From the first meeting with Bev I knew this was the place for my son. I had visited other childminders in the area but Bev was organised, professional and caring,
My son thrived during he’s time at her setting, he loved it and loved her. We felt at ease knowing he was in a setting which was home like, educational and fun. Bev is an exceptional childminder, the best to say the least. She is amazing with the kids, not just mine and we will cherish the time he spent there and I know my son did too.
We honestly am so grateful we found her and if we had another child she would be the first person we contact for her services!
Thank you so much Bev, we love you!!!
My daughter Florence went to Cath and Rach from 8 months until just over 2 and a half, 3 days a week. She absolutely loved them both, and we always found them so nurturing and kind. We moved out of Birmingham last year and unfortunately had to find alternative childcare. Florence still asks to see them now, and often talks about some of the other children she made friends with. We would really recommend.
Our 2 year old has been in Linda's care for 3 days a week for a few months now and we cannot recommend her highly enough.
From day one, she made our child feel safe, loved and right at home, and we always felt completely at ease knowing they were in her care. Linda is incredibly attentive and nurturing, keeping the children engaged with a variety of activities including arts and crafts, trips to the park, and fun seasonal celebrations.
She has always been flexible and understanding when we've needed to make changes, which as working parents means the world to us. If you're looking for a childminder in the Peckham/Nunhead area, Linda is an excellent option.
Had a viewing with this childminder which I thought went well. So well that I went to message her to go ahead, to find out she had blocked me with no reasoning.
If you didn’t want to take me on a simple message would have been the more professional way to handle it.
Absolutely gobsmacked by this behaviour from someone who looks after children. Just a warning to parents who decide to book in a viewing with her. Go elsewhere!
Our son has been in Jo's house for over a year now and we couldn't be happier. He settled in amazingly and we have never had to worry about him as it was clear that Jo knows exactly what she is doing from day one. They often go out to parks and groups and do all sorts of fun activities and we get many cute artworks to bring home! He has developed in all areas and clearly enjoys his time at Jo's, I would highly recommend the setting to anyone looking for a reliable, professional and activity-filled childminder. I have noticed all the other children are also happy and well-behaved, and Jo has long-standing relationships with their families. Outstanding :)

I have been using Natasha’s services since my daughter was 9 months old. She is now 4. But I kept her with Natasha rather than enrolling her at school nursery. Because I really like the setting, the nurturing and the wide range of activities she does there. Which I know won’t be happening as much in a school setting. Natasha is brilliant, kind and a caring childminder, she is will be my recommendation for any parents who live in Isleworth and require the services of a childminder.
Mercedes is an amazing babysitter she reply’s really fast to messages and is easy to message when she arrived one of my sons where still awake and he smiled and took to her instantly she didn’t hold back and interacted with him straight away she kept us updated through the night and think we have found our regular go to babysitter she is fantastic
Leanne is an absolutely amazing childminder and we couldn’t recommend her enough. Our toddler attends her setting 4 days a week and he adores her! He has come on leaps and bounds since starting with Leanne, and quite literally runs to her house shouting her name in excitement!
Leanne is extremely friendly, caring and trustworthy. We get daily feedback on our child via the app, with extra photos, videos and messages showing just how much fun our son is having!
We have found Leanne to be extremely reliable, and she’s brilliant at listening to our needs, and offering support and advice when needed.
Our toddler goes out every day with Leanne, something which is really important to us as parents. They visit farms, the library, soft play, local baby groups, and lots of other places! My husband and I joke that he has a better social life than us!
We couldn’t be happier with the service provided and genuinely feel that we’ve struck gold. Thank you Leanne for everything that you do!
Beth has been the most wonderful childminder to my two children for over 3 years. The perfect home from home, extended family feel that both my children adore. They are always happy running in and full of smiles at collection. The care Beth takes for each child is second to none. From wonderful educational activities, open ended play, art & crafts to adventures at parks and out and about. Our family could not recommend Beth highly enough.
My son has been with Caron and her team for about a year now and we couldn’t be happier. We didn’t originally choose a childminder but now can’t believe we hadn’t explored it earlier, especially because we hit the jackpot with Caron. He has learnt so much in the last year, has developed in so many ways and he continues to surprise us daily with new words or actions.
Caron has such a good schedule which is educational, fun and you can see how much the children love spending time with her as much as she loves her job. She has endless energy, patience and I’ve never met a more organised person. We are kept fully up to date throughout the day and she communicates everything needed to make sure you are comfortable.
Super super happy we found her and excited for our second to join her and the adventures :)

