Luiza looked after my little girl so well and during the pandemic. Despite everything that was going on around us; Luiza continued to nuture and support Sophia in a way like nothing was happening.
Luiza is extremely organised, professional and i felt always listened to us as parents. Sophia had so many new and exciting experiences with Luiza , she really thrived in her setting.
Luiza's dinners were so yummy! I liked her understanding of food and its role with the developing child. The setting was safe and spacious, it was always nice and clean. Luiza took Sophia to settings where she could interact with other children and she was very observant always communicating her progress with us.
Luiza has an extremely good knowledge in relation to the developing child and aids to support children to progress. Luiza had a really good range of children toys, arts, crafts and learning aids.
Both my children went to Luiza for their early years and I know for a fact Luiza contributed to where they are today and for that I will be forever grateful. The girls always talk about Luiza, they will never forget her.

Hi,

We met Luiza when I was about to return to work from Maternity leave after I had spent a whole year off at home with my first child. As daunting as that was, we were quickly put at ease by Luiza's skills and expertise with children. She is very understanding and supportive, so my child settled very quickly at her setting. Luiza provided us with peace of mind from day 1. She is very organised, her days with the children are well structured and she is always on top of everyday tasks. Luiza kept us updated about our little one's day in constant communication and through the use of a child daily planner. Her passion for children and professionalism are noticeable from the first moment. Luiza is flexible and always willing to adapt to our needs, adjusting to unforeseeable changes which sometimes happened last minute. We were very impressed with how observant Luiza is and how quickly she got to know my children. I often felt very comfortable discussing habits, patterns and changes in my child's development and I must say that as a first mum, Luiza was always great at providing suggestions, giving advice (as a mother that she is) and helping with the implementation of new routines. Luiza has always been patient and loving when teaching my children about boundaries and establishing basic rules. My children have had so much fun during their days at Luiza's setting, she has the week well planned with a range of activities both indoor and elsewhere, attending toddler sessions and other fun activities at the local park. Luiza provides a varied weekly menu which consists of a range of different healthy meals containing a range of vegetables, fruits etc.
Luiza was very supportive during potty training stage. She always works in partnership with parents for the child's best interest. After such a great experience we had with Luiza looking after our first child, we did not hesitate in booking a place at her setting for my second child a few years later.
Both my children love Luiza as if she was part of our family.
I highly recommend Luiza as she is simply the best!

I don’t even know where to begin, Luiza is just simply amazing. Taís has been with Luiza since April 2023. The growth and development that Taís has demonstrated is just amazing and that’s all thanks to Luizas reinforcement. Communication is great!! Luiza sends pictures and constantly updating me whether it be about a good day or bad day. Luiza is so caring and treats her the children in her care as her own. She also has an amazing family, which just makes everything easier. Taís loves Luizas older son and daughter!!! Words are not enough to express how grateful and thankful i am for Luizas help and support throughout the last few months. I would highly recommend xx

Luiza has been looking after our little girl for almost 2 years, and we’re so glad we found her. Being first time parents, we were very anxious about finding the right person and setting for our daughter when I returned to work. Luiza has been better than we could have hoped for, she takes the children out every day to different parks, playgroups and meet ups with other childminders, and has a lovely home with a playroom, lots of toys and craft activities (we have a wall full of artwork she’s brought home). Her family are also great with the children, so it really feels like a home from home environment.

Our daughter is very sporty, chatty and outgoing, and Luiza’s care and the variety of activities she provides has definitely played a big factor in this. She gives attention to the children’s development, so our daughter has learnt a lot during her time with her, including developing her language skills, learning colours, numbers etc. Luiza suggested when our child was ready for toilet training and offered us advice with this as well as taking a lead training her. Luiza is also good at teaching the children the right behaviours and they know where boundaries are.

On top of what she’s done for our daughter, she’s also helped us as first time parents offering advice when requested, and knows lots of toddler friendly places to go or activities to try out in the local area. She has been extremely reliable and never let us down, and gives more than enough notice of any planned holidays. We’ll miss seeing her each day, but we’re really hoping Luiza will have availability to look after our little boy when my current maternity leave ends, and I know she’s already cared for many siblings, which shows just how much many families love her.

