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 hired Jane to look after our 12-week-old baby during a wedding at Bruisyard Country Estate, covering a Friday evening and the following Saturday. From the moment we met her, Jane was warm, kind, and caring, and she immediately put us at ease.
It was clear throughout that she genuinely loves what she does, and she took wonderful care of our little one while allowing us to fully enjoy the wedding celebrations. Her professionalism, nurturing nature, and attention to detail were outstanding.
We would highly recommend Jane to anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced nanny, and we wouldn't hesitate to use her services again in the future.

My son started with Theresa when he was just over two years old after struggling to settle in a larger nursery setting. The home based environment suited him much better, and he settled in very quickly.
Theresa has created such a warm, caring, and family oriented atmosphere. My son is always excited to go, and sometimes he’s so eager to get inside that he barely says goodbye to me. As a parent, that gives me great reassurance that he feels happy, safe, and comfortable in her care.
Since joining, I have seen a huge improvement in his speech, confidence, and social skills. He enjoys activities such as colouring, painting, writing, reading, imaginative play, and outdoor activities like going to the park and riding his scooter.
Theresa is also incredibly helpful, flexible, and accommodating whenever extra support is needed. Most importantly, I have complete peace of mind when my son is with her. I am very careful about who I leave my children with, but I have never had any concerns about his safety or wellbeing.
They have built a wonderful bond, and it is clear how much she genuinely cares for the children she looks after.
I would highly recommend Theresa to any parent looking for a nurturing, supportive, and trustworthy childcare setting.
I have not rated food as my child always takes his own meals from home.
We have used Goldie on and off for about 3/4 years. She has been utterly amazing with both our children. Her fun loving sense of self and caring nature made us feel very trusting and happy with her services. She is warm and loving and goes above and beyond. I would highly recomend Goldie.

Liz is an amazing childminder! I knew I didn’t want to go down the nursery root after experiencing it with my first son and im so happy with the service Liz provides. My little boy is so happy to be with her. He participates in a range of activities every day and it’s so nice to see from the photos Liz provides! She gives a full breakdown of my child’s day, sends photos and is available via message at any point should I need to contact her. Such a safe and stimulating environment for my little one.. it’s made my transition back to work so much easier because I know little one is safe and well looked after. Thank you Liz xxx
I highly recommend Goldie.
We have used her to babysit our 8 and 4 year old a few times now and she's always very friendly, helpful and punctual.
My kids love her and there is never any drama when we want to go out because they enjoy having Goldie babysit them. She instantly replies to messages if I want to check how they're going.
I couldn't be happier with our experience with our nanny! She worked wonders with my daughter, helping us tackle the huge challenges of getting rid of the pacifier and potty training.She was always incredibly accommodating and flexible with our schedule whenever needed. Most importantly, my daughter absolutely loved going to her and was always picked up with a big smile on her face. We truly couldn't have asked for a better nanny and I am so sad that our time working together has to come to an end.
We asked Jade to look after our 9 month old baby and two older daughters age 11 and 13 3pm-midnight. Not having had a babysitter before, I was unsure about the process but Jade put us at ease straight away. She arrived on time and my girls had a great day. Jade took the time to get to know them, interact with them and ensured they were kept occupied. We were very impressed with her services and will definitely ask her to return in the future. Thank you, Jade!

The reason for the review title is we often compare Donna to Mary Poppins! Donna is genuinely like part of the family and we don't know where we'd be without her. Donna look after our middle child, who we gave up on the idea of nursery after a very traumatic attempt at settling in, who took to Donna a dream! from 1 year 1 month until she was 4 and out little girl not only adored Donna but thrived in her care. We then did not hesitate to secure a place when we found out baby number 3 was on route, who has been going to Donna for about 6 months now and despite being a very attached BF baby, she has no issues going to Donna and seems to also be coming on a dream. If you're looking for some who will be kind and patient and love your child as if it's her own, look no further, honestly cannot praise Donna enough

Aida is as a wonderful, professional overnight nanny for our eight week old. Aida is extremely punctual, friendly and went the extra mile to accommodate our changing needs! She also worked hard to cure our daughter’s nappy rash within seven days. Aida was also incredibly discreet - you wouldn’t know she was in our home.
We really appreciate all of Aidas support and would love her to look after our daughter in the future.
if you are considering an overnight nanny, don’t hesitate to snap Aida up.

