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.
Lilly looks after my twins (2)
Lilly takes them to lovely places and groups that they really enjoy and caters to their individual needs, encourages learning shapes/counting/alphabets ect each activity. Bonus is we as a family get updates regularly on what they have been up too and eaten.
My children ask every day if they are visiting "lillys house" as they love going.
Lilly is very kind and caring person, the whole family are very welcoming and get to know the parents and children invidually, their home is clean/ tidy with lots of activities for the children, aswell and a beautiful garden with equipment for the children to play with.
Would highly recommend.
Rebecca has been looking after my daughter for a couple of years now, and I honestly couldn’t recommend her more highly. She is not only a fantastic childminder but also an amazing person who genuinely cares about the children.
Rebecca goes above and beyond to create a fun, nurturing, and stimulating environment. She regularly takes the children on a variety of outings, giving them opportunities to explore, learn, and develop confidence in new settings. At the same time, she provides a wide range of resources and educational activities that support their learning and development in a really engaging way.
One of the things I value most is the peace of mind she gives me. I always feel completely secure and relaxed when my daughter is with her, knowing she is safe, happy, and well cared for. Rebecca is incredibly reliable, attentive, and professional, and we have absolute confidence in her abilities.
It’s clear that Rebecca truly loves what she does, and that shines through in every aspect of her care. We feel very lucky to have found her.
We are so happy that we chose Cheeky Charlie’s for our little one! Farrah, Jess & Toni are just brilliant. Couldn’t ask for anymore from a childminder. Our daughter is well looked after and always smiling at pick up time. They do some many different activities with the children. Can’t thank them enough for how they look after our daughter!
We have been using this wonderful childminder for almost a year now and we could not be happier with the care our child receives.
She is incredibly trusted, reliable, and attentive — someone we feel completely at ease leaving our child with every single day. The setting is well-equipped with a fantastic range of toys, books, and resources that keep the children engaged, stimulated, and learning in a fun environment.
Most importantly, our child is always content, and happy, which says everything about the warmth and dedication she brings to her work. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any parent looking for outstanding, loving childcare.
Natania was an excellent babysitter. She is so kind, patient, and incredibly reliable. She always arrived on time, which made things so much easier and stress-free. Her calm and caring nature helped create a comfortable environment, and it was clear she genuinely enjoyed spending time with the children. I would highly recommend her to any family looking for someone trustworthy and dependable.
I am extremely happy with the care my Son receives from Milly. she has created a safe, and welcoming environment where he feels truly happy. Milly is reliable and always keeps us informed about his day and activities. He is always well fed and clearly enjoys her food 😃which gives us even more reassurance throughout the day. Most importantly, we have complete peace of mind knowing he is in such capable and caring hands. It’s obvious how much Milly truly cares about the children she looks after, and we feel very lucky to have found her. We would highly recommend her to any parent looking for a trustworthy and nurturing childminder
Julie has looked after my son for over two years and now cares for my daughter as well. She is experienced, friendly, trustworthy, and reliable, which gives great peace of mind as a parent. She provides a warm, home-from-home environment where children feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Julie regularly takes the children out and organises time with other childminders and their children, helping them to socialise and develop. She is also very supportive during the settling-in process and is attentive to each child’s individual needs. I would highly recommend her.

I couldn't recommend highly enough Sally & Michael's childcare. My son has been so happy in Sally & Michael's care, smiling every morning when he comes though the gate to their house, he cannot wait to enter their house. Sally & Michael lead with kindness and patience and this flows through into what they teach the kids, my son has learnt how to share, how to interact with other young children & has been exposed to a wide variety of food.
The set up the kids have access to is amazing and unlike another I have seen, my son is never bored!
The communication between Sally and the parent is fabulous, we love receiving our pictures each day & Sally is incredible flexible and is so understanding to ever changing situations.
Any child that is fortunate enough to be in their care is incredibly lucky. I am unfortunately moving too far out to come to Sally and Michael's every day however I strongly considered doing a 45 min commute each way in order to keep my child in their care as they genuinely care & personalise their approach to every child in their care.
Thank you so much Sally & Michael.

