My daughter started with Maggie when she was just seven months old. I was nervous about leaving her with a stranger, but I was immediately put at ease by Maggie. Maggie is wonderful with her, provides lovely home cooked meals, age appropriate playing and games and my daughter is always happy. It's a long day apart from her at such a young age, but I've never doubted the care and attention she receives at Maggies.

Yinka is an absolutely amazing babysitter, my kids absolutely adore her and she's been exemplary in her management of my children.
Both have additional needs and she's handled them with lots of love, care and patience. Would recommend 100% to anyone in need of help!

Gilly and Crisse really are amazing, they have not just looked after our Nancy for the past 3 years, but have loved, cared and educated her as their own. Every day is filled with happiness, fun and adventure which has absolutely made Nancy who she is today. To say we are thankful and cherish them both, is an under statement and I don't think we can really articulate how amazing we think they are. We are genuinely gutted to have Nancy leave their care and this is a true testament to how much we have valued them looking Nancy, but she is starting reception in September so must happen ha. We cant recommend Gilly Bees enough and any child that joins them is genuinely lucky to be a part of such a wonderful setting. Finding the right people to look after your babies is a tough decision to make but I would say if you choose to send your child to Gilly Bees you will not be disappointed and, like I have been, be prepared to be amazed to see how many different places, experiences and adventures little people can be involved in on a weekly basis. While we are very sad to be leaving Gilly Bees in September, we are thankful for the time Nancy has had with them and been given the best start ❤️

Ruhana is my go to Babysitter. I trust her with my kids. She demonstrated so much care towards my lil ones. For example, my youngest is 1 and has very bad eczema. She put on his creams consistently as instructed and gives him cuddles when he is stressed/unwell and feeds him very well. She has no troubles to put kids to sleep either.

We've had a wonderful experience with Tanya. I really appreciated meeting ahead of the time, to get to know us and the children. On the night, entirely unexpectedly, she made cupcakes with the children, even making icing for them to decorate them with friends the day after. Not what we normally get with an evening babysitter :-) she also cooked a stew for us, wonderful. But most importantly both our kids loved her and we will certainly be using her again!

Ana has been our son’s nanny for over 2 years, since he was almost 1 to just over 3.
She also helped many times with babysitting.
Ana is loving, fun and reliable. We always felt at ease with her and more importantly our son did too!
I would highly recommend her childminding services.🙏

