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 couldn't have asked for a better childminder for our little boy. Ramona has looked after him since he was just 11 months old and from the very beginning she made us all feel comfortable and reassured.
He settled far more quickly than we expected, which is a true reflection of how loving, caring and nurturing Ramona and her team are. Every day he has been so happy to go in, he has eaten brilliantly, loved all the activities, and has grown in confidence so much. It has been wonderful to see how much he has thrived in such a warm, fun and caring environment.
As parents, there is no greater comfort than knowing your child is safe, happy and genuinely loved while you're at work, and that's exactly how we've felt every single day.
We are incredibly grateful for everything Ramona and her team have done for our son. Although we're excited for his next chapter at nursery, we're also so sad to be leaving because you've all become such an important part of his early years. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend Ramona to any family looking for exceptional childcare.
Im so happy i chose to send my daughter to cheeky charlies, the home from home setting is exactly what i wanted for her. Farah, toni and jess are amazing and look after my daughter so well, she has not once cried to go there, and comes home so happy. The staff are all genuinely lovely and i cant thank them enough!
Amy is a lovely, kind and amazing childminder. She really cares for the children and has so much patience and is so attentive with them. My little girl absolutely adores her and gets upset when she isn’t with her for the day. She runs up to her and gives her a big cuddle. Highly recommend
Amy has looked after my daughter since before her first birthday, and I honestly couldn’t have wished for a more caring, kind and nurturing childminder.
From the very beginning, Amy has provided a safe, happy and loving environment where my daughter has thrived. Every day when I collect her, she’s smiling, happy and clearly has had a wonderful day, which gives me so much reassurance as a parent.
Amy’s home is full of fun, with plenty of toys, activities and even animals for the children to enjoy. My daughter loves spending time there and has built lovely friendships with the other children Amy cares for. I also love receiving the photos, it’s so special to see all the adventures they’re having together.
The progress my daughter has made since being with Amy has been incredible. Amy has been there to witness so many important milestones, including her first steps and watching her speech develop, and she’s played such an important role in encouraging and supporting that growth. My daughter is constantly learning new things, becoming more confident, and trying new foods.
Knowing my daughter is somewhere she feels safe, loved and excited to go each day is priceless. Amy truly treats the children as if they were her own, and I feel incredibly lucky that she’s been such a big part of my daughter’s early years. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

We were visiting Oxford from the United States for several days and needed a babysitter for our five-year-old daughter for two evenings. We were a bit nervous about this because we've never hired a babysitter during vacation, let alone in a different country. We spoke with Kitty using video chat in advance, and she really put our minds at ease. She has a regular job at a daycare in Oxford and just does some extra babysitting on the side. She shared a lot of documentation that we also appreciated. All communication leading up to the babysitting times was excellent. Kitty arrived on time and was very prepared. She even brought children's books, which was a huge help because we had limited kid supplies in our airbnb. Our daughter warmed to her quickly (they were singing songs together almost right away). Kitty oversaw her dinner, bedtime routine, and going to sleep. Kitty had to deal with some unexpected issues, such as my daughter having a rare bathroom accident (probably due to being off her usual schedule). It was also brutally hot in the airbnb because it was a heat wave and there was inadequate ventilation. We were very sorry about this, but Kitty reassured us it was fine. She handled everything professionally and with a positive attitude. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Kitty. (My daughter also thought it was extremely cool that Kitty's face is on some bus advertisements for the daycare.)
We have an active toddler and an older child with additional needs (ASD and ADHD), Casey does occasional babysitting for us. She has created a strong bond with our eldest daughter who struggles with her social communication and emotional regulation - she bakes with her and engages with creative play. Our daughter really looks forward to time with Casey. Casey is equally at ease with our lively toddler and she has a calm confident energy which is much needed in our house. We think she is brilliant!

