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 child attends Sarah’s setting and she is fantastic!
Shes friendly, reliable and went through everything with me.
Her communication about my child’s day to day is above and beyond. I receive photos throughout the day with little snippets of what they are doing.
We had settling in’s and Sarah went at my child’s pace. Again she was really prompt with letting me know how they were getting on and what they were doing along with photos.
I really like that she is out and about with the children and my little one comes home very happy and telling me all about how lovely their day has been.
Thank you Sarah
My daughter, who recently turned three, has been attending Ally’s nursery for the past year following a bad experience at a previous nursery. Since joining Ally’s, we have seen a significant positive difference in her happiness and confidence.
Ally and her assistant Louise are incredibly kind, caring and attentive, creating a warm and nurturing environment where the children feel safe and valued. They provide healthy, nutritious dinners, organise regular outings and trips, and keep parents well informed with regular feedback about the children’s progress and day-to-day experiences.
We have been extremely happy with the care and support our daughter has received, and we would highly recommend Ally’s nursery to other parents.
We know Gosia since My girl was 2. She is the most caring and loving Childminder I ever met. She will treat your child like her own, and she will gain your trust within minutes! Children adore her and she will always comfort them without a struggle. I still remember dragging my daughter out from Gosia's house as she didn't want to leave. Gosia Has a big heart and she is fully dedicated to her work.

My son was around 2.5 years old when He went to GranMa. He had a fantastic time and still remember vividly how it was until now He is 6 years old. GranMa was really flexible, understanding and caring. My Son learnt a lot academically but as well socially. He made a couple of friends and had a day routine similar to what we had at home. When my son started Reception, He asked me to visit GranMa to show her his uniform and how big He was now. He was so proud of himself but missed GranMa.
Thanks for everything and I recommend 100 % your settings.
I cannot recommend Tanya enough. She is kind, caring, bubbly, and always keeps my children happy, active, and engaged, making them feel safe, happy, and valued. She has a natural ability to connect with children, and it's clear how much she genuinely cares about their wellbeing and development.
She has been incredibly supportive to both my children and our family, and they absolutely love spending time with her.
Her kindness, professionalism, enthusiasm, and dedication shine through in everything she does.☺️
Tanya is one of the best childminders we've ever had, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional childcare.❤️

Charlotte has looked after my son since he was 10 months old and he settled in immediately. She creates such a happy, fun environment and sends so many updates and photos through the day so I know he's genuinely enjoying himself. She always takes the children out and about and provides different activities to keep them engaged. She's been amazing!
Daniel has been with her for the past three years, and we honestly couldn’t have wished for anyone better. He absolutely loved going to her and always felt happy, safe and well cared for.
Over the three years, she has been so kind, caring and supportive, and it has been lovely to see how much Daniel has grown and developed in her care. She has always gone above and beyond to make sure he was happy and having fun.
We are incredibly grateful for everything she has done for Daniel and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a wonderful, trustworthy and caring childminder. She will be very missed!
Yasmin has been with us for 8 months looking after my baby and during the summer also looking after my four year old. She is much loved by them both and is great at getting out of the house and exploring with the kids. I know they are both very happy with her and learning lots and having fun. I recommend her wholeheartedly.
We have been using Fiona as our childminder for many years, and she has looked after both of our children, who are now 2.5 and 5 years old. We are very happy with the care she provides.
Our children love going to Fiona’s house and always come home happy. Fiona provides a warm, welcoming and caring environment, with lots of personal attention and a focus on each child’s development, happiness and wellbeing.
She has a very positive child focused approach.
The days are filled with activities and outings - from playing in the garden and arts and crafts to outdoor trips, swimming pools, soft play and visits to parks and farms.
We trust Fiona and know that our children are safe, cared for and happy when they are with her. We would highly recommend Fiona to parents looking for a childminder.

We honestly cannot recommend Nanny Loulou highly enough. She has been absolutely amazing with our daughter, and the development she has helped her achieve, has been second to none. From the very beginning, she took our daughter under her wing and cared for her as if she were one of her own. She has truly become part of our family.
Nanny Loulou has always gone above and beyond for us, with our daughter’s happiness, development and wellbeing always coming first. She has given her so many amazing experiences and taken her to places and on days out that we simply wouldn’t have been able to give her in the same way.
What we have loved most is that she hasn’t just provided childcare — she has given our daughter the opportunity to experience the real world, build confidence, become independent and learn through everyday experiences. She has also had regular socialisation with other children who attend different childminders, in a preschool-style setting two days a week. This has been fantastic for her confidence, friendships and social development and has given her the best of both worlds.
For us, the care and experiences she has received have been better than we could ever have hoped for from a traditional preschool or nursery. Nanny Loulou has put so much time, love and effort into helping our daughter grow, learn and thrive, and we will be forever grateful to her for that.
Although our daughter is now moving on to preschool, choosing Nanny Loulou was genuinely the best thing we ever did for her. We know she is going into preschool happy, confident, sociable and ready for her next adventure — and we have Nanny Loulou to thank for so much of that.
Thank you for everything you have done for our daughter and for our family. You really are one in a million, and we will miss you more than words can say! ❤️
Sam has looked after a four children a few times now, and they love her! She’s engaging without being loud, pays attention to the individual kids, and is just a nice person to have around. Not fazed by our troop of 5-13yr olds either. She’s also been reliable and communicates well.
My son has been attending Marie since 2023 and since day one he has seen it as a home from home. Marie offers a nourishing and loving environment that the children thrive in. She always takes a child led approach and is very approachable about any issues. The children are always encouraged to go outside and explore, which my son really enjoys. 100% recommend Marie for any age of children!
Gina has looked after my daughter since she was 10 months old and she is now 3. She has been such a brilliant childminder, I would thoroughly recommend her. She provides a home from home and always plans fun and messy activities the kids love. Her garden is such a lovely outside space for them in the summer, and she regularly attends a toddler group every week. The kids love her and we have always felt happy knowing our daughter is being cared for by Gina. I’ve only given 1 star for food because parents provide packed lunch.

