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.
Ella was very patient with my son as he could get cranky often. She is very talented and always try to help you and your child with whatever she could. She dances really well and good with music which helped my son. Also, Ella is good with drawing and colours and kept my son engaged and always encouraged him. She is so lovely with any request we had with respect to our vision for my son.

I send both my boys to Anthea’s and they love it. They both run in without looking back and always have a great day. Both of their development have come on massively since being with Anthea. She takes them to parks, to feed the ducks and any other activity that she feels will be fun for them! I’d highly recommend Anthea to anyone 🙂
My son Denis spent almost two weeks with Abida. From the first day, he loved being there and asked to come back.
Abida transmits confidence and peace of mind so that one can complete the work.
We are truly happy to have met her.
And we will certainly return as many times as possible.

We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful childminder. Fabiana has been looking after our son for around 8 months, and from the very beginning she has been absolutely brilliant.
Our son genuinely loves going to her setting, which says everything. Fabi creates a warm, nurturing environment where children feel safe, happy, and excited to learn. Every day is filled with creative ideas and fun, engaging activities that keep the children stimulated and developing in so many ways.
We particularly appreciate how much time they spend outdoors, whether that’s playing in the garden or going on trips to the park. It’s clear that she values fresh air, exploration, and active play, which has been fantastic for our son.
She has also been a huge support in helping with his emotional development. She offers thoughtful guidance on navigating friendships, sharing, and understanding emotions, which has made a real difference to his confidence and social skills.
We couldn’t recommend her highly enough. She is caring, dedicated, and truly goes above and beyond for the children in her care.
My daughter enjoys her time using Anne-Marie and Francine Childminding service excellent staff, wholesome vibes. They are very welcoming. I will recommend this service to others. My daughter feel at home when coming to Anne-Marie and Francine’s Childminding service.
Our child has attended Ann Marie and Francine's setting for nearly 2 years. He has the most amazing time there. Children are treated as family and are looked after so well. We can really see how much our boy is learning as he applies his new knowledge as we go about or daily lives, recognising numbers and colours etc. Ann Marie and Francine have worked extremely hard with Ofsted and completed lots of training courses. They are applying their new knowledge to help the children learn and grow. We are so happy sending our boy and he loves going.
My daughter has been with JokiGems for the past 9 months and has helped so much with her development and growth. She has experienced a number of different types of days out as well as learning and exploring outside in ways I could never imagine. Joy is amazing with all of the kids and builds such a close relationship with them and I cannot thank her enough for everything she has done. My daughter has really enjoyed spending everyday with everyone at JokiGems. Thank you so much for everything Joy.
Our 3 year old has been with Francine and Ann Marie for nearly two years. He has a wonderful time and we can see how much learning he is doing whilst he is there as he tells us all about it and will point out numbers he recognises etc. Francine and Ann Marie have worked so hard with Ofsted and have completed lots of extra training which has been extremely beneficial for the children. It is a home from home environment with fresh meals everyday. Our boy loves attending and we are extremely pleased with the service provided and would highly recommend both Francine and Ann Marie.
Clare has been my childminder for over a year now, and I can honestly say she has been outstanding from the very beginning. She is incredibly informative, sensitive, and welcoming, which made the whole process feel easy and reassuring right away.
Clare strikes the perfect balance between being professional and friendly. My little one runs in every day with a huge smile and comes out with an even bigger one after enjoying adventure-filled days with Clare and the other children.
She makes everything so simple for parents too, with smooth drop-offs and pick-ups, as well as providing delicious lunches, snacks, and drinks. Clare has also been flexible whenever needed, and most importantly, she cares for my child as if they were her own.
truly couldn’t ask for better, I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone.
Once Upon a Playtime is fantastic! After a difficult experience elsewhere, we were understandably anxious about our child starting somewhere new, but those worries quickly faded. Kelly and Hannah have been incredibly kind and welcoming from the very beginning. The effort and creativity they put into planning each week is truly impressive, and we couldn’t have chosen better childminders. It’s also wonderful that our child gets to enjoy outings that tie in with the weekly themes, making the experience even more special.
Having my daughter attend Fruitful Childcare since she was 8 months old has been a truly delightful and enriching experience. Now at 4½ years old, she has grown so much with the loving support of Nicole and the team. They are attentive, passionate, and confident in the care they provide, and Fruitful has always felt like a safe haven for her.
I have watched my daughter blossom into a self-assured and caring little girl, learning so much during her time at the setting. The team have supported her greatly in becoming ready for primary school, giving her all the necessary tools and confidence for this next important step.
I feel incredibly blessed to have found Nicole and the team at Fruitful Childcare, and I highly recommend them to anyone seeking childcare assistance.

