Pav is one of the kindest, most patient and positive people we have come to know. She has looked after both of our girls as a child minder and provided them with a warm and fun home from home experience.

She puts a lot of thought and love into her craft and other activities with the children, into her food and into the little excursions she organises for the younger children who are there for full days (no one is ever bored).

As well as a beautiful home, she has a lovely garden which her mindees adore.

Her love for nature and creativity, and the fun and educational activities she engages the children in, are reflected in how our little ones live their time there and their growing confidence with and connection to arts/crafts and the natural world.

My 6 year old is still having time each week with Pav (though she's in year 2 now) as Pav's grounding influence has been amazing for her, and our daughter says it's the most fun she has all week! :)

I am so grateful we found Pav!

Pav has looked after our six-year-old daughter for the past five years and from the very beginning, we knew we had found a truly special childminder. Pav is incredibly patient, kind, nurturing and fun - our daughter was very quick to settle at her home and she still loves going to this day (after school). The activities and outings are always very creative, and include lots of outdoor fun, plus she cooks amazing and healthy food. I really cannot recommend Pav highly enough - we feel so lucky that our daughter has been in her care and we have all loved getting to know Pav and her lovely family.

Pav has been a blessing for our 4YO daughter who has been with Pav for over a year now. Pav has such a positive, kind and caring approach to looking after all the children that she cares for on a daily basis. We feel safe and secure that our daughter is having a wonderful day regardless of the weather. Pav shares a weekly food menu in advance with delicious and nutritious options and was helpful even when our daughter was a fussy eater. Pav always has fun trips and learning adventures planned for the kids ensuring they develop mental and social skills. We especially love the daily photos shared showing us what they were up to during the day. If you are lucky to get a spot for your child with Pav you won't regret it.

PavlinaB is the best childminder you could wish for! She has been our childminder for our two children (now 3 and 5) for the past two years. My son is with her three days a week and she collects my daughter three days a week after school, having previously been with Pav during the day, before she started school last September. Both our children absolutely love going to Pav’s setting and both of them settled immediately when they first started with her. I really can’t recommend Pav highly enough. She is nurturing, caring and supports the children’s development and learning in so many ways. She takes time to create and set up interesting, varied and fun activities for the children when at home and they also benefit from various outings to national trust locations, local parks and other trips. She also takes them to various other activities such as boppin’ tots and mini explorers. Pav prepares a healthy nutritious menu for the week which the kids always enjoy. We are so lucky to have Pav in our lives and will be forever grateful that our children have benefited from spending time with her during their early years.
