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.
My son attended Steph's from 13 months until he was 2yrs10 months and he really thrived under her care. She was very warm & welcoming to him and from my interactions with her on drop off & collection, I could really tell she knew my son's personality & interests by what she said.
Steph would keep us updated with photos and messages about how our son was getting on there. She also informed us about the books they were reading, what activities they were doing & any learning they were doing.
Steph was also up to date in training and clearly had a passion for her work.
In terms of free hours etc, Steph was very adept at managing this and I never had issues with invoices, and providing the information to her was seamless.
Steph also offered babysitting services & overnight stays, which we used once and were both incredibly grateful for as an additional service, and happy with how it went.
I found Steph to be a great bridge between returning to work parents & nursery/pre-school. A lovely warm family feel to help with the transition.
My daughter has been with Kate since she was 10 months old, and has been at the hut for the last 9 months and is thriving. My daughter’s language is really advanced for her age and I think a huge part of that is because of Kate and her amazing team. Going back to work after as a first time mum was so daunting but meeting Kate and the team and seeing how happy my daughter was is so special. My daughter loves going, Kate and her team are so thorough with the plan of activities and monthly topics for the children to enjoy and learn. I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough, we even moved slightly further out from Bromley but I wouldn’t send my daughter or any further children anywhere else!
Thank you all for everything you do xxx
Since first meeting Megan in early 2024, she has become an invaluable part of how we get from one week to the next. With super easy communication from the very beginning, she is a wonderfully calm and supportive presence in our family ecosystem. She is brilliant with our son. She is so switched on to what makes him tick, picking up cues and anticipating his needs. He absolutely loves her and is always excited to see her. I was initially a bit nervous about leaving our son with somebody who wasn't family. Megan was so patient and understanding, working with us to find what would work best. Not only is she great with our son, she has been brilliant at helping me transition back to work as well as getting our son settled in nursery. Knowing that my son is safe and cared for by an experienced, creative, reliable and engaging childcare specialist means the world.

It has been an absolute privilege to have Jacqui care for my child since July 2025. From the very beginning, she formed a natural and trusting bond, and it was immediately clear that she has a rare combination of warmth, professionalism, and genuine passion for childcare.
She has consistently gone above and beyond in every aspect of her role. On a daily basis, she supported age-appropriate play, developmental activities, meal preparation, laundry, toy organisation, and general household routines related to childcare — always with exceptional attention to detail and care. She has a wonderful ability to engage with children in a way that supports milestones, encourages curiosity, and builds confidence through play.
What truly sets her apart is her dedication and heart. She regularly brought new toys and learning resources, thoughtfully chosen to support development. She didn’t just “watch” — she actively invested in growth, happiness, and emotional wellbeing.
On a personal level, she has also been an incredible support to me as a new parent. During some of the most challenging early parenting moments, she showed kindness, patience, and emotional support that went far beyond her job description. She even sat with me at A&E when my child needed medical attention — something I will always be deeply grateful for. In many ways, she has felt like family rather than simply an employee.
We are only parting ways due to relocation, not because of any shortcoming on her part. I cannot recommend her highly enough to any family looking for a caring, reliable, trustworthy, and deeply compassionate nanny. Any child and parent would be extremely lucky to have her.
Fatima shows amazing care and love for my children! An amazing woman who strengthens their knowledge, passions and growth. A supportive and reliable person. My children are safe, loved and happy. I don’t k ow what I would do without her.
Our son has been with Tahira for nearly a year now and we have been so pleased with the care she provides. She gives us regular updates on him, let's us know when he has settled, takes lots of pictures. She has raised any concerns about his development with us and always offers lots of care and encouragement when he has been hesistant coming in. Tahira is a lovely person and her family are so welcoming to the children. We are so grateful to have found Chatfield Childcare and would recommend to everyone.
My little boy started Sharon’s when he was under 1, he absolutely loves it there and he is now 3! He has made little friends and has lots of different things he can do whilst there. Despite him telling me he plays with a big tree everyday.. (which there isn’t 🤣) I know he has lots of things to do and he has healthy food he gets given! Sharon is very caring towards our little boy and even his sister who doesn’t go there.
I have tried different childminders with my oldest but Sharon is my favourite by far!
My boy loves it there! Would recommend!
After 4 and a half months of being severely sleep deprived with out 5 month old baby we decided we needed help to at least getting longer stretches at night. Because our little one was waking up every 2-3 hours and it had become exhausting. Thats when I found Liz, read her reviews and decided to book with her.
Let me tell you that she was amazing. Very caring and nice and made me feel totally comfortable leaving my baby with her for the night.
The first 2-3 nights were the “worst” while he was adapting to the new changes and now a week after he went from waking up every 2-3 hours to sleeping from 7-7 which is amazing!
Sometimes you need a bit of help to understand what your baby is needing and more when you are a first time mum. Liz is very knowledgeable and I would absolutely recommend her to anybody that is struggling with their baby’s sleep.

