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.
I was quite anxious leaving my twins with anyone but they met Mohini and her Team this transition was so smooth and just meant to be. Both my children are always so happy and content when dropped off, and we love updates of their activities plus the artwork they bring home which they've enjoyed doing during the day. With storytelling and singing activities throughout from the age of 1 Mohini has boosted and encouraged my children to absorb more and more and we see this constant development in them. The environment is warm, safe, and truly feels like a second home. Incredibly professional and reliable, she and her team always go the extra mile to support you when you need it. Whether it's accommodating a slightly earlier drop-off or helping and advice about specific developmental stages, they have been a massive support throughout. Highly recommend Mohini to anyone looking for attentive and caring childcare and much more.
Rahena is exactly what our daughter needed as she struggled with separation anxiety. Nura warmed to her gentle and calming nature from the start.
Rahena approached Nura with great patience and offered constant cuddles to settle her.
I felt at ease whilst Nura was in Rahena’s care as she has consistently kept up communications about Nura’s well being throughout the day.
She has also taken on board any requests that I have made with regard to Nura’s care and tried to implement to the best of her ability.
Our daughter is now happily playing and there is no end to the variety of activities that Nura engages in.
It is clear that Rahena has given a lot of thought into creating the perfect environment for little ones to be stimulated and to flourish.
Rahena comes with my highest recommendation as she is very easy going and accommodating when dealing with us as parents and also very nurturing and caring towards our daughter.

Andrea has been my daughter Flossie’s childminder since she was just one year old, and she is now six. We honestly couldn’t have wished for a better person to care for her.
Floss absolutely adores Andrea and still asks to go to her during every school holiday, which says everything about the wonderful relationship they have built over the years. Andrea creates such a warm, caring and fun environment where children feel happy, safe and valued.
She plans a fantastic range of activities at home and regularly takes the children on outings to local parks and other places, ensuring they are always engaged, active and having fun. Floss especially loves the food Andrea provides and always comes home happy and full of stories about her day.
One of the loveliest things has been seeing the friendships Floss has made through Andrea. Many of the children have been attending for years, which is a real testament to the exceptional care she provides.
Andrea is reliable, nurturing, professional and genuinely cares about every child she looks after. She has been such an important part of our daughter’s life, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. I cannot recommend Andrea highly enough she truly is the best.
Our son has been with Lisa since being 18 months old- 2.5 years. Lisa has been fantastic. She has always been accommodating, especially as I work different shifts each week. Lisa is very kind and provided our son with a caring environment within her own home. She also visited local parks and playgroups, and also encouraged them in creative play such as painting and crafts.
Lisa was also amazing at updating us throughout the day with pictures and messages.
Our son settled very quickly with Lisa and used to enjoy going. We are only changing childcare setting as we have moved area, Lisa will be missed very much! Thank you

