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.
I feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful childminder for my daughter. From the very beginning, she has created a safe, caring, and nurturing environment where my daughter has truly thrived. Being a first time mum, I was very nervous sending my daughter, but she settled in very quickly with Ana.
My daughter is always happy and excited to go, which speaks volumes. It’s clear how much love and attention she gives to each child, and I have seen such positive development in my daughter’s confidence, social skills, and learning.
Communication has always been excellent — I was updated regularly, with photos throughout the day which gave me real peace of mind. Inaya loved the regular trips to the park and plenty of outdoor play.
I couldn’t recommend Ana highly enough. I am so gutted that we have had to cut this journey short. Thank you so much for what you have done for Inaya. We will miss you!!
Fatima has been an incredible childminder, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Hannah has been with her for the past two years, and throughout that time Fatima has provided a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where she has truly flourished.
From day one, Fatima welcomed Hannah as if she were part of her own family. She has always been kind, patient, caring, and attentive, and it has given us complete peace of mind knowing our daughter was so well looked after every day.
Hannah has learned so much during her time with Fatima. Her confidence, independence, communication, and social skills have grown tremendously, thanks to the wonderful activities, encouragement, and support Fatima provides. Every day was filled with fun, learning, creativity, and genuine care.
What makes Fatima so special is the love and dedication she puts into every child she looks after. She builds such meaningful relationships with both the children and their families, and it is clear that caring for children is much more than just a job to her—it is her passion.
Claire takes care of my little girl and has done since she was 9 months. She is two in November. Zara has settled in so well with Claire. She loves going out to the park and on walks with Claire and the other children she looks after. Claire sends photos and keeps me in the loop which makes me feel at ease throughout the day. Zara always comes out with a smile on her face and a clean nappy. Would recommend claire to anyone looking for a friendly, reliable childminder.

My little boy was here for 15 months and has since day one always loved going there. Hanane is a very caring childminder and her family and are just as lovely and has taken such good care of my boy. They go to the park everyday, he loves her home cooked meals and they do fun activities every day that she updates us on! Hanane is not only a great childminder but also a very loving person that we have become very fond of and she has been so vital in his development in his early years and has been like a second family to us. I always know that he is so well looked when he is there. We are eternally grateful that we have had such an amazing childminder in our lives and I can not recommend her enough!