I was looking for childcare for my 2-year-old son and met Anu, and honestly I’m so glad I did. From the first chat she was so warm, friendly, and reassuring — it instantly made me feel at ease.
She invited me over to see her place with my son and it was such a lovely, calm, homely setting. My little one felt comfortable really quickly, which says a lot. Anu was so gentle, patient, and caring with him, and you can genuinely see how much love she has for the children she looks after.
Her son is absolutely lovely too — so friendly and sweet — and it really shows what a nurturing environment she’s created. I left feeling really happy and confident, and without a doubt I’ll be sending my son to her childcare.
Would definitely recommend her to any parent looking for a warm, caring childminder.
Our daughter has been going to Terri’s since she was a baby. Terri provides exceptional care for children. Our daughter has learned an incredible amount of things from coming here, from counting, spelling to toilet training and hand washing. We are so proud of how she has grown up and how much she’s learnt and it’s all down to Terri. Taking them to playgroup is also great, our daughter has learned how to paint, draw and play nicely and she’s so kind due to going here and going to Terri’s! Thank you Terri - You’re the best 🩷
Rahima is a kind, dedicated and caring nanny for our baby. She was very patient and understanding to our baby’s needs and supported us in various tasks like playing with baby according to his developmental needs, bathing , feeding, etc. she always managed to make baby smile a big big smile ! She is also a good communicator with us , I always felt like she advocated for our baby to have a good relationship with my parents which (yes it is what we want) and she did well. Thank you so much Rahima !
From the moment I dropped my son off at just six months old, I have felt completely at ease with Wendy and Alice. They have truly grown alongside my son and supported him in flourishing in all the best ways. Through their care, he has developed lovely manners, strong friendships, and deep bonds with Wendy’s family that feel very much like his own. In fact, just the other day he referred to them as his “second family,” which says everything.
Now at 3½ and ready for reception, my son has gained so much from his time with Wendy and Alice. He can write his name, has developed early maths skills, and has excellent social skills from playing with children of different ages, especially the little ones.
If you’re looking for childcare that is small, nurturing, full of love, and truly feels like a family setting, this is it. I will be forever grateful to Wendy and Alice for the role they played in helping me raise my son during the first three years of his life.

Shiela truly came to my rescue just two weeks after my baby was born, after a previous maternity nurse didn’t meet expectations. She supported us with night shifts over several weeks and continues to help our family now that my baby is 11 weeks old. She is incredibly gentle and a natural with babies — calm, confident, and reassuring. She shares her opinion based on experience without ever being pushy, and always leaves space for a mum to be a mum. I’ve found her completely trustworthy and always felt my baby was safe, happy, and well cared for with her. She’s also pleasant to be around, very polite, and honestly a bit of a wizard — she can calm him quickly
My daughter Sabby started with Sam just after turning 1, around September 2024. My family had just moved to Milton Keynes that time and I was about to start a new job. So we looked at a few nurseries around the area, after seeing the setup we were not completely at ease with the idea of leaving our daughter in a big setting since she was so young. We were really looking for a place where we know our daughter will be safe and well cared for. Then we found Sam online, we spoke to her and visited her home, Sabby also did settling in sessions first. We felt like this was the perfect setup for our little one , we love the homey feel and the cleanliness of Sam's home. She was also very warm and helped Sabby adjust well.
Sam also is very easy to talk to and flexible when it comes to times and schedules. We really felt like she wanted to help us and other parents find a balance between our schedules. My husband and I have asked Sam a few times to make adjustments and she tries her best to accomodate requests. We were happy and blessed to have found her it means a lot for us to have a safe place for Sabby where she is also loved and well cared for.
Found Lucy through this website and was nervous at the beginning as I’d never left my toddler with anyone else other than a family and close friends. Lucy’s demeanour is kind and gentle and I didn’t expect my little one to take to her as much and as fast as he did. He even cried the first time when she left ❤️.
Very helpful and dependable. Followed our requests exactly.

Lizzie has been working with my kids (2 and 4 year old boys ) and they are pack with energy. She has been able to warm up to them very quickly ,learn their routine and helped them get through it, managed to contain them and be ultra creative with them. Has been keeping them busy and keeping sessions educational.
Grateful for all the help !
