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.
My son has been attending to Carol’s childminder for over a year. Within the time with her she has been very responsable and puntual. She is very patient and devoted to her childminder students. My son has developed very good manners and skills.
She is very communicative and always does educative fun activities with the group.
Her family is lovely and my son loves the family dog.
I couldn’t recommend her enough! I’m very grateful for her
Rashmi has looked after my daughter for over a year, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
From the very beginning, she created a warm, homely environment where my daughter felt completely comfortable and happy. It truly felt like my daughter was part of the family, and she was always treated with such care, kindness, and genuine affection, as if she were her own. My daughter has loved going there and has thrived during her time in her care, we even increased days with her and reduced days at the nursery. The food she provides is always freshly made and nutritious.
As we move on, our daughter will miss her very much and often speaks fondly about her. We are expecting our second child very soon and will definitely be sending her to Rashmi for her amazing childminding services.
I would highly recommend her to any parent looking for a loving and nurturing childminder.
We have had the privilege of having Carla as our babysitter, and she has been looking after our 8-month-old baby. He absolutely adores her. Carla is exceptionally caring, compassionate, polite, personable, reliable, and trustworthy. She is also wonderfully positive, mature, and dependable, and she shows genuine love and dedication in everything she does. We truly hope she can continue with our family for many years to come. ❤️
Honestly, I must have visited over 100 different childminders and nurseries and only wanted Fiona. Both my girls have been with her and I booked in my second when I was 4 months pregnant! I completely trust her and would be so lost without her. She is so understanding and organised, really flexible and just all round exactly what you want from a childminder. She is very reliable and keeps us updated on baby days with cute photos. She takes the children to the zoo, Chessington, playgroups, the beach! Both of my girls adore her and we would be lost without her.

Sarah has been a wonderful childminder for our son, who started with her just before he turned two. She has a lovely, welcoming home and regularly takes the children to toddler groups, the library, and on other trips out. He comes home each week with little crafts he’s made, and she keeps us updated every day about what they’ve been up to and how his day has been. It’s really lovely to see how much fun he’s having!
I was nervous at first about leaving him in someone else’s care, but Sarah put me at ease straight away. She’s so caring and attentive, and I know my son is safe, happy, and thriving with her. On the mornings he’s with her, he gets so excited when we drop him off, and it’s such a relief knowing he’s not only enjoying himself, but also learning and developing so much thanks to the personalised care and attention Sarah gives.
We feel really lucky to have found Sarah and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
I came to know Casey through her role as a Room Leader at my daughter’s nursery. From the outset, Casey made me feel completely at ease leaving my daughter in a childcare setting. It was immediately evident that she has a genuine passion for working with children, and her naturally kind and caring manner truly shines through.
Observing the strong bond Casey developed with my daughter gave me great confidence in her abilities, and I later asked if she would be willing to provide additional care for a few hours each month. Casey is reliable, highly knowledgeable, and an exceptional caregiver. Her support has been invaluable to our family, and both my daughter and I would be lost without her
Julie is a rare find! So competent and my kids loved spending the day with her. she was attentive, professional, experienced and has a natural caring nature. I knew as soon as we exchanged messages I could trust her. The kids loved spending the day with her, there was regular contact and lots of outdoor play. couldn't have asked for more and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her. Thank you Julie ❤️

Lisa is a gem of a childminder and we feel so lucky to have found her. She really is a rare talent; excelling at what she does, and proving how such wonderful attention to detail can really help shape your child. The love she has for what she does really shines through. The environment is perfect, and our little girl actively gets excited to see her Lisa that she runs into the gate ahead of us every time. We can not rate Lisa any higher if we tried. Thanks to Lisa we feel really happy, safe and confident that our little girl is having the best care and active learning in her early years. Thank you Lisa. ❤️
We were Becky’s first childminding family (following her extensive years of professional childcare including nurseries and nannying). She looked after our eldest for 7 months before she went to school and is still looking after our almost 2 year old. She manages to provide an exciting and stimulating environment for children of varying ages. My daughters have both loved taking part in the creative play and crafts Becky organises which she clearly puts a lot of time and thought into! Becky also takes them out on trips to the park, library, and occasionally on the bus. They have both almost always been happy at drop off and both buzzing with all the fun they’ve had at the end of the day. Becky is highly reliable and professional and has responded positively to a couple of requests re: car seats and nap timings for our youngest. She also sends regular updates with lovely photos of all the fun they have had. Thank you Becky for taking such good care of our girls!

