Vicky is amazing with my kids, always finding fun things to do with them and they come back happy and are always excited to see her again! My daughter says she prefers her to me lol! Must be a good sign, picking them up and dropping off is so convenient and she’s honestly a Godsend. Thank you Vicky for your amazing service! 💓

We’ve had the absolute pleasure of having Abbie look after our three children (aged 11 months, 3, and 5), and we honestly can’t recommend her highly enough.
She is friendly, bubbly, and incredibly trustworthy, with a natural enthusiasm that shines through—especially with her teaching background. The kids adore her, and she’s fantastic at coming up with engaging, creative activities like Play-Doh making and arts and crafts. She’s also brilliant at getting them outside to enjoy fresh air and active play.
Abbie is calm and capable with everything from meal prep and baby bottles to nappy changes and nap time routines. We always feel completely at ease knowing our children are in her care.
On top of that, she is consistently polite, respectful, and professional. Abbie really is a rare find, and any family would be lucky to have her!
We could not recommend ZooZoo enough. I was absolutely dreading putting my baby into a nursery / childcare setting, especially because he had to start at 7 months old when I was returning to work, but choosing ZooZoo was the best choice we could have made.
It’s such a homely setting and our little boy absolutely loves going - he is always full of smiles and shouting ‘Gareth!!’ when we drop him off in a morning and sometimes doesn’t want to leave at the end of the day because he enjoys being there so much!!
We can really see how much he is developing by being there and joining in on all of the fun activities with Victoria, Gareth and the other children. He often comes home doing the actions to wind the bobbin up!!
We get daily updates on what they’ve been up to as a group as well as more personal updates of what our little boy has eaten, when he’s slept, how he’s been that day etc! We also get daily photos to see all the fun he has.
The meals and snacks they provide are also fantastic - always healthy and nutritious (including home grown fruit / salad that the children help to pick!)
The overall experience that they give to the children is just incredible from singing, playing instruments, reading, exploring the local area, seeing trucks / tractors nearby, feeding the ducks, sand/water play, mark making… the list is honestly endless and the activities they do are so wide ranging and creative. We also get lovely homemade cards for special occasions which is so kind and thoughtful, and they celebrate each child’s birthday.
We also get regular reviews so we know where he is up to with his development and what they are working on with him.
With him being our first baby they’ve always taken the time to explain everything we need to know when it comes to funding / hours etc to make sure we fully understand everything.
It is honestly such a special place and I’m so happy that we managed to get a space for our little boy - he absolutely adores Victoria and Gareth and we can drop him off everyday knowing he will be happy, in a loving and caring environment x
We feel incredibly lucky to have found Kelci when our little one was just a year old. From day one, it was clear how much care and thought goes into everything she does. Our son has absolutely thrived in her setting - the days are full of creativity, laughter, and learning, and it's always a joy to hear the stories and see the excitement at pick-up time.
What really stands out is how calm, kind, and genuinely engaged Kelci is with every child. She creates such a warm, supportive environment where children feel safe, happy, and confident to be themselves. Our child has grown in so many ways - socially, emotionally, and developmentally - and we credit so much of that to the wonderful care Kelci provides.
It’s hard to imagine a more nurturing place, and without hesitation, we chose to send our second child to her as well. That decision says everything about the trust and appreciation we have for Kelci and the special space she’s created.
My little girl has attended Jenn’s Jelly Beans for nearly 3 years. It has been the most amazing journey and she has loved every second.
It is such a homely, loving environment where she has picked up amazing manners. She is adventurous, committed to teaching and full of fun.
It is very difficult working full time and putting the trust into somebody to look after your baby, but Jenn is so understanding, caring and passionate about her job! This is the only time I have felt fully comfortable leaving my child for the day without a thought. Jenn gave me updates when necessary through out the day which I really appreciated.
I would 100% recommend Jen for childcare. We will be sad when my little girl leaves in September for school.
Our son has been going to Rosarii for over 3 years and it is genuinely the best decision we ever made. Everything about her is fantastic. As a parent it is always a nerve wracking thing finding excellent childcare but we haven’t looked back and we are all so sad that our son is leaving her to go to school.
Rosarii really knows her children and she provides such personal and excellent care. Our son came on leaps and bounds whilst attending and he loved being there and especially loved her cooking! There was never a time when he didn’t want to go and would run up and not look back when dropping him off.
I cannot recommend Rosarii enough, such a friendly and fantastic person. We can’t thank her enough!
5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We’ve been so lucky to have Rujina as our childminder. From day one, she created a warm, safe, and loving environment for our little one. She’s incredibly caring, patient, and attentive, and it’s clear she truly loves what she does.
Our child always comes home happy, well-fed, and full of stories about their day. Rujina keeps us updated with pictures and messages, which gives us real peace of mind while we’re at work.
Her home is clean, welcoming, and filled with fun and learning activities. It feels like a second home. We’ve seen real growth in our child’s confidence and social skills since being in her care.
We can’t thank Rujina enough she’s been such a blessing to our family. Highly recommended to any parent looking for someone who will genuinely care for and nurture their child.

