This summer I had an opportunity to work in Birmingham (I live in N. Ireland) and I have a 6 year old son. Without Mamta this would NOT have been possible.

I put an ad on this site looking for childminding in the Perry Barr area and added I was looking for accommodation for the summer. Within a day Mamta had answered my ad and had also sorted me out with accommodation to boot! I had never met her before and yet she proved how efficient and caring she was even at this stage.

Obviously moving to a new area is unsettling for a child and my son also had the added hurdle of meeting a new childminder- I had absolutely nothing to worry about as from day one, Mamta was wonderful- she made my son feel at ease and when i picked him up in the evening, he excitedly told me everything he had done at her house during the day. He was very happy and this made me feel relaxed and at ease.

Mamta came and picked my son up every morning before I went to work which was very convenient for me and she was always punctual and went out of her way to accommodate any unexpected issues which may have occured in work if I had to stay on for extra time. Having a childminder like this, someone who is reliable and flexible, makes a working parent's life SO much easier. I knew that with Mamta looking after my son he was in safe, caring hands.

Today is the last day of my son staying at Mamta's before he returns to N. Ireland to go back to school. He is already talking about how much he will miss Mamta and all his wee friends at her house.

Mamta has been a real godsend! She is a lovely, friendly lady and excellent at her job. She is also a great cook! (thanks for all the curries!!!). I cannot recommend Mamta highly enough. We have had a great summer which was only made possible because of Mamta. Thank you SO much Mamta, for everything.
