understands the uniqueness in each child in a way that complements equality, individual beliefs, values and principles.

This review is long overdue! Nafi is truly a God send.
She has been looking after my first child for the last 5 years and my second for 6 months, and you really can’t put a price on the comfort in knowing that you’re children are safe and well taken care of. They both absolutely adore her and are always disappointed when mummy does the pick up in place of Nafi. She truly has become part of the family and bonds so deeply with the kids. I’m so grateful for the way she structures their day, interacts and supports their individual development. She’s a hot commodity so don’t mess about! You won’t regret it!

Thank you, Temi, for taking the time to review my practice and for sharing your experience with us and others. I am so grateful for the kind words, and i really appreciate your feedback. You guys are amazing too, and I've loved and still enjoy working with your children ❤️. They're both adorable. Thanks a million 😊 🙏
My 22 month old boy has been with Nafisa for almost 9 months since I went back to work after my maternity leave.
As I told her before, I have got very good vibes when I first read her profile, and I felt more comfortable after visiting her cosy place, which I felt it was a second home for my child rather than a business place.
My child learned many words, he became very sociable, very independent and very relaxed to the point that he wouldn't mind staying over if he had the choice to 😀 .
He was given a lot of love from the whole family, and I used to go work with a lot of peace in mind because I knew that he's safe, having fun, well looked after..
I had to leave Nafisa unfortunately because of some personal circumstances but my advice for mums looking for a good childminder for an auntie to your child that will treat them as family, then Nafisa is the one ❤️

Nafisa looked after my 4-year-old son and he absolutely adored her. He would happily stay with her and I felt like I never had to worry. She is the most loving and caring childminder, like she is caring for her very own child.
Nafisa is also very understanding and catered to our needs as a family. I will always be grateful for how well she understood our needs and prioritised my son’s wellbeing.
Nafisa knows how to engage children in learning through play and always made learning exciting for my son. Her setting includes lots of great educational toys and games for young children.
Thank you Nafisa for enriching my son’s young life with your genuine warmth and compassion.

Our daughter has been with Nafisa since Feb 2019. Prior to going to Nafisa, our daughter had not been looked after by anyone else but us (her parents).
We feel very lucky to have found her. From the initial settling in period to now, we could not have asked for a more dedicated, caring and LOVING childminder for our daughter.
Our daughter has come on leaps and bounds since being with Nafisa. We as parents have learnt so much from Nafisa also.
Nafisa's family are also worth mentioning. Her family are a joy to be around and whenever our daughter is there, we feel and KNOW that she is being showered with love and attention.
In this day and age where you hear horror stories, I have never ever worried about the safety and well being of our daughter. If anything, she has learnt to be even more independent that ever before. She isn't molly cuddled, she is allowed to express herself, and she has ideas of right and wrong instilled into her.
Nafisa is hot property! Don't hang about if you want her services.
You cannot get perfection anywhere, you have to be able to compromise on things (be it nursery, childminder, au pair etc). However, I feel with Nafisa we are close to getting the best.
PS: for what she offers, her price is superb.

My twin boys have been with Nafisa for over a year now. They really enjoy going to her house. Since going there they have come along very well with their educational development learning more phonics and maths as well as fun activities in the home, they have also been on day trips with her in the holidays. What I love about her service is she makes home cooked meals for the boys and caters to their dietary requirements including their wants and needs. Although my children only go part time, Nafisa has been very flexible with the hours and is very accommodating if I need last minute childcare. I am very happy with her service and if I have anymore children they will definitely be coming to Nafisa.

My daughter Raven has been with Nafisa since October, she goes full time , Monday to Friday
For me its not a case of 'me' liking the childminder but more of how Raven likes them. Put it this way, Raven loves Nafisa to bits, during the weekends she will be asking me to go to Nafisa..
Raven has done so well, for a 2 yr old, she is fully potty trained, she can say her ABC's, she can say her full alphabet, count to 20, knows her colors, etc... with the one to one care Nafisa gives all her students the experience makes it extra special for me as i imagine the other parents too. I now appreciate the difference between a nursery and a childminder... Raven has really picked up a lot and loves Nafisa, we couldn't be happier right now. She loves her daily activities and loves the outings they go on. With her now being talking age, she is always excited to tell me what they done for the day:-)
I highly recommend her. Consider her for childminding services you require. Very friendly and approachable. She is also flexible which is a great help or me at the moment.

I would highly recommend Nafisa as a childminder
She is such a caring and friendly person who has the child's best interests at heart
She is very well educated with several diplomas and certificates
She interacts amazingly with my son and helps him with his schoolwork
She has a kind heart and is always willing to help
If your looking for someone who is reliable and trustworthy then Nafisa is definitely the person to contact
She is not only our childminder but I would class her as a family friend for life
Thank you again Nafisa for all your help and support
