We have 3 older boys and our little girl was a very unexpected but very wanted surprise! As I'm sure you can imagine, having 3 boys and then a princess made choosing a childcare provider that much harder but Farrah was fantastic from the off. Great at communicating but not pushy - we arranged a visit at a time which suited and had good vibes straight away. The children in her care were happy and smiling and that was the biggest pull for us and we haven't looked back. Farrah and her team are friendly, caring and our daughter is thriving there. They've helped us through weaning and teething, provide great feedback and my daughter loves going. I couldn't recommend Farrah any more highly!

Marcia - London

Marcia has been our nanny for the last 5 years. She's the sole-charge care of our 3 children aged 7, 5 and 3.

Marcia is a very passionate about creating an environment to support the development of our children. She also assisted us with baby-led weaning, sleep training, toilet training and early language development.

Marcia has excellent interpersonal skills and has created a network of like minded individuals in the area who share the same commitment to the children in their care.

Marcia has also been very flexible with us as parents, assisting in balance home and work commitments. My family and I are moving countries which is why our time with Marcia is ending.

Marcia will be an asset to any family and we feel very lucky to have shared the last 5 years with her.

Marcia looked after our son from age 1 until age 5 along with his two cousins who were a similar age and she was completely brilliant: totally reliable, trustworthy, responsive and an excellent communicator. We never worried for one moment about leaving them to go to work, because we knew they were being brilliantly looked after by someone who really cared . We have nothing but fond memories of her time with us. The kids were always happy in her care and she made sure there were always fun and interesting activities for them, whether going out to parks or libraries or singing, crafting, playing engaging games or reading together at home. We trusted her absolutely with them at all times and they all loved her. Her experience and skills were also invaluable to us as new parents. She is an outstanding nanny and we would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone lucky enough to work with her.

My children (x2) were the first ones that Claire looked after and oh my did I give her a challenge! But how she made it look so easy.
I looked at a few other minders but I was looking for a larger space and easy outdoor access as my two could not be inside all day especially in those winter months. Claires cabin is spacious, clean and friendly! The space is set up differently each week so new activities to help stimulate inside and out.
She also took them out daily so they weren’t in the same space and got them to interact with other children, what with mine being siblings I wanted them to not just play with each other. In time we also found out that F was autistic and Claire really helped us on the right path to help get him a speedy diagnosis. She was brilliant as every morning was a struggle saying goodbye and she always found a way to help be calm and distract and make it seem close to our routine so F didn’t feel so anxious.
My children still know where her house is and I think that shows how much of a wonderful time they had whilst there.
They didn’t want to leave a lot of the time!! I had to persuade them home 😄.
Claire would also send photo updates without being too intrusive to your day but enough to make you feel confident of the days going on.

Claire is kind, caring and really goes above and beyond to make you as a parent feel confident. She cares for your children as you would expect them to be in your own home.
I cannot think of a better setting to send your children. I would highly recommend Claire for both full-time and wrap around care. I always saw happy children no matter what age.

We made an arrangement to meet but Roomana did not arrive or even contact us to advise she was not coming. There has been no contact since. Very disappointing experience. :(

Emma - Stourbridge

We have seen a great improvement in our daughters’s confidence since she started seeing Emma. She loves going to see Emma and always enjoys her sessions. This for us is the most valuable thing - our daughter was lacking in self belief making reading practice very difficult at home. From the first day she met Emma she was filled with confidence, she is much more willing to practice and more engaged, which we can thank Emma for.

Emma gives clear feedback and things we can work on with our daughter. She is always helpful in fitting our sessions in and the environment Emma has created is ideal for happy learning.

Zara was amazing with the children, super attentive, engaging and really involved! She will be the best addition to your family!

