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.
While we have only just started using Lauren and have only had a few settling-in sessions so far, we have been so impressed with just how welcoming she has made her home and the relationship she has already built with our little one.
Lauren has an excellent array of resources and toys to keep him entertained. This also includes her own creative ‘messy’ play ideas our son has enjoyed so much. On top of this, he has also enjoyed outdoor activities in her garden and already a few little excursions after just a couple of weeks.
The most important aspect, of course, is just that kindness and warmth towards our son, which has made him settle in so much quicker than expected. Already, it is a place he is very happy in and excited to go to every week. What more could you ask for?
Leaving your two year old with someone is never easy, but actually we can’t believe just how quickly he has acclimatised and settled and now we have that all-important piece of mind going forward.
Thanks for a fantastic start!

I’m very happy with the care my baby son receives from this childminder. She is kind, patient, loving and always makes him feel safe and happy. Her home is clean, calm and welcoming, and she treats every child like her own.
My son has developed so well in her care and I have complete peace of mind leaving him with her. I truly feel blessed to have found such a wonderful, trustworthy and professional childminder. I highly recommend her to any parent looking for high-quality childcare.
We are thrilled we chose Lauren as our childminder for our youngest son.
Lauren goes above and beyond to organise fantastic activities, outings and experiences for the children.
The space Lauren works in is brilliant, spacious and versatile for the children with lots of different spaces for different types of play and weather.
She is a caring, kind, professional childminder with a wealth of knowledge in the childcare and education sector.
I highly recommend Ren’s Rainbows.
My son and daughter love going to Tracy's. They attened before and after school and in the school holidays. Tracy always has fun days out planned in the holiday which they cant wait to tell me about and I also get to see lots of photos of them having fun. Tracy is friendly, professional, trustworthy and reliable. I would highly recommend Tracy to anyone looking for a childminder.
Lauren is an absolute superstar. She’s been so accommodating to my family’s needs and has been amazing at communicating between myself and my daughter’s dad. Her provision is always sensory forward and my daughter loves the toys she has available too. Would highly recommend!
I could not recommend Laura any more highly. Our two boys were both with her over a number of years and thrived under her care. I was always astounded at how much time and attention Laura and Steph gave to every child in their care, they both really saw and looked after each of our (very different!) boys as individuals. Laura’s communication is excellent, the environment is incredibly safe and enriching with lots of opportunities to get out and about and both boys loved every minute they spent with Laura and Steph over the years. One thing in particular worth noting: both our boys had allergies and/or intolerances and Laura was absolutely brilliant at coordinating with us about things they could and couldn’t have, and always making sure they weren’t left out of things.
Tracy has been caring for my son since he was 6 months old (he's 10 this year), from full days, to school runs and beyond! She is a genuinely caring lady who wants the best for all the children under her care.
Tracy helped with my sons diagnosis for ASD and her knowledge helped us massively. My son loves going to Tracy's house and I can only thank her for all the years of amazing care she's provided.
Emily is wonderful. My son has complex needs and can be aggressive with his PDA. There are not many people who can understand him and know how to handle it. Emily has such a calm, loving, accepting nature. We all instantly took to her including my son. I am very sad I am unable to take her on due to the unusual hours I am after.

we are so grateful for the care our child has received. jodie is kind, reliable, and incredibly nurturing, and our child has thrived in her care. Communication is always great, and we feel completely at ease knowing our child is happy and well looked after. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to other families.
Tracy has been my son's childminder for nearly 10 years and has been a rock in his life throughout. She is knowledgeable and caring in all her duties, and goes above and beyond to ensure he has the best possible care.
During this time, my son was diagnosed with Autism and ADHD, creating new challenges for him as he learnt to navigate his diagnosis. Tracy has been extremely supportive, giving attention where required and adapting to aide him in his growth through this journey.
She is an all-round fantastic professional who I have always trusted with the care of my son.
We cannot recommend Sherife and her team highly enough. After our son struggled to settle at nursery, we were so relieved to find such a warm, nurturing, and supportive environment. From the very beginning, they made him feel completely comfortable, safe, and truly cared for.
The progress he made while in their care has been incredible. His English improved significantly, his confidence grew day by day, and he began eating a much wider variety of foods than ever before. Most importantly, he became a happy, secure, and confident child who is now fully ready to start big school.
Leaving was genuinely heartbreaking — we were devastated to say goodbye. The care, patience, and dedication shown to our son made such a lasting impact on his development and happiness. We will always be incredibly grateful for everything they have done for him and would recommend them without hesitation to any parent looking for exceptional childcare.
Our daughter has been going to Laura since she was 18 months old, and choosing her as our childminder has been one of the best decisions we’ve made. From the very beginning, she has been made to feel safe, secure and truly cared for. She is always so happy to be there and is completely comfortable in the environment.
Over time, we’ve seen such a noticeable growth in her confidence. She’s become more independent, sociable and eager to try new things, which we truly believe is down to the nurturing, supportive care she receives. She often comes home singing the songs she has learned during the day, which is such a lovely reflection of how engaged and happy she is there. We also love reading about what she has been up to on the Baby Days App and receiving photos of her day. This gives us real reassurance and helps us feel involved in her day.
Tracy has been my sons childminder since he was 6 months old (currently 8 years old). She has a wonderful house and space for kids of all ages and my son loves going. She is a very productive childminder and I feel she has taught my son alot as he's grew up. Shes flexible if needed, always communicative and very adaptable to children's needs.
We feel incredibly lucky to have had Niki care for our daughter on Thursdays, and honestly don’t know how we would have managed without her.
From the very beginning, Niki was professional, calm and reassuring, exactly what you hope for when trusting someone with your child. Her communication was excellent throughout: clear, thoughtful and always proactive, which gave us real peace of mind. She was also flexible and accommodating when we needed it, which made a huge difference to us as a family.
Most importantly, our daughter absolutely adored Niki. She quickly grew excited for their visits and formed a lovely bond not only with Niki but also with her son. Seeing how happy and settled our child was in her care was the greatest reassurance we could ask for. It was clear that Niki creates a warm, safe and nurturing environment where children feel secure and valued.
Niki is a fountain of knowledge when it comes to childcare and child development, and that experience shines through in everything she does. She is attentive, caring and instinctively knows how to support children at each stage, always putting their wellbeing first. We always felt our daughter was in the safest of hands.
We would wholeheartedly recommend Niki to any family looking for a nanny. She is reliable, kind, highly experienced and truly wonderful at what she does. We are enormously grateful to her and would like to take this opportunity to thank her for the care, support and reassurance she gave us, and our daughter.

