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.
Beth has been amazing with our daughter. She settled in so quickly and absolutely loves spending the day with Beth.
There’s always something fun going on - whether it’s crafts, playing outside or just having a good laugh, my daughter always comes home happy and full of stories about her day.
We get little updates and pictures regularly which are always so lovely to see.
Our daughter absolutely loves being with Beth and the other children. We feel very lucky to have found Beth and will be sad to see her leave.
My son Noah started going to Rhianne when he turned 9 months and absolutely loves it! Her settling in process is amazing, it allows you to understand her setting more and makes you feel at ease when it’s time to leave your little one all while getting your little one settled and feeling safe as well.
Her organisation and the information she gives is 10/10. She genuinely cares for not just your child but you as a parent too.
My son is now 10 months and since going to Rhianne he has learned how to share toys and more. He always goes there and comes home with a smile on his face and gets so excited when we approach her door.
I would consider Rhianne an outstanding child minder in all aspects.
Beth has been babysitting for us for a few months now and I would really recommend her. She is reliable, fun, flexible and outgoing and is so keen to look after our children the way we would do it. We have a 3 year old and a 9 month old and both have taken very well to her, we always come home to happily sleeping children, and she tidies up after them which is an absolute bonus.
Marcia looked after our first child from the age of ten months and was then our nanny till our younger child was two. She created a happy, incredibly well-organised and stimulating environment for them and my sister’s child, looking after them all beautifully. They would go to groups, to the library, on walks to the park as well as spending time at home doing interesting and creative activities. Marcia was 100% reliable, and always energetic, upbeat and positive. The children all loved her, and we always knew they were in the best possible hands when they were with Marcia. We consider ourselves incredibly lucky that the children spent their early years in her wonderful care. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Renuka has been incredible with our two children. They both settled very quickly within her setting and love going every day. Renuka offers a variety of learning through play, and they come home every time having learnt more and they’ve grown confidence in abundance. Both of our children are dairy intolerant and Renuka has welcomed them and adapted where necessary. We would highly recommend Renuka to anyone who is in need of a childminder - it’s honestly like home from home, very accommodating and ALWAYS smiling. Thank you for welcoming our family into yours Renuka!
Julia looked after my daughter from 9 months to 3 years old and was absolutely fantastic. I felt so content/relaxed knowing my girl was with Julia because it became her home away from home.
Julia is a very calming, gentle and kind person and had that perfect blend of a motherly vibe whilst also being firm; my daughter grew to be a respectful, happy, kind child as a result.
I loved that Julia spent alot of time outside with the kids, in parks and on walks. She always kept us updated with photos. Her house is lovely, spotless and the kids always seemed like they had lots of fun.
I will always be so thankful for Julia and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

Ila's been such a wonderful childminder for our daughter and she's just thrived in her setting. It was the first time we'd left her in the care of someone else which can be a worrying time but Ila maintained great communication and she settled really quickly.
Our 3 year old is always excited to go to Ila's house and we receive regular updates about the adventures that they get up to during the day along with what snacks/ lunch etc they've been having. They get up to such a broad range of things and it's fabulous Ila takes inspiration from what the children talk about/ show an interest in to shape learning and development activities.
We're so grateful we found her and couldn't recommend her services more.

