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.
Sara is just absolutely great with kids. She can achieve things with my daughter that nobody can (completely potty trained her in 3 days) . Loads of outdoor (garden) activities, kids love.
I can only highly recommend Sara, the kids are always having a great time with her.
Thank you for all your effort Sara. 😍

Charlotte is a fantastic childminder with a caring, calm and encouraging manner. She has looked after our daughter Freya for almost two years. Freya has thrived in Charlotte’s care, she enjoys her days and comes home excited to tell us about it.
Charlotte is extremely conscientious and organised which is reflected in all aspects of her business. Each day is well-planned with time for play, activities, rest and often outings to a play-group or park. She prepares home-cooked meals with lots of variety, which has really helped my daughter to try new things. Charlotte’s communication is great, she provides regular updates through the day and thinks ahead to challenges that might arise. As a first-time mum I’ve really appreciated her support with tackling things like sleep changes, picky eating and potty training, she always has ideas to try and is keen to be consistent with our routine at home.
Charlotte has created a very nurturing and positive environment. She has built a lovely bond with Freya and I really believe that this has helped Freya become such a happy and confident child. We feel very grateful to have found her and would highly recommend her to others.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our son has received at Little Wellies Childcare. Sharon and Tom have looked after him for over a year, and they have been absolutely amazing from day one.
They are such kind, caring, and welcoming people who genuinely treat the children like part of their family. Every week they thoughtfully plan fun and educational activities, so the children are always learning while having a wonderful time. We love receiving daily and weekly photo updates, which give us insight into everything our son has been doing.
The food they provide is always delicious, and it’s clear how much effort and care goes into every aspect of the childcare they offer.
Most importantly, our son absolutely loves going there. He is always happy, excited, and comfortable in their care, which means everything to us as parents.
We feel incredibly lucky to have found Sharon and Tom, and we truly cannot recommend Little Wellies Childcare highly enough to anyone looking for a warm, safe, loving, and engaging environment for their child.

Sue looked after 4 children for us during a wedding. They are 1, 2, 3 and 4 so no mean feat, but she was utterly in control the whole time.
They had a fantastic time, even asking before bed if Sue was coming back tomorrow!
I would not hesitate to recommend her to others.
We’ve had a fantastic experience with our childminder and feel very lucky to have found her. From the start she has been caring, reliable, and extremely supportive.
Our son found the transition difficult after our move to Spalding and changing childminders, but she was incredibly patient and understanding. She supported him at his own pace until he felt settled and secure, which made a huge difference to him and to us as parents.
He has come on so much since being with her, especially in his confidence and independence. She provides a lovely mix of activities and clearly puts a lot of thought into making sure the children are happy, engaged, and learning.
Communication is always excellent, and we are kept well informed about his day. Most importantly, we always feel confident that he is safe, happy, and well cared for.
We would highly recommend her to any family looking for a kind, professional, and genuinely caring childminder.

