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 am writing to confirm that Becca was employed by our family from July 2023 to November 2023. She initially joined us as a nightly maternity nurse, supporting us through the early weeks with our newborn. Her expertise, calm demeanour, and reliable overnight care were invaluable. As our needs evolved, she transitioned seamlessly into a maternity nanny role, providing daytime support, nurturing care, and gentle routine guidance for our baby. Her professionalism, warmth, and commitment gave us peace of mind during a crucial period. The role ended due to our planned relocation back to the USA in November 2023, otherwise we would have gladly continued with her support.
Becca was responsible for all aspects of childcare.
Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Food prep and transitioning to weaning with my youngest. Getting them dressed and ready and all aspects of baby hygiene. She would assist with child related duties such as their laundry and cleaning of play areas.
Becca was always very respectful of our home and treated it with care tidying up after herself. Becca provided specialist care for my son who has severe silent reflux and was medicated from a very young age. Becca also identified my youngest had jaundice when returning home from the hospital for which he ended up receiving light therapy treatment.
Becca encouraged early weaning to help with some of the reflux related issues we faced. She also helped us schedule a routine to get our little one self settling and sleeping through the night by around 5-6 months.
Sole charge of 18 m/o girl. Planning all age appropriate activities and outings. Going to scheduled classes 3 times a week (gymnastics, football and ballet). Then arranging all activities outside of this. Then would take her also to swimming, museums, the zoo, parks, soft play and playgroups.
Becca was an excellent nanny I am gutted she would not relocate to Surrey with us but I totally understand. She was reliable, punctual and very organised. Becca was incredible always engaging my daughter, hosting play dates with her friends like a Christmas card making morning, taking her to Christmas parties and friends parties. I saw my daughter’s language skills and social skills improve immensely with her time spent with Becca. She gained her own friendship groups and become very empathetic and considerate of others around her.
M is now thriving and I believe being around Becca was key to this developmental and personality change. I definitely saw the difference with how my child responded to Becca then with her previous nannies, she was a totally different child, confident, curious, fearless and so caring and she was so happy, before she was very quiet, reserved and scared of new things.
Alex looked after our daughter for 3 years and it was the best start to our her education. Alex's childminding setting is warm and welcoming and gives the children the opportunity to thrive while being outside in her wonderful garden. Our daughter came away all set for school with an added bonus of some Spanish. Alex really takes the time to learn what makes your child unique and will work with you on any issues you or your child may be facing.
If you are looking for a 'home-from-home' environment for your child, Mi Casa is the place for you
Uzma helps with drop off and pick up for my daughter a year now, she has never ever been late, spot on time every day. She also cheers up my daughter in the morning when some days are difficult for the child to wake up and go and encourages her. Uzma has lot of patience and is very kind, caring. I feel extremely content, happy and safe to have my child with her at all times. She would not mind to go and pick up my child in between school timings if required. Uzma has lot of experience and knows exactly how to look after children, my daughter loves going with Uzma and does not want anyone else to do the pick or drop off. She enjoys Uzma's company a lot, very lucky to have her, I would highly recommend her to any parent.
Victoria came to babysit my 2 children 7 and 4yo for the day. She was a lovely person, very smiley and bubbly. My children were talking about her the whole evening after that and my youngest even said she wants to see Victoria again soon☺️. Would definitely recommend her and thank you again for your hard work!

We had such a wonderful experience with Tammy. From the moment we made contact, she was incredibly warm, attentive, and responsible. Our daughter absolutely adores her. Tammy is patient, engaging, and genuinely loved spending time with her.
There’s no better feeling than knowing your child is in safe and loving hands. We’re so grateful to have found Tammy, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring babysitter.
Sarah has been looking after my little girl for years and has always been so supportive and understanding always professional and fun activities for the children.
My little girl loves going there and always talking about her children.
Can't recommend Sarah enough so professional and always gives lots of advanced notifications and emails of any changes.
We will miss her when we move on to primary.
Elaine has been fantastic. My child has been so happy there and looks forward to going every morning. Elaine opens the door with a smile and invests a lot of time and care in my child’s development.
Elaine is very good at keeping in constant communication with the parents. She sends regular updates and photos from the day which is much appreciated.
Elaine is very active with the kids and has a lot of variety in the activities she does with them. She makes sure they go out every day to playgroups and takes them on outings to museums, galleries, the library and parks during half term.
Highly recommend Elaine – she is dedicated and devoted and has built a wonderful nurturing and warm environment for young children to grow, learn, explore and play.
Emma Lou looks after my three children before and after school, and she’s been amazing. The kids love going to her. She’s kind and organised. Mornings are smooth and stress-free, and after school she keeps them happy, fed, and engaged. I feel so lucky to have found her. Highly recommended! xx
Cheryl has been caring for both of our daughters since September 2019 and is currently childminding our youngest, Sophia, three times a week. From the outset, Cheryl has treated our children with the utmost love, care and kindness, creating a warm and nurturing environment that has helped them thrive.
