L C Childminding - Hockley
Reviewed

She’s had my little one for two months now and she’s gone above and beyond catering to each and every child’s needs.
The facility’s are amazing with all the toys and games the kids would want aswell as a huge garden with all sorts of stuff for the kids.
My 1 year old always walks in happily and loves to see her in the mornings.

Gemma has been looking after my daughter since she was 10 months old. My daughter loves Gemma. She always walks in happy and keen to go in and play. Gemma sends lots of photos during the day so we can see what our daughter is doing. She keeps us updated on everything, which is very reassuring. Our daughter has come on such a long way since starting, thanks to Gemma. She’s also great with advice, as first time parents, her advice and support has been fab. She is amazing as a childminder, would highly recommend.

Lorraine - LONDON

I cannot recommend our childminder highly enough! She has been looking after my 7-month-old baby with such warmth, patience, and genuine care. From the very first day, she created a calm, nurturing environment where my little one instantly felt comfortable and happy. He is so active and full of enjoyment whenever I pick him up, and I can see that he is growing very well and learning new things at his stage is the fundamental part of it all. Little Lah Lah is perfect for him. She pays close attention to my baby’s routine and developmental needs, and I’m always impressed by the way she conduct her settings and stimulation perfect for his age. I receive regular updates which gives me so much peace of mind. What truly sets her apart is how naturally she connects with children. My baby absolutely lights up when he sees her, and that alone speaks volumes. Knowing he is safe, loved, and well cared for has made all the difference for me. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, attentive, and truly passionate about childcare, she is everything you could hope for in a childminder. We feel incredibly lucky to have her around our baby.

Lorraine looked after my som Za’Kai for over a year, in which his development in all areas such as speech, motor skills and social skills far surpassed that of what a child his age should be hitting.

The comfort I felt every day knowing Za’Kai was going to a loving, warm setting to this day is still unmatched!

Lorraine cooks fresh food daily for the children (most of the time I was jealous that I wasn’t getting any!), encourages interactive play both indoors and out and meticulously documents key updates so that parents are always updated with what their children are doing.

Lorraine is truly an angel in childminder form! I would recommend Lorraine to any parent who is looking for childcare assistance

Maria - London

I have Maria come several times a week to care for my little one while I work.
I know I can depend on her, and on the occasions where I sometimes needed short-notice help, she was happy to.
She's very affectionate with my little one, very carinosa, very personable; she plays with him and sings to him and dances with him (he's a 1 year old). She co-sits with my mother and my mother absolutely adores her as well. I love that she has a can-do, willing to help attitude.
She was a bit shy at the beginning, but is very kind hearted and friendly.
She's also offered to cook mexican food, but we've not had the chance to coordinate that yet.
We are leaving for a few months, so I am writing this review in the hopes you dear parent are reading this and willing to give her a chance, as she'll have more time on her hands, and because she's really a nice girl.

Theadora - Plymouth
Reviewed

Theadora was brilliant with our 2 children (3 and 1 at the time she was with us, bridging a gap after a house move before they started at a local nursery). She was reliable, calm, engaging and responsible. She managed very gently but effectively to break through the barriers with our sometimes shy little boy, coming up with games to draw him into play with her which he still asks to play now! Would thoroughly recommend Theadora to anyone looking for childcare.

Dawn Smith - Luton
Reviewed

I would like to express my deepest appreciation for the amazing care my son has received. From the very first day, the Dawn has been incredibly welcoming, kind, and supportive. My son always felt safe, happy, and excited to go, which means the world to me as a parent.The environment is warm, clean, and nurturing, and there is always a great variety of activities that support learning, social skills, and creativity. I have seen so much positive development in my son thanks to the patience and dedication shown every day.
Communication has always been excellent. I was kept updated on his day, meals, activities, and any little achievements. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands.Thank you for all your hard work, love, and care. We are truly grateful, and I couldn’t have wished for a better childminder for my son.

Bobby - London

Bobby has been tutoring my son for the 11+ and an independent school exam. She’s well prepared, great with children & is always willing to follow up on sessions with a conversation. A great find.

