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.

Nanditha - Cambridge
Reviewed

Nanditha first reached out to me on childcare services. She was prompt initially in responding to my messages and even gave a previous parents number to get reference. The reference was recommending her. So I decided to go with her has she indicated the most availability among other providers I was speaking to for my chosen dates.

It was first week for me in a new job and so I was very much dependant on her starting. However, she messaged closer to date saying her vacation got extended so she cannot start on the agreed date but can start one day later. It was already inconvenient but I said okay.

And the second day when she was supposed to show up there was no replies for my messages and it looked like she has even blocked my number on whatsapp as I see my messages are not being delivered at all.

I was absolutely shocked by this unprofessional and irresponsible behaviour. I have had much success finding good childminders and nannies on childcare services in the past.

I want to share my experience here only because I don't want others to go through the same experience. If you are looking for reliable care I will suggest look elsewhere.

Emily has been babysitting my 7-year-old, 4-year-old, and 10-month-old weekly for the past six months, and they all absolutely adore her.
She is kind, patient, and attentive, always taking the time to play and engage with the children while ensuring they are safe and well cared for. I always feel completely at ease leaving them in Emily’s care.
We feel very lucky to have found her and would highly recommend Emily to any family.

Afia - Aberdeen

I had my 9 Month old in with Afia on a Weekly basis, he was always so excited to be there and even on collection he would be far too excited with playing with Afia to want to leave. She was always very good with updating me with what he had been upto and also felt she listened to any concerns or wishes I had for my son. She spent time teaching him things/ singing songs and helping his development. I would use her again in a heartbeat!

Maria is an outstanding, dedicated person; you can see how much she likes working with kids. I have an 11-month-old baby, and she absolutely excelled at replicating my baby's routine and stimulating her.
I think Maria's nursery experience is a huge plus because she learned super quickly and made us feel very comfortable and relieved to have her take care of our baby from day 1.

We had a wonderful experience with Shabana today while she was caring for our son, Krish. From the moment she arrived, she was warm, attentive, and highly professional. She quickly built a lovely rapport with Krish, making him feel comfortable and engaged.

Shabana demonstrated great patience and genuine care throughout the day. She kept Krish happily occupied with activities, ensured his needs were met, and maintained a calm and positive environment. It was clear that she is experienced and truly enjoys working with children.

Sadrish has been a very reliable, kind and trustworthy babysitter.

I never have to worry about her being late as she will always be on time to look after my daughter.

She plays with her, gets her ready and seems to really care about her well being. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. Thank you Sadrish!

I couldn’t be happier with the care my daughter receives from Vanna. As a parent of a 2-year-old, I was naturally very nervous about leaving her with someone new, but she made the entire process so easy and reassuring from the very beginning.

My daughter absolutely loves going and gets so excited every time—it really shows how comfortable and happy she is there. It gives me such peace of mind knowing she is in such a warm, caring, and nurturing environment.

She always goes above and beyond, planning so many fun activities and outings that keep the children engaged, learning, and developing. It’s clear how much effort and love she puts into her work.

I truly couldn’t recommend her enough—she is amazing at what she does and has made such a positive impact on both me and my daughter.

Vanna looked after my LG from 9 months to 3 years old, and she now looks after my LB. There was no doubt in my mind that when I fell pregnant again, Vanna would be the one to look after my LB. Vanna has beautiful, kind nature, my children absolutely adore her and so do I. It's hard going back to work and leaving littles but Vanna makes it so much easier. Vanna provides a safe place to learn and have lots of fun, from play groups, to the zoo nowhere goes unmissed. Thank you for all that you do! X

Tammy - Birmingham
Reviewed

My 4 year old has been looked after by Tammy since she was 11 months old (after we removed her from a nursery) and she has absolutely thrived!! She loves Tammy, and her family, and never wants to come home! We had no hesitation asking Tammy to look after our latest addition when we fell pregnant again. Now we have a 1 year old that doesn’t want to come home either!
Our girls are absolutely spoiled while they’re there and Tammy’s home is dedicated to the children she cares for! Her home is always spotless and the girls are always well fed! You can tell Tammy genuinely loves her job! I wouldn’t hesitate recommending her to anyone considering a childminder!

Debbie - BOOTLE
Reviewed

My baby has loved coming here since his visits in December and I could not recommend enough! So loving and absolutely amazing! My baby boy loves them to bits and he’s so happy being there and you can see all the fun all day with so many pictures and updates which is so lovely to see! Such a lovely home setting and so much fun that they do and fun days out too! So glad I picked Debbie’s daycare and there’s more years of my baby to enjoy and soon tell me the fun stories of his day. They send out weekly menus which is very good for all ages too food wise and price is brilliant for the amazing fun and learning too. Such a friendly setting and the communication is brilliant makes me as a first time mum feel brilliant and so at ease

We have had Hannah on 2 occasions now and my boys absolutely loved her!!! She’s so reliable and I instantly felt at ease when I met her considering this was the first time we have had anyone other than family to look after the boys!! We will 100% be keeping in touch for future occasions!