We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful childminder for our twins. She has cared for them since before they were 1 year old, and over the past 3.5 years she has become such an important part of their lives.
From the very beginning, she created a warm, safe, and nurturing environment where both children have thrived. Although they are twins, they have very different personalities, and one of the things we have appreciated most is how she has always taken the time to understand and support them as individuals. She has encouraged their unique interests, strengths, and characters, helping each of them grow in confidence and develop in their own way.
They have loved spending time outdoors, exploring, playing, and learning about the world around them. They have also thoroughly enjoyed the many creative activities she provides, especially painting and arts and crafts, which have allowed their imaginations and confidence to flourish. Every day has been filled with fun, learning, and new experiences.
As they prepare to start school, we can clearly see the positive impact she has had on their development. She has helped them become confident, independent, kind, and curious children who are excited and ready for this next chapter. The foundations she has given them during these important early years are invaluable.
As parents, we have always had complete trust in her care. Knowing our children were happy, safe, and loved gave us enormous peace of mind. Her professionalism, reliability, and genuine dedication to the children she looks after are exceptional.
We cannot thank her enough for everything she has done for our twins and for us as a family over the last 3.5 years. We will always be grateful for the love, care, and support she has given our children. We would recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for outstanding childcare.
Adiyo has been a fantastic tutor. She’s dedicated and responsible, always well organised, and clearly on a mission to give me the skills I need to tackle science topics on my own. She explains everything thoroughly, taking the time to make sure I actually understand rather than just rushing through. On top of that she’s genuinely patient, which makes a real difference when a topic doesn’t click straight away. I’d happily recommend her.
I highly recommend Tanya as a childminder. She has been looking after my eldest daughter, who has just turned 9, for the past 2 years, and my 4-year-old daughter for the last year.
My daughters absolutely love going to Tanya’s and are always asking when they will be seeing her again. Tanya provides a wide variety of healthy, home-cooked meals. My eldest daughter loves Tanya’s food, and even my younger daughter, who is usually a very picky eater, always eats well when she is with Tanya.
Tanya is incredibly nurturing, caring, and supportive. She always does her best to help our family, whether it’s providing care on INSET days or accommodating us when she has space available.
She keeps the children active and engaged by taking them to playgroups, parks, and other activities, helping them learn, socialise, and have fun.
I honestly don’t know what I would do without Tanya’s help and support. She has made such a positive difference to our family, and we are incredibly lucky to have her. Knowing my daughters are happy, safe, and well cared for gives me complete peace of mind.
There are truly not enough words to describe how wonderful Tanya is. We are so grateful to have found such an amazing childminder, and I would recommend Tanya to any family without hesitation.
Thank you, Tanya, for everything you do for our girls.
My son has been attending Mrs Sarah’s setting since the beginning of May, and we have been very happy with the care she provides. He has settled in extremely well, which is a testament to the warm, nurturing, and welcoming environment she creates.
Mrs Sarah communicates exceptionally well and keeps me updated about my son’s day, activities, and development. Her reassurance and regular communication have made the transition into childcare much easier for both of us and puts my mind at ease.
It is clear that she genuinely cares about the children in her care and works hard to ensure they feel safe, happy, and engaged. My son enjoys attending and has grown in confidence since starting with her. I would highly recommend Mrs Sarah to any parent looking for a caring, reliable, and professional childminder.

My son started a few months ago, and has enjoyed going to Shamima. She always communicates well, is kind and happy.
My son is autistic, and struggles with change, she was understanding and made the transition easy.
I was so nervous exploring childminders/babysitters to look after my 3 year old boy.
Archie was also worried but at our first meeting with Ailsa she put me and archie at ease with her bubbly confident manner. Archie warmed to her immediately and I was reassured that he would be safe and well cared for. Had regular updates on the activities and how he was during the day.
Archie now loves her and is happy to be minded - a tremendous relief for me.
I would recommend Ailsa without reservation. Thank you Ailsa!
My son has been with Lucy since October when he was 11 months old. I knew as soon as I visited Lucy’s home that he was going to love it. Lucy has a lovely setting for the children, makes them home cooked meals. He has come on so much. I’m so glad that we found Lucy :)