Gosia is a warm, caring and highly professional childminder who genuinely cares about the children in her care. She provides a safe, welcoming and loving environment where children feel happy and at home.
My son enjoyed lots of fun and developmental activities that helped him learn, grow and build confidence. The setting is beautiful, clean and exceptionally well prepared.
Looking back, I would choose Gosia again without hesitation. She gave me complete peace of mind knowing my son was truly cared for.
I wholeheartedly recommend Gosia to any parent looking for wonderful childcare where their child will feel safe, happy and at home. ❤️
Katie was honestly the best thing that could have happened to our family. From the very beginning, she made us feel completely comfortable and gave us the greatest gift a parent can have — peace of mind knowing that our child was safe, happy, loved and genuinely cared for.
Katie is an absolutely wonderful childminder, but more importantly, she became someone our family could truly trust and rely on. Her kindness, patience, warmth and dedication are exceptional. Our child absolutely adored spending time with her, and it was clear every single day how much love and care Katie put into everything she did.
Leaving our child with Katie was never stressful — we always knew they were in the best possible hands. She went above and beyond, and we will always be incredibly grateful for everything she has done for our family.
Finding Katie was one of the best things that ever happened to us. We honestly could not have wished for a better childminder. ❤️
We recommend Katie wholeheartedly and without hesitation. Any family lucky enough to have her as their childminder is truly blessed.
Gabriela offers the sort of childcare that makes a parent feel relaxed and a child feel happy and secure. I genuinely cannot fault the way she looked after my 3 year old. He usually finds separation quite challenging, yet he would walk into Gabriela’s warm and welcoming home with a smile and happily wave goodbye to me.. which, as his mum, said a lot. She sets healthy and appropriate boundaries while engaging with children in such a positive and caring way. She makes a real effort to understand each child, what they enjoy and how they like to play and offers a lovely range of toys and activities around their interests.
One thing I particularly admire about Gabriela is the balance she creates between caring for her own child and the children in her care. She manages the different needs and boundaries within her home really naturally, while also helping the children understand and navigate those boundaries themselves.
She kept me updated throughout the day, which I found incredibly reassuring, particularly as my son can find new environments and transitions difficult. She was also very supportive while we were going through potty training. I had told her that she could use pull-ups if things became difficult, but she chose to continue supporting him without them because she felt that was in his best interest and would help maintain the progress he had already made. I really appreciated that she was willing to put in the additional effort rather than simply choosing the easier option.
Most importantly, I always felt that my son was safe, understood and genuinely cared for with Gabriela. Seeing how comfortable and happy he was going into her home gave me enormous peace of mind, and I would happily recommend her to other parents.
I highly recommend Monika as a childminder. As a childminder myself, I know what good childcare should look like, so choosing someone to care for my own son was very important to me.
I’ve been very happy with Monika’s care. She is caring, professional and provides lots of lovely activities for the children. Most importantly, my son was always happy in her care.
Both as a mum and a childcare professional, I would happily recommend Monika to other parents. ❤️
My little boy had attended since he was 14 months old, from the get go Jo and Ryan went above and beyond for my little one and I honestly can’t thank them enough for giving him the best first start.
I am absolutely gutted that he has to move upto school as I’d keep him there forever if I could!
Jo and Ryan welcome the children into their home and treat the children as if they are their own! Viewing the setting before he started honestly made me fall in love with the setting even more so - they have everything children of all ages could ever want to play with.
I’d have no hesitations about sending my child and if I had another baby they would go to Jo and Ryan without a doubt.
My little girl been with Dawn since 2024. Dawn is amazing, she is very caring, knowledgeable. From the 1st day we met her we knew she is the one. Her house is amazing and perfectly set up for children. The garden is amazing.
Dawn always keeps us posted about their days and what they doing, learning.
Overall she is amazing and the children all love her !

I was so apprehensive about finding a childminder for the first time until Paulina popped up and put all my worries at ease. I took my son over and she made him feel so comfortable that he slotted right in like one of the family. Her space is super cute with toys and garden space galore, he always begs to stay longer when I collect him. She’s been an absolute god send for our family.
