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.
Stacey agreed to attend our home today for an initial meet. I stayed home from work to make this happen at her preferred time (lunchtime), which she suggested.
2 hours prior, at 11am, I messaged Stacey to forward her my home address only to be sharply informed, "Sorry for the short notice but I’ve actually been offered something else. Best of luck with finding someone."
It is really frustrating how people like Stacey discard commitment without considering their reputation and the knock-on effect on the disappointed party.
Victoria is truly our angel on earth. She has been a constant source of love, care, and support for my little boy, Roman. Despite his ongoing health condition, Victoria treats him with the same kindness and inclusion as all the other children, making him feel safe, happy, and valued every single day.
Her dedication goes far beyond what anyone could ask for in a childminder. She ensures Roman receives his medication responsibly and communicates with his healthcare professional to ensure he still has follow ups even when he is with Victoria.
Knowing that Roman is in Victoria’s care gives me complete peace of mind — she truly has his best interests at heart. Her compassion, professionalism, and genuine love for the children she looks after are remarkable. We are so grateful to have her in our lives. ❤️
Hanna has been our nanny for over 4 years and she has been the most wonderful addition to our family. She is incredibly caring, gentle, fun, and invests so much into relationships with the children. She's also incredibly reliable - she's never been a minute late or been ill! We've been in a few different nanny shares and Hanna has always adapted to the needs of whichever other children she's worked with. Sadly we no longer need Hanna but are devastated to see her go - we couldn't recommend her highly enough.

We were so anxious at the thought of sending our wee girl to a childminder at 9 months old! But Tasha put us at our ease from the first visit. She has been super accommodating with our needs and routines and it’s obvious how much thought and love goes into her care for the kids she minds. Our wee woman loves going to Tasha’s house and we can go to work knowing she is being well cared for and having some lovely experiences out and about too.
Dawn has been the most helpful childminder any parent could ask for. Both of my boys have been with her since 2023 and what a difference she has made, the activities and education skills that Dawn does during the days my boys are there have helped them come along so much.
Any question or query you have she will go above and beyond to help in anyway possible from researching links and recommendations even if you just need a chat.
I am always happy to know my children are having the best time when they are in her care

I feel incredibly lucky to have found Bianca at the time that I did. From the very beginning, she has been welcoming, professional, reliable, and genuinely caring. My daughters settled in quickly thanks to her calm and nurturing approach, and I have seen such positive development in their confidence and social skills.
Bianca’s home is always clean, safe, and full of engaging activities. She goes above and beyond to make each day fun—whether it’s creative play, outdoor adventures, or learning moments tailored to each child’s needs. Trust is everything when it comes to leaving your child in someone else's care, and I can honestly say I trust her completely.
Most importantly, my daughters absolutely adore her and I couldn’t ask for a better person to care for my girls.

Outstanding Childcare!
Nicci has looked after all three of my children over the years, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for them. She treats every child as if they were her own with so much love, patience, and attention. My kids have always been happy, safe, and excited to go, which says it all!
Nicci creates such a nurturing environment filled with fun activities, learning, and laughter. She goes above and beyond to support both the children and parents, and her communication is always open and reassuring.
I’m so grateful for everything Nicci has done for our family she’s been a huge part of my children’s early years, and we’ll always treasure the care and kindness she’s shown. I couldn’t recommend Nicci’s Childcare more highly! 💕
My little one spent 2.5 years at Wishcroft, starting when he was just 8 months old and growing into a chatty, confident 3 year old with care from Sallyann and her team of assistants. He really enjoyed his time there and particularly liked the many trips out (especially to the Transport Museum which is one of his favourites) and spending time outside including in the allotment, helping to grow dinner! For me, the great thing about Wishcroft was the focus on younger children (unlike many childminders) and the way it bridged the gap between a childminder and nursery/daycare. There were enough other children of a similar age for my son to interact and practice building relationships with but in a smaller, more family-like environment. I also appreciated how flexible Sallyann was about welcoming my nursery-age daughter during the school holidays and integrating her quickly into the setting. There are lots of practical benefits on Wish croft, for example, Sallyann makes lots of effort to ensure that the children are well fed with a range of home cooked meals and her and the team were also helpful partners when it came to potty training! I would highly recommend Wishcroft to anyone looking for a small, caring setting for their child.
Thanks Sallyann and team x