I was very skeptical about leaving my little one with anyone but Ilfat has made this transition the smoothest journey for me. She wholeheartedly poured into my little one and that was very reassuring for me, he warmed to her instantly! Would definitely recommend this setting to anyone!
We have had such a wonderful experience with our childminder Enikő. Both of my children attended her setting, and they absolutely loved being there. She is kind, reliable, and truly cares about every child.
She always plans fun and engaging activities that help the children learn and develop while having a great time. Her home is always clean, safe, and welcoming, creating a warm and homely environment where children feel happy and secure.
We are so grateful for everything she has done for our family. She will be greatly missed, and we couldn't recommend her more highly.
Nataly has been with us for a few months now and has been a wonderful addition to our family. She is very easy to be with and it is clear she is someone that my son loves and they have a lovely bond. We selected Nataly because of the amount of experience she has, but we chose her because of her friendly and caring personality, and fortunately she chose us too! She is flexible, as much as she can be, and is assertive at finding age related activities, I know that my son has fun with Nataly and is so excited when she arrives at our home ❤️ Nataly speaks very good English with me, but is employed as a Spanish nanny for my son. In just a few months I have seen his confidence grow from attending playgroups, and from communicating through play and songs in Spanish with Nataly. I am grateful we found her on this platform and that she is the lovely, kind and caring nanny that she is 🙏🏼

Our little boy has developed so much while in Nicki & Stews care, especially over the past six months, when he seems to have really flourished. We cannot thank you enough for all the support, care and encouragement you have given him, from helping with his learning and Makaton when his speech was slightly delayed, to everything you have done to support him through early years.
We are truly grateful, and we know he will miss you all very much when he moves on to school in September.
We couldn’t have wished for a better childminder than Donna. From the very beginning, she made our daughter feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Every day our daughter came home happy and was always excited to go back, which gave us complete peace of mind.
When our daughter started with Donna, she spoke very little English. Thanks to Donna’s patience, kindness, and encouragement, her confidence has grown tremendously and her English has improved so much. She has also learned many new skills and developed both socially and emotionally.
Donna is always warm, approachable, and willing to help. She genuinely cares about every child and creates a nurturing, fun, and stimulating environment where children can thrive.
Donna has become part of our family, and we are incredibly grateful for everything she has done for our daughter. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a caring, trustworthy, and exceptional childminder. We couldn’t have made a better choice. Thank you for everything you’ve done for our daughter ❤️
We couldn't be happier with Subha as our childminder. From the very first day, she made our daughter feel incredibly welcome and safe. Subha is so attentive and nurturing - our daughter absolutely loved going every day and has grown so much in Subha's care. She will miss her dearly, and we’re so grateful for all the support she’s given.
My son who is non verbal autistic is now 4, and has been attending Bea since he was 1. Bea has been a huge part of our lives and we will never forget her place in my son’s life. Forever thankful for the love and care and work she has given my son along with the fabulous assistants.
Taty is very friendly and caring childminder . I drop my three year daughter thrice in a week , she is so happy there she started speaking , taty daycare is fully hygienic good food environment for kids . She made kids do lots of activities take them to library , zoo , park and so many places . I would highly recommend everyone to go,
We cannot recommend Summan and her husband Toqeer highly enough. My son started with them when he was just one, and my daughter attended after school from the age of four. From day one, they created a truly caring, home-from-home environment where both of my children felt happy, safe, and loved.
Summan has a real passion for helping children learn and develop through fun, engaging activities. She helped my daughter learn to read during Reception and encouraged my son to spell his name before he even started school. She puts so much thought and effort into supporting each child's learning and development.
The children are always out and about, attending different playgroups and activities, and Forest School is definitely the highlight of the week. We loved receiving regular photos showing all the exciting things they had been doing, and Summan was always happy to chat and share updates at drop-off and pick-up.
Summan and Toqeer have been such a positive part of our children's lives, and we have always felt confident that they were in the best possible hands. Our youngest starts school in September, and while it's an exciting milestone, we will really miss Summan and Toqeer. They have been a huge part of our family's journey, and we are incredibly grateful for everything they have done for our children.

Moved to the area recently and found Zeya on the childcare app and we are very happy we’ve chosen her. She is very compassionate about childcare, teaching and boundaries which is something that was a struggle for my son. He hasn’t been there long but has adapted very well to a homely loving environment. He is a happy Chap and his days are full of activities

When we met Casey for the first time, our daughter was only 15 months old. It took 10 minutes for them to start playing together as if they were old friends!
Rainy or sunny, scorching hot or freezing cold, with wellies or a sun hat, every morning our daughter leaves the house with a big smile as she knows there are big adventures ahead!!
And every day is different too: Casey is an endless source of activities for children of different ages, especially outdoors! Crafting or cooking at home, splashing in the garden or water parks, singing at the libraries or learning about wildlife in the woods… with care and (lots of) energy Casey is truly nurturing these kids’ growth, and I can’t imagine our daughter in better hands!
