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.
Christine provides a positive, fun and safe environment for all the children within her care. She is kind and compassionate and this shines through in what she does. Her approach is child centred and child led so she truly nurtures the unique qualities and personalities of every child, while supporting their learning and growth. Christine looked after our daughter from the age of 14 months until she went to school at 4. She was really supportive to us as parents, kept us regularly updated and was flexible when we needed. Christine was very much part of our ‘village’ and we were sad when it was time to move on. We’ll always have fond memories of our daughter’s time at Ccs. Our daughter adored Cc and this allowed her to thrive. We would recommend Christine if you are looking for a childminder in the area!
We love Fathema and are sad to be leaving her so soon. We are only leaving as we are unexpectedly having to move from the area, if only we could take Fathema with us!
Fathema has been a blessing of a childminder. Our daughter went to Fathema from the age of 6 months. As first time parents we felt nervous leaving our daughter but Fathema was friendly, kind and made the process easy. Fathema made our daughter feel safe and comfortable within a few days of settling in and always has a smile on her face when we pick her up.
Our daughter has benefitted from Fathema’s care so much and has developed remarkably since being with her.
We really recommend Fathema as a Childminder and we will miss her!

I highly recommend annmarie as a childminder she is loving, gives reliable care, has excellent communication (photos/diaries). She is constantly doing engaging activities (outings, themes, learning). She has a warm "home-from-home" environment, and positive impact on the child's happiness and development, making parents/ grandparents feel confident and informed, noting specifics like gentle handling, healthy food, and a fun routine. We honestly couldnt have been any happier with Annmarie
Yasmeen is a very hardworking, honest to her work which I observed. I took her services for my daughter Haniya's take care. Her way of welcoming the child and parents is exceptional. The food she serves to kids is always fresh and she keeps updating parents throughout the day as well.
I always feel peace of mind to have her available for my daughter when I have to attend my university.
I'll definitely recommend her to everyone else looking for a childminder in bolton.
Tarnya is a friendly and very helpful person.
During my emergency situation, she kindly supported me by doing the school runs for my son, who happens to be in the same class as her daughter. Burnt Ash Primary School. My son had wonderful time at her place, especially when as his usual nanny fell sick and couldn't come for a week.
Tarnya is extremely organised and gives 100% to the children in her care. She is trustworthy, calm, and well-trained to handle kids of all ages. I'm truly grateful for her support.
I had a wonderful experience with our babysitter! She was punctual, patient, and incredibly kind with my child. She kept my child entertained, followed all instructions perfectly, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I would highly recommend her to any family looking for someone caring and reliable.
Bonnie treats the children she looks after like her own, ive never been happier with a childcare provider. She favours taking the kids out in nature which we really prioritise. She took so much care over helping our little one get warmed up in those initial weeks and now she'd rather live with Bonnie than us some days 🤣! She goes above and beyond to help us with our little one, I cant recommend her enough. Its hard to pick our specifics because each parent and child needs different things but Bonnie has such a kind heart, you cant go wrong with her ❤️ Also, how on earth she keeps her house so clean and tidy is beyond my understanding! Her food offerings are very attentive to healthy eating which is a minefield these days so I appreciate her keeping researching the most up to date advice. Overall, shes a dream xx
I was searching for a safe, nurturing place for my 11-month-old daughter, especially as she was born during the height of COVID and I felt particularly anxious about large nurseries or settings where children were taken out on the school run. Someone recommended the childcare app, and that’s how I discovered Bearsprings. From the very beginning it felt like the perfect fit. One of the things that immediately reassured me was that Bearsprings doesn’t take the children out on the school run — they stay in the setting for the day unless there’s a planned little outing — which made me feel much more comfortable and secure.
My mother and I were immediately impressed by the setting. It felt more like a beautiful, well-organised school than a home childcare setting, with a wonderful outdoor space where the children could play, explore, and learn. Ruby and Ursala are incredibly warm, loving, and kind. Ruby, being a qualified primary school teacher, brings so much knowledge, structure, and care into the children’s learning and development.
The meals are nutritious, home-cooked, and thoughtfully prepared. We were always asked about our specific needs – whether it was the type of milk, nappy cream, or hypoallergenic products – and everything was tailored to suit each child. We truly felt seen, heard, and cared for.