My son has been going to Caroline since he turned one and I can’t recommend enough. My son is very fond of her and he is always happy to go to her place. This says a lot about how caring, supportive and amazing she is. Caroline does different activities with my son which has helped him immensely in building his confidence. My son will start school in September this year and Caroline has already prepared him in getting ready for school. My son now can independently wear his clothes and shoes, can recognise numbers up to 20 and can also write his name. All thanks to Caroline’s dedication and hardwork in the past two years.
We were so lucky to have Chloe
She’s works so well with our son and understood his needs. Chloe was absolutely brilliant with helping our son with exam prep (7+)
Chloe always kept us updated, gave us the appropriate guidance, well planned and punctual. Couldn’t thank Chloe enough, highly recommended!
Our little girl has been looked after by Jill for the last 2 years and we cant speak highly enough of Jill. We say ‘looked after’ but its so much more than that as Jill has taken the best care of our little one and progressed her in so many ways. Jill came recommended to us- we didn’t know Jill prior but, we’re so glad we chose her. Great comms, daily updates, great food, lots of fun had and a happy child always ready when we pick her up with lots to say about her day! Another on the way and therefore we’ll definitely be using Jill for childcare again, soon!
Wonderful childminder. She is kind, patient and professional. I always felt confident leaving my child in her care.
I have used Rabeya for almost two years since my daughter started reception. As a full-time working parent, I needed someone reliable, flexible, and easy to communicate with, and Rabeya has been all of that. My daughter has always been happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend her to any parent looking for quality childcare.
My son has been with Heather since February 2023, and from the very beginning she has treated him as though he were part of her own family. He recently started school and still talks about her constantly — he misses her so much, which says everything about the care she provides.
Heather is an exceptional childminder. She offers a wonderful variety of trips and experiences, including visits to the beach, Sealife Centre, woods, parks, and local farms. She regularly attends toddler groups in the area and has great links with other childminders, which has helped my son build friendships with lots of other children.
She is incredibly creative and always plans themed crafts and activities for occasions such as Christmas, Easter, Mother’s Day and more. She also tailors activities to each child’s interests — my son loves space, and she went out of her way to read space‑themed stories, find colouring books, and plan activities around his favourite topic.
Meals and snacks are always thoughtful and fun. She prepares lovely “picky plates” with fruit and veg, and even uses cookie cutters to make sandwiches in different shapes, which my son absolutely loved.
Heather also creates her own activities — for example, at Halloween she made little spider mazes using tweezers to help develop fine motor skills. Her imagination and effort shine through in everything she does.
On a personal level, Heather has gone above and beyond for us on several occasions, including helping with pick‑ups when my car wasn’t working. She is easy‑going, supportive, and genuinely makes life easier as a working parent. She is reliable, rarely takes annual leave, and is always committed to the children in her care.
I couldn’t recommend Heather highly enough. She has been a huge part of my son’s early years, and we are so grateful for everything she has done for him.

Our eldest daughter has been going to Sara's for 7 and a half years, and our youngest for a year now and the care she provides goes above and beyond any other childcare setting we have ever experience. Sara creates a home from home for the children so they are always excited to go to be in her care! Sara puts on activities for the children for all occasions which they thoroughly enjoy and talk about continuously after. The days out she does with the children are beyond our expectations and are both engaging, educational and enjoyable for children of all ages. We couldnt wish for a better person to look after our children and they have both thrived in her care. The caring nature she has towards every child individually is second to none, and she takes the time to learn every single childs likes and tailors activities towards these too! We will never be able to thank Sara enough for all she does for our children.
After a rocky attempt at settling in our then 11 months old daughter at nursery, which resulted in more distress for her than we were prepared for, we were nervous about her starting childcare away from home in general.
Upon meeting Rachel, we were immediately reassured. She is an experienced professional, who is caring and a natural with this age group. She is clearly really thoughtful about her approach, which starts with the settling in process. She takes time and care to understand each child as an individual they are, and you can tell how passionate she is about her role. Within a week, our daughter was settled and happy.
Rachel takes the children out on park walks and to her allotment. Our daughter's language and social skills have really developed already in the few months that she had spent there.
We would 100% recommend Rachel to any parents looking for a home from home environment for their child.
