We were recommended Kideos Childcare, and we love Linzi & Michelle! They are so friendly, professional and accommodating! We came to Kideos after a bad experience with another childminder, and my little boy settled in immediately and felt at home. Linzi is helpful and very knowledgeable and both her, and Michelle, are a wonderful influence on the children! Highly recommend!

My little girl has been attending Kideos since she was 10 months old and I truly could not wish for better people to care for my daughter. I say people as they are much more than just childminders, Linzi & Michelle do love the children they look after, as though they were their own. My daughter has been thriving for the past just over 12 months of being there and a lot of this is down to the love, attention and patience they give. From the minute I stepped foot in their homely setting, when pregnant, I had an instant warm feeling, and I know from how happy my daughter is here, that she feels the same. The activities, train rides out, libraries, lunches out, play centres and the small but special things like a Costa or supermarket trip, I know her days here are made the most of.
I couldn’t recommend enough and feel lucky that my little girl is a part of this little family, she has made so many friends in all of you, and we are so grateful!

I have known Linzi and Michelle for just short of 4 years now as both of my boys have been in their care and I honestly couldn’t fault anything.
The way my son’s have excelled in her care has been amazing and they always enjoy their time with her. From trips to the local museums and farms to even on a more personal level going to local cafe/costa for a baby hot chocolate! She is truly fantastic.
I would never let me babies go anywhere else :) it is like home from home and that’s what I love. Forever grateful.

You will not find a more loving, caring and nurturing environment for your child. The setting is exceptional. You can be confident your child is in the best hands. My son has developed so much in their care. They do so much with the children from trips to the library and museums to arts and crafts to guided fun, educational activites . They always go above and beyond for all the children in their care and parents alike. As a first time mum their advice and support has remained a lifeline and I will forever be grateful for them. If you want a care setting that places importance on every aspect of care including good food, learning, fun, experiences, love, kindness and everything in-between you genuinely will not find better

Thank you for this Pippa! We love looking after your little ⭐️ she’s such a joy to be around. Xx
My daughter has been coming to Kideos for 2 years now, since she was 1. She has learnt so much from these three ladies. Although they are childminders, Linzi has turned the bottom of her house into a nursery and it is amazing. It is always spotless, they are always doing activities and going out on adventures and always having fun. They are so caring and genuinely love the kids they look after. I wouldn't recommend anyone else to look after children other than Kideos.
My older children have also been to Kideos and they loved it. Kideo's have offered so much support and help with my son who has SEN.
They are not just there for the children but also the parents too. I am forever grateful that these ladies look after my child and they will always be my friends even after my daughter goes to school.

My little boy started here in September 2019 at 10 months old. The transition process was fantastic and, as, my son was a bit distressed by the whole idea of being left by mummy at first, we were offered extra 'getting to know you' sessions at no extra cost. He now loves Kideos and all the team there. It is not like other childminders I've heard about. The setting is packed with resources and they spend lots of time making and exploring. Linzi, who leads the team, is caring, professional, flexible, and, most importantly, loves kids and is brilliant with them. Little touches like a craft activity and a chocolate bunny left on our doorstep during the Covid 19 lock down sum up the kind and thoughtful nature of Kideos. We feel extremely lucky that we picked this place and can't recommend Kideos highly enough.

Came across Kideos as my mum needed an operation and I wouldnt have childcare for 8 weeks. Kideos is fantastic, my daughter was 20 months old when she started and has come on leaps and bounds with being with Lyndsey and her team. Her speech, attitude and confidence grew when she started. She loves going and still goes now before school and in the school holidays. The service is fantastic, friendly, caring and yet professional in all aspects. Like I say couldn't ask for anyone better to look after my daughter she loves going

I was really anxious about leaving my son having had a bad experience with childcare previously.
Lyndsey was amazing right from the start and my son loves going.
Fantastic provision, nothing is too much trouble, Lyndsey is so approachable for anything and gives lots of advice, support and reassurance. Full updates on how my son has been during the day so I know how settled he's been and he's coming on leaps and bounds since starting with Lyndsey.
Cannot praise or speak highly enough of the provision and what Lyndsey offers.

That is a lovely thing to say... Kideos are happy that we could assist you and your family once again. Thank you for your custom Lyndsey.
Recommended 100%.......... Been with Kideos for months and have to say how professional Lyndsey and her staff are not to mention the setup... Very approachable especially Lyndsey who is always very jolly and full of beans. My child has come on leaps and bounds. I can understand why she has a waiting list...

Thanks for your custom! It was a pleasure to be of service and to know you and your family was happy with it.
Enquired and viewed some childminders around BD10 & BD2 and have to say kideos was a definate for me as I did hear some great comments about the place. I did however look at others before making a decision and kideos came up trumps with all it has to offer. Recommended...

Thanks for the review! It means loads to us for your honest opinions... Hope to see you at Kideos again sometime.
Been to visit Kideo's today as a potential place for my child. I have been to a number of settings of various kinds and I have to say how unique Kideo's is for a childminders! (a mini nursery set up id say)
The playrooms are solely for the children and there is even a messy room, I wanted to stay lol. A very friendly place and dedicated to allow children to have as much fun as possible. I am now set on where my little one will be going and know with the wealth of knowledge and child related qualifications the staff hold is great. The children were also very welcoming and played straight away with my little one.
Lovely place x