A wonderful childminder who provides a warm, homely environment where children feel safe, loved, and cared for. She goes above and beyond by feeding my child if she doesn’t like what I have packed, making sure she never goes hungry. She is thoughtful and attentive—always applying sunscreen when they go outside and providing a cap for extra protection.
She takes exceptional care of the children and consistently teaches good manners while encouraging independence, always focusing on helping my daughter grow more confident and self-reliant. Her years of experience shine through in the valuable parenting advice she generously shares with us. We feel incredibly lucky to have found someone so caring, dedicated, and supportive.

My son has been attending Ann Marie's setting for 4 years now. He has made lots of friends there and really enjoys his days at 'school'. He has learnt his ABC's, counting and lots of nursery rhymes and sing songs which he comes home singing to me.
He loves Ann Marie and Francine so much so that when he comes home he accidently calls me Francine too.
The setting has an abundance of entertain for the children, encouraging both inside and outside play. The garden has recently been renovated providing a safe and fun environment for the children.
Communication and support regarding funding has been superb, invoices sent promptly and the following months activities notification has been really useful in preparing not just the children but parents as well for school life.
Ann Marie and Francine place care in readying the children for schoolm enrouaging independance and prviding the support whenever it has been needed.
The flexibility they have provided our family has been a God send and we so sad for our son to leave them this September. I'm not sure who is more upset, my son or me!
Thank you for your amazing service and care!
Sophie has been our nanny for almost a year now, starting when our son was turning 5 months old. Sophie has always taken perfect care of our son. We'd never had a nanny before and we both have busy jobs and it was very reassuring that Sophie has so much experience both generally looking after children but also knowing all that is available in the local area so he gets the most out of his day. She always has the day's activities planned, but will adapt to his needs and our requirements as well. She's great to work with, always on time and communicates really well with us both at handover and during the day. She is a wonderful nanny, we are only letting her go because our circumstances are changing and we will miss her very much.
Emma has cared for my daughter for the past year (and still ongoing), and I honestly couldn’t have asked for better. She puts her whole heart into what she does, and it truly shows in every detail. The care she provides is so well thought out, with everything tailored to meet each child’s needs from baby age upwards.
My daughter feels completely at home with Emma, which was exactly what we hoped for. It’s such a warm, safe, and nurturing environment—you genuinely can’t have a bad experience. Every day, the children are given real opportunities to build social skills and take part in a wide range of creative and engaging activities, many of which I wouldn’t have even thought of myself.
Emma has created such a special place for children to grow and thrive. It will be incredibly hard to leave, and she will be deeply missed. I would recommend her to any parent looking for a safe, caring, and enriching environment for their child.
If you are looking for flexible childcare and want peace of mind knowing your children are well looked after and in an inclusive learning environment, look no further!
For the first time ever, my 5 and 3 year old sons are looking forward to going somewhere and have improved majorly in a month under all aspects also trying new foods they've refused before.
Very grateful for finding those settings!
Ayodele has been absolutely amazing with our 19 month year old, due to a very bad experience with another childminder I was very anxious as a first time mum to see if everyone works the same, as soon as I stepped into her home she made me feel extremely welcome, it was clean and very well set up with an amazing playroom with lots of activities for children to do, when I saw the way she bonded with my child then it was a done deal in my eyes, it melts my heart when my child is so excited to see her and I have no anxiety of leaving him with her.
She offers so much love & attention and is constantly sending me messages & pictures of him enjoying himself and laughing which we love to see.
I see the care in her eyes for my child and that is what any first time mum would want, she truly is amazing and I would recommend her always.
We always make a packed lunch for our child, but she has also advised on certain things that I wouldn’t know which is a huge positive.
She is wonderful person and she would love & care for your child as you would do 👍🏻
We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Sadika and her mother. They were recommended by a friend, and we only wish we had discovered them for our first child as well. The setting is immaculate, and the beautiful garden has been an added bonus. They show such genuine love and care for our daughter, and she still remembers them fondly months after leaving their care.
As a nuclear family living in London, with no family meme bees nearby to rely on, we rely solely on trustworthy childcare providers to help us. Their flexibility during times when we needed additional support has been invaluable. It gives us tremendous peace of mind knowing our child is safe, happy, and well-cared for with her wonderful childminders.
Dee has been absolutely amazing ever since we started coming. My little girl came from 9 months old and she absolutely loves coming. Dee is so kind and caring and very accommodating. Even my children who don’t attend love coming and dropping their sibling off and waving at Dee. She’s wonderful with my little one and does an absolutely outstanding job of looking after and caring for my little one and her face lights up everytime we pull into the gateway. She learns and explores so much by being there too. Would absolutely recommend this lovely lady and amazing place to anyone looking for childcare. 5*
