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.
Alison looked after my little girl Effie for about 18 months. From the moment I met Alison I knew she was going to be the best childminder for Effie. She was so welcoming and engaging. Her home is like a home away from home. They were always going out on days out and doing lots of different activities. You can tell that Alison really cares for the children in her care. Effie blossomed whilst there and is now such a confident young girl. Effie now goes to nursery but speaks of Alison often and I know we all miss her. For anyone that wants to go to work and know their child is getting well looked after and going on fun adventures, I would recommend Alison 100 percent.
Ivana has been supporting our family for 3 and a half years and is a loving, kind, fun and experienced Nanny. Ivana started by helping with ad hoc days with my toddler as I work flexibly and needed someone I could rely on for additional childcare. Since May 2026 she has also been looking after my second baby for two to three days a week. Ivana is reliable, always on time and practical, her wealth of experience means she is full of helpful advice and guidance. She is also great fun, both of my children adore her and whenever she's around the house is full of giggling. Ivana knows the Ealing area really well, she can always pick the best activity, playgroup, playground or class to match the personality of my little ones. She's part of a wider community of local childminders and nannies so the children also developed friendships with consistent playdates and outings. Ivana also has the magic ability to get my tricky sleepers to do a 2 hour nap! I know we will always rely on Ivana for babysitting in the future and know she will be part of our children's lives for a long time.

We honestly feel so lucky to have found Silvy as our childminder. After a negative experience with a previous childminder, we were understandably nervous about finding the right person for our son. From the moment we started with her in Jan 2024, she completely restored our trust.
Silvy is incredibly kind, patient and caring, and it’s clear that she genuinely loves and cares about the children she looks after. She takes the time to really get to know each child with their interests, little habits, personality and emotions, and understands what they need as individuals. She has supported our son so much with his development, confidence and emotional needs, and helped prepare him brilliantly for starting nursery school. We still use her for school pick-ups and our son absolutely loves going to hers.
Silvy has a lovely family who our son talks about so fondly, she communicates so well and is just a genuinely wonderful person. We are incredibly grateful for everything she has done for our son and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family.
Anna looked after my daughter for over a year, until we moved away from the area, and I still miss her.
She gave the children a proper early years education. There was a different topic every week and my daughter always came home with something new to tell me. Teeth brushing week was a big one. She took it very seriously and was so proud of herself.
There was always something to do as well. Soft play, playgrounds, long walks, farms (Sacrewell was her favourite) and plenty of time around nature and animals. My daughter was always excited to go and never once didn't want to.
She came on so much in confidence and in how she plays with other children while she was there. Anna also got us through potty training, and handwashing is still taken extremely seriously in our house.
It's hard knowing who to trust with your little one, and I never had to think twice with Anna. If I could have packed her up and brought her with us when we moved, I would have.

We couldn’t recommend Nev more highly. She has played such a special part in our son’s life, helping him grow into the confident, intelligent, independent and kind little boy he is today - even helping us through potty training!
He absolutely adored Nev and her whole family and was always treated like one of their own. As he now moves on to preschool, we feel so sad to be leaving but incredibly lucky to have had Nev in his life. She is a beautiful person inside and out, with the biggest heart. Thank you for loving our boy and treating us like family. We’ll miss you so much. ❤️
We couldn’t be happier with Jade and the care she provides for our son. He settled in amazingly well and absolutely loves going to her. He is always so happy and excited to see her, which gives us so much reassurance as parents.
Jade provides such a warm, welcoming and stimulating setting and our son gets to take part in so many lovely activities and experiences. It’s clear how much thought, care and effort she puts into making sure the children are happy, engaged and learning.
Her approach to childminding is truly outstanding. I feel completely at ease knowing our son is in her care and it’s so lovely to see how comfortable and happy he is there.
We feel incredibly lucky to have found Jade and would highly recommend her to any parent looking for someone who genuinely cares about the children she looks after ❤️

We cannot recommend Hayley highly enough! Our daughter was with Hayley from the age of 2 until she started Reception, and we feel so blessed to have found her. Hayley is incredibly experienced and has such a natural talent and empathy with children. From day one, she provided a warm, safe and nurturing environment where our daughter felt completely at ease.
She especially loved all the local trips to the park, farm and other outings, and we always received regular updates and photos of what they were getting up to each day. We’re so grateful for all the care, love and happy memories Hayley has given our daughter. We would wholeheartedly recommend her!
We couldn’t recommend Marie highly enough! Our daughter was with her from 11 months old until she was 3, and throughout that time she was so incredibly well cared for. It truly felt like a home from home, and we always felt completely confident and reassured leaving her in her care.
Marie provided such a lovely, nurturing environment and made every day fun and exciting. She took the children to so many different places and gave them such wonderful experiences, from local parks, playgrounds, soft plays and music groups, to farm trips, strawberry picking and visits to Wisley Gardens. There was always something new to explore and enjoy.
One of my favourite things was receiving pictures throughout the day of what they had been getting up to. Seeing her little face enjoying herself and all the different activities she’d been doing was always a highlight of my day and made me feel so connected to what she had been up to while I was at work.
Our daughter absolutely loved her time there and grew in confidence so much. We are so grateful for all the care, love and wonderful memories she gave her during such an important part of her early years.
If you’re looking for a kind, caring and dedicated childminder, we would highly recommend her. She really is fantastic! ❤️
Lucas loved attending Harpreet’s for the last 18 months - unfortunately we have to leave because our job has moved location. Lucas always ate every home cooked meal, slept well and learnt so much. The regular photos and video updates were brilliant, flexible hours, and Harpreet has great communication to organise times too - thank you so much for looking after him so well, we are sad to leave.