Amy has been a wonderful part of our family life in Cambridge. She is a highly skilled and experienced nanny and we couldn’t recommend her more highly. She has been an integral part of our sons’ development.
Amy is deeply embedded in Cambridge and knows lots of parents and playgroup organizers who all think the world of her (they’ve told us so, unprompted, many times). Amy has helped our son make friends and build relationships. She’s arranged social plans for our son with other families, and during term breaks (when playgroups are on break) has arranged outings with friends to the zoo and museums to keep things fun.
Amy is patient and kind. She is calm, even keeled, and deeply in tune with our son. She has helped him grow as a little person and created such a loving, stable environment for him.
We couldn't be happier with the care Harpreet provides for our daughter. Leaving your child with someone new is always daunting, but our daughter adjusted so quickly to Harpreet's warm and welcoming environment.
She absolutely thrives there! She eats brilliantly during her time with Harpreet, and she is always so happy when we pick her up. In fact, she loves it so much that even on her days off, she asks if she can go to "school"!
Beyond her wonderful care, Harpreet puts a fantastic emphasis on early education. Our daughter is learning so much—from numbers and alphabets to fun poems and songs.
Harpreet is also incredibly accommodating and flexible, often helping us out with last-minute schedule requests, which has been an absolute lifesaver for our family.
We are so grateful to have found Harpreet and cannot recommend her highly enough to any parent looking for a loving, educational, and reliable childminder!
We highly recommend Maloryn. She was a truly wonderful nanny to our two sons (aged 7 and 4) for over a year, and we are so grateful for the care she provided them. We still try to find as many opportunities as we can for her to come and babysit occasionally as the boys miss seeing her more regularly.
Maloryn has a brilliantly child-led approach; she took the time to really get to know the boys as individuals, understanding all of their unique likes, dislikes, and personalities. She is constantly coming up with fantastic, fun crafting ideas that keep them engaged and creative.
Beyond her wonderful creativity, her core approach is deeply loving, patient, and understanding. It is abundantly clear how much she genuinely cares for our children, and they adore her in return. From a parent's perspective, she is extraordinarily reliable, professional, and an excellent communicator. She somehow always left the house so perfectly tidy and she is also an incredible cook.
Any family would be very lucky to have her!
My son absolutely loved spending time with her and was always happy and excited to see her. She puts her whole heart into caring for children and always paid close attention to sons’s needs, making sure he felt safe, happy, and cared for. She is kind, patient, reliable, and genuinely caring. We are so grateful for everything she has done for our family, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing babysitter. ❤️
I cannot recommend Natural Learners highly enough! The setting is always exceptionally clean, welcoming, and thoughtfully set up for learning and play.
What I love most is the focus on regular outdoor play and the small group environment. Having fewer children means my child gets plenty of individual attention tailored to their specific development, which has made a noticeable difference in their confidence and skills. It’s the perfect blend of a warm, home-from-home feel and an enriched educational space. We feel so lucky to have found this setting!
Our daughter has been attended Tricia’s early years setting since she was 10 months old. She is now 3 and a half.
From the first time on meeting Tricia, we knew in our hearts that our little girl would be in safe hands. Tricia is a loving and kind care giver and our daughter absolutely loves being there during the week.
Tricia offers an outstanding selection of activities throughout the week that meet the educational milestones of all the children. Every day has plenty of variety and our daughter thoroughly enjoys this.
Tricia has also provided our family with guidance and advice which has been gratefully welcome with us being first time parents.
We are forever grateful that our daughter attends Tricia’s setting as nothing else can compare! Tricia’s setting is like a home from home where our daughter is made to feel welcome and safe whilst we are at work.
I was recently at a wedding where Kellie looked after the child of the bride and groom before hosting a pyjama film evening for all the children at the wedding. It was so nice for all the adults to enjoy the evening festivities, knowing that our children were in great hands. We were in contact with Kellie before the day, giving details to help with the evening, and Kellie took the time to know the children before the film started, so they were all comfortable and happy. Our son had a great time, and was fast asleep when we went to collect him at midnight! We can’t thank the bride and groom enough for having such a child friendly wedding, and for Kellie for making all the parents and children feel super comfortable. Would totally recommend.
Can’t speak highly enough of Charlie Bears. My daughter has been there from the start and absolutely loves it. Charlie and the team are absolute stars, we’ve been so lucky to find such an amazing nursery. I look forward to the daily photo updates to see what fun she’s been having and see her developing when we can’t be with her. If you’re looking for a nursery in Charlton Kings, this is the one. I’d give it 6 stars if I could.
Honestly wouldn’t recommend. I tried to give her the benefit of the doubt, but the lack of professionalism and communication was just too much.
She literally drove to my house, parked outside, then texted me from her car saying she couldn’t babysit that day. No warning, despite already being outside my house. It left me completely stuck having to sort childcare last minute.
Even after that, I decided to give her one last chance as a backup babysitter, but she couldn’t even reply to my message.
When you’re trusting someone with your child, reliability is the bare minimum. Unfortunately, that wasn’t my experience.

My son loves going to Leanne's! We were a little worried about how he would settle in as he only attends once a week, but he settled in straight away and is always happy to go in. He really enjoys his time with Leanne and loves all the fun activities she has planned, as well as the outings they go on together. It's lovely to see how much he's learning too—he often comes home singing new songs or showing a new understanding of things he's been learning while he's there. It's so reassuring to know he's happy, thriving, and so well cared for. I would definitely recommend Leanne to anyone looking for a caring, nurturing, and engaging childcare setting!
Monica is very caring and loving with the twins. They both love her and will always give her cuddles when they see her or saying good bye. She is very attentive and observant with them and will often notice their development before even we have. She has helped with their development and introduced different toys and developmental activities as they grow. She is also firm, fair and calm with them when they are mis-behaving. Her home is immaculate and a really welcome environment for the kids. We will be sad to leave her.

We had never used a babysitter that wasn’t family before so we’re a little apprehensive. We didn’t need to worry as Becky was a hit with the children. She eased their anxieties and had some great strategies to get them to sleep. She was really calm and accommodating. We (including the children) would definitely recommend Becky again.

We're so pleased with the care our 11 year old receives from Amy. She picks our daughter up from school and looks after her at home until we get back, and from day one we've felt completely at ease.
She's caring, reliable, and has built a lovely rapport with our daughter, who always feels comfortable and well looked after in her company. Communication is great too, we always know our child is in safe hands.
We'd happily recommend Amy to any parent looking for a kind and dependable childminder.
