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.
We couldn’t recommend Elle more highly. She has been an absolutely wonderful nanny to our family and we feel incredibly lucky to have had her in our children’s lives. She adores them as if they were her own, and it is so clear in the care, patience and warmth she brings every single day.
Elle knows our children inside out. She understands their personalities, their routines, what makes them laugh, what helps them feel calm, and exactly how to bring out the best in them. She is always thinking of lovely crafts, activities, outings and little ways to make their days fun, engaging and special. The children absolutely adore her and have built such a strong bond with her.
She is also an enormous support to us as a whole family, not just to the children. She is thoughtful, reliable, flexible and always willing to help, which has made such a difference to our day-to-day life. She brings such calm and reassurance into our home, and we have always felt completely confident that the children are safe, happy and beautifully cared for with her.
Elle is one of the most patient people we have ever met, even through the most dramatic toddler moments, tricky emotions, messy days (she’ll understand my reference to the Wroxham Barns toilets here) and all the less glamorous parts of childcare. She handles everything with kindness, humour and complete calm.
Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Elle. She has been a truly valued part of our family, and we would recommend her without hesitation.
From the moment we met Milly, I knew she was someone special. She is everything I was hoping to find and more. Her kindness, warmth, and genuine compassion shine through. As a parent of a child with additional needs, finding someone you can truly trust is incredibly difficult, but Milly instantly put both my son and me completely at ease.
Leaving your children with someone else is never easy, but with Milly I felt an overwhelming sense of reassurance knowing they were in capable, caring hands. She has a natural ability to connect with children and create a calm, happy environment where they feel safe and understood. I honestly can’t recommend her highly enough, and I feel so grateful to have found her.

Anne is our nanny and has been for two years. She does wrap around care with our almost 10 year old boys (one with SEN) and has the 3 year old the rest of the day. Shes has made our family life manageable with both parents working long hours , but more importantly she is so adored by our kids, young and old. The 3 year old is socialised and thriving. Anne is fabulous.

She took excellent care of my son and always made sure he was happy, safe, and well looked after. she engaged him in activities that help improved his speaking.
I could not recommend Amy enough, my daughter had such positive experiences with Amy and still misses her and talks about her now in pre-school. She provides a home from home environment which we loved, and my daughter always felt happy, comfortable and excited each day. Amy goes above and beyond to make sure the children are provided with educational and fun activities each day, which increased my daughter's confidence and development so much.
I, myself, used to go to Maria when I was younger and still have fond memories now 20+ years later. When I found out I was pregnant, I knew there was no one else I would rather my child go to and to my luck, Maria had availability.
Maria has cared for my daughter since she was 8 months old and I honestly couldn’t wish for anyone better. She strives for the best in my child and constantly encourages her development. My daughter wakes up so excited to go in the mornings and often doesn’t want to come home at pick up. Every day is different for the children as Maria always has activities and trips planned.
I would recommend Maria to anyone looking for a genuine, caring provider for their children.
Our son has been in the care of Louise + Mimi since he was 2 years old (he is now 4) from a nursery setting, to a child minding environment. We cannot speak highly enough about them and their provision.
Both are two of kindest, most committed practitioners we have met, who are so passionate about forest learning and truly love what they do and the children they look after. They go the extra mile to ensure children are supported and inspired, providing the most wonderful nature driven experiences, with an emphasis on creativity, consideration for the environment and learning through discovery and play.
Our son loves his time with Louise + Mimi and we feel so grateful to them for their efforts and energy in helping children to thrive and grow with confidence. We hope more families are able to experience their Magic!
I’ve seen firsthand the passion, care, and dedication that Emily brings to working with children. She creates a warm, nurturing environment where children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to thrive. I have no doubt her setting will provide an exceptional start for every child in her care. I can’t wait for mine to start!
From day one our children have felt comfortable, nurtured and safe. They absolutely adore Amy and look forward to going there everyday. We also cannot be happier with the service Amy provides. Communication and care are both top notch. We could not recommend Amy highly enough.
I honestly can't recommend Amy enough! 💕
She was absolutely amazing with my twins, and I couldn't have wished for a better childminder. It was the first time leaving my girls with someone else and Amy made it very easy. I never once worried while they were in her care. They were always doing different activities and have a great time. I also saw her in action at a local playgroup she attended with the children she looked after and she was always so attentive and prepared for anything. Amy was one of the reasons I didn’t want to move house as it meant I would have to find other childcare. Couldn’t recommend her enough ❤️
She was absolutely great with my 10 month old. Shes still quite little and is very attached to me but Harley did a great job with distracting her. She helped with chores around the house, played with her and took her for walks.
It’s very clear that she has a lot of experience with children.
I’m very happy that we chose to go with her and I’ll definitely be booking her again!
Thank you Harley!
Mila and Tanya looked after my little girl from October 2025 - August 2026 and i have to say i have been absolutley thrilled. She has settled in soo well and is always happy on drop offs. She especially likes all the outings and the paddling pool. I felt at ease leaving my little one and absolutley love the daily feedback with pictures. If you want a home from home with people that give your children the love, care and boundaries that you would at home then Mila is perfect choice. It is a shame we are leaving but due to relocation we have to. Oh and the food is amazing! Freshly prepared and with a brilliant variety. My little girl even talks about them at weekends.
We honestly couldn't have asked for a better childminder than Jo.
Catalina was with Jo for around a year, attending three days a week from the age of two. We visited two other childminders before meeting Jo, but from our very first phone conversation I felt an instant connection. When we went for our visit, Catalina walked straight in and made herself completely at home. She was normally quite shy in new environments, but with Jo she treated it as though it was her own house. That immediately gave me so much confidence that we'd found the right place.
From day one, Jo treated Catalina like one of her own family. She genuinely cares about every child she looks after, and it shows in everything she does. One of the biggest changes we saw while Catalina was with Jo was how much she developed. Her confidence, speech and love of learning came on in leaps and bounds during that year. Jo did so many fun educational activities with the children, including early phonics and learning through play, and you could really see how passionate she is about helping children reach their full potential. Catalina absolutely loved learning with Jo, and we truly believe Jo played a huge part in preparing her for nursery and giving her such a positive start.
Jo constantly went above and beyond, taking the children on wonderful outings, creating exciting experiences and making every day fun. Whether it was trips to the farm, thoughtful little gifts or celebrating birthdays and Christmas, she always put so much love and care into everything she did.
The effort she made for special occasions was incredible too. Mother's Day and Father's Day were always so thoughtful. I still treasure the beautiful keepsakes she helped Catalina make, including a handprint photo frame, along with flowers, chocolates and a card. They're memories we'll keep forever.
The only reason Catalina eventually left was because the older children she had formed close friendships with moved on to nursery and school, and we felt she needed to be in a larger group of children her own age for the next stage of her development. It had absolutely nothing to do with Jo or the quality of care she provided.
Even now, more than six months later, Catalina still regularly talks about Jo, and we still keep in touch. We often see each other because Jo's son attends the same school, and it's lovely that she's remained such a special part of our lives.
Jo isn't just an amazing childminder—she is one of the kindest, most caring and passionate people you could hope to leave your child with. Knowing Catalina was with her gave me complete peace of mind every single day. She treated her as if she were one of her own, and as a parent, there is nothing more reassuring than that.
If you're looking for a childminder who provides a true home-from-home environment, genuinely loves every child she cares for, goes above and beyond every single day, and helps children flourish in every aspect of their development, then I cannot recommend Jo highly enough. Choosing Jo was one of the best decisions we ever made, and we'll always be grateful for the love, care and memories she gave our family.