My 2 year old son has been cared for by Zehra and her team for a year and he has come so far in that time. Before starting he was very clingy to us and wouldn't usually go to anyone he didn't know. After his first day here he came out so happy and has loved it ever since. Every morning he gets excited and can't wait to get there and every evening when we collect him he comes out so happy. The progress he has made this last year has been incredible his social skills and communication has improved so much. He's made lots of little friends too.
One of the hardest things for a parent is putting your trust in to others caring for them and I can honestly say as soon as I met Zehra I knew she was the most loveliest, friendly caring person and we are so lucky we found her to look after our baby. And she doesn't just care about the kids she cares about us as parents too...I would highly recommend her and her team to anyone looking for the best childcare ever!!!
Lyssa has cared for our daughter since she was a baby and provided wrap around care for our son. She provides a brilliant home-from-home environment for our children; she is a second Mum to our daughter and I know that the love our children feel for her is mutual. They are truly made to feel a part of the family and cared for as Lyssa’s own which is more than I could ever have hoped for my children when they are away from us.
Lyssa provides a great range of activities for the children, she knows them each as individuals and cares for each of their quirks. She has had years of experience and has supported us through every phase and stage. I will forever be grateful for how she supported my want to continue breastfeeding when my daughter started as a baby and she was brilliant at enabling me to send milk etc.
Lyssa will always be family to us now, we will forever be grateful for the love that she has shared with our children. I know that our children are going to miss her terribly as they move on to their next stage but this won’t be goodbye.
Sufia is an incredibly nurturing, caring childminder and is truly deserving of all the positive reviews she receives.
After sending my eldest child to a private nursery, I knew I wanted a more intimate, home-from-home environment for my younger daughter. Choosing Sufia was one of the best decisions I could have made. The level of care provided by Sufia and her assistants has been exceptional from the very beginning.
My daughter absolutely loved going to Sufia's home and made so many wonderful friends. In fact, on the days she wasn't due to attend, she would often ask, "When am I going to Auntie's?"—which says everything about how happy and secure she felt there.
Sufia genuinely treats every child as if they were her own. She ensures they are well cared for, well fed, and supported in every aspect of their development. My daughter developed excellent eating habits while in her care, and Sufia also helped toilet train her at an early age. She encourages independence and confidence, which has made the transition to nursery much smoother.
Her setting is run with a high level of professionalism and has a structured routine similar to a nursery. She organises themed days where the children can bring in toys, books, or cuddly toys from home, encouraging them to share and interact with one another. This has had a wonderful impact on my daughter, who has developed a real love of reading.
My daughter attended Sufia's setting from the age of one until she recently started nursery. Leaving was a very difficult decision because she was so happy, settled, and comfortable there. We will always be grateful for the love, care, and dedication Sufia has shown our daughter, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to any parent looking for a caring, trustworthy, and professional childminder.
I honestly couldn’t recommend Little Explorers highly enough. Choosing them for my children has been one of the best decisions I’ve made.
Both of my children have attended Little Explorers and have had such wonderful experiences. They’ve grown in confidence, made great friendships, learnt so much. Knowing they were happy and excited to be there gave me complete peace of mind.
The care, attention, and support the team provides is brilliant. Every child is treated as an individual, and the nurturing environment they create feels more like a family than a childcare setting. They go above and beyond to ensure every child feels safe, valued, and loved.
I’ve recommended Little Explorers to five friends, and every one of them has thanked me afterwards because their children have had equally positive experiences. That says so much about the consistently high standard of care they provide.
As a parent, nothing is more important than knowing your children are happy, safe, and well cared for. Little Explorers has exceeded all my expectations, and I’ll always be grateful for everything they’ve done for my 2 children.
A huge thank you to Laura, Ellie, Cathy, Beth, and the wider team for everything you do and have done for my 2 kids. Sloane is going to miss you all ❤️ Xx

Jules has been providing pre and after school care for our 5 year old son for over a year now. During that time she has shown herself to be a wonderful nanny who we trust implicitly. Our son adores her and we can’t recommend her highly enough. She provides wonderful childcare in a calm and considered way and we are so grateful for everything she does for us.

