Lili looked after my 4 year old son full-time when we’d just moved to the area, and I’m so glad we found her. Lili was fantastic with him, even when he was distressed at the change in routine due to our move. Lili is patient, thoughtful, and had an amazing ability to persuade my son to try vegetables. I’ve never been able to make him try cucumber, broccoli or peas - but Lili did it (and even sent photographic evidence)! I’m so grateful to her for everything.

Lili looked after my 15-month old girl and 3 year-old boy during the half-term holidays.
I was amazed by how many activities the children took part in - all organised by Lili. This included making pizzas, baking cupcakes, playing with dinosaurs and puzzles, going to the playground, splashing in puddles and the list goes on. She sends regular photos to parents, which are so heart-warming. In each photo my children look so contented and carefree.
Lili makes plenty of fresh, balanced meals. Each day she plans a varied menu and prepares nutritionally balanced dishes, using fresh ingredients and lots of vegetables.
I only wish we lived closer to Lili and could use her more frequently. She is everything I have ever wanted in a childminder/nursery setting. I love the fact that she is a mum, meaning that she has that innate maternal instinct. She also has lots of experience as a nanny and as a child-minder. Above all, she is also incredibly calm and just generally an all-round kind person. Thank you Lili!

Liliana is one of the most amazing people i have met. My two girls both started from 9 months and have enjoyed every day and year spent with Lili. The bond the children develop with Lili and the other children are everything you could ask for. They are busy during the day with activities and park visits. Lili has a great set-up and provides a very safe and creative environment. The children eat well, play well and learn even more.
For us the school run was taken of due to the location to the school.
Lili has helped me bring my children up so far and for that i am forever grateful.
Would highly recommend.
