Lindao's 5 Star Reviews

Wonderful Childminder

We were so fortunate to be recommended Linda's childminding care by a family member who lived in the area, and more fortunate to get a place for our 6 month old! Linda made the transition so easy for all of us from being with my daughter full-time, to having her in a daycare, because it was a home away from home. She really loved her time at Linda's; it was a nurturing home environment where she had much fun, alongside lovely outings that they would also do. It was very easy to trust Linda's care from the start, and she would go out of her way to provide the best for the children, and parents. When we decided to move out of London, having to take our daughter out of Linda's care made it a much harder move! I would recommend Dandelion Daycare to anyone!

The best childcare decision you'll ever make

My daughter was lucky enough to be in the wonderful care of Linda from around 15 months. Prior to this she was in a (well rated) nursery and then as part of a nanny share. At the time I thought the childcare in those settings was decent but it was only after we found find a full time spot with Linda that I realised everything that was previously missing.

Linda is an exceptional childminder - she has a natural gift with kids and works to ensure every child is provided the best care. The setting is homely, with nutritious home cooked meals (that my daughter still talks about!). They go out daily to explore the commons or down Northcote Road for a babycino. They provided more than just care but a truly family environment where my daughter thrived.

In a city where many of us don't have family close by, Linda became part our family and we were fortunate enough to have her around to provide childcare for us. I will always be grateful for the amazing start that she provided to us and could not recommend her more.

A truly wonderful childminder

Linda began childminding my son full time when he was 9 months old and continues to offer wrap around care now that he is 4 years old. My daughter started full time with Linda at 6 months and continues to be cared for by Linda at 15 months.
She has been and is a fantastic childminder for all ages. Very caring, gentle and competent with young babies whilst also being fun, energetic and engaging for older ones. My 4 year old really looks forward to going to Linda’s after school and my 15 month old is always excited to arrive in the morning. I highly recommend Linda.
