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.
Our 5-year-old has made such great progress in phonics and maths thanks to Emma! She’s patient, creative, and always makes learning fun. We really appreciate her punctuality and dedication — every lesson is engaging and well-prepared. So thankful for the positive impact she’s had on our daughter’s confidence and love for learning!
Michelle helped me out when our previous childminder couldn’t have my twin girls for odd days. I moved the girls into nursery earlier this year but they could only do 4 days so I went to Michelle for Fridays. The girls love going to ‘Chelle’s and have a wonderful time every week. They get very excited on a Thursday and can’t wait to get there.
Michelle is fantastic with them and has ‘adopted’ them both into her family. Her own kids are brilliant at playing with them too. I’ll be sad when the twins go to school next September!
Our 16 months old toddler has been with Cherie since he was 11 months old. Cherie is not only very good with children, she also taught them a lot of skills and speech, we often found and surprised by Ethan’s development when he came home. Cherie is also very patient and accommodating. We are very happy that we found her as our childminder for Ethan so we always know that he’s well looked after when we were at work.

Karen is a fabulous child minder. She was recommended to us and we feel lucky to work with her. We were immediately impressed when first meeting her with how well she understood our son and the interest she took in him. It was the first big separation and this was taken seriously, she worked with us to create a smooth transition in the settling in, helping us all to manage this. He loves playing at her home with all her fantastic toys, and going on all the outings and adventures on the Heath, to Playgroups, the City Farm and zoo, and 1 o’clock club. He has made genuine friendships with the children he is interacting with, and has a ton of fun. Karen looks after him with care, paying close attention to his emotional, social and physical needs. He takes good naps with her, eats well and even tries new foods!
Karen is very accommodating and helpful. She keeps in great contact with us providing updates which inevitably show a fun day out. It is very special to receive the art work they make together, and the special book she puts it in. We can’t thank her enough for her care. It’s been a really good experience for our son, and for us as a family.
We’ve had Sheilla with us for several months now, and she has been absolutely amazing. As a night nanny, she has given us the gift of rest and peace of mind. I can completely relax knowing our baby is in her care. She mainly looks after our newborn, who has had some stomach issues, and she’s truly been a lifesaver — on nights when our baby is struggling to sleep, Sheilla is there with calm, capable support. She bonded with our newborn immediately, and even our toddler — who only had to spend five minutes with her one morning to fall in love — asks about her throughout the day, which is such a testament to her warmth and gentle nature. We’re so grateful to have her in our lives and couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Sam has been a childminder for both our girls from ages 6months. I can’t rate her high enough. She offers a setting that is like a home away from home, where children are loved, safe, nurtured and go on lots of adventures.
Both my girls have thrived under Sam’s care and have so much love for her and her family.
Sam has always been able to accommodate an early drop off or late pick up if it has come up unexpectedly.
Sam offers a beautiful home setting with lots of toys and activities for all ages as well as regular trips out and about.

Kajal is great with communication to start with, very accommodating, has a routine, lots of age appropriate toys, outdoor space, lovely fresh food she provides and is just like a family.
She takes him to park, library does activities at home. Not like others who hires people and treat as business. She has an empathy and work with you child.
The meeting with her and the communication even before my daughter stayed with her was fantastic
Alisa has been great with my daughter for the last week and half she has looked after her
Sends me pictures keeps me updated on what she has been doing through the day
Can't recommend her enough
Claire really saved the day for me and instantly made me feel at ease. My son had such a wonderful time. Claire creates such a safe, supportive, and fun environment. He came home full of stories and keeps asking, “When can I go to Claire’s again?” You can tell she genuinely cares about the children she looks after, and her home is filled with warmth and laughter.
We feel so lucky to have found her and couldn’t recommend her more highly!
Our little boy was with Beckah from when he was just over a year to when he was 3.5 and he absolutely loved it. Beckah's family setting was just perfect for what we wanted before he started preschool. They went out on lots of days out, to playgroup, the farm, soft play etc so it meant that he had the best of both worlds, with a small relaxed setting but still socialised well with lots of other children. He was treated like one of the family and was just so excited to go everyday. Some days he didn't want to leave!
Roxy has been taking care of my daughter for over a year and we couldn't be happier. In the first few weeks Roxy was so positive and reassuring, helping all of us get used to the new routine. We felt like we were in good hands from the very start. This is our first child and it's been great to get her experienced advice on a few different issues since then, and Roxy has even looked after her for an overnight stay when we were going to a no-kids wedding. We also love that lots of the kids who attend live close by, which means it there is a proper little community of families all connected through Roxy. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Roxy and her team.

Michelle has been nothing but fantastic with our little one. She has been caring for him 5 days a week since I returned back to work full time when he was 9 months old. His social schedule is a delight to hear about and we trust Michelle with our son like we would a close member of the family- so much so that she is providing childcare/is a guest at our wedding! The experiences and interactions he has with Michelle, the other children in her care, and the locations they go and visit are so so valuable to us as parents and we agree we completely lucked out when we found such a wonderful and caring childcare provider. She has provided advice when we wish to discuss our little one’s development, and I really admire her parenting style. Our little one will be with her until school-although if you do wish to start your own school we will be the first ones to sign up!
We are regularly provided with picture and text updates through the day- it’s so reassuring knowing that he is having fun, and the accompanying funny stories are always a welcome respite from work.
Our daughter has been with Jodie since she was one year old and has absolutely thrived. The warm, homely environment helped her settle in quickly, and she genuinely loves going. Regular outings—such as soft play and train trips to nearby towns—make each week exciting. We couldn’t be happier with the care she receives.
Marisol is warm, caring, and fully engaged when she’s with the children. My daughter absolutely loves spending time with her, and it’s easy to see how comfortable and happy she feels in Marisol’s presence.
Marisol is always punctual, kind and attentive . She brings a lovely balance of gentleness and enthusiasm to her care, creating a nurturing and positive environment.
I would highly recommend Marisol to any family looking for someone dependable and truly dedicated to child care.