Our 3 year old has been under the care of Louise and Mimi for nearly a year now and I couldn’t wish for anything more. They are passionate, calm and the children adore them. The forest school ethos provides such a brilliant experience for young children and our son has thrived. He has grown in confidence, made brilliant friends, and can now teach me things I didn’t know about nature! Before he started there I was a bit nervous about the British weather and so much outdoor learning but Louise and Mimi manage this so brilliantly to maximise fresh air and adventures through the woods and the common. The children love it. And if the weather is very bad they have a lovely play room to seek shelter. It is truly a magical experience for a child growing up in London and I feel so lucky we found it. I’m excited for my youngest to start there too!
Karla was so lovely with our little one. He was around 3.5 months old and she handled him with ease. He loved her energy and she was also great at soothing him during naptime. I would definitely recommend her to any of my friends and hope to use her services again too! Wonderful!
Trish has looked after my 16 year old for the last 2.5 years. She is very child centred, and always focussed on the best interests of the child in her care. She is professional, reliable and kind. I really appreciate her open communication - on the rare occasions when there has been an issue she has let me know and we’ve worked out a solution together. My daughter, who has severe anxiety, loves spending time with her and completely trusts her. I know they will stay in touch when my daughter moves on to new things at the end of the summer. Thanks Trish, it’s been a pleasure and I’m grateful we found you.

Sophie is absolutely wonderful, kind, reliable, and genuinely caring. From the moment I met her, I felt completely at ease, and our children feel happy and secure in her care. She creates a warm, fun environment with plenty of activities and learning opportunities. Communication is excellent, and we’re always kept updated. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and couldn’t recommend her more highly.
George has looked after my son for the past two years, since he was nine years old (after school) and I can’t recommend him highly enough. He’s reliable, trustworthy and completely dependable. In all that time, he never once cancelled at the last minute or called in sick.
Whether it’s taking my son to football training, going to the park or finding fun things to do together, George is always proactive and keeps him active and engaged. They’ve built such a lovely bond, and my son genuinely looks forward to spending time with him.
George has been a wonderful role model, and we feel incredibly lucky to have had him in our lives. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to any family.