We are very lucky to live close to Saskia,and when we found out she is a childminder and a babysitter, couldn't be happier. We can always count on her when we need help with our two young children,and she provides the best care every single time. Saskia is very creative with the kids,and after she leaves,they start asking,when is the next time they can have a "playdate" with her. I also see her with the children she minds in the parks and at playgroups,and can admit she is very involved and all her attention is on the children.
Sandra has been tutoring our daughter for GCSE French and the progress has been remarkable. She has a real talent for explaining grammar clearly while keeping lessons engaging and encouraging. Our daughter’s confidence in speaking has improved significantly and she now approaches exams much more calmly. Sandra is always well prepared and adapts the lessons to exactly what the student needs. We are extremely grateful for her support and would highly recommend her.
We feel incredibly lucky to have found such an exceptional childminder. From the very beginning, it was clear how much care, dedication, and genuine love goes into looking after the children. The environment is warm, safe, and welcoming, and our child settled in quickly and always comes home happy.
What truly stood out is the level of attention given to each child’s development and wellbeing. There are always engaging activities, opportunities to learn, and plenty of outdoor play, all while making the children feel comfortable and supported. Communication is also excellent — we’re always kept informed about how the day went, which gives us real peace of mind.
We would highly recommend this childminder to any parent looking for a nurturing, reliable, and truly wonderful place for their child.
Bev is truly the best!
I can’t thank Annette enough for everything she’s done for my baby boy. She has such a lovely way of making him feel special and the bond they’ve built is just so sweet to see. It’s so clear that she genuinely loves what she does. She creates a happy, nurturing space where he can just be himself.
Her communication is brilliant! She always keeps me updated on what he’s getting up to throughout the day which is so reassuring. Plus, her play area is the best honestly, it’s such a great set up for kids. Finding a childminder you truly trust isn’t easy and we feel so lucky to have found her!
We couldn't be happier with the care our daughter receives at Dougans Den. Michelle and Laura provide such a stimulating environment; our daughter is always full of smiles and comes home having clearly had the best time. They do so many great activities—lots of outdoor play, creative crafts, and fun den building. As a parent who was initially anxious about childcare, seeing how much she has flourished and how happy she is to arrive each morning has been wonderful. Highly professional and genuinely caring!
My daughter has been with Caron for just over a year now and I honestly can’t fault the care she receives, from the amazing outings and day trips, to the home cooked meals given, Caron and her family are always so friendly and welcoming.
My daughter absolutely loves her time with Caron, Andy and Caz, as well as the other children she’s made friendships with there. You can really see how much time and effort goes into looking after every child. I’m so grateful for everything they do – thank you ❤️

We feel incredibly lucky to have found Caron. Our son has been with her since November and the difference in him in just a few months has been amazing to see.
She puts so much thought and care into everything she does with the children. They are always out and about exploring, with trips to the park, playgroups and little adventures, and it is clear how much effort she puts into making each day engaging and stimulating for them.
His development has come on so much during this time. His speech has really improved, his confidence has grown, and he clearly has the best time with her.
Caron is also incredibly thoughtful about the children’s nutrition. The meals are always really healthy and balanced, with lots of variety, fruit and vegetables, and different foods for them to try. It is clear she puts real care into making sure they are eating well.
Most of all, it is so reassuring to know he is somewhere he feels safe, happy and genuinely cared for. As parents that means everything, and we are so grateful that we found her.
