had complete peace of mind knowing our child was in such capable and loving hands. I would highly recommend her to any parent looking for exceptional childcare.

I was thoroughly impressed by how Lolly connected with the kids, especially through play and some fun educational activities. She's very dependable, and the children absolutely loved her.