My child has attended for only 3 months. During term time as well and started when they were 7 months old.
Dee welcomed my child into her home. My child settled in so quickly and rarely cries at drop off. My child smiles every time we attend, and squeals when we go through the gates.
This speaks volumes about how excellent of a setting this is. The observations you receive from tapestry are in depth and accurate for your child's development.
In such a short time I can clearly see as a mum how much Dee cares and would love both my children to attend until they go to school.
Absolutely wonderful setting.
As a first-time mum, I was so nervous about putting my son into childcare, but from our very first meeting with Nikki, she instantly put us at ease. She was so warm, welcoming, and genuine, and our son warmed to her straight away. She made us feel truly heard and honestly felt like someone we had known for years.
Nikki’s years of experience in childcare really shine through, alongside the fact that she is such an amazing mum herself. She has built such a wonderful setting with an experienced and caring team of assistants, all of whom are fantastic with the children.
My son settled in so well and absolutely thrived in Nikki’s care. It genuinely felt like we were leaving him with family every day. Nikki is incredibly patient, kind, and caring, and there was never a day where she didn’t greet us with a smile. It was so clear to see how much all the children adored her.
Our little one built such lovely bonds not only with the other children in her care. Even now, over two months since we left, he still talks about Nikki and his friends from her setting.
We were genuinely so sad to leave Nikki’s setting when we moved abroad, and she has honestly set such a high benchmark for us when it comes to childcare.
Thank you so much, Nikki, for everything. We will always be so grateful for the love and care you gave our little boy.
My son was cared for by Donna for 4 years. He loved his days with her and the adventures they had on day trips.
Donna is a lovely kind and caring person, who will treat your child like her own.
Donna became an extension of the family whilst my son was with her, we never had to worry dropping him off as he was so excited to go.
Donna arranges fantastic activities and helped my son grow so much in confidence whilst he was with her.
If you are considering getting in contact with Donna I would say do not hesitate, it will be the best thing you could ever do!
My son was with Kim for 4 years. He absolutely adored both of them, and especially loved Kimmy!
Kim cared for him as if he was her own and every day he was excited to go, he loved the days out and making friends. We never had to worry dropping him off as going to Kim's was literally a home from home for him, the care was second to none and he grew so much in confidence whilst he was there
He went from a shy little boy to the bubble out going boy he is now, we were devastated when he had to start school!
If you're thinking of making contact with Kim to arrange childcare for your child, I would say don't hesitate as your child will be so well looked after and will have so many amazing adventures!
Andi established the most wonderful rapport with my two children (6 and 4) from the word go. She exudes confidence and understanding whilst setting very clear boundaries. The children had a huge amount of fun with her, and at the same time there was a marked improvement to their manners and domestic habits (folding clothes etc). We would not hesitate to use her again or to recommend her, she is absolutely wonderful.
Our twins started with Rahma at 10 months old and have been attending for nearly a year. It's been a wonderful experience for them (and for us!) Rahma and her helpers are really warm and caring and it's clear to see they genuinely care about all the children and take a real interest in each one. One of our twins was more hesitant at the start, and Rahma was very reassuring to us whilst she settled. They have developed so much since starting with Rahma and get to do lots of fun activities there. The twins often chat about Rahma at home and now can't wait to get into the buggy in the mornings to get dropped off. Rahma is a clear communicator and responds quickly to any queries.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Rahma to anyone looking for childcare. I am very happy to know that our twins have more years ahead of them with Rahma and her team.
Donna looked after our son from 11 months to 3 years of age. We cannot fault the care provided. A kind, nurturing environment with age appropriate development encouraged. Regular and varied days out were provided; walks in the forest, picnics at Witley Court, the Safari park and many more. We were always kept well informed and updated. Genuine, lovely people.
Kim looked after our little one from 11 months to 3 years old. We couldn’t fault the care provided; a great balance of kindness and nurturing with age appropriate development. The children had regular outings to from walks in the forest, splash park in the summer, the safari park and picnics at Witley Court. We were always kept well informed and updated. Genuine, lovely people.
For the past couple of years my grandson has been coming to Amanda and I couldnt recommend her enough! She gives daily communication with updates and milestones . She is incredibly warm and truly invests in each childs growth and she always ensures the child settles at their own pace.
He regularly talks about his day and what he has learnt and is always excited to be dropped off!
We feel incredibly lucky to have found Rahma to look after our daughter, who is nearly 3 and started with Rahma just before she was a year old. Rahma and her assistants work so hard to make the day-to-day experience exciting and fulfilling for the children, and our daughter loves every day, especially playing in the beautiful garden and singing and dancing with the friends she has made there. The only time we ever have tears is when she doesn't want to come home! We were anxious first-time parents of a premature baby and Rahma did so much to make us feel at ease and welcome our daughter; they seem genuinely pleased to each other every single day. Rahma is also really flexible and accomodating whenever we need an extra day of childcare. We really look forward to hearing what she has been up to each day, and it has been incredible to watch her develop and learn things from Rahma and everyone else at the setting. Our daughter has a really special relationship with Rahma, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for excellent childcare.
Kim looked after both of my children from a very young age, and they absolutely loved being with her. She created such a caring, safe, and happy environment for them, and they were always excited to go each day. She took them on lots of outings and activities, which they really enjoyed and learned so much from. It gave me great peace of mind knowing they were so well cared for and having such positive experiences. I couldn’t have asked for a better childminder and would highly recommend her to any family.
My daughter has only been with Kim for a few months but she settled in immediately due to the safe, warm and nurturing environment Kim has created. As a first time mum it’s so nerve wracking leaving your child with someone new but Kim always sends updates and photos to ease your mind! My little girl absolutely loves going each day and she always has the biggest smile on her face going in and when I pick her up. Kim has been so accommodating with our schedule which is a massive help! On the days when she’s teething or a bit under the weather, Kim always makes sure to give her extra cuddles and attention which helps relieve some of the guilt when dropping her off on a bad day! It’s clear to see how much Kim cares about each child and loves what she does. I couldn’t recommend Kim enough and I’m happy my daughter will be with her for the next few years and we would definitely use Kim again for future children as well.