We feel very lucky to have found Jainaba to care for our son (2). She is so warm, calm, nurturing and kind. I remember how calm and happy the children seemed on my first visit - and it was the same for our son when he joined. He always looked forward to going. Jainaba also seemed to have a special touch with helping our son with his food as he is quite fussy. Compared to his previous childminder and at home he ate very well (we were amazed to see the little videos of him eating new food!) Jainaba was also extremely reliable and flexible.
We were very sad to say goodbye to Jainaba when we moved house a few months ago.
Our little girl has been with Jacqueline since she was 16months old,
we didn’t want to send her to a nursery due to her being premature and small we felt she needed more one on one care that could be provided in a smaller environment, and we are so glad we did and never looked back.
Jacqueline isn’t just a childminder she becomes part of your family, the care and attention she gives your child feels you with so much confidence when leaving your little precious little ones in someone else’s care.
my daughter dosnt look at Jacqueline as a childminder but someone she trusts and loves spending time with , and really misses her when she dosnt see her after periods of time.
we love how Jacqueline does so much with them , always out and about at parks, down the seaside , trips to the library and animal parks, but also does educational things with them.
Jacqueline has got Daisy to a point of being ready for school and we are so sad that she won’t be with her each day , but knowing she will be returning to her during the school holidays makes the next journey in Daisy’s life that little easier .
I honestly don’t know what we’d do without you! From the day Tommy started with you, you’ve made him feel so happy, safe and loved. It’s so reassuring knowing he’s with someone who genuinely cares about him like he’s one of their own. I’m so grateful for all the patience you give him every single day (he is feral) Nothing is ever too much trouble, and you’ve always been there for us whenever we’ve needed you.
Somewhere along the way, you’ve become so much more than Tommy’s childminder. You’ve become a friend, and I feel so lucky that we’ve found you. Thank you for all your support, and for being there for me and Tommy the way you do.
We appreciate you more than you’ll ever know, and I couldn’t recommend you enough. You’re simply amazing, and we’re so grateful you’re such a big part of our life!
Maria has been invaluable in supporting me with my baby as I slowly ease back into work. She also helps cook delicious meals for my husband and I every week. She is a pleasure to work with and always offers helpful advice and guidance on topics such as starting solids, teething, and easing the baby into a more regular nap / sleep schedule.
We have had the pleasure of having Martha as our nanny for the past three years, caring for our daughter from the ages of 8 to 11.
Martha has been responsible for school pick-ups and drop-offs, taking our daughter to activities, and babysitting in the evenings and on weekends. Throughout this time, she has been incredibly responsible, dependable, kind, and caring. We have always had complete peace of mind knowing our daughter was safe, happy, and well looked after in her care.
Over the years, Martha has become someone our daughter truly trusts and enjoys spending time with. She has been a wonderful support to our family, and we are deeply grateful for everything she has done for us. We recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable nanny.

I have been with Lisa since my son was 7 months old amd my daughter was 2, they have been with her for about 4 years and she has seen them both through to school.
She has looked after both my son and daughter over this time and she has been nothing but incredible.
She is reliable and in 4 years I can count on 1 hand the amount of times she has had to be unexpectedly off. If anything to her work schedule changes she gives plenty of notice and works with you as a parent where she can.
My son has several allergies and she has been excellent and professional in helping us while we were finding out about them one reaction at at time and played a significant role in helping us identify some problem foods and has also been amazing at ensuring his safety with food in her setting.
Both my children have started school well prepared, shes taught them so much and they both started school well equipped with understanding of some letters and numbers to 10. Developmentally she has made sure they are on track and suppourted us through all the usual hard bits like toilet training and transitioning from a dummy and dropping naps. They socialise with other children regularlyfrom other childminding settings and have lots of outside time which I love. Every worry I had about my children was put at ease by Lisa. Her setting is a home from home and the kids thrive there.
She has genuine love for her job and my kids love her dearly. I cannot recommend her enough and we are truly sad that the kids are too old to be with Lisa full time.
My son has been with Sarah since he was 1 year old, and choosing her as our childminder was one of the best decisions we made. From the very beginning, Sarah created such a warm, caring, and nurturing environment that he settled in quickly and has absolutely loved every moment with her.
Sarah cares about every child she looks after and it is clear how passionate she is about her job. My son adores her and is always excited to go to her house, which as a parent gives me complete confidence that he is happy, safe, and well looked after.
She provides a fantastic variety of activities and experiences for the children, from playgroups and park visits to bigger days out and special activities. She ensures they are always learning, exploring, and having fun, while also developing important social skills through interactions with other children.
Sarah's home is welcoming, child-friendly, and full of engaging toys and activities. She also keeps parents regularly updated throughout the day with messages and photos.
What sets Sarah apart is not only her professionalism and experience, but the genuine love and care she gives to the children in her setting. She goes above and beyond to support both the children and their families, and her years of experience are evident in everything she does.
I am so grateful for the positive impact she has had on my son. He absolutely loves Sarah, and I know the bond they have built is very special.
If you are looking for a childminder who is kind, trustworthy, experienced, and truly dedicated to the children she cares for, I would recommend Sarah without hesitation. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her.
We asked Kitty to take care of our son during our wedding. She was incredibly good at calming him down. She was considered and gentle and very kind to us! She even went to the shops when we ran out of formula and stayed an extra hour at short notice. I highly recommend Kitty! I felt my baby was very safe and well taken care of, even during a long and stressful day.