I can’t recommend Sian enough, she’s been absolutely amazing. Sian has been looking after my youngest son since he was 9 months old he’s just turned 1. She the best decision I made, Everyone always said to me with my eldest I will get that feeling when you know someone is right. I instantly got that with Sian, it was a shame I didn’t find her for my eldest son as I never got that right feeling.
Sian is very thoughtful, i love all the arts & crafts they come home with on special occasion. She puts so much effort into the activities. He’s well fed with all her home made meals and snacks. My son has a huge smile on his face as soon as he sees her front door and even bigger smile when he sees Sian. He absolutely loves it. I know he’s in safe hands. I will only ever use Sian. She’s the best!!!
My little girl has additional support needs and has been going to Louise for almost 4 years now.. even when times were tricky Louise was the only person she would go with. She has been so accommodating and built up a lovely relationship with my daughter, encouraging friendships and providing a safe environment and going above and beyond to help out little family... XX
We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Sara. Our son started with her when he was just 7 months old and, honestly, I still remember how nervous I felt. From the very beginning, her welcoming home and gentle manner immediately put my maternal instincts at ease — something that hadn’t happened with other settings we visited. She gave both me and my husband a real sense of trust and reassurance and she has never once let us down.
As first-time parents, we’ve learnt so much from Sara over the years. She’s always happy to share advice or little tips about anything, from weaning and potty training to social development, behavioural skills, to learning how to hold a pencil, her support has been invaluable. We genuinely couldn’t believe our eyes when our son was able to write his own name at just two and a half!
The end-of-term development reports have always been wonderful — detailed and full of photos and real examples. Through them, we even discovered new things about our own child that we hadn’t noticed ourselves. You can really see her previous experience as a teacher in the way she supports the children — there’s such a lovely balance between structure and warmth.
Another thing we really appreciate is how she keeps herself up to date with policies and procedures, always informing us of any updates. It gives us that extra peace of mind knowing everything is done properly and professionally.
Our eldest is now 4 and has grown into such a confident little boy, also thanks to her. We honestly couldn’t be more grateful. In fact, we trust her so much that our second child has now started attending too 😊
Sara is kind, caring, knowledgeable and truly passionate about what she does. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for looking after our children ❤️
My daughter has been at Subha's house for 2 years and is now leaving to join the pre school up the road where her brother goes to school. Subha has been welcoming and kind and has shown love like a family member towards my daughter. She cooks healthy home cooked meals for the children and my daughter is always keen to go in in the morning. She has a wide range of toys and games and has created a wonderful little group of friends within her settling. The children are happy and play together well. When the wether is good they go out to various local playgrounds and always look like they are having a fab time! Subha's house is spotless, she always has time for a chat at the door and parking is also easy just outside so perfect for pick up and drop offs.
My daughter has been really happy throughout the time she has been with Subha and will be sad to leave!
Our daughter has been going to Shelley’s for 10 months now, she loves going and has learnt so much.
The staff are also all really friendly and helpful.

She is a very reliable and caring nanny who creates a calm, warm, and positive environment for our boys. She is attentive, patient, and always ensures they feel safe and supported. Her calm nature and dedication make a big difference in our home, and she has been a wonderful help to our family. We truly appreciate her professionalism and would highly recommend her to any family looking for someone trustworthy and nurturing.
Diane is an absolute superstar.
She regularly looks after my daughter and has been 100% reliable and has often helped me at short notice.
My daughter thinks she is wonderful and I feel completely at ease leaving her in Diane's kind and capable hands.
Not only has Diane helped me with my daughter but she has also helped with our assortment of pets.
She truly is one in a million and would not hesitate in recommending her.
We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful childminder. From the very first meeting, her warm smile and genuine empathy stood out. We visited several others, but her welcoming attitude immediately made us feel that she was the right person for our family.
Our son absolutely loves spending time with her and her children, which speaks volumes about the caring and nurturing environment she creates. It’s clear that she treats every child as if they were her own, with kindness, patience, and attention to their individual needs.
We couldn’t have asked for a better place for our child to grow, learn, and feel safe and happy. Highly recommended.
My little girl started with Sian in October 2025!
From our first visit I could tell how kind and nurturing Sian was and felt so comfortable with my daughter starting with her. You can tell she really treats all the children like they are her own. Sian has a lovely set up and my daughter really enjoys playing with the range or toys and educational activities and being out in the garden.
Sian has been fantastic at helping my daughter with her speech and potty training.
My daughter has tried a range of new foods she would usually not eat at home, so this amazing!
Sian's communication is excellent - she is so accomadating and flexible with my last minute changes. She shares photos and videos of the activities the children do and walks they go on, which is really lovely to see.
I really wish we had found Sian sooner, she really is amazing!

I highly recommend Halima for anyone looking for a caring and reliable childminder. She and her family provide a warm, welcoming environment and wonderful hospitality. My child always feels happy and safe in her care, and I truly appreciate the attention, kindness, and support she offers. If you are looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely dedicated to children’s well-being.
Thank you Halima and your family for giving the love and caring house my son! We miss you so much!
Our son Prince has been with shelley since he was 6 months. He is now 7 years old and still continues to go there after school. He is always so very happy when he attends the setting. I can never fault Shelley and all her staff. Shelley even tries to help me out last minute, as best she could. I am truly greatful to have met shelley. As without her I would not have been able to manage going to work and finding someone to look our son. I now have another baby who is due to join the setting by April. I couldnt be more happy and thrilled. Thank you so much for all your continued support.
