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.
Sarah and Andy are honestly brilliant. They offer a home from home environment which enables children to really thrive. They embrace all of the children within their settings differences and ensure all the children are treated with care and respect. They nurture the children like they are their own children and everything they do is with care and consideration.
My daughter started going to Sarah and Andy’s from 11 months old. As a first time mum I was extremely nervous leaving my child at all. She had never been away from me for longer than a few hours but from the minute I had our settling in sessions I knew I had made the right choice. My daughter adjusted to their setting so quickly and developed a secure attachment to both Sarah and Andy, She really did become part of their family and them part of ours.
The way Sarah and Andy have such a passion to provide the best level of care is clear to see. They both supported my daughter to really thrive. They helped me every step of the way from supporting with transitioning from being with me full time, to potty training and then her school nursery. I know the effort and dedication they put into my daughter really helped her with all transitions.
They regularly visit local parks as well as groups and other activities which was lovely and filled my daughters days with fun as well as many learning opportunities. I enjoyed the photo updates of her days. They offer a flexible learning approach which was perfect for my daughter as they embraced her interests and would incorporate the children’s interests into their learning opportunities. My daughter especially loved their garden which is full of age appropriate toys and activities and their music group they would attend.
They do so many different activities from baking to making “keep crafts” which I have kept every one of them. The food they provide is brilliant, my daughter was open to trying so many foods within their setting she originally refused at home. They offer a balanced diet and all snacks and meals were full of variety.
They celebrate different cultures and religious events and supported my daughter’s learning and curiosity through play and activities, she especially enjoyed their Christmas crafts and I treasure the hand prints she made.
It was a very sad day when our daughter left their setting to move onto nursery within a school setting as she had outgrown there setting and was ready for the next step, however due to all their support she adjusted so well and really settled fast. She already has the skills and tools she needed to access her nursery due to all the support they provided for her.
Diana was our full-time, live out nanny for 3 years and we couldn't have wished for a better person to look after our 2 children. She's loving, caring, reliable and very organised. She has a lot of experience with children and she's fantastic with them - including communication, activities/outdoors, feeding and play - both of our daughters adore her.
Diana started working for us when our first daughter was 11 months old, has been with us through the birth of our second daughter and up until the girls were 2 and 4 years old and we moved abroad.
I really enjoyed working with Diana as a parent too. She's very kind and flexible and was always responsive to feedback or requests, so it was very easy to work with her and she fit right into our family.
I'd recommend her for any childcare jobs wholeheartedly.

I highly recommend Titilayo’s services. Initially, it was a challenging process for my daughter, but she’s so happy being there now. I can see a lot of improvement in her since she started with Titilayo.

My daughter started attending to Dee at 2 years old and has been attending for a year and a half now. The care she receives is exceptional. Dee is incredibly kind, patient, and truly dedicated to the children. My daughter has learned so many new things, grown in confidence, and always feels happy and safe in her setting. In half terms my 6 years old is attending as well and she is very happy to go there. The environment is nurturing, well‑organised, and full of opportunities for learning and play. I am very grateful for the wonderful care she provides and highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and loving childminder.
I do not have enough wonderful things to say about Bella and her setting. Our son was 10 months old when I nervously went back to work. It’s a huge thing to leave your child for the first time but I knew as soon as I met Bella that I was leaving him with the warmest, most attentive but also professional care giver. We had the most fantastic experience with Bella and I can truly say she has become a member of our family and her home felt like an extension of ours. Bella truly goes above and beyond and has had such a positive impact on our son (and us)! If Bella has a space available I wholeheartedly recommend you take it! She and her team are the best in London ❤️
Andrea was looking after my son Tytus during half term, he is a SEND child, struggles with transitions, communication and independence. Andrea is very kind, caring and supports children independence. Tytus loved time spent at Andrea's, he found a new friend and was asking is he going back to Andrea soon. Andrea has beautiful full of different toys appropriate room for children to play and explore. I am very cautious about who looks after Tytus due to his medical problems and definitely I can go to work relaxed and reassured that Tytus has so experienced childminder. I Definity would recommend Andrea , also she is very organised regarding to paperwork and send me a lot of pictures of my son how he spent his day. 5/5 starts from me . Huge thank you .
What a great experience.
Anna took care of my daughter when I had to work.
Very understanding, and easy going. She's been great about flexibility. Shes always given me enough notice to take leave. She used messanger for communication and for photos. She takes kids to local toddlers groups so they interact with a range of children.
My child had 1 to 1 attention and had a fantastic time with Anna.
Highly recommend
Elizabeth is warm, friendly, caring tutor who is just amazing! She has high end experience and knows what shes doing. I couldn't think of a better tutor than her. My son has severe ASD, GDD, Non-Verbal and some other needs and shes been doing a great job on tutoring him! She is super patient which is the most important for us because our son can hit anyone around him multiple times and she will still carry on and give plenty breaks when needed.
Elizabeth also works towards my sons EHCP plan and all targets that there is needed.
I couldn't recommend enough! Xx