We honestly cannot put into words how grateful we are that Anna came into Mason’s life. From the very beginning, Anna showed the most incredible care, warmth, and dedication - not just as a childminder, but as someone who truly saw and nurtured the unique potential in each child. It was so clear that she cared deeply for every child she looked after, and this personal attention and love had a profound impact on Mason.
Over the 18 wonderful months Mason spent with Anna, his development was nothing short of amazing. His confidence, speech, curiosity, and emotional intelligence blossomed. He learned the importance of love, kindness, and helping others - values that were clearly fostered through Anna’s gentle guidance and the nurturing environment she created. Watching him grow into such a thoughtful, engaged little boy was a joy, and we credit so much of that to Anna’s influence.
Anna brought an incredible blend of experience and heart to her work. Her background as a teacher shone through in the way she structured learning through play, adapted activities to suit each child’s needs, and encouraged a genuine love of learning. Every day Mason came home full of stories, songs, and excitement about what he had done. He absolutely loved going to Anna’s, and it was no surprise - her home was a warm and stimulating environment, filled with toys, books, crafts, and a garden where the children spent lots of meaningful time outdoors.
We especially appreciated the thought and care Anna put into keeping us informed and involved. From the themed learning weeks to the beautiful progress journal and the lovely photos she shared, we always felt connected to Mason’s journey and could see clearly how much he was growing and thriving.
Anna was truly exceptional. Her reliability, passion, and professionalism were unmatched - she never once let us down, and we trusted her completely with Mason’s care and wellbeing. We still wholeheartedly believe she deserves an Outstanding Ofsted rating; in our eyes, she went above and beyond what we could have ever hoped for in a childminder.
Now that Mason has moved on to a larger class, we look back on his time with Anna with immense gratitude and affection. Thank you, Anna, from the bottom of our hearts. You made an incredible difference in Mason’s life, and in ours as parents. We feel so lucky that Mason had the chance to be cared for by someone as special as you.
We first met Helen in 2019 when she started doing wrap around care for our eldest daughter who was then in year 1 at Plumcroft primary school. Helen came highly recommended and from the very start, we had no questions as to why. Helen takes her roles a responsibilities very seriously and has so much experience that she is able to offer advice and support in the area of child development and always goes above and beyond. This became even more the case when our second daughter was a year old and started with Helen. She was born with unexpected complex medical and developmental needs and Helen was prepared to engage with clinicians and professionals to manage day to day medical procedures without question and enabled us to continue to work and to have the space to come to terms with, and manage, our new world of parenting a child with SEND. Helen has continued to challenge and champion our little pocket rocket and is very much part of the ‘team’. Our daughter benefits from Helen’s nurture and uncompromising commitment to supporting her development, and she also benefits from the inclusive environment where care, respect and equality are embedded with all of the children in Helen’s care. We don’t know where we’d be without having Helen, a person we can trust and rely on which is particularly hard for parents like us with a child who is potentially quite vulnerable.
My partner and I have always been extremely grateful that we were lucky enough to find Marcia and that she agreed to work with us as a nanny for our children. She joined us when my first child was 5 months old and stayed with us for about 6 years, until our second child started primary school. After this Marcia continued to babysit for the children on and off for at least 5 more years.
Marcia helped me tremendously with the first baby, especially - her help and advice was really invaluable for me. I always felt one hundred percent confident with Marcia. She is not only a highly trained, knowledgeable and skilled professional carer, she is also warm, generous and loving. She ensured that the children were safe, happy and well fed. She took them to local playgroups, read lots of books with them everyday, played with them, taught them and helped them produce lots of arts and crafts which we still treasure. Marcia is a sociable nanny and her local networks with others meant that the children also made friends with other children of the same age. Marcia was and always will be a very important part of my children's lives.
I can honestly say that Marcia is an outstandingly good nanny that any family would be lucky to employ.
This was the first time we'd left our three-year-old son with a babysitter he didn't already know, so we were a little nervous. Karla made us and our son feel comfortable straight away. She arrived on time, and showed genuine interest in our son. She really knows how to make children comfortable. I will definitely be booking her again!
Thiara recently provided childcare for our little ones during a very important family event, and we honestly couldn't have managed without her! From the moment she arrived, her calm, serene and capable presence was a huge reassurance to us all.
Knowing Thiara was looking after the children allowed the adults to truly relax and enjoy the celebrations, confident that the kids were in the best possible hands. And from what we observed, she was absolutely brilliant with them! The children were all so happy and content throughout the day.
We were particularly impressed with Thiara's ability to keep them entertained and engaged while still allowing them to be part of the special occasion. She even facilitated their exploration of the mosque grounds, which they loved!
Thiara came prepared with drawing materials and loom bands – such a thoughtful touch that kept them happily occupied. She also intuitively knew when a little screen time would be helpful for one of our children, demonstrating her understanding and flexibility.
Thiara truly went above and beyond, and we are incredibly grateful for her help. Her support made a world of difference to our day. We wholeheartedly recommend
Thiara to any family looking for a reliable, caring, and engaging mother's help/nanny!

This place is a second home for my son. It was difficult leaving my 5months old , but Linda made me feel safe and from pictures I could see my son was having an amazing time. If you need someone who cares about the well being and safety of your little one, this is the place tender hearts.
We had the absolute pleasure of having Anna’s care for our baby starting at 8 months old, and I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her. From the very first day, she brought warmth, calmness, and joy into our home, and very quickly became not only our trusted caregiver but a deeply valued part of our family.
She has a natural gift with babies - gentle, patient, and incredibly intuitive. Our little one immediately felt comfortable and safe with her, which as a parent is the greatest relief. She took the time to learn our baby’s personality, routines, and needs, and responded to everything with kindness, attentiveness, and so much love. She was never just “watching” our child - she was actively engaging, teaching, singing, reading, and encouraging exploration in the most nurturing way possible.
Beyond the care itself, she was extremely reliable, punctual, communicative, and professional. She kept us updated with how the day went, meals, naps, funny moments, and challenges - all with honesty and clarity. We always felt informed and connected, even when we were away.
If you’re looking for someone who will treat your child with real love, attention, and care, who will show up every day with a smile and a heart full of patience - look no further. Anna is truly a rare gem, and any family would be lucky to have her.

We've used Shangetha as our childminder for 4 years. She took my son at 12 months old when I went back to work and she often now takes both my 5 and 7 year old during the school holidays. She has always been so kind and lovely with the boys, and this is evident in the fact they prefer going to her over anywhere else in holidays. She is reasonably priced and has always been flexible with us which has been really helpful. I've never had any concerns and her regular photo updates show all the wonderful activities she does.
Renuka’s mission and passion is well and truly all about children. My son joined just before he turned 9 months and to put it simply, he is thriving in every area. He loves it there and even got to experience his first Sports Day at 1.5yrs old🥰. Potty training is a huge transition as any parent will know, and he is being supported so beautifully through this phase. I wouldn’t have been as confident to start potty training if he’d been in a nursery setting. My now 8yo daughter attended previously for a number of school holidays and she loved going there everyday. Reunka is thoughtful, generous, super-woman-calm and intelligent. We are a non-British family and together with her husband + children, Renuka has made us all feel right at home🌺.
I am incredibly happy with the care my 12-month-old received. She was professional, caring, and attentive. I immediately felt at ease knowing my baby was in such capable hands. She maintained a safe and nurturing environment, and it was clear that she genuinely enjoys working with children. I feel confident and reassured every time I leave my little one with her, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the level of care provided.
We’ve had the pleasure of having Margaret as our babysitter, and I can confidently say she’s been absolutely wonderful. She is fantastic with children – kind, patient, and truly engaged. Our kids love spending time with her because she not only takes care of them but also plays with them, reads stories, and keeps them entertained in the best way.
What really stands out is how reliable she is. Margaret always shows up on time, and we’ve never had to worry about last-minute changes or cancellations. She’s someone you can fully trust with your children, which gives great peace of mind.
If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, caring, and genuinely enjoys spending time with kids, I highly recommend Margaret. She’s been a real blessing to our family.
