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.
Gem has looked after our eldest daughter for a good few years now and we have only positive praise for her! She is great with kids of all ages (also recently looking after our 9 month old) and quickly built a rapport with our daughter who is very shy. Her kind and caring nature make her a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend her!
Sumayya is truly everything we could hope for to care for our son Sacha.
He is now 18 months old and has been in Sumayya's brilliant home nursery since he turned one.
He is excited to go to her with smiles and wide arms in the morning and he leaves grinning and giggling in the afternoons.
Communication about the day is excellent.
The resources, meals and activities are varied and impressive.
The environment is welcoming, safe and nurturing.
We could not be happier with the care received.
He struggled to transition out of being in only my care initially, and the patience, kindness and gentle persistence shown by Sumayya was so deeply reassuring.
We are so grateful for the socialisation Sacha is receiving in such a personal and supportive setting.
I would confidently recommend her without any hesitation.

Sarah and Andy are taking care of my 2 years and 7 months old son since November 2024 and we see them both as part of our family because of the all the pure love and good care they offered to my son every day since. My husband and I fully trust Sarah and Andy when our son is under their care and we absolutely love all of the educational activities they do together every week, including arts and crafts on special occasions, like Christmas for example. Our son comes home super happy all the time, he is always well fed too. There are times at the weekend when he is even asking to go Sarah and Andy because he misses them and mentions that Andy plays football with him in the garden and that they sing songs and have fun. On ad hoc bases at bedtime he will again mention Sarah saying “Sarah again mummy?” And when I say “yes baby tomorrow” he will put a big smile on saying “yay!” and then he starts a song they sang recently. Words can’t explain my appreciation and respect for Sarah and Andy. All I can say is that both are super professional and that they both do an amazing job taking care of my son and that I am very grateful for this. Thank you both, we are lucky to have you in our lives. Loads of love xxx
I am grateful to have found Jackie and would highly recommend her setting. My daughter, now nearly two and a half, has attended since 18 months.
As a first‑time mum looking for flexible childcare in a newly-established setting, I was initially anxious.
From the first visit Jackie’s experience, calm manner, and warmth reassured me. The environment is clean, spacious, and thoughtfully organised, with a wide range of accessible toys, activities, and outdoor space that promote independence and engagement.
Policies were clearly explained, and the settling‑in process was supportive and flexible. My daughter quickly formed a strong bond with Jackie and, over time, has developed lovely friendships with the other children. Jackie skilfully guides interactions in a kind and fair way.
Activities are always fun but also purposeful, linked to the Early Years Foundation Stage framework. I’ve appreciated the monthly themes, and especially the daily updates and photos. My daughter looks forward to attending and always comes home happy, energised, and full of stories. Her social and language skills have grown significantly, and Jackie has been a reassuring source of advice on day‑to‑day challenges.