Kiera - Coulsdon
Reviewed

Kiera has been caring for my son for nearly 10 months now, and he is always so excited to see her. I needed to be able to drop him off at 7am and Kiera was more than happy to facilitate this. She is always so friendly and welcoming even at that time in the morning. Kiera has a great selection of toys for the children to play with and the most amazing garden with a play frame, ride on toys, water tray, sandpit and in the hot weather a paddling pool. She takes the children on trips out to farms, parks, and playgroups. Kiera also provides age appropriate arts and crafts and stimulating activities to help your child develop. During school holidays she also care for my older son who equally loves spending time at Kiera’s. She sends regular updates and pictures of what they have been doing which is lovely. Both boys have been happy and thrieved under her care. Thank you Kiera!

Eve S - Watford
Reviewed

Both my younger sons have attended Eve's house, both different ages and with different wants and needs, but both love spending time there - I have to avoid driving past her road when I can, or tantrums will ensue if they are not going to "Eve's house" that day.
Her loving and caring nature allows children to play and learn in a comfortable and safe environment in which they can thrive. The boys always leave her home with arms full of arts and crafts and wonderful stories of adventures with the friends they have made at "Eve's house".
As a working mother, it means the absolute world to be able to leave them with someone in a home setting where I know they will be cared for by Eve like they are one of her own, so I can concentrate on my job without worry. The progress they have made in their early education and social skills is just a bonus.

Our little girl has been looked looked after by Kiera for about 7 months now, and she absolutely loves her. We have never once struggled with drop offs, and can tell that when she’s there she’s looked after really well. We are updated all throughout the day about what they get up to, all their trips out and activities, meals and naps. We really think our daughter has developed so much since going due to all the stimulation she gets while there. Kiera has been lovely and flexible with us around start dates, and change in days which has been amazingly helpful! Could not ask for better!!

Farjaha has been looking after my son for a few months now. She has been really flexible and reliable, and her assistants (mum and dad) are great too. They have a fantastic garden & great toys, my son always comes home happy and seems to enjoy his time there. I like how responsive she is, I can message her for updates whenever and she always sends me photos and updates on my son.

Karla - Cambridge
Reviewed

This was the first time I had left my child alone with a babysitter however Karla was very quick to build rapport with him in a gentle but friendly way to the point where he didn’t even notice when I left and came back into the room. The next session he was very happy to see her and he felt comfortable to stay with her and play which was very reassuring for me. Karla is also punctual and very professional.

LI Tiny Treasures - Sittingbourne
Reviewed

The providers are lovely people and they are doing an amazing job with my 2 month old. They were very understanding to my situation and my little one's been thriving since starting at LI Tiny Treasures. It givesme peace of mind knowing that my daugher is in safe, capable hands, that will look after her quite well. They keep also keep you updated via the app, so you can see what your little one's been up to. I'm also really grateful for their unsocial hours provision and that their services are quite affordable, which aligns very well with my childcare needs. I would 100% recommend!

Anne - London
Reviewed

As a single mum who was struggling, meeting this family changed my life. The confidence, love, and personal growth that my daughter and I have experienced are truly priceless.

Anne is an amazing woman and mother, and she has poured so much care into the community around her. The support and attention she gives are endless—both to the children and to the parents. All the kids call her “Nana.”

As someone with little family, which can be an overwhelming experience in itself, having my daughter welcomed into this big, loving family has lifted a huge weight off my shoulders. It has also motivated me to be the best mum I can be.

Anne is incredibly creative—the children are always engaged in arts and crafts. She supports them in building healthy relationships with one another and teaches them about boundaries and emotions.

She has a keen eye for anything that could pose a danger and is constantly safeguarding and childproofing everything, whether through her own clever creations or by using the best childproofing equipment available.

All the children at Anne’s are one big, happy family, and I will be forever grateful to be a part of it.

