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.
Our daughter Maeve was with Penny for 3.5 years! Over that time Penny has helped Maeve become the amazing little girl she is today ! We feel like the setting is home from home which is why Maeve settled so quickly. Maeve was always excited to go to Pennys and even asks now if she can go back weekly. I was a first time mum full of anxiety that was instantly reassured by Penny and how she interacted with Maeve. The setting alone blew us away and Maeve will always look back on Pennys cabin with some of the best memories. However Penny didn’t just stay at the cabin they enjoyed weekly trips out to sundown, groups, parks the list goes on. Nothing is ever to much trouble for Penny she is approachable and always helpful where she can be and has helped our family through some tough times. We will forever be grateful for everything she did for us and our daughter and we cannot recommend her enough. We are hoping to also send baby number 2 fo Penny next year ! The most loyal trust worthy childminder and we would not look anywhere else!
Amelia is absolutely wonderful with our boys. She is so calm, kind, warm and confident with the boys. Her SEN experience really shows and her approach with our son has been so amazing.
Amelia has such a lovely gentle approach, getting down to their level, engaging in play. She makes our boys feel safe, understood and cared for. She is also so gentle and kind to our doggos who also adore her!!
We feel so lucky to have found Amelia and couldn’t recommend her highly enough’

Stacey is an amazing childminder for my baby, she has a beautiful home and lovely family too. She plays wonderfully with my little boy and has great age appropriate toys for him. She also sends lots of pictures and videos to keep me updated throughout the day so I know what he’s been doing, including naps, food, bowel movements. I would highly recommend her to anyone, very warm maternal lady with a great singing voice that my son loves when she gets him to sleep :-)

Our little boy has spent almost 4 years being looked after by Carol & we honestly couldn’t have asked for more. He always enjoyed all the activities Carol put on & looked forward to each morning to see what toys were out that day! Carol likes to take the children out a lot too with visits to lots of parks, the farm & walks in the woods. We loved receiving daily updates of what they got up too along with lots of photos, we will definitely miss that!
Lizzie has been looking after my son for well over a year now, and watching their bond grow has been beautiful. My son is always asking about her to see when she is coming next. My son is autistic and can be a real handful at times, but Lizzie has never had a problem dealing with him and always in a way that she knows I'd be happy with. I honestly can't recommend her enough. She's been reliable, flexible and incredibly accommodating to the various changes that have happened over the past year. My only issue is that we wish we could have her more!
Emily looked after our son from around 11 months until he was 18 months old, and we couldn't have been happier with her. During that time, she played a big part in his development, helping him build his language, physical and cognitive skills, while always finding creative activities and ideas to keep him engaged throughout the day.
She also helped us create a safe, healthy and nurturing environment for him, and we always felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care. Emily is extremely professional, reliable and punctual, and we could always count on her.
The only reason we had to stop working with Emily was because of our family travel plans abroad. Otherwise, we would have happily kept her for much longer. We would absolutely recommend her to any family looking for a caring, trustworthy and genuinely great nanny.
Rahel is an incredible childminder who truly understands how to keep a busy 4-year-old engaged and happy. She organizes the best activities, from creative arts and crafts to outdoor adventures and park trips. The environment is safe, high-energy, and deeply nurturing. Communication is excellent, and I always feel completely reassured knowing my child is having such a wonderful time through regular updates including picture.
Cassie is quite simply wonderful - she has an innate connection with children and I trusted Cassie completely with my two young children. She brought a beautiful balance of warmth, care, and fun, all while maintaining healthy boundaries for them. Cassie supported us as parents and gave the children a wonderful mix of developmentally enriching activities, healthy routines, and so much love. I would recommend her without any hesitation.

We used Sam whilst on holiday in wadebridge, she was on time, communicated very well, and made our children feel very comfortable and safe.

Donna was fantastic with our 9- and 11-year-old daughters! She was warm, responsible, and immediately made them feel comfortable. The kids had a great time with her, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. We would happily have Donna babysit again and highly recommend her!
We honestly couldn’t recommend Severine and Roche enough. They have looked after our son for the past two years, and we feel incredibly lucky to have had them as such an important part of his life.
From day one, they have provided him with so much love, care, patience and encouragement. He has always been so happy and excited to go to them, which gave us complete peace of mind knowing he was somewhere he felt safe, settled and genuinely cared for.
They have helped him grow in confidence, independence and character, and we have seen such a lovely difference in him over the two years.
We are especially grateful for all the little things they have done, the memories they have created and the fun they have given
him.
We will always be grateful for everything they have done for our son and for the wonderful start they have given him.
Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts. We couldn’t have wished for anyone better to care for him
Words cannot express how grateful we are to Giggles. Our son started here when he turned 1, and now, at 4 years old, he is leaving to start reception as a confident, happy little boy. Over the last three years, Giggles provided far more than just childcare; they gave him a true home-from-home and a second family.As a parent, dropping your child off can be daunting, but I never spent a single moment worrying. I always knew he was being loved and cared for exactly as I would care for him myself. Even when he was poorly, they went above and beyond—offering immense support, checking in on his recovery, and making sure he felt safe and comforted. They are incredibly responsible, deeply caring, and genuinely wonderful people. We are so sad to leave, but we highly recommend them to any family looking for a nurturing, loving environment.
Very caring childminders who are brilliant at allowing children to explore the world safely and give them lots of personal care and attention. It’s been great for our child so far to learn and develop this way. Lots of fun photos and content is shared and we really recommend them to other parents.
Leaving my son at 10 months was the hardest thing I ever had to do but Debs and Barbara made it very easy, he has absolutely loved him time with them and we are so sad he is leaving them (pre-school and a house move) we can’t thank them enough for taking our son into their home as one of their own and helping him develop with so many skills such as social, language etc

We couldn’t have asked for a better childminder! She was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She was caring, patient, kind and incredibly attentive, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about my child’s happiness and wellbeing.
She created such a warm, safe and welcoming environment, which gave us complete peace of mind. Communication was always excellent, and she went above and beyond to make sure my child was comfortable, happy and well looked after.
I’m so grateful for all the love, care and effort she put in. I would highly recommend her to any parent looking for someone trustworthy, caring and reliable. Absolutely amazing — thank you for everything! ❤️
We love you Nisa

Thanks Soonu for giving such a warm, nurturing and safe environment for my both daughters. I highly recommend Soonu and ' Happy Hours'. My both daughters have gone to Soonu in their growing years . One is now 16 and other one is 7 ( she still goes to Soonu) and she has always nurtured them with care and love which is so important and peaceful for a working mother. Food provided is very good and home made and children are involved in activities. Without her support it could not have been an easier journey. Thanks Soonu, Harjit and Damini for being such amazing aunties for my daughters.
We’ve had a wonderful experience with Siew Hoon and would highly recommend her to any family.
Siew Hoon is a fantastic nanny—she is incredibly organised, always plans ahead, and puts thought into each day’s activities and routine. She is proactive and always thinks one step ahead, which made everything run so smoothly.
She is also very patient, kind, and friendly. She has a calm and caring nature, and our daughter always felt happy and comfortable with her. Siew Hoon is reliable, attentive, and genuinely cares about the children she looks after.
We’re very grateful for all her help and the care she has given our family, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