Olivia - Eastbourne
Reviewed

Olivia has been incredibly professional and attentive! My 18 month old is usually shy around new faces, but Olivia made her feel at ease straight away and they have been getting along great! Her kindness and playfulness puts my mind at ease when leaving my little one in her care ❤️

GMB - Farnworth
Reviewed

GMB childminder is exactly what my child has needed. I was advised that TT needed a more intimate and 1 to 1 setting as she wasn't settling in well with her previous settings. GMB was an easy choice our daughter is thriving and slowly settling in but making so much progress. Cotema has this calm caring nature that our daughter instantly felt as she was comfortable playing when we visited. Cotema takes the time to get to know her and uses the things she loves to settle her if needed and teach her through play. Cotema has even given our child a nickname its so cute. She is the full package and we are over the moon with her. Thankyou GMB love paige wes & TT

Dilshana - Luton
Reviewed

My son went to Dilshana when he was 9 months and went to her on and off for few months. He developed so many new skills and liked her. She was honest reliable and very kind. She makes baby feel like home. She helped me in emergencies when I needed care for my son. She was keeping me updated in regards to his adaptation at her setting. I recommend her.

Debbie - LONDON
Reviewed

Debbie is a very professional and caring childminder. She provided a clean, warm and calm environment for our son who started with her at eleven months, and he settled in with ease. The children have plenty of toys, and she plans activities that match what they enjoy. Our son grew so well in her care. Communication was smooth, she was flexible with our weekly schedule, and we handed our son over each morning with a smile knowing he was in good caring hands.

Vesna Gudgin - Salisbury
Reviewed

I can’t recommend Vesna highly enough! She looked after our daughter for several years after school. Vesna was absolutely brilliant with my daughter from day one. Her nurturing, patient, and positive approach made my daughter feel completely comfortable and happy, and it was clear how much she enjoyed her time there. Communication was always excellent. I always felt that my daughter was genuinely cared for and safe. The environment was warm, clean, and welcoming, and it was obvious how much love and effort Vesna put into her work. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Vesna, and I’m so grateful for the wonderful impact she’s had on my daughter. Truly outstanding!

Hayley was a big hit with our 2 boys (ages 6 and 3). She’s very kind, caring and fun!

Izzy - Liphook
Reviewed

Izzy started looking after my little boy on an adhoc basis around 2 years ago. He was then around 7 and a little worried about having a babysitter while I was at work. That lasted about 5 minutes and since then Izzy has become one of his absolute faves. She picks him up from school, takes him to and from football, cooks for him, does his bath and bedtime. I can’t recommend her highly enough. She’s incredibly kind, professional and reliable. Just don’t steal her on my days…!!

My daughter loves coming to Sarah each day and shows how happy she is to be there by reaching out to Sarah and giving her a cuddle on arrival each day. This makes it so easy to leave her there and go to work.
Sarah is amazing, she shows how much she enjoys being with and spending time with the children each day and how good of a relationship she has with them.
Sarah makes childcare services so easily with her flexibility, communication and the fact all meals are included, which my daughter loves by the way!

Carrie - Bedminster
Reviewed

We were quite disappointed with our experience with Carrie. Our baby is very sensitive and needed someone who could take a bit more time to settle her gently and help her build trust. Carrie had a tight schedule and other children to care for, so the environment just wasn’t right for our little one.

After two or three weeks of settling sessions, Carrie said our baby wasn’t ready for childcare and wouldn’t be able to take her on — this was only a week before I had to return to work, which put us in a very difficult position.

Our baby is now with other professionals who’ve had the time to give her the comfort and reassurance she needs, and she’s settling much better. I think Carrie is a good professional, but this setup just wasn’t the right fit for us, and I wanted to share that in case it helps other parents with sensitive babies.

Katie - Ashtead
Reviewed

Katie has become a constant for Gracie and she has grown to love her time there with her and her new friends. She always seems so happy coming home and saying that she had a fun day, painting, going outdoors to the park, or box hill walking, crafts, explorative toy play and the social groups she takes them to in Wednesdays.

Gracie loves warm characters and is used to a lot of affection at home, so Katie is perfect for her in terms of making her feel home from home. She always is greeted with a smile in the morning and she's helped Gracie become super polite (lots of please X, please Y and thank yous) which is lovely given she's new to talking. Katie has sparked her interest is cosmic yoga for kids which she now asked for at home and she's become really good at saying her emotions like happy and hurt through Katies teaching in the week.

Very grateful to drop Gracie to Katie every day as I know she's in good hands.

My little one started with Sarah in August and has settled so well. He has a lovely time and has made friends easily. He gets excited when I tell him it’s time to go to see Sarah, which is a great endorsement from someone under 2. His speech and behaviour has come on so well in his time there, and he’s starting to pick up things like colours and numbers too. He eats like a king while he’s there and always comes home full of babble about his day. Would definitely recommend Sarah
