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 feel incredibly lucky to have found Karrie. From the very beginning she welcomed our son into her home with so much warmth, kindness and care that leaving him with her always felt easy.
She has created such a nurturing environment where the children enjoy wonderful adventures, imaginative play, stories, crafts and plenty of time outdoors. It was clear to see how much thought and effort she puts into helping every child learn, grow and develop, while making each day fun.
Karrie and her family have became so much more than our sons childminder – she became part of our extended family. She has supported only our son but us as parents too, and we will always be grateful for the love, patience and encouragement she has shown him. He has made the most wonderful memories during his time with her, and we know she has given him the very best start before school.
We couldn’t recommend Karrie more highly. Thank you for everything you’ve done for R, we’ll always be forever grateful.
Beth has been taking care of my son for a few days each week since he was 16 months old. He is now 21 months old and their close relationship is lovely to see.
I was nervous about hiring a nanny because my son is still breastfeeding, is very attached to me, and I work from home. Beth has been very flexible and patient. She takes him on outings every day: they have explored parks, libraries, museums, soft play, paddling at the harbourside, and play dates with other children, all planned by Beth. After his first outing, he came back beaming and gave me a high five for the first time!
Beth has been very helpful in getting my son to try new foods: she has a magic touch that has got him to try many foods that he refused when I gave them to him.
Beth's approach is loving and gentle, respecting my son's autonomy and encouraging his adventures. She is an expert in outdoor living and can handle all weathers, making sure he is comfortable and well-hydrated.
My son is thriving under Beth's care and can't wait to get in the pram to go with her each morning. She gives him rich interactions with the world from a secure relationship which facilitates his learning. I have no hesitation in recommending Beth as a nanny.
Carla has been an amazing childminder, and we can't recommend her highly enough. She looked after our son for several years, and from day one she made him feel like part of her family. Her whole family welcomed him with so much love and kindness, which meant the world to us.
Carla is bubbly, caring and full of positivity. Every day I went to work knowing my son was safe, happy and genuinely loved, and that peace of mind was priceless.
She went above and beyond to care for, educate, nurture and encourage our son, helping him grow into the wonderful little person he is today. The day he had to leave was incredibly sad because Carla had become such an important part of our lives.
We will always be grateful for everything she has done for our family. Any child lucky enough to be in Carla's care will be loved, supported and given the very best start in life. Thank you, Carla—you'll always hold a special place in our hearts.
My little girl Molly went to Murdina for just over a year and Molly has blossomed under Murdinas care. Murdina is trusted like a member of the family. She is caring patient and a great friend. Your children will be lucky to have her as a childminder. They will go to the park, play with friends and have so much fun.
I can’t recommend Olga enough! She recently looked after my daughters, and they had a fantastic time with her. She is incredibly warm, professional, and trustworthy. My girls are already asking when she’s coming back! Thank you so much, Olga, for taking such great care of them.

Michelle has cared for our children with such kindness, warmth and genuine love that it's difficult to put into words just how grateful we are. She creates a home-from-home environment where children feel safe, valued and free to be themselves. Every child is treated as an individual, and she takes the time to truly understand their personalities, interests and needs.
Her communication with parents has always been excellent, and we've had complete confidence that our children were happy, well cared for and making wonderful memories. Michelle goes above and beyond every single day, providing fun activities, encouragement and endless patience, while giving children the confidence to grow and thrive.
Leaving Michelle is one of the hardest parts of our move. She hasn't just been our childminder – she's become a cherished part of our family's story. We will always be thankful for the love, care and dedication she has shown our children, and we couldn't recommend her more highly. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Michelle caring for their children.
Beth has worked with us as a nanny for our daughter Robin for two years, and our experience of her has been exceptional. She is everything I would hope for in a nanny; supremely warm, kind, present, thoughtful, and imaginative in her time with Robin. She has a natural ability to connect with children, and brings real care to the process every day.
The thing that has made Beth so indispensable to us is the bond she has built with Robin. Robin absolutely loves her, and their relationship feels secure, caring and genuinely joyful. Beth is very attuned to Robin’s personality and needs and takes a thoughtful interest in child development, routines, emotions and the specific things that help Robin feel safe and happy.
She is also lovely to have around as a family. She's calm, punctual, communicative, responsible and considerate. We have always felt very confident leaving Robin in her care. She has good judgement, keeps us well updated, and approaches the role with real dedication.
In short, we love Beth and feel very lucky to have had her as part of Robin’s life. I would absolutely recommend her - I'd be pleased to give a telephone reference to anyone who would like one.

