The best Childminders in the area! Honestly, so impressed with everything they do, from their home cooked meals, to the activities they do with the children! My daughter started attending at 9 months and I cannot thank Lindsey and the team enough for all they do!
My little girl, reaches out for the staff when we arrive and is always so excited for nursery. I looked around for the perfect setting, for 3 months before finding this one and this one ticks all the boxes and are outstanding in all they do!
The setting is beautiful, all freshly decorated and modern. The resources give the environment a true home from home feel and are very interactive for all ages.
Thank you Cheeky Chops for helping my daughter grow and learn! Couldn’t recommend you more!

We are really happy with Lindsey’s childminding services.
Each week there are great, well planned activities available for all the children. They use amazing resources, all under different themes.
There is always a wide variety of food available for the children to enjoy.
Great communication directly to the child minders, via the app or on social media.
All the staff are very friendly and genuinely care for the children.
Our girls have attended for almost 2 years now and they enjoy going every week.

I highly recommend this nursery
The staff are extremely fun, friendly, and genuine .They allow the kids to develop in their own way nurturing and encouraging their individuality.
They offer a wide array of activities, and a selection of wholesome home cooked Food.
My son throughly enjoys going to Cheaky Chops. He loves all staff members and has made some wonderful friends. He is truly comfortable and happy in the setting, week in week out.
It’s difficult as a parent returning to work, but knowing my son is in a safe environment, will be well looked after and is happy, makes the transition that much easier.

When I had to choose childcare for my son, my first choose was Cheeky Chops Childminding, Lindsey and her team. This is back at the days when my son was only 6 months old. Now he is 32 months, and he absolutely enjoying his days fulled with enriching activities.
I am pleased with all the engaging learning activities from arts and crafts to educational games.
Communication is excellent, regular updates for the child's day, meals and nap.
I am defInitely recommend Lindsey and all the girls (Cheeky Chops Childminder Services).

I was nervous that my twin boys will take long to settle, however I was surprised to see them happy and settled within the first 2 days. The team is really amazing and welcoming, and my boys love it and I 100% recommend Cheecky Chops!

I have both my two children being looked after by Lindsey and her fantastic team. After their first settling in afternoon, my 3 year old daughter could not wait to go back. There have been no issues from the first day and both my children really enjoy going to cheeky chops!
There are a fantastic range of creative toys (play kitchen etc) and so many books for the children to play and learn with. I am so pleased I have been able to arrange childcare with Lindsey. Lindsey responds to my messages so quickly and she is so approachable. Highly recommend!

I found Cheeky Chops through doing an online research of Childminders near me, and after reading through the amazing reviews, I decided to contact Lindsay and put my child in her care.The reviews are absolutely spot on, Lindsay and the team are very professional,warm ,friendly and they took care of my son with love. My son settled very quickly at Cheeky Chops and love going there.
My son’s communication skills improved a lot.
Lindsay send lots of pictures throughout the day of what my son has been up to for the day and gives me an insight of what he likes to do and the activities he does there. I highly recommend Cheeky Chops, your kids will love Lindsay and the team

I was so nervous going back to work after having my little girl. But lindsey was absolutely amazing and so supportive. I started at 2 days a week and had varied days and as soon as I was able to have extra days at work she helped me and put me in contact with her friend for when she was away. So friendly and her team always so nice and chatty.
Food and activities are always varied and my girl is so happy and so much of an improvement since being with lindsey and the team

This review is long overdue but my little one Sami, who was 3-4 at the time, was looked after by Lindsey for almost a year and he absolutely loved it. Lindsey genuinely cares about the kids she takes care of and has left a lasting memory with my son. He still speaks fondly of his time with her and the other childminders she worked with. I work in the NHS and as you can imagine, shift times are all over the place and can change last minute. Lindsey was always very accommodating with my shift patterns. As Muslims, we eat halal and this was always catered to without any issues at all. I am super grateful Lindsey was able to take care of Sami so well and could not recommend her services highly enough!

Choosing childcare can be a daunting process but Lindsey makes it so much easier. When I drop my son off in the mornings I know that he is going to have fun playing in a safe and clean environment..... and be well fed! He even has a nap which just shows how comfortable he is in Lindsey’s company.
Thank you for looking after my son so thoughtfully and for giving me peace of mind.

My 13 month old daughter loves attending Cheeky Chops (she has been there since she was 7 months) and being cared for by Lindsey and the team. She’s really grown in confidence and is hitting her development targets, and loves trying new foods and activities thanks to what she gets up to at daycare. She is always excited when that doorbell goes as she knows it means she’s about to be picked up! Other children I met when looking around were super polite to myself and my daughter and were having a great time. Lindsay is a professional, polite and friendly no-nonsense Yorkshirewoman, her communication is excellent and her childcare setting is bright, clean, fun and safe, and includes an outdoor space.

Rosie has been with Lindsey since she was just one, and I can truly say I trust her with my little girl, and Rosie loves her. Lindsey’s environment is brilliant, with a great garden and really good setting with lots of educational toys, and she really listens to what we want with Rosie. Couldn’t be happier.

My son is always happy when I pick him up and his belly full with a proper home cooked meal. Thank you Lindsey x

Lindsey is a bubbly, fun and kind person and would definitely recommend her. Our little boy have enjoyed his time with her and all other kids she looks after. He had so much fun with Lindsey. She is flexible when it comes to hours and days. She makes sure that kids are always havaing fun playing, going to park or soft play. She puts her heart out when it comes to helping others. It was a great pleasure working with Lindsey.

