My Summary
About Me
Hi, my name is Meeta, and I have been a childminder for the last 10 years. I’m married to a wonderful man, and have a gorgeous daughter who is in her last year of university.
My last OFSTED inspection was in March 2019, and I maintained a Good grade.
My house is clean, open-plan and airy, and a non-smoking, non-drinking, pet free household.
Children in my care will be loved and taken care of, in a home to home environment.
My daily routine would consist of an outing in the morning. This could be to the children’s centre, playgroup, library, farm, park, soft play area, etc.
When we are at home, there will be plenty of reading, singing, rhymes, music time, puzzles, messy play, water play, and other activities to suit each individual child and their interests. I understand that each child is different and have their own interests, and this will be encouraged. I also have a lovely child friendly garden where we have picnics, skipping, and plant in the summer, etc.
As a childminder, I follow EYFS guidelines and ensure that each child has the best outcome.
I live off the A217. There is easy access to Sutton, various buses to Morden (Northern Line) and a Tramlink to Mitcham. The parking is also free on my road.
Thank you for looking at my profile. If you would like to know more about me, please send me an email or phone me. Thank you very much.
My Experience
Previously worked in a children’s centre.
I have been a registered childminder since March 2011, and I enjoy it a lot, especially when I see a child’s development from a baby to preparing them for school; making them confident and ready for their next step.
I have got my own car and have been driving since I was eighteen.

I have been leaving my two children with her since we came here to London one year ago and I have to say she is more than a childminder, we feel as a little family. I couldn't have asked for a better person to take care of my children, as she is extremely kind and smily! on top of that the rates are really cheap bearing in mind other childminders around the area, so I extremely recommend her. Thanks a lot for all the love you have offered us!

I am a mum of two, boy and girl, aged 2yrs 4 months (boy) and 1 yr (girl)
Meeta looked after my boy from when he was 8months and when my girl turned 8 months, I put her under her care too for a number of hours a day for both.
I am glad to say, I was always at peace knowing they were looked after, fed, cleaned etc.... No worries
Firstly, Meeta is very personable, approachable and it showed too in the way my little boy related to her. He is now in Nursery yet every so often he'll say 'Go to Meeta House mommy' :-)
As a first mum, she made the process of childminding easy for me and made me at ease, I told her of my little ones routine from when they wake, bed times, feeding etc so she knew them through and through rather than just 'wonder' and do it in a way to 'Suit' her.
I recommend you give her a try, she's ever so flexible!! Even odd times when I needed 'Night' times. She does weekends too......
& finally, when her only child 'daughter' who's in high school is around she such a Delight with the young ones, friendly and helpful and interested in them all!
& most importantly her rates are very good!!
Once you use Meeta, you wont want to change -
Best wishes

I'm very happy to have Meeta as my childminder. I know that my one year daughter is safe and looked after. They threat her like family. You cant ask for more.
And I can see when Im picking her up that she enjoyed day with Meeta.
I would like to recommend Meeta and her service.
We are very happy with her.

I have been looking after Magda since she was 9 months old. Within that time I have watched her grow. I can't wait to see her grow up with me.
We love her so much and it is a pleasure looking after her and having her in our house.
