my family had the pleasure of Lilly’s babysitting services, she was punctual, attentive, very good with my children they made kaleidoscopes, told stories and throughly enjoyed Lilly’s calm nurturing nature. I highly recommend anyone who wants a babysitter to look no further than Lilly. looking forward to using her services in the near future.

Madhu provides such thoughtful, personalised care and always goes above and beyond to make every session both fun and educational. She has a wonderful ability to engage children while helping them learn and grow.
Her warm, caring nature shines through in everything she does. She has made such a positive impact on our family that my son now sees her as part of it. We are incredibly grateful for the kindness, dedication, and genuine care she brings every day.
Anna showed real care and patience helping our daughter to settle. We were always thankful for her advice, honesty and support.
Anna provides the children with a loving, warm home environment with access to lots of lovely play experiences indoors and out. We have such fond memories. Thank you so much Anna. We all miss you terribly x
My 18 month daughter feels happy when we get to the door of Kavitha. She walks into the door and waves me bye without crying. She is well taken care of and I’m not worried about the safety of my daughter whilst she’s in her care. Kavitha takes the welfare and security highly serious. When my family comes to pick my daughter she still tells me when they left. She doesn’t forget my daughter medication and always ask if there any changes. Her assistants are also nice and well trained. Since my daughter started she sings more nursery rhyme. Urvashi and Kavitha daughter always tells me what activities they done with her when I do come pick up. My daughter has been there for 2 months and she is already settled and smiling. The home is nice and clean. The service is highly trained in supporting children. This is something I wanted for my daughter and she does look happy under Kavitha care.
Purnima has been an amazing childminder, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From day one, I always felt completely at ease leaving my daughter in her care. Purnima’s regular updates and excellent communication gave me peace of mind and reassured me that my daughter was happy, safe, and well looked after.
My daughter absolutely loved her time with Purnima. She made such wonderful friendships and enjoyed every moment she spent there. It has been such a positive and enriching experience for her, and she genuinely misses Purnima and all of her friends dearly.
We are so grateful for the care, kindness, and support that Purnima has provided over the years. She has played such an important role in my daughter’s early years, and we will always keep in touch. I would wholeheartedly recommend Purnima to any parent looking for a caring, trustworthy, and dedicated childminder.
Fizza has been taking my daughters to and from school and I honestly couldn’t ask for anyone better. She’s always on time, really reliable, and I never have to worry because I know my girls are safe with her.
She’s so friendly and great with children, and my daughters absolutely love her. She’s kind, patient, and always goes above and beyond to help out. Nothing ever seems like too much trouble for her.
It’s such a relief having someone so trustworthy and dependable. I would highly recommend Fizza to any parent looking for a safe, reliable, and genuinely caring school run service.
We were incredibly lucky to have Caroline as our night nanny from when our baby was only a few weeks old. During such an overwhelming stage of postpartum recovery, she made life so much easier for us. She was proactive, calm, experienced, and never needed much direction or preparation from us before her shifts - she would simply arrive and take over seamlessly, which was such a relief during those early months.
It was obvious how much she genuinely cared for our baby, and she always treated him with warmth and kindness. She was also a great source of support for me personally, offering thoughtful advice on parenting, breastfeeding and sleep whenever I asked, without ever being pushy. She even noticed that the umbilical cord may have been infected which is something we would have missed, and came with us to A&E that night!
She was reliable, punctual, and professional, and we always felt comfortable knowing our baby was in safe hands overnight. We’re very grateful for everything she did for our family and would happily recommend her to others looking for a caring and capable night nanny.

Lynn helped us in the early weeks with our baby as a night nanny and was always very warm, gentle, and caring with him. It was clear she genuinely cared about babies and wanted us all to feel settled and supported during such a tiring stage.
She was friendly, calm, and easy to have around overnight, and it was lovely knowing our baby was being looked after with care while we got some much-needed sleep. We appreciated the help she gave us during those early weeks and are grateful for the support she provided to our family.
We would happily recommend her as a night nanny to others.

Having had experience with a few childminders/babysitters over the years, I can honestly say there are none as good as Phe! She accompanied me into London to help look after my 2 children for the day and she was AMAZING! Well prepared, conscientious, kind, calm, alert, patient, experienced…all the things you’d want/need from a childminder/babysitter. The fact she’s got great qualifications is an added bonus! would recommend her to anyone!

