Average Rating: 5 stars (5 from 8 reviews)

Going back to work after maternity leave was so difficult but the moment I met both Gigi and Ioana I knew the one thing I didn’t have to worry about was leaving my daughter in their care. They have created a loving, supportive and stimulating environment which clearly comes from years of experience and a genuine passion for their job.

The playroom is spacious and filled to the brim with activities and a safe place to play. It opens directly into the garden which is especially great in the summer, allowing the children space to be outside and explore. One element that I had underestimated, but that has been so incredible, is that they provide messy-play clothes for the children to wear while they are there. This means that I can drop my daughter off without having to worry about packing spare items of clothes and it takes some of the never ending laundry off of my plate!

Gigi and Ioana also send daily updates which include pictures and what they have been up to which has quickly become one of my favourite times of day. I always enjoy hearing about the amazing meals that Ioana prepares which has undoubtedly helped with my daughter’s ease at exploring different flavours and textures with foods.

My daughter loves them just as much as they clearly love her, and I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have found them!

Ioana is a wonderful childminder for our son. She is caring, warm and our son absolutely loves her. They play a range of games and activities at her house and in the garden.
Leaving your child with someone new is always going to be difficulty but we have always felt assured that Luca is in a place that is an extension of home to him. We love the daily updates, pictures and often find ourselves jealous of the meals he gets!

We would definitely recommend her to others looking.

We couldn't be happier with Iona and Gigi. Finding childcare for our 9-month-old daughter was daunting, but they made the transition so smooth.

At first, our daughter struggled a bit with the new routine, but Iona and Gigi were incredibly patient and understanding. Now, Maria practically goes in every morning, waving and smiling.

Iona and Gigi have a fantastic set-up, with plenty of stimulating toys and resources for her to explore. The lovely garden is a huge bonus too! It's clear how much they care about the children's well-being. She's super attentive to Maria's needs and ensures she has healthy, delicious meals.

We also love the daily updates!The pictures, videos, and notes  let us see Maria's day-to-day activities. It gives us such peace of mind knowing she's happy and thriving.

Most importantly, Iona always welcomes Maria with a warm smile. We can't thank them enough for the amazing care they provide!
Highly recommend!

Gigi was our amazing nanny for seven wonderful years, and now she's taken that magic to her nursery, creating a space where learning is fun and encouraged. Gigi's personal touch and passion for each child shines through. We're so proud of her and grateful for the joy she brought to our family and now to the community through her fantastic nursery.

Ioana and Gigi are an incredible duo of childminders who bring professionalism and a genuine love for children into their work. Their warm and friendly approach creates an environment where children feel safe and valued. Their dedication to providing top-notch care is truly admirable. I would highly recommend Ioana and Gigi for their amazing skills and heartfelt passion for fostering children's growth and happiness. They both have incredible experiences when it comes to working with children and they apply child lead approach to engage with children off all ages.

Dear Lenka, We greatly appreciate your kind words and recognition of our child-centered approach. It is our utmost priority to support each child's individual development without rushing or pressuring them. Your support as parents/caregivers means a lot to us and reinforces our commitment to providing the best possible care. Thank you sincerely for your encouragement.

Ioana and Giorgiana took care of my girl since she was 3 months old. As a new mum I was very worried and anxious, but I soon realised these two knew a lot more than I did and that my child was in good, experienced hands. I used their services even after my girl started school, on half terms and summer holidays. Very happy with them, would recommend them 100%.

Thank you, Teo. It truly warms our hearts to see that even after all these years, there are still people we have crossed paths with, who are willing to offer their help and support. We are grateful for your kind words and for having faith in us.

Ioana looked after my twins for three and a half years and I can’t say enough about how wonderful she was. She has fantastic knowledge of child development and age-appropriate activities. She cooked great good and encouraged my boys to try new foods and eat healthily. She treated my children like her own - so caring, gentle but firm, generous with her time and attention. My boys were so happy with her and became more confident and outgoing due to her encouragement and approach. I highly recommend her (and her sister, who we have got to know as well!) to anyone looking for loving, well organised and devoted childminders.

Ioana is not only incredible with the children in her care, but is always up for helping out other and sharing her expertise with others.
The kids in her care are always well looked after, happy and polite and it's lovely to see how much she genuinely loves and supports their development.