I cannot recommend Anna highly enough – she has been the most incredible childminder for my daughter from the age of 2 until almost 5. From the very beginning, Anna made us feel completely at ease with her warm, caring, and professional approach.
Anna goes above and beyond in everything she does. Every single day is filled with fun, creativity, and new experiences. She organises the most wonderful and regular trips out – from local parks and playgroups to farms, airports and nature walks. She meets with a group of other childminders so there was opportunity to collaborate on special events such as the music bus and Christmas specials – giving the children such rich opportunities to learn and explore the world around them. At the same time, she provides a loving, homely environment where each child feels safe, valued, and supported. I am an early years teacher and Anna's own standards for what is healthy, safe and appropriate match my own high standards. I do not worry about her while she is there.
Her dedication to the children’s development is outstanding. She always plans thoughtful activities that encourage learning through play, and I’ve seen my daughter’s confidence, independence, and social skills flourish under her care. Anna has a natural gift for nurturing children, balancing kindness and patience with clear routines and expectations, which has been invaluable in preparing my daughter for school.
What I appreciate most is how much Anna genuinely cares. She treats each child as an individual, tailoring experiences to their interests and needs. Communication has always been excellent – she keeps parents fully informed using the BabyDays app and shares the little moments that mean so much, which made me feel part of my daughter’s day even when I wasn’t there.
My daughter absolutely adored her time with Anna and often came home bubbling over with excitement about what she had done that day. As a parent, there is no greater reassurance than seeing your child so happy, settled, and thriving.
Anna is everything you could wish for in a childminder: reliable, trustworthy, inspiring, and endlessly caring. We feel so lucky to have had her in our lives during these important early years. She has given my daughter the best possible start, and we will always be grateful.
Shamima is our babysitter and, although she hasn’t been with our family for very long, she has already provided incredible support whenever we needed extra help or when our regular nannies were unavailable. We couldn’t be more pleased. We first found her through another babysitting platform and, after seeing her profile here, we wanted to share our experience.
Shamima cared for our two year old twin girls, who bonded with her quickly despite being shy. She was incredibly patient and engaging, often planning outings to parks, museums, the library, and various play activities. She also connected very well with our older children. She consistently went above and beyond not only keeping the children entertained but also helping my pregnant wife with daily tasks, even when it wasn’t expected. We also book her for evening sits, and she manages everything from dinner and bath time to bedtime with ease.
Shamima is reliable, proactive, and kind a true support to our family. We continue to stay in touch and still book her whenever needed. She has truly become part of our family.
Thank you, Shamima, we can’t wait to see you again!
Highly recommended. :)

Our daughter has been with Olga since she was one. Olga's has been an absolutely amazing figure in her (and our) lives! Olga is warm, loving and incredibly thoughtful but has also been fantastic at teaching our child lots of important things; holding cutlery, sharing, tidying up after herself just a few of them.
Our daughter now attends nursery part time -as well as continuing at Olga's- and the nursery staff have commented on her independence, positive spirit, language and excellent manners- all of which we can thank Olga for! Thanks Olga- you are amazing!
Nikki is incredible! My daughter loves going to Nikki's every day! Everyday she is doing something new or has learnt something new, they go to forest school, to soft play, to playgroups the list is endless! Without Nikki we would be lost! She is an asset to her profession and we are just so happy we found her as she had wait lists due to being so popular in the community where we live. My daughter thrives at Nikki's and has made lots of lovely friends too!
I would highly recommend Nikki to anyone who needed childcare. She is head and shoulders above the rest!

Dianne has been with us for less than a month now, and so far she's been such a wonderful person to our daughter. She knows how to take care of her and made us feel confident everytime we are away for work. She's warm and very caring to our daughter which I appreciate a lot. She's knows what she's doing and that made us comfortable leaving our daughter with her.
My little girl has been going to Lauren since she was just 1 year old, after being recommended by my sister who also trusted Lauren to care for my nephew. From day one, I knew I’d made the best possible choice. The peace of mind I get every morning when I drop her off, knowing she’s going to have the most exciting, fun filled day is absolutely priceless. I’ve never once had to worry — I can get on with my day knowing she’s in the best hands.
Lauren goes above and beyond to make every day magical. The children are always off on new adventures — whether it’s visiting local parks, soft plays, forest walks, toddler groups, zoos, or enjoying the amazing garden and endless toys and activities at her home. No two days are ever the same, and my little girl comes home full of stories and smiles.
The food Lauren provides is always fresh, home cooked, and nutritious, with plenty of healthy snacks on offer. I can always smell the delicious lunch she’s preparing as I walk in for our 7:30am drop off, which says it all!
Another thing I absolutely love is how key dates throughout the year are always made extra special. Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Christmas (and everything in between!) are marked with personalised and thoughtful gifts made by the children, keepsakes that I will treasure forever.
I look forward to receiving regular photos throughout the day and reading her detailed daily diary each evening. I always know exactly what she’s been up to, what she’s eaten, and how she’s felt.
Lauren isn’t just a childminder — she’s become a lifelong friend. We chat regularly and I share holiday pictures whenever we’re on our travels - she truly cares for each child as if they were her own. Three of my best friends have also chosen Lauren after my recommendation, and they are just as delighted with their decision.
I’ll be so sad when my little girl leaves to start school next September, but I’ll do so knowing she’s had the absolute best care for three wonderful years.
If you’re looking for someone who will nurture, care for, and bring joy to your child every single day, Lauren is that person. I feel so lucky to have found her and her family, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly.
One of the wonderful and amazing person I have meet.
I am a doctor working full time and a single mother.
Baeta looks after my 7 years old daughter.
My daughter gets along so well with Baeta that I feel so grateful for her being around my daughter.
I don’t have a close family here but her being around my daughter feels like a family.
She does so many healthy activities with my daughter including arts , baking and much more.
I am very thankful Beata for always being so helpful.
You are an amazing person with a pure heart.
I would always pray for you.
From the very first day, Sam has been absolutely incredible with our son. Her home is so warm and welcoming — it really does feel like a home from home. She’s kind, caring, and so patient, and nothing is ever too much trouble. You can tell how much she genuinely loves what she does, and it shows in the way the children light up when they see her.
Our son absolutely loves Sam and talks about her constantly. We couldn’t have wished for a better person to look after him — she’s given us total peace of mind knowing he’s happy, safe, and thriving every day.
My daughter only attended for a year, but in that short time, Claudine and her wonderful team made such a lasting impression on us. They are some of the kindest, most caring people I’ve ever met. Every day was filled with love, creativity, and attention to detail, from fun trips to the park and soft play sessions to special outings at restaurants. My daughter always came home beaming with joy, excited to tell me all about her day. Thank you so much for the warmth, care, and love you poured into her. She will always remember her time with you so fondly. 💖