Our son joined Carmen and Marta’s setting at 13 months and only recently left at just over 3 years old. When we joined, they told me their setting was like a home from home, and it truly has been. Our son has felt confident to grow and learn under their caring and kind guidance. As a naturally curious little boy, he was provided with countless opportunities and activities by Carmen and Marta to nurture his interests.
As the setting is smaller, our son was able to have one-to-one support with milestones such as potty training, and extra focus when he was being a little fussy with food.
Carmen and Marta have lots of toys and fun activities, and they take great care in planning what the children will learn. Our son enjoyed activities around different cultures, and special attention was placed on St Patrick’s Day, which is his family background. Santa came to visit the setting, and they took the children on days out to the zoo and a clipper boat (we were in awe that they herded children across London!). A big highlight for our son was when the caterpillars arrived for them to watch turn into butterflies to be released.
As first-time parents learning all the time, Carmen and Marta have been supportive and kind, offering us so much invaluable advice and guidance. We miss them as much as our son does!
We always say we struck gold finding Carmen and Marta, and we can’t thank them enough for everything they have done for our little family. They will always have a huge place in our hearts

Shadikay was a very good setup for my 2 year old. Fumi took all her time to understand my child. She was patient, kind and dedicated t make her really shine. Taking her to parks, libraries and playing around the setting.
I would definitely recommend xxx.
I couldn't be happier with the care my children are getting from Youngsta. Eunice is the best in taking time to understand my children's personality and routines through creating a safe and nurturing environment where both children feel comfortable and valued.
Thank you youngsta for all that incredible care xx.
Michele was there for me and my baby when we needed someone the most. I am truly grateful for her and appriciate her. My daughter bonded with her so much, as an anxious mum she put me at ease and the pictures just showed how happy my daughter was. Her settings are the best. Thank you Michele!
Maninder cared for our son from the age of 1 until he was 2.5. We are so grateful to her for the kind and attentive care she gave him during this period. Maninder is extremely calm and warm, which was so reassuring to us when he was little. The small group and homely environment meant our son received plenty of 1:1, tailored care and we really feel he is thriving as a result of all of Maninder’s hard work. She is extremely organised and always had plenty of activities organised for the children, we were constantly in awe at our son’s arts and craft creations he came home with- Maninder puts so much thought into everything she does. We really can’t recommend her enough and are so grateful to her!
We honestly cannot thank Claire and Megan enough for the love, care and kindness they have shown our children over the past four years. ❤️
They have cared for both our children, from when they were so little, and it has been such a comfort knowing they were in the safest, most loving hands while we were at work. Our 4.5-year-old and 2.5-year-old have both absolutely adored their time with Claire and Megan, and they have become such an important part of their lives — and ours.
Over the years, they have watched our children grow, learn and develop, always making sure they felt happy, safe, loved and included. The patience, dedication and genuine care they have shown them has meant more to us than we could ever put into words.
Leaving them after four years is incredibly emotional, but we will always be so grateful that our children had such wonderful people looking after them during these precious early years.
Thank you, Claire and Megan, for everything you have done, for all the memories you have created, and most importantly, for loving and caring for our children as if they were your own. We couldn't have asked for better childminders. ❤️
We will miss you both so much and will always be incredibly grateful for the special place you have had in our children's lives. Thank you for the most amazing four years! 🥰❤️

Laura has been part of our family for 5 wonderful years, caring for our children from when they were 6 and 3. From day one she has provided outstanding, loving and completely reliable care.
She is the perfect balance of professional, warm and fun. She has built such a beautiful, trusting relationship with both children - they absolutely adore her and light up when she arrives. She genuinely understands them as individuals, knows what makes them tick, and has supported them so thoughtfully through every stage, milestone and wobble.
She is incredibly organised, proactive, and uses her initiative without ever needing to be asked. Whether it's creative play, homework support, cooking healthy meals, or getting them out on adventures, everything is done with so much care and attention. Our house has always felt calm and safe in her hands.
Laura is kind, loyal, trustworthy and has become a truly valued friend to us all. Any family would benefit enormously from having her in their lives. We feel so lucky to have had her.
