We feel so lucky to have Srujaan as part of our family’s life! He has been absolutely wonderful with our three children our 8-month-old baby girl, 3-year-old son, and 7-year-old son. Srujaan is incredibly caring, patient, and joyful; he always engages the kids with fun and age-appropriate activities while ensuring they are safe and happy.Beyond babysitting, he has been a huge help around the house, always reliable and responsible with any chores we ask him to do. Our dog also loves his walks with him, which shows just how thoughtful and caring he is toward our entire family.Srujaan has become more than just a nanny , he’s a trusted, warm, and positive presence in our home. We can’t recommend him highly enough!

Our daughter has been with Nosheen for a year, and we couldn’t be happier. She provides such a loving, safe, and fun environment where our little one feels completely at home. Every day is filled with creative and educational activities, healthy meals, and so much care and attention.
Communication is always excellent, and it’s clear how much passion and dedication she puts into everything she does. We feel so lucky to have found her — our daughter absolutely adores her, and we can’t recommend her highly enough.
I am so glad i contacted her and she was so punctual and I was very delighted when she arrived all my fear went away as this was my first time
Highly recommended my kids loved her so much and i was very very happy and comfortable with her ❤️❤️
It was really hard leaving our little one at 7 months with a childcare provider but Danielle and the team have loved on him so well. Danielle is incredibly supportive and helpful she is really responsive and answers any questions. I am so grateful that we found Little Peeps, they update us with lots of pictures of our little boy and he comes home chatty and happy. They think of activities for the children and just seem to really care about the children too. Highly recommend.

Nina has been taking care of my daughter every day for the past two years, ever since we arrived in England, and I couldn’t be more grateful for everything she has done. From the very beginning, she created a warm, loving, and safe environment where my daughter has truly thrived.
Nina is not only caring and patient, but also incredibly dedicated and professional. She has played a huge role in my daughter’s growth, confidence, and development — both emotionally and socially. My little girl absolutely adores her and always looks forward to spending time with her.
Now that my daughter is moving to a new nursery, it is very difficult for both her and us to say goodbye. Nina will always have a special place in our hearts as the first person who played such an important role in our child’s early years.
We feel so lucky to have found Nina. She has become like part of our family, and I can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and wonderful childminder.

Erin worked with our family from June to August 2025, supporting us with our daughter from 6 to 15 weeks old.
Her role was to provide assistance in the home one day a week while I recovered from childbirth and cared for our exclusively breastfed baby. Erin’s duties were primarily shared care, and she did not have sole charge for longer than brief periods (around 30 minutes). She did not implement any sleep techniques or offer advice on sleep, feeding, or newborn care during her time with us.
There were also some lapses in judgment — for example, taking our 2-month-old baby out for a walk during a heatwave despite the high temperatures. On another occasion, Erin requested to take our baby to a social gathering with other nannies and babies — a group of people I had never met. As our baby was very young, exclusively breastfed, and had not yet travelled in the car with her, I did not feel this would benefit our baby and declined.
Erin then chose to end her placement without notice, communicating this via text message. While Erin was friendly, our experience did not align with what is currently described on her professional profile.
I had not intended to leave a review, but after seeing her profile’s description of her time with our family, I felt it was important to provide an accurate account of our experience. Families considering working with her may wish to clarify expectations, responsibilities, and preferred working style in advance.
Javae looked after my son who is 18 months for a few days. She was great with him, very patient, did a lot of activities, nap time, feeding etc...
She is very kind and trustworthy. I felt safe with with her in my home and trusted that my son was being well taken care of.
I couldn’t recommend Alix enough, she is absolutely incredible with my son. I know he has the best time with her, she takes him out on adventures and is brilliant with “at home” activities. My son is so excited in the mornings at drop off, which is just a lovely feeling as a mum. Alix is also brilliant with updating me throughout the day with pictures, videos and messages. This is so lovely for me to have through my day to know he is happy and most importantly safe. Alix, thank you for all you do with my son, I’m so happy I found you x

Hayley has been an amazing childminder and my daughter absolutely loves her and spending time with Hayley. Everyday the updates I get are of my daughter always smiling and having fun and she genuinely loves it. I really appreciate the care she has been providing to my daughter and I can highly recommend her!
Slavka and Stuart at Luna and Stars have cared for my daughter (now almost 3) since she was just 7 months old, and I can honestly say they have treated her like their own child. The love, warmth, and attention they give is truly special.
Every day is filled with learning, creativity, and joy — from painting, singing, and exploring nature, to trips to the park, farm, library, and even the history museum. Their home is a beautiful, welcoming environment with a lovely garden and playhouse that my daughter adores. Healthy, home-cooked meals are always provided, and they create such a nurturing balance of fun and education.
I visited many childminders and nurseries before choosing Luna and Stars, and none came close to the care and quality that Slavka and Stuart provide. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough, and although I’m sad my daughter will soon be moving on to nursery, I will always be grateful for the incredible start they have given her.