One of the most reassuring aspects of Cheryl’s care is the peace of mind she gives us as parents. On mornings when Sophia may be upset at drop-off, we know she is going to a safe and comforting place where she is well looked after. We have never had any concerns regarding safeguarding, and Cheryl consistently maintains a professional and child-centred approach.
Cheryl keeps us updated throughout the day with regular messages and photos, which we find incredibly helpful and reassuring. She provides a balanced and healthy diet, ensuring that Sophia is well-fed with nutritious meals.
Each day is thoughtfully planned and full of variety. Whether it's indoor creative activities or trips outside, there’s always something engaging. Sophia enjoys visits to the park, library, soft play, playgroups, farms, and messy play events, all of which support her development and social skills.
Cheryl has also been very supportive with potty training, offering gentle encouragement and consistency. Her communication with us is excellent, and we particularly appreciate the detailed progress folder she shares every half term. The reports are always accurate and reflective of the children’s true abilities and character, clearly demonstrating how well she knows them – first with Annabelle and now with Sophia.
We are incredibly grateful for the care Cheryl provides and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to other families.

Shilpi is a kind, caring and dedicated childcare professional who I would recommend without hesitation.
She was respectful and understanding when I was worried about leaving my daughter, listening to all my requests and supporting wherever she could. When my daughter was struggling to settle without me, Shilpi asked her favourite songs, foods, toys and activities to make sure she felt as safe as possible, and it was clear how much care and effort was being out in to ensuring my daughter was happy and well looked after.
Thank you Shilpi
Our little one has been with Jess for just over a year and moving him from a nursery setting has been the best thing we ever did.
Jess is an amazing practitioner, always thinking of ways to encourage children’s learning and building upon their likes.
Jess provides daily updates with pictures (something we rarely got at his nursery setting!) she keeps us informed of his daily learning and a general run down of the day.
Jess has created some amazing experiences my little one wouldn’t of received in a normal nursery setting such as visits to national trust grounds, strawberry picking, visits to an equestrian centre twice monthly to look after a pony, trips to the park, library etc.
Alongside these amazing outings, Jess provides a great learning space in her home and garden. She’s invested in her garden to encourage learning through play outside as well as creating some lovely spaces inside her home such as the play room and reading snug!
Jess has always been clear on her illness policies and we respect these as we know she is looking out for other children in her setting and ensuring her setting is safe for all.
It must be noted that since starting with Jess, our little one has grown ten fold. She has encouraged his speech and his independence as well as his love for the outdoors and animals around him. We are so pleased we get to stay with Jess for another year before school and I will recommend Jess to anyone who asks for a childminder.
Charlotte has looked after our daughter for some time now & she gets excited & has the biggest smile on her face every morning when I tell her we’re going to see Charlotte.
Charlotte was super helpful through those early months giving helpful hints and tips she’s picked up along the way, working really closely with us so that we never missed a moment, like our daughters first steps or first words & many other developmental milestones.
Charlotte plans lots of fun activities for the kids & you can grantee that the little ones will have a great day full of learning, playing & burning off that energy!
Be that visiting Zoo’s, Farms, Country parks, Soft Play areas, having play dates with other childminders & children, playgroups, music groups and so much more!
We love seeing the photo’s shared with us of our daughter having so many adventures and so much fun everyday! Along with the little notes to let us know what she’s been upto.
Every morning there is a different selection of different toys for the kids to play with & all the children in the setting have a great bond.
There’s often a themed activity to look forward to linked to what is going on, be that Chinese new year, Easter, Christmas, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day etc. & as a result our fridge is bustling with priceless pieces of art our daughter has created whilst with Charlotte & her friends she has made in the setting.
Charlotte has been a hugely positive influence on our daughter & it’s been amazing to see their relationship grow & develop so much in the time they have been together. This great foundation has enabled our daughter to flourish.
I would highly recommend Charlotte as a childminder.
We’ve had a wonderful experience with this nursery over the past few weeks. The team has been incredibly welcoming, and a special mention to Ashleigh and Lauren who have always been positive, approachable, and genuinely caring. They listen to our concerns, cater thoughtfully to our son’s dietary needs, and consistently bring out the best in him. On Ashleigh’s advice, we recently moved to half-day sessions twice a week, which has worked really well. Another thing we love is the daily activity summary we receive at pick-up — it gives us great insight into his day and reassures us that he’s happy and well looked after. Would definitely recommend this nursery to other parents!