My little boy has been going to Leanne’s since he was 9 months old up until he starts pre school. He has loved every minute! They do such a variety of activities throughout the week, which Leanne manages to combine with lots of learning. I would highly recommend Leanne & her childcare setting.
Leanne is absolutely the best! My little girl absolutely loves her and enjoys being with her. Her communication is brilliant and is always happy to help. I cannot honestly express how great Leanne is and how sad I am for my daughter to be starting nursery and leaving Leanne. Anyone that sends their child/children to Leanne will not regret it ☺️
Holly’s House Childminding has to be by far the best childminding service you could ever find. Our little one took a long while to settle in, as he was very clingy to us with separation anxiety. However Holly and Jon took this in their stride and worked very hard with our little one to increase his confidence when away from us, and to make him feel happier and involved when at Holly’s House. They never gave up on him and made sure he was always very loved and comfortable. This was a success as he is now extremely happy and excited to go to Holly’s House, and is so confident, getting involved in all activities and really enjoying himself; even reassuring and comforting other new starters when they are upset away from their parents.
The activities that Holly and Jon do with the children are amazing and varied, and definitely help the children to develop and thrive. They spend a lot of time outdoors and at the allotment with the animals too which we love, as our little one loves being outside in nature with animals. The activities at Holly’s House are very creative and always so much fun for the children.
Holly’s House is like a home away from home setting, where all of the children are extremely well looked after. Holly and Jon are becoming like family, and you can see that they have formed a very strong bond with our little one, which is important for him to feel secure.
Our little one is gluten intolerant, however before this allergy was identified and he was having meals there, the food was always very healthy, well thought out and varied. Holly and Jon even did a gluten free buffet so that our little boy could be involved at the Christmas party at Holly’s House.
Holly and Jon absolutely go above and beyond in all areas, and I’m convinced you’ll never find a better service than them.
I couldn't be happier with the care Leanne provides for my daughter. She is really happy and settled there. Leanne has made such a welcoming and nurturing setting, with a great balance of fun and learning. I'm always amazed at all the new things my daughter has learnt and developed. We feel very lucky to have her and would recommend her to any other parents looking for a childminder in the area 😊.
A gem of a nursery. I have been meaning to review for a while. This nursery is so welcoming and engaging. My 3yo had to change nurseries due to home relocation. She started in September 2025 and has been loving it ever since. My 6yo son also likes attending with her during the half term events. Diversity is lovely to have. It is not overcrowded which means the children can get substantial quality experiences. I feel that the staffing will easily adapt to having more new starters either way. The garden space is nice. The car park and church grounds make it a quiet and easy + safe drop off/pickup scenario. The staff are experienced, friendly and enthusiastic. A particular mention for Ms Erum and Ms Shital. Thank you to Ms Anishah (owner) for starting/keeping the nursery going for many years. Highly recommended nursery. I visited a couple of other settings when first choosing and this one really made me confident in my decision making for my now 4yo. I will send my 10mo baby in future.
My son attended an exceptional 4-weeks of fun, learning and friends-making time at Bonding School Nursery Bromley. I cannot state how happy I am for him and how disappointed I am for it only being 4 weeks! He adapted quite quickly and in the end, did not even want to leave upon pick ups!
I could not have dreamt of better nursery for him. The calm neighbourhood, amazing staff, great and cozy facility with garden and plenty of toys and the varied self-development activities made his stay quite unbeatable!
I would 100% recommend any parent for their child to join Teamara and Miss Denise’s facilities.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our son receives from Jackie. She runs such a perfectly structured and well-organised setting, which gives us complete confidence.
The activities she plans are always creative, engaging, and thoughtfully put together. Our son is constantly learning new things, developing new skills, and most importantly, having so much fun while doing it!
Jackie strikes the perfect balance of being firm but fair, setting clear boundaries while still being warm and nurturing. She communicates with us brilliantly, always keeping us informed and making us feel involved in our son’s development.
I would absolutely recommend her to any family looking for childcare. 🥰
My son went to Marta’s setting prior to starting Pre School, he absolutely loved it and so did we! Marta was always lovely and friendly, along with her team and they will be missed! They were always willing to help and always listened.
Marta has got a perfect set up in her home for the children to have lots of their own space both inside and out. They are constantly doing lovely imaginative play and crafts, which were sent home for us to enjoy. Every day is well planned to get the most out of all the children and most importantly for them to have fun and make great friends. Thank you Marta 🫶🏻
100% recommend.
My little boy Lennie is completely obsessed with Salma. Some days I’m fairly sure I’ve been bumped down to second place, and honestly, that’s exactly what you want from the person looking after your tiny human all week.
She’s warm, caring and clearly adores him. Every day they’re doing brilliant activities that have done wonders for his development. His 15-month-old energy has somewhere productive to go, which means he comes home happy, fulfilled and ready for some chill time after a busy day.
He doesn’t even glance back at me at drop-off which is equal parts reassuring and mildly upsetting in the best way :) . And when I collect him, I sometimes get the feeling he’d quite happily stay for overtime. The facilities are fantastic – clean, organised, fun and genuinely educational. It’s everything you’d hope for and more.
I get daily photo updates that I genuinely look forward to, plus a lovely little summary in his nursery book at the end of the day. He’s beautifully cared for and I trust Salma with him implicitly.
I feel incredibly lucky we found her. If Lennie could talk, I’m fairly certain he’d tell you the same. Don’t hesitate to get in touch with her – you absolutely won’t regret it.
Fay is an outstanding childminder, she is caring, kind and loving. Most importantly, Martha is so happy when she is with her. She started when she was 9 months old and since then she has started walking, saying her first words and eating well.
Fay offers a lovely environment for little ones, I’m so happy to have found such a great place for Martha. I would recommend her to anyone with a baby looking for a safe and loving environment, also offering a chance for babies to socialise and learn.

As a family we absolutely love Sarah and Andy and have done since our first visit. They were so welcoming and helped an anxious twin mum feel settled immediately. Our boys have been with them since they turned 1 (now almost 3) We chose Sarah and Andy due to having experience with twins and it was really important to us for them to have the home away from home environment. The boys absolutely love going to there and even want to visit at the weekends!! I wouldn’t hesitate with recommending them to anyone who is looking for childcare.
I cannot recommend Susan enough - such an incredibly calm, caring, kind and supportive Nanny who joined our family for two years - two years that were some of the best and most nurturing of my children's lives due to Susan’s influence and care. I will forever be grateful for all the help, support and care shown to our children during Susan’s time within our family. As a nanny Susan helped shape our little girl in her formative years and guide our eldest as he began to navigate school. We will
forever remember her impact and her kind, fair and professional Nanny support.
From proactive support with the children’s days to fun and engaging activities and attention to our family ways of living, eating, learning etc and our values Susan was extremely adaptable and became an integral part of our family life! The children adored her and still do and that trust and happiness from the children was so important.
For us as another milestone came along in our family, it was time for a change in all our lives and our childcare arrangements but I would recommend Susan wholeheartedly as a Nanny.
She is truly an exceptional tutor! She works with my toddler and has been absolutely incredible from day one. She is warm, kind, patient, and has built such a beautiful connection with my child. Because of the strong bond they’ve developed, my child is always excited and eager for their speech and language, English, and math lessons.
The progress has been amazing. My child has learned to read, can clearly communicate her wants and needs, and has grown so much in confidence. It’s been such a joy to watch!
What really sets her apart is how thoughtfully she plans each lesson. She brings engaging props and toys, making learning fun, interactive, and perfectly suited for young children. Her dedication, creativity, and genuine care truly shine through in everything she does.
I cannot recommend her highly enough. She has made such a positive impact on our family, and we feel so lucky to have found her!
