Zaki has provided care to our daughter who is always excited upon drop off and happy at the end of the day. Her daily updates are informative and summarise the wonderful activities she creates for the children. My daughter plays, sleeps and eats happily with Zaki; we have been lucky to benefit from her fantastic care.

Keya is a lovely, caring experienced childminder.
She made me feel at ease leaving my daughter for the first time. My daughter bonded well with her and never wanted to leave at the end of the day. She provided advice with sleep routines and gave me support with my daughter’s fussy eating habits.
Zeya’s setting is homely and she provides stimulating activities to keep children entertained and busy. She sends daily updates with photo’s of what children are doing during day and activities are both educational and fun. She provides healthy meals and variety of food to cover all dietary requirements. My daughter who is usually very attached to me is happy to spend time with Zeya and always comes out happy and smiley at the end of the day.
