We couldn’t be happier with the care Renata provides for our twin daughters since June 2024.
From day one, she has been incredibly warm, professional and attentive to every detail of their routine and development.
Renata creates a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment where our girls feel genuinely happy and secure.
Her home is always clean, well-organized and filled with creative activities that support their learning and social skills.
It’s clear she truly cares for each child as an individual.
She communicates with us daily, keeping us informed with updates and photos, which we really appreciate. Knowing they are with someone so reliable and loving gives us great peace of mind while we’re at work.
We are very grateful to have found Renata and we highly recommend her to any parent looking for high-quality childcare.

Dear Monica,
Thank you so much for your kind words and glowing review! I’m truly touched to hear how much your kids enjoy coming to daycare and how much they’ve learned and grown during their time here.
It’s incredibly rewarding to know that the activities, outings, and lessons are making a positive impact and keeping them engaged. Creating a space where children feel excited, safe, and inspired to learn is always my goal, and I’m so happy to hear that it’s felt by your family.
Thank you again for your support and trust—it’s been a joy working with your wonderful family!
Warmly,
Renata
Renata is without exception great with our daughter. She will go over and beyond to ensure a safe, welcoming and calming place for all the children. We especially love seeing the pictures she shares of our daughter attending museums, parks and petting farms. We are truly lucky to have her and entrust her with the wellbeing of our child, who she has looked after from 18 months. We can't wait for our baby to attend her setting very soon because we know they will be well looked after.

We adore Renata, she is a super star, our boy started to see her when he was a year old and we want a small and well care place with all the certificate in place and Renata ticks all the box.
Always good report and a lot of pictures of all the fun activity outdoor and indoor the kids where doing. with total privacy on showing only our kid.
The food was very important for us and Renata go beyond by making own fresh food everyday.
Our boy still talk about the time spend with Renata, now he is at school but still go time to time and he love it.
Thank you Renata.

We’ve had Renata as our two daughters’ childminder since 2019, and we are extremely happy with her and the care she provides to our girls. She is always kind, friendly and professional. We can be fully confident and happy at our daily work, because we know our girls are in such good hands and they are very fond of her. She provides good and healthy homemade food, lots of activities, play and miniadventures. She is absolutely lovely and caring person, we will always be very grateful to have had her in our daughters’ daily lives and being their childminder.

We are extremely happy we choose Renata as our son’s career, this was our first experience with childcare, and he was just little (12month) we were nervous to go back to work. Renata made transition absolutely flawless, my little boy always was and still is welcoming her with big smile, hug and excitement! He absolutely adores her, as much also myself and she has become part of family!
She’s very accommodating, calm and patience in her very relaxing environment. We always receive detailed updates and handovers so we are always in the know, of all creative activities, singing and dancing to walks in nature. Great way to learn through play!
All homemade food, absolutely wonderful and lots of healthy snacks.
My son have moved into school now, but he still pop for the odd inset day, and absolutely love it!
Thank you so much Renata, we are FOREVER Grateful!