The best thing we ever did, was locate Jess❤️. I was provided her details from a friend. My little girl will be four in August. Olivia's progress in 1 year has been amazing. The attention to the children's learning and the beautiful setting, she runs in so happy. I can see an amazing family network and animals which feels like a second family for Olivia. Olivia daily cant wait to return to be with her friends, stories, music and play time. Children are out all day long , regular updates as to their progress and learning. Really useful advise to Olivia's health and illness. Olivia starts school in Sept, she is so ready thanks to Jess hard work, setting and commitment. We have a good relationship, i will be sad when Olivia starts school . I really believe Jess would made a great teacher, Olivia every day ❤️ the progression. Thank you
We feel incredibly lucky to have found Ania and Andy. Our 16-month-old daughter absolutely loves going to their setting — she is always happy, excited, and never cries at drop-off. From day one, she felt comfortable with them, and it’s clear she sees “Auntie Ania” and “Uncle Andy” as family — and so do we.
Ania and Andy care for the children with genuine love and warmth. They treat each child like their own, creating a safe, fun, and stimulating environment. They have so many creative ideas for learning and play, and the children are constantly engaged, developing both intellectually and emotionally while having a great time.
Uncle Andy plays the piano beautifully, which brings so much joy to the children — it’s something truly unique. Thanks to all the interaction and care, our daughter started speaking much earlier than expected.
We honestly couldn’t imagine better childcare. The Hamiltons are exceptional, and we are so grateful for the amazing care they provide every day.
Lynn has provided care for my 2 children to an outstanding level. Lynn is highly skilled and the children thrive in her setting . Lynn really embeds community engagement in her setting and the children are taken to multiple activities around the town. These activities really support child development and have supported my daughter to thrive in this setting. My Daughter starts school this time ( she has been with Lynn since she was 1 year old ) and she is more than school ready, she is exceeding all her milestones and has excellent knowledge of the world around her. My daughter’s numeracy and literally skills have really excelled and I put this down to Lynn and the daily teaching while accessing the community and giving my child experiences she wouldn’t have got if she had been in a nursery setting.
Personal care has always been to a high level and my daughter’s care needs have always been met well , Lynn also supported me to give expressed breast milk which I sent for my daughter when she was small.
The setting it’s self is lovely and had a good range of toys and books , Lynn will get out different activities and learning tools to support the children and to keep them engaged. The outside space is lovely and a well equipped safe garden which the children always have access to.
Lynn promotes healthy eating inline with government guidelines and has supported my daughter to try a wide range of foods as she is a fussy eater.
Lynn uses an app and as parents it’s lovely to see pictures of what our daughter has been doing each day, especially when she was younger and couldn’t tell us. Now she comes in excited to tell us all the wonderful things that she has done and is excited for the next day.
Lynn collects our daughter and drops off everyday . She is always on time and over the years her sickness has been absolutely minimum so highly reliable.
Lynns relationships with the children is quite simply perfect , she is kind caring and so nurturing , but doesn’t aspire to replace a mum/ auntie / nanna role , Lynn is a true outstanding professional in this area and we have been so lucky to have her in our children’s life.
My Son is now 12 , but Lynn has been offering school holiday care for him since her was 6. My son has ASD, ADHD and a learning disability , Lynn welcomed him into her care when quite frankly we couldn’t find anywhere to meet his needs . Lynn has significant experience with children with additional needs and knows exactly how to manage his behaviours and triggers. My son continues to attend this setting from time to time and he absolutely loves going. As parents we feel that we have had the best care possible for our children.

Sara and Emma are truly exceptional. From the moment we met them, they felt like part of the family. We trust them completely and couldn’t be happier with the care they provide. They go above and beyond by not only looking after our little one, but also actively supporting their development in meaningful ways. We especially appreciate the daily updates and photos—they give us such peace of mind and allow us to feel connected even when we’re apart. We honestly can’t speak highly enough of them.
Jamie has been nanny to my son for nearly two years now and met him when he was just about to turn 1. We had interviewed a few nanny's and none felt quite right but we instantly knew she was the right fit as soon as we met her. She's developed an amazing bond with my son over the last couple of years and she has become a vital part of his little world.
Jamie approaches her job with real passion and a positive attitude,always bringing sunshine to our home. She's always thinking up creative ways to play and help our son learn new things and he's just completely zoned in when he's with her.
She's completely respected and honored our way of parenting, she's makes him homecooked vegetarian meals, gets him out in nature for most of the day and follows our guidance to keep him safe outside the home. She's travelled to Thailand with us and adapted to working in a new environment with ease and my son felt completely happy and safe with her.
My sons needs are always met, he's fed well, safe and always happy and she's even adapted to support me on days that he's not been able to be with her entirely independently.
I cannot recommend her enough, she would be an unforgettable and valuable part of your child's care. If I was a millionaire I'd just have her move in with us because I trust her abilities to support my son that much.
