We needed a babysitter for a few hours on holiday and rainbow was perfect for our 3 month old.
Great communications right from the start and throughout the 3 hours of looking after the baby.
She was great with Tom going on a walk and feeding him.
I would definitely book her again on our next holiday

Sarah is such a caring and kind childminder (and in general). When I drop off my son he’s always got a smile for her and the little crew of bubs that he gets to hang out with. He has really bloomed since being at Sarah’s, developing skills, getting socialised and doing crafting and learning, as well as having lots of fun. We get regular updates throughout the day from Sarah on how he’s doing and photos of him having fun. It feels great to know he’s safe, well cared for, and actually thriving, especially as I was so nervous of having to go back to work. We provide our own food so can’t rate, but if he’s being fussy she has kindly given him extra in the past. Thank you Sarah xx

Katy was always punctual, dependable, and incredibly proactive—planning age-appropriate activities, engaging in creative play, and helping to reinforce our parenting values with consistency and kindness. Our child looked forward to their time together and always felt safe and happy in Katy’s care.
In addition to her natural way with children, Katy kept things tidy, communicated clearly with us, and was always respectful of our home and routines. Her presence brought a calm and reassuring energy that made a huge difference in our daily lives.
Any family would be lucky to have Katy as part of their world. We’re so grateful for everything she’s done and will always consider her part of our extended family.
We have been incredibly lucky to have Alex care for our little one over the past 3 years. From the offset, Alex created a warm, welcoming and safe environment where all her children are encouraged to explore, learn and grow at their own pace.
Alex's approach is beautifully balanced, she gives the children the freedom to roam, play and discover the world around them with natural resources, whilst still following a structured curriculum that supports their development. The dedicated space she provides away is thoughtfully set up, stimulating, and always changing to meet the children's evolving interests and needs.
What sets Alex apart is her flexibility, kindness and professionalism. She understands that every child and family are different and goes out of her way to support in a caring and responsive way I.e through potty training, sleep training etc.
The daily feedback at pick up and wonderful pics throughout the day is reassuring and always makes time for us if we needed more time to discuss our little one. We always felt involved and informed.
We can not thank Alex enough for the love and care she has shown. She has been such a positive part of our little ones early years and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a high quality Childminder.
Shabana is a very friendly and well educated tutor to my twin boys, who have been attending lessons with her for just under a year.
Her method of mixing fun and play with teaching works very well with them, she keeps the lessons enjoyable and engaging.
They achieved major milestones since attending her lessons.
A very good to tutor.
Booked with this lady to look after our young children while we got ready for our wedding & for her to look after the children while we said our vows , she met the children then let us down the last minute a week before our wedding and even after we tried to still get her to come just for the ceremony she didn’t reply to messages sent to her . Extremely upset and disappointed with her service & how unfairly treated I was by her as I had booked her months in advance & she had guaranteed me that she had booked the whole day out of her diary for me.
We are so grateful for the incredible support Aspasia provided in helping us plan a truly special birthday for our daughter. She went above and beyond by thoughtfully helping us create a personalized gift list centered around building a train collection—something our daughter absolutely loves.
Aspasia took the time to understand our daughter’s interests, researched age-appropriate options, and even suggested creative add-ons that we hadn’t considered. The result was a well-rounded and meaningful gift list that made our daughter’s birthday extra magical.
It’s rare to find someone who not only cares for your child with warmth and reliability, but who also takes the initiative to contribute to their happiness in such a thoughtful way. We truly appreciate Aspasia’s dedication and heart. Highly recommend!
Vida is superb. She always gives great feedback on our boys but often doesn’t need to as the older one speak so happily about what they’ve been up to and the younger one is full of smiles. It’s wonderful receiving all the crafts and drawings they have made and seeing them develop appropriate skills both educationally and socially.
We’ve had the absolute pleasure of having Evelyn care for our child over the past 18 months and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From day one, she created a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment where our child has truly thrived.
Evelyn is not only incredibly attentive and patient but also genuinely passionate about child development. Each day is thoughtfully planned, with a great balance of learning activities, creative play, outdoor time, and rest. We’ve seen such positive growth in our child's confidence, social skills, and curiosity thanks to Evelyn's gentle guidance and encouragement.
Communication is always clear and consistent. We’ve really appreciated the daily updates and photos, which give us peace of mind and a lovely glimpse into what our child is up to throughout the day.
It's clear that Evelyn treats every child with individual care and respect, creating a true home-from-home feeling. We feel incredibly lucky to have found someone so reliable, kind, and professional to support our family.
We wholeheartedly recommend Evelyn to any parent looking for high-quality childcare—she is a true gem!

Murdina is a fantastic childminder. She has taken care of both of my children in their pre-school years and we will be sad to say goodbye to her at the end of this month.
Murdina provides a caring, educational and fun environment for the children. The children go on lots of outings (such as Bookbug, Toddlers and the Safari Park) and when at her setting, she has lots of fun activities to keep everyone engaged and stimulated. She is brilliant at communicating with parents. As well as seeing how settled and happy my own children are with her- at pickup and drop off it is clear to see the strong bonds she has with all the children in her care.
A huge thank you to you, Murdina, for everything over the past 4 years. We will miss you!
Vida has looked after our 2 boys for just over a year and we have been so pleased with what she offers as a childminder. Our 20 month old enjoys the mixture of ages at the setting and they spend plenty of time outside every day and on outings to museums, farms and so on. The day is structured with lots of engaging activities; both boys really enjoy spending time at Vida’s house and have made lovely friendships with the other children there.
Tiba has been caring for my daughter since she was 10 months old and has provided a safe, nurturing environment for her to grow. My daughter loves her Tiba days which are always involve adventures to the park and amazingly creative activities at her home too. Her food is fantastic! 3 proper home cooked meal and healthy snacks. I know she gets her veggies and vitamins at Tiba, if only she ate this way home! Tiba’s communication is great and she is such a caring person, I know my daughter is so well cared for. I would recommend Tiba without hesitation!
We feel incredibly lucky to have found Pooja. From the very first day, she has provided a warm, welcoming, and nurturing environment that has made our child feel completely at home. It’s clear that she genuinely loves what she does, and it shows in every interaction. Our child comes home from Pooja's with a big smile, new stories, and often new skills – from songs and crafts to improved communication and confidence. She provides thoughtful updates, photos, and feedback, which gives us such peace of mind. Most importantly, we know our child is genuinely cared for and valued. Highly recommend.
We feel incredibly lucky to have found Alex, who looked after our son for 3 years from the age of 15 months. From the very beginning, her setting felt like a home-from-home – warm, nurturing, and filled with love.
Under Alex’s care, our son thrived. He learned so much – from developing confidence and strong social skills to even picking up Spanish! There was always a perfect balance of learning, creative play, and lots of time spent outdoors exploring.
We really appreciated the regular updates and especially the lovely photos she shared – it gave us such peace of mind and helped us feel connected to everything our son was experiencing during the day.
What really stood out was how genuinely cared for and secure he felt and even now, as he's coming to the end of his first year at school, he still talks fondly about his time with Alex.
We couldn’t recommend her more highly. She’s made a lasting, positive impact on our son’s early years, and we’re so grateful for the loving, engaging, and supportive environment she created.