Bev has been absolutely wonderful with my son. She creates such a warm, safe, and caring environment, and he is always happy and comfortable in her care. It gives me real peace of mind knowing he is with someone so kind and attentive.
She plans lovely activities that support his learning and development while making everything fun and engaging. Communication is always great, and I truly appreciate the care and dedication she shows every day. We feel very lucky to have her.
We are so happy we found Priya as our nanny! She is caring, punctual, and always showed up ready to help. She was flexible with our schedule and proactive in keeping our baby busy with fun activities. She also helped prepare healthy meals for our little one. We highly recommend her to any family!
Our son attends nursery but due to a change in my working arrangements we needed some additional childcare a few times per month. Reena has been a lifesaver - so flexible and helpful. In only his second week with Reena he happily wandered in with no tears, which speaks volumes for her experience working with children and the fun and comforting environment she creates.
Her communication and professionalism are second to none. Her home and garden room are spotless and very well equipped. She has taken our son out to toddler groups which he really enjoyed. Overall very grateful to have found Reena!
We completely understand why Reena is a childminder; she is incredible with our little girl!
Our girl (13 months) has been going to Reena for just over 6 months, and every time we drop her off, she has a huge smile when Reena opens the door.
We chose Reena for her easygoing, warm, and approachable personality, and because she also brings diversity and culture into our little girl's life, allowing her to learn from and experience people from different walks of life. She communicates well with us and sends us lots of photos on days when she is childminding our little girl.
We highly recommend her. She takes her out for walks and to soft play, where she can meet and play with other children, which is great for her social development. Reena is now a big part of our little girl's life. We would consider her an extended part of the family, given how much our little girl adores her.
Thank you for all you do, Reena.
Katie has been an incredible support to our family. She has cared for my twins, both of whom have additional needs, with genuine patience, calmness and understanding. She is naturally warm and friendly, builds trust quickly, and is brilliant at engaging my daughter through creative play ideas and gentle, thoughtful approaches that really help her connect and participate.
Katie is also very reliable — always punctual, communicative, and professional. She keeps me updated clearly and consistently, and she’s been really helpful in supporting observations for Community Paediatrics, particularly around sleep, routines and how the twins present day-to-day.
Katie has been a steady, positive presence in our home and I would highly recommend her to any family, especially those needing someone confident, kind and capable with children who have additional needs.

Rebecca came to help me just after a major operation following an accident. She came every day to tidy the kitchen, do the laundry, and get the family organised. She is incredibly empathetic and kind. I couldn’t have managed without her. She worked around our family and the new puppy with such patience and understanding.
My son has been with Skye for 3 months now and we couldn't be happier. Skye is one of those warm and nurturing people who genuinely love to be around children and it shows. Our little boy is very happy with her and I particularly love that the whole family are involved in playing with and caring for the little ones. Skye plans a wide range of engaging and educational activities and they visit several play groups during the week. I've been able to return to work without any worries thanks to Skye and her lovely family.

Our son started going to Kelly when he was just 10 months old, at the time I had to go back to work. It was a very emotional and difficult period for us. As foreigners, with no family around to support us, finding the right person felt overwhelming. We didn’t just need a childminder — we needed someone we could truly trust.
From day one, Kelly listened to all my worries and concerns. She was patient, understanding and reassuring. She is warm-hearted and genuinely caring, but at the same time a real professional. That balance meant everything to us.
Now our son is 3 years old and he has been thriving in her care. He is happy, confident and secure, and we can clearly see how much he has grown thanks to the safe and nurturing environment she provides.
We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better childminder for our son. Kelly quickly became like family to us. There is no doubt that when we have a second child, they will go to her as well.