My son’s nursery closed quite unexpectedly and I had to find an alternative care due to being a full time working mum. On the first visit we were shown around the whole setting and my son was an awe of the playrooms. She was very welcoming and accommodating to my hours of work.
My son will be beginning the journey for ASD assessment and he has needs that needed to be catered to. I provided them with a booklet about my son with his dislikes, likes, favourite foods, etc and they were more than happy to cater to these.
My son loves puzzles, it calms him and regulates him, they let him freely play with puzzles and he always came home so happy that he got to do that.
Every time I picked up or dropped off there was always a warm and welcoming atmosphere at the door.
I loved all the services which were provided (half term care, summer holidays care, school drop offs) and I’m so gutted that the school pick ups have stopped as we would have stayed for much longer!
I can’t recommend Little Angels Nursery enough. Khadija and Amina take such amazing care of my son and always go above and beyond for the children. They reassure me daily by sending pictures and updates, which really puts my mind at ease.
They take the children out to parks and libraries, do drop-offs for my son, and engage them in singing, learning, and developing different skills through play. They are incredibly caring, kind, and dedicated, and it truly shows in everything they do.
My son absolutely loves it there, and I’m so grateful for the love and attention he receives. Little Angels really feels like a second home for your children. I highly recommend them.
Words can’t express our gratitude to Kate and her team.
After a really bad experience with a previous nursery we were so worried about everything and wasn’t sure how we could restore our trust in childcare until we met Kate!
From the moment we were welcomed into her beautiful home we knew we had to make this work for our daughter. So personable, hardworking, normal and confident in what she has to offer.
The care, environment and organisation was so apparent with lots of happy children.
The monthly plans for learning, activities, outings and development are so well put together with a clear structure. We know our daughter is safe - what more could we ask for.
Most importantly we know we made the right decision because our daughter is shining with confidence and developing weekly, comes home with a smile and visually looks cared for.
We wholeheartedly recommend Kate to any parent looking for a truly wonderful place for their child.
Thank you x
Our daughter joined Kate and since turning two she spends most of her time at the hut.
We are becoming more familiar with the wider team of staff who are so kind, caring and made the new drop offs less daunting for us as parents.
It’s noticeable the staff want to be there to help contribute to the development of the children which goes a long way! Our daughter is always so chuffed when the staff do her hair or she gets a sticker - the little acts of kindness go along way.
The activities and trips are amazing. They are thoughtful, engaging, and well-planned, supporting both learning and play.
We also love the opportunity of the outdoor space the children can explore, have fun and get dirty!
Our daughter’s growth and eating habits have come on leaps and bounds from her time at the hut - we can’t wait for when she can tell us more of what she gets up to!
Thank you to you all x
We are extremely happy with the care Tudor receives. He settled in very well and always comes home happy and relaxed. The environment is warm, safe and stimulating, and communication has always been excellent. We really appreciate the patience, kindness and professionalism shown every day. We would highly recommend to any parent looking for high-quality childcare.
Jessica is absolutely amazing!
She is kind, patience, nurturing and just overall amazing.
She offers my twins the best care, providing them with so many different ways of learning.
Seeing how far my twins have come since using Jessica's services is outstanding!
They love going to Jessica's and always come home smiling and amaze me with the skills they have picked up!
We are extremely lucky to have Jessica as our childminder and we would definitely recommend!
