Reviews
Below are the latest reviews for Shaz. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk users and not of Childcare.co.uk. Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
Sharon (Shaz), alongside her co-childminder Becky, looked after our two girls at Dreams from before they were 1 right through to 4, when they started school. Our girls had a wonderful time at Dreams and the start that Sharon has given them positioned them perfectly throughout their early years and for starting school. She played a huge part in their development, from fine motor skills when they were little to interpersonal skills and making friends as they grew older. She fosters a kind and caring environment that meant our girls absolutely loved going to Dreams each day. Sharon goes beyond what many other childcare settings provide and we feel lucky to have so many keepsakes that were sent home so that we can remember what our girls were like at this age - priceless as they grow up!
Above all we’re proud of how kind, confident, curious and fun (with a healthy dose of cheekiness) our girls have become as they’ve grown, and much of this is down to the girls’ time with Sharon and Becky. We would wholeheartedly recommend Sharon and Dreams to anyone looking for a warm, professional and caring environment for their child.

Becky & Sharon go above and beyond for their dreamers making sure each day is fun but educational. They have little visits and fun walks, baking and so much more I couldn’t list. The little trinkets and thoughtful gifts are something else, you can tell they adore each and everyone of the little dreamers. The updates throughout the days & pictures make me smile while I’m working!
I remember the day I dropped off my daughter for her first day at 10 months old, walking to the door with tears in my eyes and being unable to speak, the little poem I was given and told to read at home with a box of tissues cemented my decision that I had chosen wisely with Becky & Sharon.

Becky & Sharon are amazing!
My little boy loved attending & is looking forward to returning in April! & his baby brother is due to start in Sept.
Would not trust anybody else to care for our boys!
They get the older sibling involved too 🥰 and love & care for the children like they are family! ❤️

Shaz combines unconditional love for the children with a passion for developing and nurturing them with her special flair for arts and crafts. We are consistently impressed with the range of activities. Our son is always excited to spend time with his Dreams family

Sharon is simply wonderful and she brought my daughter on brilliantly. Sharon would often give me helpful pointers which would help and assist me with things like getting her talking, doing things independently and down to complex things such as potty training! Sharon is very approachable & her ability to “pretend play” is phenomenal. My daughter loved playing with her, wether it be cafes, or babies, sharon was brilliant at communicating and helping and egging my daughter to do things independently. I love how passionate sharon is, others will know how at christmas, halloween, easter and everything in between the children used to come home with little keepsakes and beautifully personalised art work, the effort sharon puts in is outstanding!! I loved reading about all her developments and I was always kept upto date with milestones reached ect. The playroom is always wonderfully set out and toys are frequently rotated to support the children’s learning! Very good, Would defo recommend!!