Thank you so much for the review.
My experience with Lindsey was an absolute pleasure and the only reason she still isn't my minder is due to a change in circumstances. She was my first all day nanny and from the get go I felt comfortable leaving my son with her. She explained the whole process to me and reassured me if I had any questions or concerns she would be happy to help and when ever I did I was left very satissfied with her response.
She was very flexible with me when needed and did her best to accommodate any special requirements within her control, her personality is second to none and you can see her passion and professionalism whenever you drop off or pick up the little one.
If you have the opportunity to work with Lindsey I would highly recommend her and am sure you will be equally as happy as I was from her service.

I'm currently using Lindsey who runs Cheeky Chops Childminding Services in Hornchurch. Since contacting Lindsey for availability I knew straight away that she was perfect for my children. She is reliable, fun, personable, friendly and my children love her. They ask every day if the are going to Lindsey's house because they have so much fun. Im so relieved to have a childminder that I trust and that I can happily leave my children with and know that they will be treated like her own. Thank you!

Lindsey is very reliable and flexible. Bonus that she's a lovely person too! Would recommend Lindsey to you.

I would concur with everyone really, Lindsey has really helped me as I have a particularly busy job and just wanted that assurance that my children were picked up and ok until I got back home. My children are happy, and I know this is a fact as my son quite articulate and would tell me if he was not a happy. in summary - she is trustworthy. Which is important to me.

Lindsey has been looking after my youngest daughter two days a week from 9am-3pm since July 2017 (starting when LO was 6 months old). She also has my 3 year old daughter at the same time during the school holidays. I was initially very nervous about going back to work but Lindsey soon felt like a member of the family and put me at ease. Both children really like her and the elder one always talks about what she and Lindsey got up to in the days that they're together. Lindsey will spend time doing arts and crafts, baking cakes, or taking them to playgroups or soft play. She is very caring to the children as well as being very practical and helpful - when she arrives at our house and I am in a rush she will get stuck in and clean up the breakfast stuff and get the kids ready etc. I wish she could come over everyday even when I'm not working!

Lindsey has been a lifesaver to our family. She's been caring for our little girl since September. Lindsey looks after her in the morning and evening, before and after nursery and we couldn't be happier. Ellie has become so attached to Lindsey and her 2 little boys, she asks for them every morning, and talks about them all weekend! Lindsey has not only been wonderful in caring for our daughter but she's been excellent at relaying messages to nursery on our behalf. She takes everything I say on board and passes any feedback and messages to the nursery. In the evening, Lindsey always takes the time to tell me how Ellie's been throughout the day at nursery and at hers. Being a mum of small children Lindsey completely understands my concerns and worries (no matter how small they are) and always offers support and advice. I can leave my daughter with Lindsey in the morning and go to work without any stress, knowing she is being cared for properly. Lindsey has a great personality, is open and honest. Lindsey even takes my daughter out for dinner with her family sometimes. We could not recommend Lindsey enough, and would not hesitate to provide a personal reference for Lindsey

Thank you so much for the review, it's really nice of you x
Lindsey has been working for us since August 2015 as the sole carer (nanny) to our then 5-month old son Joseph. Since hiring her we have built a solid relationship and she has become a trusted member of our family. She cares for Joey as if he was her own and I completely trust her with his daily care and well-being. She usually works for us 5-days per week from 9-3pm and takes Joey out almost every day either to organized activities (playgroup, baby sensory class etc) or locally to the park etc. He is a happy, sociable and easygoing little boy and she has greatly contributed to this by always putting his needs first and ensuring that he feels safe and secure. Lindsey is a friendly person, easy to get along with and is punctual and reliable. I would have no hesitation recommending her to another family. As Joey is now 13 months old, from July we will begin putting him in nursery 2 days per week for July-August and then increasing to 3-days from September. The planned days are Wed-Fri at this stage.

Lindsey looked after our little boy for a few weeks whilst i did some pre booked work whilst on maternity leave. She was lovely with jack, who has special medical needs, making me having to work whilst he was tiny even easier, and helped out with other jobs, to make life easier for me at a difficult time.

Lindsey did the school runs for me for 1 year and looked after my 9 yr old daughter as a childminder when required. She was very professional, punctual, dedicated and really warm with my whole family. I never had to worry about the safety or comfort of my child regarding her driving and she got along greatly with the school mums as well. It's been a great experience and I will not hesitate to hire her again.

Lindsey is currently looking after my baby girl since she was 7 months old(now 14mths)She is totally dedicated to her job and shows nothing but care and love for our baby girl,as well as safety and well being. Ella loves to spend time with Lindsey and her family! I do not have to worry about any aspects of my children care while she is with Lindsey, as I know she is in more than capable hands. I feel at ease leaving the children while I go to work. I can do nothing but speak highly of Lindsey and her family and would not hesitate to recommend any prospective parent looking for care. She was flexible with times etc and helped us in any way she possibly could when our work hours were over lapping. Thank you xx

Lindsey took care of my children for many years and I would have no hesitations in recommending her services to anyone. My son Daniel has Down's syndrome and has had very challenging behaviour at times. Lindsey was always very patient and loving to him and he now absolutely loves her and her husband. My daughter Abbie has epilepsy and Lindsey was always very calm and collected if Abbie had a seizure. Lindsey treats my children just the same as everyone else which is important to me. She is very competent, reliable and trustworthy with a lovely affectionate, fun personality. I'm just sorry she has moved because someone like Lindsey, who you can trust to take care of your children is hard to find.