Our son has been at Little Seeds for over 2 years now, aged 1 to 3, and is about to transition into a bigger setting to prepare for school. We have really loved and appreciated Paula's care and support - she really 'gets' our son and all his quirks and meets him where he's at. He has learnt so much with Paula and benefited from the variety of experiences and trips she has made possible for the children in her care, and through her strong network of childminders in the local area. I would recommend Little Seeds to any parents looking for a small but truly educational AND caring setting in the area. Paula is second to none!
This has been our first experience of using a baby sitter, so we weren't sure what to expect. As soon as we met Jay, she put us completely at ease. She is an absolutely lovely person, and its immediately clear to see how brilliant she is with children. My daughter (6) loved spending time with her. I know that she is in great hands with Jay. We've since used Jay again when something last minute came up, and Jay was not only happy to step in, but also offered to have our daughter an extra hour so that we could have dinner together. I'm so grateful to have found Jay and can only imagine we'll be using her babysitting services for a long time to come.

Our 6 and 3 year-old spent a few days with Kellie over the summer. They had great throughout doing a wide array of outdoors activities. The kids came back every day energised with a smile on their faces.
I'd highly recommend Kellie to anyone. She's friendly, caring, responsive, punctual and flexible to accommodate your childcare needs.
We had this childminder for almost 3 years. My daughter is now 6 but still remembers her, especially the outings and crafts.
This childminder bonds deeply with children and they treat her like a family.
She teaches them about boundaries, rules and coexisting in a group.
My daughter became a great walker under her care (thanks to all extensive walks!) and was incredibly school-ready, something that this childminder is very focused on. My daughter was very well prepared to function in a group, speaking her mind calmly and sensibly.
She still misses her carer and loves the throwback to the years spent under her care.
I simply know there could be no better childminder for my daughter.
Kelci has looked after our son brilliantly - she always has such a sunny disposition and makes each day fun and interesting for the kids she looks after. She is the perfect balance of firm but kind and nurturing; our son has absolutely thrived with her and she has really helped build his confidence. He has often told me how much he loves going to Kelci’s - we will really miss her!
My daughter, who is nearly 4, has been attending Claire's setting for almost a year now and she's been enjoying it so much! Claire is a very friendly and welcoming person, who makes children feel comfortable as well as gives parents much needed reassurance that our kids are in good hands. She provides children with lots of different activities and always makes sure children are well-looked after. My daughter settled in very quickly which was lovely to observe and she just loves attending Claire's setting, where she has made lots of friends. I highly recommend Claire's childminding, you can rest assured your child will be well-supported and safe.
We cannot express just how much our 2yo daughter has loved spending time with Codie over the past 8 months! It brings us great joy to see her face light up when we say Codie is coming to play!
Codie is exceptionally professional and capable, including recently helping us with delights of toilet training! She is thoughtful about planning her days with us, spending time at home if we needed but also exploring parks, zoos and soft plays. She plans activities such as baking, crafts and painting or water play.
She is on-time, tidy, communicable and flexible, and you can see the passion and care she has for children. Would thoroughly recommend!

Our son has been with Sweetpeas for the past three years. From the very beginning, Libby & Angie created the most nurturing, loving, and thoughtful environment for him to grow and thrive. Their setting is wonderfully homely, with a fantastic outdoor space, and a clear focus on learning through fun, engaging, and creative daily activities.
Thanks to their care and dedication, our son has developed in every possible way – emotionally, socially, and academically – and is now more than ready to start school. While we are so sad that he has to say goodbye, we are beyond grateful to Libby and Angie for everything they’ve done to prepare him for this next step.
One of the many highlights of Sweetpeas is the weekly playgroup that they run, which the children absolutely adore. It's just one of the many ways they go above and beyond to make every day special.
We feel very lucky that our daughter is still with Libby and Angie, so we get to enjoy this wonderful setting for a little longer. It brings so much peace of mind knowing your child is truly happy, safe, and well cared for – and that’s exactly what Sweetpeas provides.
We couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Libby and Angie are simply fantastic.
