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 son has been with Anna since this year, we are very pleased with the care. Anna is a very loving and helpful person, my son loves going to her, he also likes to play with other children. The food is always fresh and varied for every day. They have a lot of activities every day, the house is adapted for games and is safe. I am very satisfied and recommend Anna to other parents. Thank you đ.
We used Luknute while staying in London for a holiday. We were lucky to have found her! Our children loved her and wanted to bring her back to the states with us. We used Luknute for date nights and weekends as she has a full time job during the week. She took the kids to the park, movies, dinner and was knowledgeable about what to do and where to take the kids.
My son has never been so happy to go to nursery before . Weâve changed 2 places before Lina but with her everything is more than perfect. He has such a good development progress since he started and he loves it so do I. Also Lina is such a great person whatever I write is not gonna be enough . Thank you so much. đ
We struggled to find good childcare for our eldest. So we were absolutely delighted to discover Janine for our younger two, who she has cared for over the last few years (from age 1 until starting school). I cannot speak highly enough of her. She is everything you could ask for in a childminder.
She is caring, organised and fun. She does a huge variety of activities at her lovely home with the children and also takes them out all over the local area.
She is diligent and safety conscious, meaning you completely trust her with your child. She has a daily diary and photos of what the children have done each day which she shares. The weekly photos that she sends are always a treat to receive.
The children eat really well with Janine. She gets high quality food (organic fruit and veg boxes) and often gives the children what she is making for her own family. Her husband's homemade bread is also a hit. Even when our children don't eat well at home, we can always rely on them eating well at Janine's.
I also love how the children get welcomed into her family. She has two kind and welcoming teenage children who help out during school holidays, the eldest offers a babysitting service too.
Our middle child, who is now at school, always asks to go back to Janine's during school holidays!
Heather has been caring for my daughter since September 2024 for 15 hours a week, and from September 2025, weâre increasing to 30 hours weeklyâand I couldnât be happier with her! She is absolutely lovely, reliable, easy-going, and incredibly clean, which is so reassuring as a parent. As a first-time mum, Iâve found her guidance invaluable.
What truly sets Heather apart is her attentiveness to my daughterâs development. Anytime I have a concern, she focuses on it and ensures everything is addressed with care and professionalism. My daughter adores herâevery time we arrive at Heatherâs door, she giggles with excitement and looks genuinely happy. Unlike with strangers, where babies might cry, my daughter is completely at ease with Heather.
The communication with Heather is outstanding (10/10!), and I always feel reassured knowing my child is in a safe, clean, and nurturing environment. Heather is also incredibly understanding of my non-standard work hours, which makes things so much easier for me as a working mum.
I highly recommend Heather to any parent looking for a reliable, caring, clean, and flexible childminder. Sheâs truly amazing!
Angela is an absolutely wonderful childminder. She is kind and caring and my boys love her. We originally looked at quite a few childminders for my middle son and after meeting Angela we were immediately put at ease.
She has a lovely home and great space for the children. There is a also a lovely play area in the garden, which the children really enjoy.
Our son went 2 days a week from 14 months until he went off to preschool. We were then over the moon to start our youngest with Angela when I went back after mat leave.
They go to lots of clubs and trips, play together and have a great day. She has such a lovely bond with the children she looks after and we feel so lucky to have found her for our boys.
She often sends pictures of what they've been up to at the end of the day and sends them home with little crafts and bits which are so sweet and thoughtful.
She definitely has the childcare magic touch and has been amazing with sorting out our sometimes tricky nappers. She is just a calm and wonderful lady and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone.
I cannot fault Mrs Chaudhry! My son had such a happy time whenever he was there. I got updated with little videos and photos in the day of him playing or eating.
My son is in the process of getting an ASD diagnosis and she was so brilliant with all of his little quirks and takes it in her stride. I felt so much better sending him to someone who has children of her own and the whole family are so welcoming, warm and caring. It was like sending him to a home away from home! I knew he was in great hands and didnât worry about him at all through out the day. He didnât need time to settle at all, he just went straight in and heâs off playing! He went in a happy little boy and came out a happy little boy. What more could you ask for?
I canât recommend her highly enough. We are moving and will greatly miss her, I donât think we will find anyone like Mrs Chaudhry- she is truly irreplaceable! Thank you so much for everything.
Jess is the most amazing nanny to our little boy. She is so kind and caring with him and keeps him entertained all day with a range of activities - reading, playing, taking him on walks, going to the library or toddlers groups, or taking him to garden centres etc. She is so patient with him and she seems to really care. It is evident she has a lot of experience in childcare and we never worry when she is caring for him. Our son settles quickly with her every day and we can hear him happily playing and laughing with her and enjoying himself. Jess has been especially flexible and accommodating to our needs. She leaves the house tidy after her visits and our son is always clean. Unfortunately we are relocating so we canât continue having Jess as his nanny anymore but I would love to have kept her on and she will be very missed. I canât recommend her enough and just wish we had found her so much sooner!
