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.
Molly has been caring for our two children, H, now aged eight months, and L, aged two, since January 2026, and she has been truly exceptional.
Her communication is brilliant. She consistently provides the most beautiful photographs and detailed updates of their daily activities. This regular contact is incredibly reassuring and allows us to discuss the events of their day together over family dinners. Additionally, Molly has lovely children of her own. Because they are similar in age to ours, the children have quickly formed wonderful friendships.
Furthermore, Molly possesses a highly practical approach to toddler and baby illnesses. She is completely understanding and accommodating regarding minor coughs and colds. She orchestrates beautiful outings and encourages the children to create wonderful seasonal crafts. We have been delighted to receive lovely handmade gifts for Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, birthdays, and Easter.
We honestly cannot recommend Molly highly enough to any family considering her services. She has been absolutely fantastic, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have found her.
Thank you, Molly! ❤️

We were very happy with Teresa as a babysitter. She was friendly, flexible, and easy to communicate with, especially when I needed to make changes to the times. She brought her own games and craft activities for the children, which was lovely, but she was also very happy to let them play independently while keeping a careful eye on them. When I got home each evening, she always gave me a helpful update about how things had gone and mentioned any issues. She was great with the children, and I would definitely recommend her.

We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful childminder for our son. He was in her care from 18 months old right up until he started school, and we couldn’t have asked for a better environment for him to grow and develop.
Evely is exceptionally kind, patient, and nurturing, always created a warm and welcoming atmosphere where our son felt safe, happy, and truly cared for.
Communication was excellent throughout -Evely always kept us updated on his day, his progress, and any important information, which gave us great peace of mind.
Most importantly, our son absolutely loved his time with her. He looked forward to going each week and formed a strong, positive bond. It was clear he was not only well cared for but also encouraged to learn and develop. He gained so much during his time there, both socially and educationally.
We are so grateful for the role she played in his early years and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a caring, dedicated, and supportive childminder.
You start a conversation with her, and then she completely ignores you. She initially replied, “Hi, thank you for your message. I am available evenings and weekends at the moment. Is this of any help to you? ” I responded, she read it and then nothing. Quite frustrating, and honestly a bit unreliable!
Ilona was our very first childcare experience, and we couldn't have asked for a better start. From day one, she put in tremendous effort to help our son settle — even during those difficult early weeks when sleep was a real challenge. She took him to her garden, organised outdoor activities, and made every day feel like an adventure. Her warmth meant our son quickly came to see her as family — he still mentions her name all the time!
What truly sets Ilona apart is how much she goes the extra mile. She celebrated every season with the children — helping our son make heartfelt cards for Valentine's Day and Mother's Day, organising an Easter egg hunt, and arranging a magical Christmas Santa visit. These thoughtful touches created memories he will carry for years.
Sadly, Ilona is leaving London, which is the only reason our son is moving on — we would have happily kept him with her right up until primary school. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family.
Dawn is amazing with my daughter. She offers a clean and safe environment as well as giving her full dedication to the children.
My daughter is usually very anxious about being in a new place, but after day one she had settled and was always excited to go back to Dawn.
The day is usually spent doing activities, playing, days out and also time for the kids to relax and have some down time.
CabinCubs has been a home away from home for my little girl.
We are delighted with the care our child has received at Tambies Raising Stars (TRS) over the past five months, and we would not hesitate to recommend Jo to anyone looking for a kind, caring and nurturing childminder.
Choosing the right childcare was a very important decision for us, as it is for any parent, and Jo came highly recommended by a friend whose children had attended her setting. After our initial visit, we immediately felt so comfortable — Jo has created a lovely, cosy environment with both indoor and outdoor space where children can learn, play and feel at home.
The settling-in process was very well planned and thoughtful, and our son has taken part in a wide range of activities which he really enjoys. Jo also keeps us updated every day, which was especially reassuring during the settling-in period when drop-offs can sometimes be a little emotional. It’s very comforting to know how his day has gone and what he has been doing.
We really couldn’t ask for anything more and would struggle to find anyone more caring and loving to look after our child. People often say they treat the children in their care like their own, but with Jo we truly believe this is the case.
I am very happy to recommend Nina as a night nanny. She worked with our family for a week or so
after the birth of our son while my wife was recovering from labour.
Nina was always punctual and completely reliable. From the first night, it was clear that she is
extremely knowledgeable and experienced with newborn care. She not only took excellent care of
our son but also shared helpful advice and guidance with us as new parents, which we greatly
appreciated.
Nina was wonderful with our son and handled his night-time care calmly and confidently. At the end
of each night she provided a clear report of his feeds and nappy changes, which gave us real peace
of mind. She was also very considerate during the night, keeping things quiet so we could rest, and
she always washed up and left things tidy before leaving.
On top of her professionalism, Nina is a very friendly and personable individual who was a pleasure
to have in our home during such an important time for our family.
I would highly recommend Nina to any family looking for a reliable, experienced, and caring night
nanny.
Juliette has been amazing with my son. He was behind in his maths and needed some extra help. We’ve been with Juliette for a few months now and already school have stated his making good progress in maths! My son has ADHD which can cause him to not be as focused or concentrate but Juliette has been able to keep him interested and active in a full hours lesson. She has a lot of patience and really works on what the child needs to work on it’s the 1-1 focus that’s really helping my son. I will continue to use this private tutoring my son really enjoys it every week.
Milly has so far been superb
She came to the rescue in a very short notice. My kids loved her from the first session. She is reliable, very pleasant and polite.
Has been flexible and very accommodating to last minute request.
I know my kids are not only in safe hands but also not bored when looked after by Milly.
Kelly has looked after our three children for almost four years and has been with our daughter since she was born.
We have absolute trust in her and consider her part of the family. I enjoy how positive, punctual and reliable she is. She has brilliant knowledge about what’s on where throughout the year and has game fully swept the children off for days out all over the county.
My children feel completely safe, understood and cared for with her and she has helped us through all the tricky milestones like weaning, potty training and adjusting to nursery/school.
She has such vast experience looking after children of all ages, there really isn’t anything she can’t handle. When the children have had difficult days or awkward phases, she’s listened and helped and cheered them up.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kelly.