Thank you, Anne, for all the amazing work you do

Shangeetha - Solihull
Reviewed

Our daughter Alisha, who is 3 years old, absolutely loves spending time with Shangeetha. As parents, it’s incredibly reassuring to know she’s in such a warm, structured, and engaging environment. Shangeetha has a wonderful way of balancing fun and learning—every day feels like a new adventure for the kids. Alisha looks forward to going each day, and there hasn’t been a single time she hasn’t wanted to go.
Shangeetha is also so patient and kind, especially when it comes to mealtimes, which we really appreciate since Alisha can be quite fussy with her food. Initially, we planned for Alisha to attend only for a short period, but we were so happy with the care and attention she received that we ended up increasing her hours and days.
One of the things we truly love is the regular updates and daily photo messages—it’s such a joy to see our little one having fun, doing crafts, reading books, and playing happily with other little ones. Overall, we’re incredibly pleased with the care Shangeetha provides and would highly recommend her to any parent looking for a nurturing and dependable childminder.

Linda Brackner - Heanor
Reviewed

From working in a nursery for 6 years and then starting a new career after maternity, I was so worried about who would be looking after my 10 month old. I found Linda and she's incredible, so accommodating, welcoming and just overall lovely. She keeps me updated throughout the day, not only been a supporter for my daughter but also myself too. Asking how I'm getting on in my new job etc! Herself and the team are so calm and understanding of any situation. The food is all homemade, my daughter loves everything Linda gives her! The house is more of a home, clean, tidy and loved.

I couldn't recommend Linda and the team more, thank you for everything you do for us. We wouldn't trust anyone else but you. 🤍

Nanny K seesingsay - Leighton Buzzard

So sad to be saying bye but Kate aka Nanny K is simply amazing, I cannot thank her enough! Our son joined Nanny K’s setting just after he turned 1 and attended for 16 months. As a first time mum at the time, I was super anxious about leaving my son with a stranger but Kate’s kindness, patience, experience and setting reassured me right away. He absolutely enjoyed his time with Nanny K and always looked forward to wanting to press the door bell when we’d arrive. I will miss picking him up and seeing the smile on his face when handing me his artwork 😭

Nanny K provides a warm, safe and educational setting in a fun and spacious environment with access to an incredible garden. My son engaged in countless activities both indoor and out throughout his day, everyday, allowing him to develop different interests and skills including play, personal hygiene, potty training, eating/drinking. What makes Nanny K’s setting even more special and fun is the songs they sing to help them learn and develop life skills. It is really impressive how much my son has learned in what feels like a short time that he was there. He was always so sociable, bubbly and confident when in her care.

Kate is incredibly communicative, super reliable and flexible. She is passionate about what she does and really cares about her mindees. She also provides detailed updates and pictures from over the year which are valuable memories and snapshots of the wonderful activities they do at her setting.

I cannot recommend Nanny K enough. We will miss her! Thank you so so so much for being an excellent childminder and for your wonderful care

Nilam was fantastic with our toddler. She was punctual, friendly, and immediately made a connection with our son. She followed all our instructions carefully, kept us updated while we were away, and left everything tidy. She was also available on short notice, which was a huge help. Would definitely recommend her to other parents.

We have been very lucky to find Jade and Matt. They were our first choice as a childminder for our son. He started with them when he was 11 months old. They have been very supportive and gave us lots of advice and encouragement which we really needed as a first time parents. They are very kind and caring people. Our son really liked the weekly music classes, the walks in the parks and the visits to Brooklands Museum. It was so nice to have updates throughout the day about our Little One.
We are very thankful for you.

Herah - London Borough Of Redbridge

She is very friendly professional lady with amazing skills . went at first when I met her I was like oh my God she was like massive help to me and my child. She was so calm with my child and relaxing. I had booked her for a family wedding and my son who has additional needs she looked after him so well that everybody was so shocked on how well behaved he was.

She really went out her way from me and my child and I was able to actually enjoy a family function without worrying my child and knowing that he’s in safe hands can’t wait to use you in the future. She is very well spoken polite lady. I really can’t thank her enough for her service on the day. I really wish you the best and she deserves it. She works extremely hard.