We absolutely love Sara and Emma and the service they provide for our daughter. She is almost 2 now; she adores going there and has done since she turned 9 months old. Iâm always updated throughout the day, they reassure us with any developmental questions and our little girl is happy as ever when sheâs there. She always asked for âSaraâ and âEmmaâ! We couldnât have a chosen a better provider
Sarah was our emergency childminder for a few days as my son 12 m o was recovering from a nasty bug. I felt very comfortable with Sarah caring for our baby, she played with him between naps, ensured he was well fed, put him to sleep and took him out for a walk⊠I could hear him âtalkingâ cheerfully back at her and that made me smile. Sarah was considerate, punctual, a lovely person, no stress, no pressure, really nice and easy to trust her with our precious boy.
My daughter likes Mandeep.She cares incredibly for my daughter.Very careful and kind. When I had questions about my daughter she answered me immediately.
All the best
We weâre introduced to Claire back in 2018 by a good friend who had been using her as their childminder for several years.
We liked her immediately and our daughter loved every day she was in Claireâs care. She started with her at 8 months and only left to start pre-school. Her younger brother then started with her two years later.
We receive lovely updates as to the varied things they get up to. They also make many more friends than just those just in Claireâs care due to Claireâs network and sociable, fun yet structured approach.
All three of our children think of her as an Auntie and she still spends time with them all. We feel very lucky to have been introduced all those years ago.
My 2 yr old daughter is just so happy and is thriving. Jessica is v experienced and has a natural talent and empathy with children. She is v observant about my granddaughters development and keeps me informed. Life is never boring for the children and she takes them on so many activities. I would highly recommend Jessica
Birkenshaw Blossoms Childcare is absolutely fantastic and I recommend Amy highly.
Amy currently supports with wrap around care with my 3 soon to be 4 year old and I would be lost without her. My little boy has an amazing time with Amy, doing activities and playing with his friends. Amy really listens and offers a tailored service which has made me feel at ease whilst I am working.
I would highly recommend Amy at Birkenshaw Blossoms Childcare to everyone.
Weâre lucky enough to have our little boy attend Gwenâs childminding. He started with Gwen at 13 months and as two first time parents returning to work we were put at ease and supported so much as he settled into the new environment away from us. Gwen is empathetic, understanding, open and considerate of the challenge of leaving your child in childcare . She has open and consistent lines of communication and shares any concerns she has about our wee boy while he is in her care, she sends lovely pictures of the activities he has explored on outings or at home. She has made her childminding business a real home away from home and itâs such a good feeling to know he is in safe hands when not with us. Couldnât recommend Gwen more
Hannah looked after both my children over 3 years and I cannot praise her and her approach to childcare highly enough. Sheâs always out with the children doing fun things, from visits to places like National Trust/RHS Wisley/Windsor Great Park, to Legoland and Chessington, and lots gardens, parks and playgrounds. Hannah really gets to know each child and what they enjoy, and what they need to grow and learn. Her approach is creative and nature focused where the children are outside as much as possible. I donât think many other childminders offer the same level of experience. Hannahâs communication with parents is also excellent. Any family would be lucky to work with her.
I cannot recommend Hibanna enough! From the moment we stepped through the doors, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. The staff are incredibly attentive, caring, and genuinely invested in the well-being and development of every child.
I am a First time mother and it was extremely worrying for me to send my child to nursey when he does not speak but I had to go back to work. Communication is excellent, with regular updates and photos that give me peace of mind and allow me to feel involved in my childâs day-to-day activities. They have made myself and my child feel safe, loved and supported through the process.
The facilities are top-notchâbright, clean, and filled with age-appropriate toys and learning materials. The outdoor play area is a dream come true for little ones, offering plenty of space to explore and enjoy fresh air.
What truly sets this nursery apart is the nurturing environment. My child absolutely loves attending and has blossomed both socially and academically. The curriculum strikes the perfect balance between play and education, fostering creativity, curiosity, and a love for learning.
Thank you to the incredible team at Hibanna for providing such a safe, fun, and stimulating environment. Itâs clear that you love what you do, and it makes all the difference!
Since starting last summer from the very start Little Gems have been amazing they made me feel welcome as my little ones unique situation was very hard to explain as me being her special guardian but they were incredible at listening and understanding her needs. They accommodated her completely. She is very settled and happy and has made friends and great memories. I am happy I chose this setting for her. I look forward to watching her develop there. A big thank you to both Gem and Charlotte.
Where do we start with Rachael,
A beautiful person who cares for your children like they are her own,
Our son had the most wonderful time in her care and starting as a very anxious child with some separation issues she calmly and lovingly worked through them with us.
We couldnât have asked for better care or support and we are eternally grateful to her and for what she has done for us and for all her littles she cares for.

Itâs very hard to put into words just how amazing Little Trees has been, and is for our daughter. Theresa excels at all she does from her setting, communication and activity planning ensuring everything is designed around education, development and more importantly fun. The best way of knowing your child is happy is when they ask every day if they are going to Theresaâs even on a weekend!!