Merril has been absolutely wonderful with my daughter. She is kind, energetic, fun, and instantly made my little girl feel safe and comfortable. My daughter genuinely loves spending time with her, which gives me complete peace of mind.
Her communication is excellent. She is reliable, trustworthy, and always keeps me updated, which I really appreciate as a parent. Merril is also incredibly sensitive and knowledgeable about children with different needs. She takes the time to understand each child as an individual and adapts her approach with patience, warmth, and genuine compassion.I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Merril to any family looking for someone who is not only highly professional but also truly caring. She has been a fantastic support to our family, and I feel incredibly lucky to have found her.
Millie is an absolutely amazing nanny to my little girl. They have the most incredible bond. I was really nervous at first with the transition, but Millie was there supporting my baby and myself. She has helped grow my daughter’s speech development and takes her to local toddler classes to support her social development. All I hear downstairs when I’m working is the two of them laughing or singing together. Millie will forever be apart of my family.
Mai looked after our 12-month old little girl 2 days a week for nearly 2 months. She has a very calm and unflappable nature which we really appreciated and she was always extremely punctual and communicative. Our daughter was very comfortable with her right away and always happy to see her. Mai helped us establish a consistent nap and meals routine and was always proactive in seeking out places to go and different activities in the local neighbourhood. We only stopped using Mai as our nanny as we were moving away for an extended period. We would recommend her to anyone!
Where would I start, my husband and I knew from the minute we stepped in Alberta’s house that she’s the one we’re looking for to look after our grandson.
Very tidy and clean house, dedicated place for kids to play, safe, clean and comfortable.
She’s very nice yet very professional.
I would highly recommend Alberta to anyone looking for 5stars service.
Will definitely go back to Alberta in the very near future.
For the past two years, this wonderful nursery has been so much more than childcare for our family—it has truly been a home away from home for both of my children. From the moment they walked through the door each day, they were surrounded by warmth, love, and genuine care. The nurturing environment gave them the confidence to grow, learn, and thrive at their own pace, with every aspect of their individual needs recognised and supported. The home-cooked meals are exceptional, nutritious, and made with so much care, and the level of personalised attention each child receives is second to none. It is clear that every child is treated as an individual and is genuinely loved and valued. Watching both of my children flourish here has been such a privilege, and I cannot thank Miri and the team enough for the dedication, kindness, and unwavering support they have shown our family. I wholeheartedly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, loving, and truly exceptional environment for their child or children!
I cannot recommend Marta and her team highly enough. My son has been attending since he was just over one years old, and as he now gets ready to leave and start school, it feels like the end of such a special chapter. Our younger daughter also attends and will continue with Marta until she’s ready for school too.
From day one, Marta and the team have provided a warm, safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where both of our children have thrived. They genuinely care about every child as an individual, taking the time to understand their personalities, interests, and developmental needs. It’s clear that the children’s happiness, wellbeing, and progress are always their top priority.
The range of activities they provide is fantastic. Every day seems to bring something new, from creative play and outdoor adventures to educational activities that encourage learning through fun. My children always come home smiling, excited to tell us about what they’ve been doing and what they’ve learnt.
The progress we’ve seen in our son over the years has been incredible. His confidence, independence, social skills, communication, and readiness for school have all developed so much thanks to the support, encouragement, and guidance from Marta and her team.
One thing we particularly love is the mix of different ages. It creates such a lovely atmosphere where the younger children learn from the older ones. The standard of care is exceptional. Communication with parents is excellent, and we always feel informed about our children’s day, development, and any important updates.
Choosing someone to care for your child is one of the biggest decisions you’ll ever make, and we have never once doubted that ours were in the very best hands. Thank you, Marta, and the team, for the love, care, patience, and dedication you’ve shown over the years. You have played such an important part in our children’s early years, and we are incredibly grateful.
We absolutely loved having Georgia as our nanny. She cared for our son over the past two years, from his 2 till 4 yo. Georgia treated him like a member of her own family and filled his days with fun, meaningful experiences and adventures. From hiking, paddle boarding and trips to children's activity centres to baking, crafting and exploring new places, every day was active, engaging and different. She also introduced him to swimming, which he absolutely loves now.
When our son was diagnosed with autism, Georgia's support was invaluable. She embraced and reinforced all aspects of his therapies, including ABA, PECS communication, toilet training and developing self-care skills such as dressing independently, washing, etc. Her patience, positivity and calm nature helped him make progress. I'm especially grateful that she regularly invited our son to have dinner and spend time with her big family, my son absolutely loved those visits, always came back happy.
I can say, Georgia is a truly exceptional nanny. Our son adored her, and so did we.

Writing this review is quite emotional, as it marks the end of a very special chapter in our lives. After three wonderful years, our little one is moving on from your caring hands into the bigger world of school.
Thank you Jolanta for the love, patience, and care you showed every single day. From encouraging her first milestones to helping her explore nature, creating beautiful crafts for special occasions, and making every celebration memorable, you gave her so many happy memories.
As parents, we are proud to see how confident, curious, and kind she has become, and we know you have played a big part in preparing her for this next adventure.
Thank you for being such an important part of our daughter’s early years. We will always look back on this time with gratitude and wish you nothing but happiness and success in the future.

We couldn't recommend Sally highly enough, and we feel so lucky to have found her, Michael and Sophie to look after our daughter.
Our daughter, Millie, joined just after turning one. We had been apprehensive about leaving her with someone else as she was going through a timid phase, but from our first visit we knew we had found the perfect place that was far more appropriate for her than a bigger nursery. We were amazed at the extent to which Sally has transformed her home into such a great place for young children, and her warm, caring nature instantly put to rest any nervousness we had about handing over the care of our daughter. The fact that it is a family run operation with her partner and daughter working alongside her only reinforced it further.
We love hearing what Millie has been up to each day, and the children are always out and about with walks to different parks and playgrounds, and the photos we're sent are a highlight of our evenings. The recent heatwaves really showed how much Sally cares about the children’s wellbeing and she so thoughtfully planned the days and home environment to ensure the children were not only safe but still able to have a great time.
In the three months that Millie has been at Sally’s she has become so much more confident and this is down to the warm, kind nurturing environment created by Sally, Michael and Sophie. They've really made her feel at home in their care and she's developed and grown so much in the last few months - Millie’s been so happy and so have we.
Thank you Sally, Michael and Sophie!

Lauren has been caring for my two boys, aged 4 and 2, one morning a week at our home, and they always look forward to her visits. She arrives with plenty of toys and activities and is wonderfully engaging with them both. Lauren is tidy, makes sure the boys are well fed, and ensures all of their care needs are met. I would happily recommend her, especially if you are looking for someone who is kind, positive, and reliable.