Jenna has been my daughters childminder for 7 months now and she absolutely adores her, we are so lucky to have found Jenna - she is everything I could have wished for and more when looking for a childminder. My daughter’s development has been amazing since attending here and she’s regularly taken out to playgroups and other activities. Jenna goes above and beyond for the children she looks after and my daughter is very happy here, so much so it’s sometimes a battle at pick up time as she doesn’t want to come home! Thank you Jenna for being my child’s safe space
I would not recommend how this girl has behaved. She says she is a professional with disabled children. Came for an interview, hardly took an interest in the job left the gate open to an austistic person, the. Did not even let me know her intention. I wrote to ask if she was interested and she completely ghosted. Jo reply. Came over very selfish snd about her own need. I would not trust her with anyone, at your peril.
So i found Vanna from a local baby group i used to take my little one before i went back to work. What drew me to her, firstly how she looked after the children she was looking after and how friendly and approachable she was.
When my daughter started with her, her house always seems a friendly and a safe space to be in. So would highly recommend
We are incredibly grateful to have found Alejandra! From day one, she has provided exceptional care for our toddler while introducing him to Spanish in a fun and engaging manner.
Her ability to incorporate language learning into daily activities has made it enjoyable for our child, and we’ve already seen significant progress in his Spanish vocabulary. Her warmth, patience, and creativity shine through in everything she does—whether it’s imaginative play, educational activities, or reading bedtime stories.
She is always punctual, reliable, and goes above and beyond to ensure our child's needs are met. It’s clear that she genuinely cares for our little one, which gives us invaluable peace of mind.
I wholeheartedly recommend Alejandra to any family seeking a fantastic caregiver who also enriches their child’s life!
My daughter went with Lisa since she was 18 months. In the time of her being there her my daughter early learning skills where outstanding even suprising me with the things she has cone out with. The difference between Lisa and other childminders is that she doesn't provide the care of a childminder but the care of a mother. As she often say "i couldnt do thing with my kids" or ' i would do this with mine' so would highly recommend Lisa to anyone
We were very fortunate to discover the setting and also have the opportunity to work alongside Dee. We removed our daughter from her previous setting as we did not feel the warmth and care that Dee now provides which has encouraged our daughter to thrive in her setting.
The setting is very accommodating and has been more than flexible in meeting our needs as parents to work but also supporting and developing our child’s education. Our daughter feels nothing but excitement when she knows she is attending the setting and received a very warm welcome.
I strongly recommend the use of this service.
Anna was a full-time nanny for our son, caring for him from 8 months to two years old, and she was absolutely wonderful. She was always so patient and nurturing, it was lovely to see how much he absorbed from their time together.
I could wholeheartedly trust her with everything to do with both of my children. On top of that, she always left our house immaculate for us to come home to, which made such a difference!
We’re really going to miss her but wish her the best of luck with a new family, they will be very lucky to have her!
Gayle looked after our 1 year ols son for over a year and we can't recommend her enough. When he first started going he needed a bit of help settling in but Gayle worked together with us until he felt more at ease. She was lovely with our son and her dog Lola made an awesome playmate. Our son really enjoyed going to Gayle and loved her dog.
She childminds in her own home and has made it ther perfect environment for young ones. She switches up toys every so often so the children don't get bored, and also a mudkitchen in her garden for summer time. Our son who is now at the nursery still mentions Gayle from time to time. I wanted to thank her for all the support that she gave us.
My son has been with Monika since September 2022- 3 days per week and honestly I couldn't recommend her enough she is one special lady! Monika goes above and beyond to support, love and help the children grow and learn new things. We have been supported with various milestones including potty training. Each week the children go on different adventures which include park trips, soft play, to the farm and lots more. We are so grateful for the love and support we have received from Monika (and her family) throughout the years and we will miss her so much when my son will start Pre School in September.
We also use the after school pick up that Monika offers for my daughter who is 7, again she is more than catered for. Lots of great activities during the term time and school holidays.
Monika is a special lady who we appreciate so much x
We called on Sophie quite last minute to babysit our two little ones and I could not have been happier. Sophie was very flexible, friendly and professional in her manner. Even when our little boy woke upset she dealt with it amazingly and had no issues getting him back to bed.
We will 100% be using Sophie again.
I feel incredibly lucky to have found Sanchia to nanny for my daughter. She has been an absolute joy—nurturing, patient, and incredibly attentive to our child’s needs. From engaging activities to ensuring a safe and loving environment, she goes above and beyond.
Sanchia has a natural ability to connect with children, and our daughter absolutely adores her, she always keeps our little one engaged and learning. She’s also reliable, punctual, and great at communicating, which gives me so much peace of mind. Sanchia also is a delight to have around, she was wonderful at helping organize baby cupboards that were cluttered and even helped with cooking amazing food for my daughter!
I highly recommend Sanchia to any family looking for a caring, responsible, and wonderful nanny. She truly feels as part of our family, and we are so grateful for everything she does.

I am very satisfied with Maxine's care for my child. She provides a safe and comfortable environment where my child feels happy and secure.She not only looks after children but also nurture and support them in their development.
Maxine is reliable and flexible, which is very helpful for our working family. My child enjoys his time with Maxine and I always feel confident leaving him in her care.
I would recommend Maxine to other families looking for childcare.
Claire is incredible, she has my 7 year boy around school time and my 2 year old daughter 2 days a week but always willing to help with extra support at the drop of a hat and never any request seems too much. My children feel so loved and safe with Claire and the comfort I have when they are with Claire is what all mummy's dream off. My boy has epilepsy and all worries I have are soften when he is with Claire. She keeps me informed and I see and feel how loved she is by both of my children, the children she childminds are her extended family. Evrey day with Claire is a joy for all children and I am so lucky we found her.