She is exactly who she said she was. She is funny, kind and always knows how to make my daughter smile. And she is very worth it and is recommended. She takes excellent care of my daughter.

Lisa J - Glasgow
Reviewed

Lisa has been wonderful at looking after our 15 month old daughter over the last few months. She is friendly, fun, open, caring and passionate about her job.

She is really active with our daughter and always makes the effort to get out and about to classes and parks, interacting and socialising with other babies and parents - our daughter has a lot of friends in the area we just moved all thanks to Lisa!

She is very organised and has helped create a regular routine for us and our daughter on the days she is with us, which helps a lot.

CosyCubs - Milton Keynes

We have put our son when he was 15 months old. At that time they were having only 2-3 children but gradually they have increased taking children and there were 2 person taking care of kids. My son was active compare to other children. As they were not able to manage my child they have put my son on (PIP) which normally understands by adults but they think my son is adult🥲. Now as they have 7 children and they need more work with my son they have decided to remove my son from her child care and keep 6 children who are more easy to handle. Can u all believe it?? So if your child is active, this is wrong place.We have asked some suggestions how we can control and direct his energy but they dont have answers. Luckily we found chilcare now where my son is more loved and welcomed and feel more safe

roxy - London
Reviewed

We have nothing but positive things to say about our experience with Roxy. Our little boy joined her and her team at 11 months old, and from the very first meeting we felt completely at ease. Roxy is warm, professional and incredibly reliable, she communicates clearly, is always transparent and responds to any questions or concerns quickly.

Most importantly, our little boy has been so happy in her care. He goes to her happily in the mornings and is content when we pick him up, which says everything. During his time with Roxy, we’ve felt very confident in his development; he’s eaten and napped well, grown in confidence and we’ve seen him play and interact so nicely with the other children.

Roxy and her team provide a nurturing, caring environment and it’s clear how much she cares about the children and the work she does. We feel very grateful to have found Roxy and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. We recommend her wholeheartedly and will really miss our time with her.

Prudence - Basingstoke
Reviewed

Prudence cared for my daughter for 3 days a week from when she was 9 months old. She was extremely tentative always adapting her care for her latest stage and interests.
She gave the children a stable routine, gave them many activities on a daily basis, sang and danced with them, and focused on outdoor play.
She was great at keeping us up to date with what the day entailed, what/how much my daughter ate and nappies etc.
Prudence is also great at helping us work through the changes we made to our daughters routine during her care and assisted us (eg. Dropping bottles, removing dummies, all the way to potty training). I also applaud Prudence for always remaining gentle, peaceful and patient with our daughter (and the other children) during toddler strops and all the difficult behaviours young children can show.
My daughter wakes up daily and asks if she’s going to Prudences today, she absolutely loves it there and Prudence has cared for her as if she is one of her own.
I would send any other children I have to be cared by Prudence in a heartbeat 💗

Sophia - Brixton
Reviewed

My daughters started at the beginning of the year and I couldn’t be happier with the care my children receive from Sophia and her staff. From the very beginning, she has been warm, welcoming, and incredibly professional, which instantly put us at ease. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares about the children in her care, treating them as individuals and supporting their development in such a thoughtful way.

My kids absolutely love spending time here they go 3 days a week 8-6pm and always come home happy, settled, and full of stories about their day. She provides a clean, safe, nurturing environment with a great balance of learning, play, and routine since starting they’ve been on lots of trips to. I’ve really noticed a positive difference in their confidence, social skills, and overall happiness since being in her care.

Communication has also been excellent—she keeps me updated regularly and is always approachable if I have any questions or concerns I message her throughout the day and she always responds and she sends me photos of what my girls are up to everyday to. Knowing my children are in such capable and caring hands gives me real peace of mind.

We would highly recommend her to any parent looking for a reliable, kind, and dedicated childminder.

Caroline - fleet
Reviewed

We were very fortunate to find Caroline to look after our twin girls, and it’s has been over 3+ wonderful years now.
Caroline and her family have become an integral part of the girls lives, and they constantly provide a loving, caring and true “home from home” that the girls look forward to.
Caroline has been fantastic and her constant involvement in both teaching and nurturing the girls and providing the right development input over the years and at the required development stages has been valuable.

Caroline’s enthusiasm, energy and caring nature is evident and is reflected when seeing how happy and close all the kids in her care have and do become and we are proud that our girls could be a part of this.

Caroline will be truely missed when the girls move on to their next adventure and we are very greatful for everything over the years.

Thank you Caroline and family.