My little girl has been diagnosed with autism and adhd and I find it so stressful when having to leave her....Jane spoke to me on the phone prior spent some time getting to know Georgie and I. She is a wonderfully calm and caring person and went off completely relaxed and at ease. My daughter absolutely loved Jane and the moment she left was asking me when she'd be back to see her. Highly recommended babysitter! A*
"I'm absolutely thrilled with Toyin Odunsi! She provided top-notch care for my child, and I couldn't have asked for a more loving and trustworthy caregiver. Toyin went above and beyond to ensure my child's needs were met, and her development was always a priority. The communication was excellent, and I felt confident leaving my child in her care. I highly recommend Toyin Odunsi to any parent looking for a reliable and caring childminder. Five stars isn't enough she deserve ten stars if I could give it!"
We are absolutely delighted with Caz as our childminder! From day one, she made our child feel comfortable and safe. Her warmth, professionalism, and dedication shine through every single day. Caz goes above and beyond, creating engaging and fun activities that our child absolutely loves. We couldn’t be happier and feel so fortunate to have found her. Highly recommend her to any parent!
I was so scared at first as only family has looked after my children, but first impressions was amazing, geneane was very confident and polite and she made me feel at ease within the first 5 minutes. My children loved having her here and keep asking when next time is. The house was clean and tidy when we got back which I appreciate that very much, she’s such a lovely person and I would recommend her to anyone and everyone, will be seeing her again 😊

**A Truly Exceptional Babysitter – Safiya**
Safiya has been a blessing to our family. As a single mother with two moody little ones who often experience big emotions whether they're tired, bored, or just having a tough day .finding someone who can meet them with patience, kindness, and understanding felt impossible. Then we met Safiya.
She has a natural gift for connecting with children. No matter how stormy the mood, she knows exactly how to calm the waters. Her gentle approach, emotional intelligence, and ability to make the kids feel safe and comforted is something truly special. Even our cat adores her!
Safiya is always punctual, dependable, and never once has she let us down. My children absolutely love her and constantly ask when she’s coming back. That kind of bond and trust is priceless.
I can say without hesitation that Safiya is the best babysitter I’ve ever had. I trust her completely with my children, and I’m so grateful to have her in our lives.
I was very disappointed with my experience. I had been in contact with this childminder about a placement for my daughter and had requested the childcare agreement a couple of times to review and sign. We had also visited the setting a couple of times and made clear our intentions. Less than a week after the agreement was finally sent, I found out - only after I followed up - that the placement had already been given to someone else without any notice.
I completely understand that places can fill up quickly, but I would have appreciated clear communication or at least being informed before the placement was offered to another family. The lack of transparency was unprofessional.

I cannot recommend Edith highly enough! She & all the staff at Malaika Care have been caring for my one-year-old child since she was 9 months, with such genuine love, patience, and attentiveness that we as her parents truly feel we’ve found someone very special in Edith. From the very beginning, she made us feel comfortable and reassured, taking the time to understand our child’s personality, needs, and daily routines.
What stands out most about Edith is her consistent support and flexibility. As every parent knows, schedules can change quickly, and Edith has always been understanding and accommodating, which has been an enormous help for our family. Her communication is excellent, and I always feel informed and confident that my child is in a safe, nurturing environment.
But beyond her reliability, it's the warmth and genuine care Edith shows that makes her exceptional. She engages meaningfully with my child, whether it’s singing songs, playing games in the play area, or simply offering comfort and encouragement. I see the positive impact in my child’s happiness, confidence, and development every single day. I've also seen my child develop in ways I wouldn't have been able to execute solely. Having the wisdom & guidance of a professional like Edith is not one I take for granted, as a firs time parent.
Finding the right childminder can be overwhelming, but Edith has been everything we hoped for and more. She is a trustworthy, attentive, and truly wonderful caregiver, and we feel incredibly lucky to have her & all the staff at Malaika Care. Any parent considering her should know: your child will be cared for with kindness, respect, and heart.
She & all the staff at Malaika Care are truly Godsent gems. 🌟
My little one has been with Sahira for just over two years. There's plenty of activities throughout the day, to the point my little one will usually fall asleep in the car going home. Sahira provides a warm and welcoming environment and my little one has never once grumbles about going. Going to Sahira's is something my little one always looks forward to! I receive photos throughout the day and a run down at the end of the day. Sahira actively encourages learning and socialising throughout the day. I am truly thankful that we have Sahira!

Our son immediately struck up a raport with Shabana and is always happy to see her. He has developmental delays but her calm demeanour helps him feel safe and settled. His writing/drawing has come on leaps and bounds during his time with Shabana, so much so that he now loves to draw and has the confidence to do so, which wasn’t the case before. He used to just want to watch us draw. She is focused on helping prepare him for school full-time by teaching him phonics, writing, numbers which is hugely beneficial and exactly what we want as he is currently at school part-time.