We were planning to see quite a few childminders before we made our mind up but once we met Luiza in her home we were sold, she looked after my daughter for three years and she was brilliant.
Her home where she works is warm, comfortable and safe for children, has a lovely play room that all the children loved and Luiza's family are all lovely and treat the children being cared for like a part of the family.
Luiza provides nutritious meals that my daughter thoroughly enjoyed (she still won't eat my chilli con carne) and is understanding to the children's eating habits without being a pushover.
Her positive influence on my daughter is impossible to exaggerate and we still use her name as a correcting tool on my daughters' behaviour (what would Luiza say if you were behaving like this?)
My daughter wasn't just watched and looked after, she was listened to, nurtured, trusted, protected, taught and loved by an amazing woman who my whole family miss.
I cannot recommend Luiza enough and I would immediately put any of my family or friends in touch with her should they find the need for childcare.
As a first time father I was very particular and nervous about leaving my daughter with anyone but felt totally at ease knowing she was in the care of such a loving, decent, experienced and honest woman.
We really do LOVE Luiza and are glad she was a part of our lives so if you're looking for a childminder do yourself a favour!......She's great.

Luiza is a phenomenal child minder and our daughter has been extremely happy for the last two years in her care. She has created a happy, friendly home from home in which our daughter has thrived and has embraced the transition to nursery as a result.

Luiza has provided our daughter with an excellent foundation for the future and we can’t thank her, or recommend her enough.

Wonderful experience with Luiza as childminder, she's been looking after our 2 years old daughter, with value and professional services, I would like to recommend her services.

Luiza was able to devellop and raised our daughter with loves and guidances.
She was also capable to respect my daughter food supplement diary.
She has a very clean garden and play room available for kids at home.

Looking forward to work with Luiza for the next one...

Regards,
Kams

Luiza has been childminding my son 2.5 years. She looks after him for 3 days each week.
We have been extremely happy with the care my son has received, and the great progress he has made . Luiza’s home is always welcoming, clean and well organised and my son has great fun playing with all the toys available and with the other children in her care. Her family is amazing and my son loves her children.
She provides a wide, fun range of activities including plenty of outdoor exercise, also crafting, painting.
The main meals and snack she provides for the children are healthy.
The most important for us was that my son has been treated as part of her family and we are very grateful.
Luiza is kind, caring, trustworthy and true professional.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Luiza to any parents considering her. In our view you will not find better childminder! If we need childcare services in the future we would definitely not hesitate contact her.

We have a 2.5yr old little boy and he has been with Luiza for over a year. It has been a real comfort knowing that our boy has enjoyed being at Luiza's, and really likes her family as well who have made him feel welcome, loved and part of the family. Our boy isnt a great eater at home but with luiza she has offered a variety of food and helped develop his eating issues with alot of patience and he always ate very well with her! He is obviously more well behaved with her than with us but I think I wouldnt have been able to teach him as many things as Luiza has, such as manners, potty training, listening skills etc. Luiza has lots of toys that Arlo likes playing with and she takes him to different playgroups and park outings. Highly recommend Luiza, she is very experienced in looking after and developing children. She is very dedicated and passionate. We would still continue with Luiza if my work contract hadnt ended! We are very sad to have let her go!

I would not hesitate to recommend Luiza to any family. She looked after my twin girls, from when they were 13 months old, but during that tricky time of returning to work and the following months I saw the girls make significant developmental progress and my girls were always happy to go to her. As a mum herself of older children, she was also able to give me so much advice and support, that I was able to return to work confident that I was leaving the girls in the best possible care.
Luiza has a loving family, with amazing kids, which I think is testament to how she looks after the children she cares for. The girls loved her and her family from the start and we had little difficulty settling the girls as she is so caring. Luiza built on and helped develop the girls daily routine. Her home, is the main setting where she looks after the children, and it is expansive and not limited to a front room. There are lots of toys and stimulus to entertain them during the day. She takes the children to daily play groups and has a strong network of other nannies and childminders to arrange afternoon play dates. The meals she made looked healthy and nutritious and I've stolen tips and ideas from her of what to cook them. She provided great communication about what the girls had been up to. We also found her very professional, motivated and organised and therefore all the paperwork was in order and she followed the guidance available about encouraging our girls development.
Overall I think that Luiza is an amazing childminder as she is just great with kids, she only has a limited number of children so it felt like she provided individual care, she is really experienced as she has her own older children and she just felt like she was part of the family from the beginning as she is so kind and caring.
We were very sad that Luiza couldn't come with us when we moved to our new home.
