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.
We have been so happy with the childminding service Louise provides - our 2 year old daughter settled in really quickly, and always looks forwards to her sessions with Louise. Days are well structured - with planned activities both out & about and at home creating a rich and varied environment for our daughter to develop. Likewise with food - menus are varied and healthy. We thoroughly recommend Louise!
Our little boy has been attending with Dawn for almost a year now and it was the best decision we ever made. It was a very thoughtful decision when choosing a childminder, as we were transitioning from a mainstream nursery and knew that he needed to be in a more attentive and intimate environment for his more reserved and quiet nature. We got very lucky to get a position with Dawn, Lake has come on leaps and bounds in such a short time, his confidence continues to grow and the knowledge and skills he’s coming home with now we know that he will be ready and thrive when it’s time to go to school. It’s a much more homely feel and we are so comfortable with Dawn. She’s full of energy and ready to go everyday, so very passionate and completely submerges into the kids and you can tell she wants to do the best she can. Which is outstanding!
Dawn brings out any potential in terms of educational development and general people skills with Lake. We genuinely feel that this is not just paying for somebody to look after your child, it is an investment into your child’s development and future.
I would highly recommend Dawn to anyone and we will definitely be choosing her again for our second child without a doubt!
Amelia has been looking after my toddler who has quickly become very at ease with her. Whilst getting to know my toddler in my presence she let my toddler lead, giving her space, which I really liked. She's easy to work with, friendly, good straightforward communication and flexible.
Mira has been an absolute godsend for our family. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she had a genuine passion for nurturing children's development. Our little one has been thriving under her care, hitting milestones early and always coming home happy.
The premises are impeccably clean and fully equipped, and she makes sure the kids get plenty of outdoor time at the playground. Their food menu looks delicious and healthy, our little one loves it.
Mira and Ben are always smiling, and it's evident that they truly love our little one. Mira has been a pillar of support for us as first-time parents, offering invaluable advice and guidance along the way.
In short, we couldn't be happier with Mira. She's exceeded our expectations in every way, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to any parent looking for exceptional childcare.
Shona was very caring and lovely with our 2 children, a 4 year old and 1year old. This was the first time they spent the evening with a babysitter, so quite a novelty for them. But Shona felt like family and both of them loved her immediately. She was with us for a short period (5pm to midnight), but they enjoyed it so much that our 4 year told us all about in the morning 😊
Communication was great and very flexible to our schedule and needs!
We would highly reccommend Shona!
If you're traveling to Safron Walden or need a sitter in the area Elle is your person! She's extremely professional, timely, and truly cares for your child. Elle will ask all the right questions in advance to ensure she's fully comfortable with your child's schedule/needs. She made it easy for us to enjoy a family wedding and know that our daughter was in great hands. THANK YOU so much for spending time and caring for our little one, Elle!

Fantastic childminder who goes above and beyond for the little ones. She offers them so many experiences, which differ each week. Beautiful, safe home and near to the beach and park for lots of fun days out.
I would highly recommend Toria. My little one runs in and never wants to leave.
Loretta is simply amazing, she has looked after my son from the age of 1 to 2.5 years old, and she has given him the best care that any child could possibly need. She is immensely attentive to our son’s needs, she keeps us involved with all his daily activities continually throughout the day, and she really has increased his learning and development. My son has eczema and allergies and she has really been sensitive and caring. I love the fact that she takes them out for daily activities, but also encourages learning and free play in a very safe environment. I am so sad to be leaving her as my son has just done so well and he has thrived in so many ways. I could not ask for a better childminder.
Tega takes excellent care of my son and pays attention to the little details of where he’s at with his learning progress his motor skills and I have see huge improvements at home with his communication and listening more. Tega home has an amazing set up it’s like you walked in to a nursery.
Kathryn looked after our 5 month old baby boy over a big wedding weekend at the venue site. The wedding itself was the hottest day of the year and it was a very fancy (child-free) wedding and we were involved in the wedding party so we were a little stressed. But Kathryn made everything to do with our baby a breeze. She was excellent and put us completely at ease with her confidence and competence. Fantastic communication, warm, very organised and a calm presence. Our little boy was very chilled with her. I could not recommend Kathryn more highly.

Aga has a lovely setting. A great outdoor space and lots of toys. My daughter has enjoyed so much going to Aga’s every morning. She has learned and developed a lot.
Aga is very responsible and communication is very easy. My daughter will miss going to Aga. She comes home in such a good mood, with a smile i. Her face telling me how much she loves beeing there everyday and all activities they have done together. Aga has also potty trained both my son and daughter and has been so smooth! I can’t recommend enough! Thank you Aga and team for looking after Lili all these years!!! We will miss you!
Thank you so much for all the support and love you provided us as a family for a whole year. I know it prepared my daughter how to interact in a childcare setting post covid which was very daunting for us whether my girl will adjust and cope with other children. We miss seeing you everyday and I’m sure she will remember you always too. Thank you for shaping her to manage at School.
Just like your name, thank you for a joyous experience.
You diligently looked after my children, creating a safe and nurturing environment. Your attention to detail and clear communication truly impressed me. She engaged my children in enriching activities. They have not stopped talking about it. Thank you.
I was very lucky to find Fatema. She has always been very sweet and welcoming with my 18 months old son. He seems very happy to go to Fatema’s house and play with her and his little friends there. He always does stimulating activities indoor and outdoor. I can appreciate it as I am always updated with pictures and videos of him having fun during the day. She is warm and caring with the children and always very friendly and flexible with the parents. I hope to use again her service if she will have space.
As a single parent was in desperate need of childcare 150 miles from my home in order to attend a 3 day course. Zahra kindly offered to have my daughter and we went to visit beforehand, facilities were very clean with lots of toys and my daughter immediately felt at ease with Zahra and her relaxed friendly environment.
When we attended the first day my 10 month old daughter felt at home straight away and Zahra updated me throughout the day. Everyday my daughter enjoyed, playing and was like she had been there so much longer.
Zahras calm nature and enjoyment of the job shone through I would wholeheartedly recommend this childminder she was an absolute lifesaver ❤️

I have peace of mind while I’m at work because I know my son is being well looked after by Erica. He simply loves her, he smiles when I park to drop him off, and sometimes I have a hard time trying to take him home as he wants to stay more at her house!
She is extremely organised. She plans her day and week in a way that they have plenty of social activities, nature interactions.
She stimulates each kid according to their age and own characteristics by playing, reading, singing and crafting.
She is also concerned about providing balanced meals and a good environment for nap times.
She gives feedback about the child’s development. And keeps me informed about how the day is going throughout messages, videos and pictures.
Erica is a caring, enthusiastic and trustworthy professional. Who is constantly seeking courses and ways to improve herself and her business.
Eugenie and Oliver have been amazing and flexible! Our boys have had such a great experience and are always happy when i collect them. My youngest has developed so much since he started and it has been a joy to see the daily photos of him playing. Thank you so much for being so caring! 😊