Bearsprings has given us more than childcare – we have gained friends for life. The children who attend are happy, confident, and very intelligent. My daughter started here and thrived, so I naturally enrolled my second daughter too. I even recommended the setting to my sister, and now my niece is part of the Bearsprings family as well.
The caregivers are not only professional, but genuinely loving, generous, and always ready to help, guide, and support. They have been like a second family to me, offering advice, reassurance, and kindness every step of the way.
I highly recommend this childcare setting. It has a lovely, close-knit feel because the children are in a smaller group than you’d find in the bigger nursery settings, which makes it feel very safe and personal. It is nurturing, educational, and full of love. Your child will not only be cared for – they will flourish.
Thank you, Ruby and Ursala of Bearsprings, for everything.
Our son has been with Gloria for the past two years, and the experience has been nothing short of incredible. He has absolutely thrived under her care. From the very beginning, it was clear that he was not just being looked after; he was being loved, nurtured, and genuinely understood.
The bond he has created with Gloria is beyond words. He looks forward to seeing her every day, and the connection they share is truly special. Gloria celebrates every milestone he reaches, no matter how big or small, and she puts her whole heart into helping him grow. She always makes sure he feels included, valued, and confident among all the other children.
Gloria has become so much more than a childminder. She has truly become a part of our family now. Her kindness and care extend far beyond her role. She checks up on us as parents, offers support, and brings warmth and reassurance into our lives. Knowing that our child is with someone who loves him, advocates for him, and genuinely wants to see him thrive brings us incredible peace of mind.
She is truly been sent from God to us! We feel incredibly grateful and blessed to have found her.
Gloria is exceptional, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for someone caring, trustworthy, and deeply committed to every child’s wellbeing.
Sarah was fantastic, taking the time to ensure our girls were happy & comfortable with her. Had no trouble with their bedtime routine and provided updates through the evening.
Was so reassuring as we dont get out much and she slotted in perfectly with my girls sen needs.
Would highly recommend
HadleyGd child care is a welcoming, safe, clean environment where children feel secure and loved like a second home. Acommodates parents' schedules and needs, reliable support system, daily adventures and stimulating play that promotes new skills. Providing nutritious homemade food and managing allergies very diligently, will recommend her to anybody looking for child care.
Aurielle was my 2 year olds key worker at nursery, he absolutely adores her, she is so fantastic with children. We had to move nurseries due to moving house and my son was so sad to leave her behind,but fortunately for us we still see her regularly and every time we do he is overjoyed. I have twins babies and would trust Aurielle with all of my children. It is very special to find someone you can trust with your most precious people in your life.
Thank you Aurielle for always brightening up our little ones day. 🥰

My son spent a year and a half with Sallyann and her wonderful team. They are unlike many other settings where they go above and beyond with trips out to London and local groups, which our son loved. Whilst our son was there, due to their nurturing care, fun activities and education, he thrived and grew in confidence.
Sallyanns care was incredible and our son developed some amazing relationships with the staff, which showed us how comfortable he was there.
Sallyann makes sure the children get healthy home grown cooked food and was always careful when it came to illness within the setting.
We can’t thank Sallyann and her amazing team enough and we will always be grateful for her support. We miss them all.
My daughter came to Tanjina, shy and quite wary of others. Over the year she has been in Tanjina’s care she has absolutely flourished. Tanjina takes the children out to activities every day and has such a warm and welcoming family home. Tanjina pays such great attention to detail in her activities tailoring around development milestones and preparing them for preschool and school. I can not recommend Tanjina enough, we have been so sad to leave her setting as she is the most fantastic childminder.
Yasmeen has been an excellent childminder for our 8-year-old son. Yasmeen made him feel comfortable from day 1 when she met him for the first time. He settled in very quickly at her house. Yasmeen takes very nice care of him throughout the time he is with her. Our son has special needs, and Yasmeen is just perfect for him because she takes care of him and provides the personal attention and care when he is with her. We highly recommend Yasmeen to any parent who is looking for a trusted and caring childminder for their kids. She provides updates and photos throughout the stay, which is very satisfying and reassuring. Highly recommend Yasmeen to anyone and can act as a reference if required.