Would recommend, 100%
First time ive left my kids with a childminder and Ruhama is incredible, really grateful to have come across her profile. She is very welcoming and was happy to explain everything in regards to her terms and policies, my children had a good time & settled in quickly with her and said she was nice, that they had a good time. She kept me updated whilst away too, which i was grateful for. Thankyou again ☺️
There aren’t enough words to properly describe how amazing Sophie has been as our childminder over the past 9 months.
From the very beginning, she has been warm, kind, and genuinely caring, and we have always felt completely confident leaving our son in her care. She creates such a nurturing and happy environment, and it is clear how much she truly cares for the children she looks after.
Sophie does so many varied and engaging activities with them, always keeping things fun, stimulating, and age-appropriate. We have been especially impressed with how much she has helped our son develop his understanding of colours and numbers during his time with her. It has been wonderful to see his confidence grow.
She also provides consistently lovely, nutritious, and tasty meals, which he always enjoys.
We are only saying goodbye because we are relocating to the US; otherwise, we would have loved for our son to stay with her much longer. We feel very lucky to have had her as part of his early years, and we cannot recommend her highly enough to any family looking for exceptional childcare.

Kasia, is currently looking after by almost 2year old boy and I could not be more happy about it. Her personal approach to kids is one of a kind and she always tries to find something for them to do as activities outside the house. She cooks the food and has a lot of variety. Thank you again for everything!
Anna
I cannot recommend Nic highly enough. From the very beginning, she has treated my daughter like one of her own, and that means the world to me as a parent.
My daughter absolutely adores going to Nanny Nic's. Every morning she runs straight into the house without looking back, which says everything about how happy, comfortable and loved she feels there. The bond they have built is truly special, and it's clear how much Nic genuinely cares for all of the children she looks after.
Nic is always taking the children on exciting adventures and introducing them to new places and experiences. My daughter has developed so much since starting with her, both in confidence and in her learning, and I know a huge part of that is down to the time, care and effort Nic puts into everything she does.
My eldest daughter attended a nursery, and while it was good, I honestly wish she had been able to experience the personal, family-like environment that Nic provides. The level of care, attention and love she gives each child is something truly special.
I am so grateful for everything Nic does for my daughter and for the support she gives our family. We couldn't have asked for a better childminder, and I feel incredibly lucky to have found her.
Zoe has looked after my two boys for a while now (2&5) and they absolutely love going round to play. The setting is lovely and warm with loads of activities. The best part is the wonderful garden filled with magical corners that gives the forest school feel. Would highly recommend!
I initially found Charlie through Facebook, where she regularly promotes her childcare services and her expertise in child development and behaviour. As a parent, these were qualities that genuinely interested me, and I was initially very positive about her profile.
However, after carrying out my own due diligence, I decided not to proceed. At the time of writing, the profile had been active for around four months and had four 5-star reviews. Whilst the two most recent reviews appeared genuine, I was concerned by the first two reviews, posted on 3rd and 4th February. The wording, structure, and descriptions used were remarkably similar, with both reviews referring to Charlie as calm, reliable, having a natural way with children, strong safeguarding awareness, and creating a nurturing environment. I cannot comment on their authenticity, but the similarities reduced my confidence in relying on them as independent reviews.
I was also left with questions regarding the profile itself. Charlie describes herself as a recently qualified maternity nurse, whilst simultaneously offering specialist behavioural, trauma-informed, attachment, emotional regulation and newborn support services at premium rates. As a parent, I found it difficult to understand the qualifications, accreditation, and level of specialist experience underpinning some of these claims.
In addition, the profile states that Charlie is a mother of two very young children whilst also advertising extensive weekday availability, school holiday flexibility, travel across multiple areas, and specialist support services. There may well be a perfectly reasonable explanation for this, but the profile did not provide enough information for me to understand how these commitments fit together.
Ultimately, trust, transparency, and authenticity are extremely important to me when selecting childcare. Whilst other families may have had positive experiences, I personally felt there were too many unanswered questions regarding the profile, reviews, experience, and specialist claims for me to feel comfortable moving forward.

Nosh looked after my children and did a wonderful job. She arrived on time, was reliable, friendly and professional.
My children really liked her and felt comfortable with her. I was very happy with the care she provided and would gladly recommend her to other families.

Aspasia has been working with us for the last couple of months as a nanny for our 1 year old boy. She is a caring loving nanny and our son warmed up to her immediately. She is also very clean and organised, professional, with a clear experience and knowledge in children's development. On top of taking excellent care of our son, she helps with cooking and other light household tasks. She is hardworking and reliable. We are very happy with her and we couldn't recommend her high enough.
Alison is an amazing nanny with so much experience. She will have been with us for 3.5 years - during which time she has cared for our children beautifully - going to work knowing she is with our children has made life so much easier than it might have been! She has been an absolute asset to our family. Alison is completely reliable, has loads of infectious energy and always has the best interests of the children at heart. She’s not afraid to be firm when needed, but the children adore her. We are really sad that we can no longer offer her enough hours to keep her, she is wonderful.
